p.s. Hey. Happy Halloween! ** Steevee, Hi. Tentative celebrations on your good night of sleep. May it be an omen. Well, on the WA thing, I think people (and I’m not talking about you) who think that, when they personally believe in something that adheres to a generalized politically correct dictate of what’s okay or not okay, their belief is automatically rendered into something legitimate and factual that they can wield over others like a law and, as far as Woody Allen’s marriage goes, who get all moralistic and pass judgement on the love lives of people they don’t know in the slightest and who think the content and thematics of artists’ work can be used as evidence re: who those artists are and what they do in their lives are the reason why the saying ‘Get a fucking life’ was invented. And I personally don’t see anything ‘tone deaf’ about Allen continuing to explore something that obviously interests him in his work. If his doing that makes people who have a moral problem with intergenerational relationships queasy or if it tires people who aren’t interested in that subject matter or if it bugs people who think he has some obligation to take their suspicions about him into account, that’s their problem. In a nutshell. ** The Dreadful Flying Glove, Hi, Glove. Ha ha. The Hecker concert was immense. He had this trippy set up whereby this giant lighting rig was lowered onto the stage and smothered in fog and fastened with many variously directed led spotlights that performed this kind of complicated light show while he played, and it was really something, musically and visually. If that reads imagistically at all. Okay, yeah, I must have heard from you when you were on a UK visit and guessed incorrectly that you had shifted homes. Wow, I’m super excited by your description of what you’re doing. The constellation I’m imagining you controlling and figuring out is really exciting. It makes me want to figure out how to write a novel that has what you’re doing in its belly. Thank you a lot for that. Sweetness. ** Thomas Moronic, Hi, T. Ah, superbly reactive and transfigured material mashing into a state wherein your exquisite digestion turns out powerhouse after powerhouse. How do you do that? I know it’s just me, but celebrating Halloween in a gay bar just sounds so depressingly scarcely unusual or something. Did you find a horror film? That is really sweet and fantastic about your books being in the queer studies curriculum! That’s beautiful of whoever is in charge. My weekend was pretty quiet other than the Tim Hecker concert, which was incredible. (see description to TDFG). Just this and this. Work and time filling. Fine. No big. ** David Ehrenstein, Hi, David. I do like the avant-garde approach the slaves take to flirting. That makes horrible sense about black cats in the shelters. People can be so destructively boring. ** H, Hi. Thank you on behalf of Kristen about the art show. And cool about the Watkins film. I should do a post about his work. Hm, I’ll try to get on that. Thank you for the kind words. The Tim Hecker concert was very, very good. Highly recommended if he comes through your town. ** Puddentane, Hey! Wow, I accidentally nailed it? What were the odds of that? I’m very happy about that swift and happy outcome. I hope you like the book. And thank you for the video. It works wonders. Please come back any old time and whenever you like please. ** Dóra Grőber, Hi! That division is weird and kind of illogical-seeming. I think we’ll send the finished video to him today if we can polish it off by nightfall. Hopefully, he’ll like it. He gave us complete freedom, and hopefully he won’t regret that, ha ha. The Hecker concert was fantastic. Amazing visual presentation too. If his tour takes him to you, you should go, if you can. My weekend was okay. Didn’t get as much work done as we’d planned for various reasons, so I think I’ll spend Halloween getting that delayed work done, which is fine. Are you looking forward to your party tonight? What was it like? ** Hyperbolic_plain, Hi, there. Whoa, it has been a while. Good to see you. Holy shit, that was you who said hi at the Hecker concert? I loved the show. It was a mind blow, no? Why are you in Paris? Are you living here or something? Want to get a coffee? Huh, really nice to see you the other night albeit briefly, and here too. ** Bill, Hi, B. Specific and cryptic is the best combination, no? Thanks about the art show. Did you see ‘RB’ big? Did Halloween have a specific yet cryptic impact on your day today? ** James Nulick, Hi, James! Yay, you checked in from Tokyo! Please do snap some pix at the Shibuya Halloween fest. Ah, you’re so lucky! Is not Tokyo like the ultmate boyfriend-shaped city? I miss it so. Great that you and Paul got to join forces. Tonight is not looking too Halloweeny. Possibly go to Paris’s only haunted house attraction, but I think it’ll be too crowded. Remote chance I might go see Dinosaur Jr. and Thurston Moore play tonight, but I’m not sure. Not sure, long story short. Enjoy every second of your last glorious days in the biggest T, man. Love, me. ** Jamie McMorrow, Hi, Jamie! I hope Halloween gives you a bear hug. My weekend wasn’t too newsworthy other than the great Tim Hecker show, but I was cool with it. The video isn’t done, but we still have today, and I think doing that will constitute today. Right, wtf about the stingy outlet thing. Minimalism/suaveness gone mad. Ooh, I’m going to google Jennifer West. I love the sound of that show, no surprise. Cool you caught that comment on the slave profile. I thought it was the post’s sleeper hit. What about Halloween? Any related plans or any theoretically scary fun? Love carved like a pumpkin, Dennis. ** Mavado, Hi! Welcome! Well, I’m very happy and honored to have provided inspiration for your work. Thank you for saying that. How can I see your comixx? Please come back anytime, and Happy Halloween. ** _Black_Acrylic, Hi, Ben. Awesome, thank you so much for starting on the post! I’m glad the Wiseman film lived up to your hopes. And thank you for the cogent Halloween tune. It’s put me squarely in the mood.Now we’ll see if Paris can follow up. ** Misanthrope, Well, I think the only logical answer to your question is that Jeff Seid is moonlighting as a slave. That has to be it. No other explanation makes any sense at all. It’s true that food outlets do use bread as an exaggeration sometimes. It’s very disrespecful to bread. And I guess to customers too. Happy if my query re: your writing ends up being a influential nag, obviously. You must be doing something special of your own invention on Halloween, surely? What was it? ** Sypha, Hi, James. I’ve been wondering where you were and how you are. I thought maybe the blahness of the new Lady Gaga album threw you into a depression or something. Like I said to Misa, clearly the fact of the matter must be that Jeff Seid sneaks around in dungeons when he’s not doing whatever it is that makes him famous enough for you guys to recognize him. I have heard about the Voynich Manuscript, yes. But, naturally, knowing about it is the totality of my reference so far. But I will check out the story re: that new facsimile book. Thank you. What are your and Halloween’s plans for this evening? ** Okay. I made a Halloween gif work for Zac and for everyone else within sight of these words. May it add something or other to your holiday. See you tomorrow.
