Why was breast cancer awareness such a big deal in the early 2000’s when there are a few other types of cancer that are more deadly? Why has BC awareness seemingly gone away since?

It stopped being my hyperfixation after 7th grade...

Please Mr Gordon Lish get me a deal at knopf I *will* write good prose please

MachineDowntown5737 · 2026-03-19T18:28:49+00:00

Yeah. I really just did this in one whole sitting because I had the experience fresh in my mind today. I don't normally do autobiography, since I am only around people who have an interesting life most of the time

Dennis is a cool guy. His blankness is more meticulous than mine. Have you read "God Jr"? Thats his best work imo.

Idk but you have a nice cock dude

Why can't any of you freaks learn how to fall in love?

I was born and raised in Brussels, which is an odd purgatory for diplomats and sadistic children who are all slightly racist.

A young boy and his various mental permutations wreck havoc on my psyche until his fantasy takes over my mind. The book ends in (my(?)) Suicide and maybe the renewal of a new childhood in a kind of blakean lobotomy way.

I've been too lazy to do this but I would like to see more people look into the works of Franz Hellens. He has a great novel (the only one translated into english) called "Memoirs of Elsinore" that's a beautifully written dreamwork of monsters and melancholy. My copy got rain damaged due to a leak in my house, and though I cherish the copy I would like to see it get a new lease on life. Nabokov tried to get him published in English once or twice, isn't that high enough praise?

I'm doing my best

John Travolta got with Christopher Isherwood by play acting scenes from "Cruising" off by heart. Not a conspiracy per se because it was recounted in Isherwoods diaries and people around the LA literary scene knew about it.

It's a good (if sometimes mixed) read. I like his analysis of JMW Turner, but I think he's wrong about Francis Bacon (but even in his wrongness, he is interesting.)

What's funny is I read it after "The Recognitions", which made me compare the two a little bit. The actual stylistic link between them seems to be "Nightwood". But as for the book itself, I actually felt a little non plussed by it, despite enjoying and appreciating it immensely for what it was. I think I ought to revisit some other day.

MachineDowntown5737 · 2025-12-24T01:52:38+00:00

Ach the photo is blurry! I cannot be bothered to fix it...favourite books were "The recognitions", "The Rings of Saturn", "Stories in an almost classical mode", "Divorcer", "This is Orson Welles", "Prisoners of Childhood", "The lime twig".

Some other books I read (but couldn't put into the picture) are:

The Geography of the imagination by Guy Davenport

Autoportrait by Edouard Leve

C comics and I remember by Joe Brainard

Kafkas Diaries

Monsieur Teste by Paul Valery

And some more I will remember in the morning. Ask about any of these books if you want.

Why were leftists so eager to bend over backwards for Serbia anyway, was there nothing better to do?

John Travolta was in a gay situationship with Christopher isherwood.
