December/Update: Twitter's bullshit, loneliness-inspired crime and Space Billboards in 2024....

 Social media's experiencing plenty of growing pains to anyone paying attention. Evidently, needy/community-seeking racists can disparage however many niggers, bitches, and mathematicians as they please so long as it's in tastefully circumnavigating language...yet if I make a darkly humorous reference to suicide to another user of the platform I routinely follow -- in addition to equally humorously offensive references and responses in the past -- I'm therefore creating an uncomfortable environment to anyone who just happens along my profile and reads said comment. Yuh-huh. 

I'll be here and on YouTube and walking and driving around if anyone cares to reach out directly. 

Or if you're really off your socially-acceptable rocker you can feel free to text me at 914 538 0260. 

Unless you're a talking cup of coffee. In which case, I assume you're the one sending all those psychic messages without the luxury of Space Billboards, which I'm thinking aren't a thing yet in 2024.

The Death of Nathan Rueben (Vulnerability)  They moved into the state of Michigan in pairs, in groups of three or larger or significantly larger (less than 5% total of their estimated number arriving by themselves) from the earliest hours of the day of the event, arriving in personal transportation as varied as 2021 Forde Cavaliers and Polaris Sonatas to 1999 Harkomhans and similarly antiquated vehicles and more than a few (less than a thousand) bicycles, motorcycles and choppers traversing the border with busses and with trains from places as far-removed as Utah and Arizona and as local as Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, arriving with such staggering consistency as to suggest Rueben's funeral not only contained a psychological weight for each of them in their hearts, in their souls, but that every man, woman and child to the last were implanted with some indominable, irresistible magnet that demanded without exception for their presence and regardless of political or philosophical ...

Cashier Hassle

Inside my 2nd least-favorite gas station,  for the moment, I just need a pack of cigarettes.  But this overexcited foreigner  is determined  to get on my "good side."  He keeps asking me how work  is going  like I've brought it up before  or he and I have things in common  or he's not one of countless people  doomscrolling my browser history.  I get my cigarettes (and all the  change this time!) and while  this moron presses his empty  luck through regurgitated small  talk, I tell him how unconvinced  I am and remember to go  somewhere else next time.   ****

The Only Bad Thing That Ever Happened (complete)

  1.  Feet slung into the air of the living room, bones drunk on equanimity, beer gracefully in hand, God knew something he didn't say. His furry mouth, sweat soaked, the breath like chewed green grapes, and his eyes closed, he would have practically no earthly basis of reason why his life then was to become undone then. Clear-drunk, the high that seems to ease not merely the possibility of damage received, but the fact it had ever been. Warm confidence and purpose in his happy gut, gentle love streaming through his veins, arteries, nerves. Every cell within purged of the trespasses and defilements that he'd been charged with during the centuries and millennia of his strange, agile, balanced and unbalanced existence.  The Great City steamed in the abbreviated winter, sparsely occupied subways more like runaway dogs unguided in their destinations than transporters of any sort of person at all.  The television in God's living room played an ad "paid...
