tall, evil brunette. very powerful. only on here intermittently for the next while, so email me if you need me
I also get so nervous watching cooking scenes where the actors have bad knife skills, worse than the characters are supposed to have. To me this is scarier than any horror movie.

When I first moved here I thought the rent was cheap for the obvious reason, but it turns out to be a very expensive area, in part because we are so close to the beach. My rent is actually cheap because my landlord is a strange guy who does not seem to care that much about making money.
I'd say that the other exception is "three blocks away from an oil refinery that exploded last October" but to be frank my feelings are not entirely negative: I can very easily walk to the beach from my apartment--my favorite ocean, no less--and I will never be able to afford that again in my life.

I have in my life only ever met one person who seemed likely to achieve sainthood, enlightenment, whatever you would call a state of real spiritual transcendence. In her religion, it would be sainthood. And I found her very difficult to talk to or be around, despite my (kinda abstract) admiration.

I wouldn't describe my writing. That's what the writing is for.

I don't trust people to "have sense" about things if they aren't ambivalent about where they live, except for people who live in Mexico City. When people in CDMX start busting out the "best city in the world" talk I'm like, Yeah, maybe. Definitely in North America.

heartbreaking: in the interview sections of IRON CHEF: THE OFFICIAL BOOK, all four iron chefs complain about the outfits. They thought it was demeaning.

I think beedrill should be a better pokemon than it is if only because a meter tall wasp with drills for hands should by all rights be one of the scariest animals around

I think about the part of MINIMA MORALIA where Adorno says that slippers "are monuments to the hatred of bending down" literally every single time I put slippers on, which is to say most days.

long time tomatoheads will remember that I live three blocks away from an oil refinery that exploded last october. Well, I recently learned that my apartment building used to be barracks for refinery workers. Learning this explained a lot about my apartment building.

yo they've got drafts now? that's nice. that'll make me seem considerably less deranged. I hope they add polls next, which will make me seem more deranged. It all comes out in the wash

If I solved the Lament Configuration, those demons would just leave me alone I think. I'd be like, "It's very nice of you to offer, but this really isn't my thing. I wouldn't have a good time. Thank you, though." And Pinhead would say, "That's okay, Lonnie. Thank you for being open minded about it."

kinda unreal how well this went. people really responded to the paper intellectually, aesthetically, also a few of them emotionally. wound up fielding questions for like 45 minutes, really eating into seminar time for other things. One of the real pleasures of grad school, to be read actively & well
I'm ending a midterm paper mid-sentence

hello new followers. I promise that I have at least one interest other than ULYSSES, poetry, and psychedelic rock from 1960s Cambodia. But I will never explain myself to anybody and so you will just have to figure out what my deal is on your own.
