- Got an ADA-friendly apartment 2 minutes' walk from work. I live in Portland. As a crippled bouncer, I have been trying to do this since 2000. Phase 2 locked down presently. Still in a bit of shock. There are a lot of dire things going on. A lot of good ones, too. Downtown is someplace where I thrive
- BBC Sessions album. Absolute Goth Church. They should have put "Lagartija Nick" on there, too, so complex and disturbing in the same way the rest of these are. David J is the seventh best human alive. Told me he dug my passion. <3
- *The MF who co-wrote "The Passion of Lovers" told me he dug my passion, hearing me read some of the really superheroey parts of I AM LESION. That is so many Goth points I should have other, smaller Goths orbiting me and bringing me clove cigarettes
- THIS IS METAL AS FUCK. Time to listen to early Iron Maiden \m/
- \m/ FOR IT IS A HUMAN NUMBER... www.youtube.com/watch?v=9646...
- I had a rewrite of this from Maiden Tribute Night at a venue or two. "IT'S FIVE O'CLOCK. I'M ON AT 6. I'M SCANNING TICKETS AT 6:66. WHAT DID I SEE? CAAAAN I BELIEEEVE...THE GUY I JUST THREW OUT IS COMING BACK TOWARD ME.." \m/
- Tfw the writing says so much that I need to carry the work around with me every morning, every night, every worst time of my life. Half done with WAY OF THE GATE, a dedicated work of Martial Philosophy drawn from 25 years of bouncing drunks. And going up on the mountain to meet Buddha. Amituofo.
- It has taken several years of study in the writing, on top of the study inherent in the work. One entire year of those was spent digesting Musashi Miyamoto's BOOK OF FIVE RINGS. There is a whole slathering mashed potato bowl full of Tsunetomo's BOOK OF HIDDEN LEAVES/ Way of The Samurai, and more
- Everything. It's got a whole Power of Myth in it, lol. Androcles and the Lion. Krishna and the Stonecutter. Shaolin vs. The Living Dead.. 💘
- "The monks did not kill the dead people outright,but held a more curious technique.They lopped off their hands,stitched their jaws shut with wire,and returned them to the mountains,to be dispatched by wolves,or others of their kind. The wolves touched not the dead meat when it was slain.."
- Richard Spencer 2.0 gets his shit pushed in by a bunch of junior-high-school kids www.instagram.com/reels/DUS-0s...
- Today, I am jealous of the idea. www.thesmokinggun.com/documents/bi...
