Ray's Thought for the Day - Alienation
We have some technical difficulties arising from some lost technology, but Lomo has been authorized to work on that situation and we will have some replacement technology in place anon, maybe. Or, the Crumby Ovate lost the electric cord to the camera and Lomo has to go somewhere and get a new one, which he can do, maybe, because the Sunday Blue Laws are dead in the water, in these parts, generally speaking, and also because Druids don't consider buying an electric cord, work, and also because we don't associate Sunday with any particular religious significance.
Or perhaps we do. Actually, we remember when the Christians sustained Sundays as a day of rest, but devoted to their religion and in much of these parts they had sufficient influence to tame the Demon Commerce for one day a week, except for a tiny minority of Christians afflicted by the Demon Rum who took the opportunity to visit their bootlegger. So, in general, our reflections on those times in that respect are favorable and we have the Christians to thank for that much on Sunday, and we do thank them.
Druids though, work for the WG, 24/7, except for those instances when we are alienated, maybe. Remember when Red was working for King Conchubur during the times of one of Red's previous iterations. He was a consultant to the king, or actually he was an assistant consultant to the king in the sense that he was workin' for the Druid Cathub who was Conchubur's main Druid (Red remembers, 6-25-'05). Remember those Druids were working slowly or not at all, fer Conchubur. Why? Easy that. Conchubur was asking them to help him do stuff that was hateful to the WG. So Red and those other Druids were alienated from their work.
Are you ever compelled to do stuff you know is wrong and you find yerself working slowly or not all? Cheer up! Perhaps yer a Druid!
So the upside of working slowly or not at all is that yer still workin' for the WG 24/7. The down side is that yer bein' sublimated or desublimated while yer aworkin'. The goal is to work 24/7 and never be tired and always feel good about what yer doin', even when yer asleep. This is what is meant by the spell:
"No rest for the wicked, and the righteous don't need it!"
