Yeah, I am coming. *Threatening*

Quarterly existence post.

Hello. It's June.

Now's the time of year to look dour, but in shorts.

One of my favorite discoveries of this year has been seeing Ken Russell's The Boy Friend (1971). Experiencing movies for the first time is great, but some films feel special. As though you were meant to find them. It's charming, funny, dreamy, and visually gorgeous. Has stayed in my mind since.

Apropos of nothing, I haven't been in touch with anyone from high school in close to 20 years. Which means my whereabouts are a complete mystery. That's if I'm even thought of. There could be a rumor I'm dead and I wouldn't know. That thought is more gratifying to me than the potential to reconnect.

Friend: "He likes sweet, shy, nice guys. Like you, actually." Me: "Oh no, no. I am polite. I am not nice. There's a difference."

Hello from my late 30s.

What a film. No answers to any questions, just vibes.

Listening to foreboding music without the foreboding feeling. Likely because the pre-existing anxiety in my brain cancels it out. "We're all full here, thanks."

Four ride-or-dies across generations.

Some recent paintings. Been in a bit of a queer cowboy kick this week. Hoping to dismantle the Marlboro man.

Saturday Night Watch.

Chaos and madness reign after the storm and so my fieldwork has been cancelled for the day. Now I get to take myself to breakfast. With 80s era bleak Americana on the side.

Another place to haunt and lurk.
