the tube and the singularity

sometimes you have to earn money. you get a tube job, that is tube as in toothpaste. in this kind of thing you get squeezed out over time. by the end you are fully squeezed and maybe all bent up to get the last drop out of you. no dignity required or involved though former generations who did the same job were awash with dignity. now the opposite to this is the singularity (nothing to do with ray kurzweil). the singularity is a genuine one off, a raised finger would be the obvious thing to say but actually it is NOT a rebellion it is an act of contradictory alliance. things in opposition may be working together. facing the global as we do you can beat yourself trying to come up with universalisable ideas (democracy for all, free trade, stop global warming, stop war) or you could realise that all that has ended and now the only way to avoid being a tube, getting used up, is to create or be in singularities...
