@WAStateBar "One artist is always worth more than three mechanics." - James B. Donovan, Strangers On a Bridge. I'm already worth more than the Washington state budget to @Boeing executive management and 737 Program engineers. Inflation.🤷 Screw your bar numbers. https://t.co/d28L1o8bDt

@chaput_jennifer @pixietrue My expert witness testimony in that triple homicide is four clicks away for you: 1️⃣ my profile page 2️⃣ my @cargocollective portfolio 3️⃣ poster design timelining significant dates and intro to psychoanalyst Jung's synchronicity theory 4️⃣ my #SystemFail analysis @wordpressdotcom

Taking a break from Ulysses to read The Secret History of Moscow, which could as well be set in Moscow, Idaho, got distracted by all the cats 💗, which may well be how James Joyce intended his work to be read, intermingled with women's writing: https://t.co/CGwXn4q0sN

Out of stock

Coming across mention of Arthur Kleinman in @yale Anne Fadiman's 💗 The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down 💗 and he sounds like one of the rare emotionally intelligent psychiatrists: https://t.co/xKjZoRPZhB

Let's see if I can solve this one: two or three things I know for sure, to reference @GoldinAgency-represented, @penguinrandom-published writer Dorothy Allison, who gave me the courage to write about just that, corroborating my memory with digital files: https://t.co/A1fIYL81FP

@xuemanzi8848 Leonard Shlain's Art & Physics. What you call books for entertainment I call "potato chip book" because you only mean to read a few chapters and before you know it the whole book is gone… Maybe John Burnett's spy novels set in Thailand?

Staying up late to finish @susanorlean's The Library Book that I found in a @LtlFreeLibrary. I've made so many scribbles in the margins, I might have to burn this copy when I'm done. 🔥📖

@michaelbierut @TheAtlantic @mendelsund Looks like Peter Mendelsund wisely bailed from this platform awhile back. I miss his presence, but am reluctant to join the Metaverse. I'm finally reading Ulysses, but @OxUniPress version, and I like his cover better: https://t.co/PPo4NtNvpA

That's enough digital media for tonight. I'm returning to analogue stories. I'm in the midst of rereading Milan Kundera's The Book of Laughter and Forgetting, and I'm really excited, because I think this might be the story I've been trying to remember for some 20 years…
