We karen's respect the 'lived' essence of 'MEZ'. We karen's respect the 'lived' essence of 'Kathy (H)acker'.
We share freedom through dysfunction and remapping our cerebral functions. We combat the plague of pretend innovation. Man is a his-torical self-serving myth. Man is caged by his conservative drift. We will live in the present time. We wimmin are rehacking out of man's 'made' spaces. We will get out of time by switching to wimmin modes. We wimmin, and Karen's are the key out of limbo. Become a woman, be free, learn how true connection exists. This is a LOVE story...
