Flit and Misanthrope present ... 오늘 미치GO (づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ *(((POP)))* Or The Acoustic Twink VS. Lil Gi' Had. Part 1

*

p.s. Hey. So, as you have already seen, we have an amazing-plus Day going on here, courtesy of those twin towers of d.l.-dom, Flit and Misanthrope. And it's only Part 1! (Part 2 will arrive an exact week from now). Technically, if it matters and/or is of interest, what you saw/see up there is a close relative of Sypha's already legendary Poptimism gig of a short while back. And ... I don't know what else to say apart from wishing and expecting for you to have an extremely awesome bordering on perfect time! Thank you from the bottom (?) of my heart, Flit and Misanthrope! ** Liquoredgoat, Hi, Douglas. Paul McCarthy is to Xmas what LA is to the Halloween spooky house. The Master. The Walt Anti-Disney. Absolutely. ** David Ehrenstein, Hi, David. Very wonderful piece on Holly! Thank you and kudos! It's like the defunct Xmas theme park taps into some general sense of loss re: Xmas that comes with growing up and becoming a human who both has to pay for it and is forced by necessity pretend to believe in it, or something. So excited for the Kaufman. Panting even. ** Steevee, Hi. Very, very interesting about the Kaufman. Better than 'Synecdoche'? Wow! Thank you for the best films list! No shares with mine, but there might well have been had I had the opportunity so far to see the Hsiao-hsien, Lee, and Wiseman at the very least. ** Tomkendall, Hi, T. Ebooks have been my expatriate experience's savior. I'm sure I'll always want physical books when the choice is at hand, but there's something magical about a book that isn't a book too, or something. Really glad the black hole has turned into ... what do they call those things that extend from the back of a wedding dress and drag on the ground ... a train? No, no actual hands-on work on my novel yet. Still too otherwise assigned. But I think about it constantly, and I hope to pounce any week now. ** Sypha, They used to. Up until the 1970s. Then, I think, amusement parks went bigger, more sophisto, and became franchises, and roller coaster technology became much more advanced to the point where coasters became the dominant theme park attraction, and the little homemade ones, Xmas-themed and otherwise, got lost. I don't care if Tarantino attempts a gay character or not. Who cares. That's like if someone had thought Warhol should do oil paintings or something. 'Jackie Brown' is still my favorite Tarantino, I think. ** H, Hi. Oh, yeah, I understand totally about the Collobert thing. Xmas! It's getting so close! Kind of scary! ** _Black_Acrylic, Hi, Ben. Ha ha, I actually thought that Dundee thing was yours at first until I noticed the fine print. The UK really does own the failed Xmas themed event. It's interesting. I suppose there's a reason for that, but who knows what it is. Seems wise: you being patient with your writing and your launching of it. Excited for whenever you feel ready to pull the trigger. ** Martin Bladh, Hi, Martin! Oh, sure I'll put it in the upper right hand corner as soon as I finish the p.s. Wow, half already? That's wild! Thank you! Have a super swell Friday! ** Misanthrope, Hey, man. You and Flit fucking rocked the form that is commonly referred to (by me, any least) as 'the post'. Thank you! You guys set it to stun. I gave your Christmas its soul. Oh, I agree about real deserts. Mine, however, really was pointless, at least at its inner core. I don't know Troye Sivan at all. And I can't say that you've sold me on him. I'll maybe stick a toe in. ** Derek McCormack, Derek! I'm glad that that you, of all maestros, liked it. Oh, that sucks about the cancellation of your lecture! Wtf?! If I was God, I would fly you over here and arrange for you to deliver it in the Tuileries with many, huge loudspeakers and massive publicity. But, sadly, luckily, I am not. Um, no, I don't think you ever sent me corsage. My hands are trembling. A Package! Do you have my new address? I'll send it to you in just a minute just in case. Oh, my goodness, thank you, Derek! I hope your holidays are like ... if everything sublime that has happened in the entire history of Xmas was bunched together meticulously and then turned upside down and suspended in the air over you like a chandelier so huge and beautiful it would cancel out the stupid sun! Love, me. ** Okay. Have the blast of all blasts today with what Flit and Misanthrope have made for you! See you tomorrow.
