"Call me pig in shit. Happy.

She loves to cook. She used to love mowing lawns for the same reason. Nothing organizes, cleans my clock, clears my clutter more. Serve that goodness up in an orange bowl with a spoon."

I always feel better when I’m writing. But when I’m not writing it never really works to force it.

Revisited this last night for the first time since seeing it opening day at the Colony, Toledo, Ohio... I think I was 'spoiled' by Saturday Night Fever, Looking for Mr. Goodbar, this is more in the madcap vein of Car Wash, but, like that film, I was wrong. An era classic.

Ghost Letters at the Corner:
“In Shop” Ghost Sign (Sioux City, Nov 2025)

📷 Pentax K3 Mk III Monochrome

On the sun-worn brick of a narrow downtown corner, a faded “IN SHOP” drifts up from the past like a voice that forgot it was supposed to disappear. The alley beside it folds into shadow, a thin passage between eras, while the renovated window and the parked truck anchor the scene firmly in the present. It’s a quiet collision of time—old stone, old paint, new gloss—holding still in the morning light.

Dan Chiasson, with a poem for William Blake, who was born on this day in 1757
Blake A satellite sees into your heart. It is blind to the rest of the planet. Its giant eye stares all day at the one bull's-eye on its one target. It sees that your heart is sick. You're sick. All that it sees is the fact your heart, that once held endless joy, now sick, soon will "thy life destroy."

I've lived long enough for Village People to somehow "not be a gay band."

Saw them around this time in Cleveland at The Agora, dancing on scaffolding platforms kind of like a stripper's Hollywood Squares.

SECURING THE HOUSE What is it we are trying to achieve? That we will learn before we die to make our leaving orderly? Imagine turning down the heat and walking out, not even locking up, imagine coming back weeks later. Ah, the list of failures: unpaid bills, the missing jewellery, plant leaves browning on the window sills. And the dust. What of the dust?

“A recent study published in The Journal of Pediatrics adds yet another data point…finding that suicidality scores dropped significantly an average of two years and up to five years after patients received gender-affirming treatment.”

Gender affirming care helps save young trans lives. It’s simple.
Study In The Journal Of Pediatrics Finds Trans Youth Care Lowers Suicidality, Few Detransition
The groundbreaking study found that suicidality dropped for transgender youth receiving hormone therapy by nearly 70%, with only 7 patients of 432 discontinuing treatment.

On 24 Nov 1991, Freddie Mercury died from Aids related bronchial pneumonia. He was just 45. One month later, 'Bohemian Rhapsody' hit the No 1 spot in the UK singles chart, 16 years after after doing so for the 1st time, the 1st single ever to achieve this. #FreddieMercury

"I have held many jobs this lifetime. Most “volunteer,” as in either little to no monetary income (guaranteed, or otherwise), never a salary, or benefits ... The hope of something possibly “paying off” in the end.

Old school realness." #mylovelife
