Ive been watching livestreams of Bourbon St the past couple of nights. Not currently equipped for the stimulation, but watching from home is strangely soothing.

As a fellow “well, actually”, let us have a metaphor, Hank! We’re desperate for a little hope, that blind, dying, little beacon of light.

It’s exactly Tom Robbins dystopia, but I don’t have his knack for “joy in spite of everything.” How could we?

It’s a macrocosm of narcissistic abuse: This didn’t happen, and if it did, I didn’t mean it. It was a joke. You used to have a sense of humor. Are you ok? You seem unstable. Maybe I set the house on fire, but you drove me to it. Be grateful, I kept you warm. That never happened, and if it did…

To be clear, I’m certain this wasn’t an act of vandalism or theft.

Thank you for getting a screenshot of this. I saw it too and it’s so important we document this stuff before it’s “fixed,” as if it never happened.

Some specialty indy bookstores survive (i.e. new age/metaphysical) if you have one of those in your area, they almost certainly will be delighted to special order for you. (I speak as the former book buyer for one in ATL.)

I’ve been thinking about you having seen Tiktoks of the snow. I missed your IG, knowing you’d likely posted. I’m glad you shared this here. ❄️☃️

I fully believe the overnight shutdown was a stunt—more malicious than a stunt—but the ban itself was all of ‘em, fueled by Zuckerberg inciting fear in tech-illiterate Boomers, some of whom had well-timed, personal interest in Meta stock, among other nefarious things.

I appreciate your acknowledging that it is a real loss. Many of us found community there. It’s been a source of humanity and joy and education. I’m devastated and disconnected without it, but I know you’re right. This discussion is occurring there and plans for organizing elsewhere are being made.

Did you see Trump thanking Elon for his vote counting machines winning Pennsylvania? (video clip on my page)

I submit Alice Munro could stand alone as stunning proof of this. But, of course, there are and will be more.

I misread “run MSDNC” and thought he was picking a fight with the iconic hip-hop group from Hollis, Queens. Wake me up in 4 years.
