The word sh*t is related to the word schizophrenia, since the scheiss or skit portion means to cut off, as in clipping off a thing or dividing it with the muscles of the sphincter.
It could also mean sh*thead or sh*tmind.
Look for the many relevant lyrics in here:
Now, sh*t is associated with many things, it is generally dull and like dirt or mud, brown, visually boring, mundane, necessary, waste, but also polluting, smelly in an unpleasant way, and poisonous as well as dangerous to touch or ingest due to bacteria and risk of infection. If you let it in you are likely to have a bad response, same as if you keep it in.
We feel apart from sh*t, viewing it as the daily and essential Other most of all, what we are averse to which is formed and produced by us yet we happily divide from it and flush it far away and out of sight.
This world is itself Scheissen made of Scheissen. Not only do we feel apart from it as we walk attached to it, but we do everything we can to divide ourselves from it, the nature, the weather, the ground with shoes, the air with clothes. We view ourselves divided, yet would we choose anything else?
Oblivion, complete disability, or this sh*t. We choose Scheissen, the Schizophrenic mind of Apartness rather than Oblivion which is to ne One with the Other, Undivided, an impossibility to experience, thus leaving us with no option other than to accept Scheissen and Eat Sh*t and Die.
Some people kill themselves, because they think they can escape Scheissen and illogically hope that Oblivion can be experienced or something better or at least not as bad might await them. Now that is true hope and blind faith and utter stupidity. There is a chance they are right!
The people in hell, the big gaping excrement valley or toilet, even historically, besides metaphorically, which is us, would wish for escape, yet the only way is down and down is deeper. They also call hell “apartness from God” just like Scheissen means apartness or division or cutting off.
I can not eat excrement, eating excrement will cause death, like the fruit of the tree of knowing. Its funny humans seek to eat from it again, because there is nothing to know but Shit Is, and what is not shit, is responsible for what is.
The act of creation was generating Otherness or Apartness.
I have demonstrated for you using a scatological term that people are shy about and take for granted to explore all sorts of interesting and thought provoking aspects, and that is using shit in the best way possible, which is a multilayered statement as is this whole post!
12/05/2017 at 06:49 #19287Abjection, we are defined through negation (what we are not) and bodily excretions are the same as the way we individuate. A whole necessarily expressing separateness.
12/05/2017 at 07:22 #19290Can you tell me more about all that or write about it, with a particular focus on the necessary or necessarily part which is of the most interest to me! If possible, whenever you have the time.
12/05/2017 at 07:24 #19322Abject as a protection
It’s biological expression is one of nausea and disgust, anxiety and spasms. It protects us from what we loathe. We spit ourselves out. Food loathing is perhaps the best example of the abject. Jellied eels are a common delicacy in some London pubs, just watching others scoff and swallow those slimy, gross eels with a pint of lager makes me wretch and purge. When I can’t hide my repulsion from others, they seek to proffer the loathed food and I refuse. ‘I’ do not want to listen.’I’ refuse to assimilate it. ‘I’ expell it.
To each ego it’s object, to each superego, it’s abject.
A corpse is another way of understanding abjection, a corpse shows you the boundary of life itself, what we push aside in order to live.
This is negation as necessity.
12/05/2017 at 09:03 #19291That made me SO happy. That is exactly the sort of stuff and writing I would love to see more of regularly all over the website, really wonderful, thank you so much, it is the sort of thing that hit the right spot after so long.

So it received my first like, because I really liked it!12/05/2017 at 14:03 #19288The powers of horror is well worth a read by Julia Kristeva
12/05/2017 at 18:34 #19295Sounds like my kind of book and statement!
13/05/2017 at 18:09 #19289There’s an interesting part in the book where she talks about how Indian people shit on the beach and bury it in order to demonstrate how the abject is the unspoken and yet, we are aware of it being there.
13/05/2017 at 19:07 #19296Wow! It would be especially funny if they didn’t realize the whole beach was sh*t and covered sh*t with sh*t, just sh*t they make a distinction regarding:
Thus Distinction Acts as Purifying Substances, and all purification is wholly symbolic like justice.
