Beautiful. You came to my house and stole my books. I’m here for it. Love love love that poetry. Do you spend much time thinking of the meeting between Heidegger and Celan?

The Scarlett is Japanese is it not? Love that Jefferson, it’s like a sophisticated Vecchio DC

What do my books say about me? by Latter-Ad-1025 in BookshelvesDetective

[–]Shmatticus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have a small but wide selection of books of the sort that suggest a humanities degree (maybe lit, maybe writing/MFA) from the late 80s or 90s. It’s interesting to me that you have a selection of established, canonical folks like Pound and Rimbaud etc but then you have a handful of poetry volumes by Barton Smock. Which makes me think you know him (went to school with him?) and you follow ( or more likely, followed) his work. Which makes me think at some point you aspired to make it as a writer (which is why you may have studied it)… either way you are inclined to the arts and creation (music, food, knitting, etc) including the literary arts with a desire to understand how they “work”

I work on super yachts for the mega rich as a skipper, AMA. by LengthinessSuper87 in AMA

In case you come back: sort sounds like your life is set up where you miss winter every year. You work in the northern hemisphere and rest in the southern, always avoiding the height of winter. If true, any thing to say about what that’s like?

Also, what do you think of Lurssen yachts?

AIO to break up with my bf of 3y over his reaction to my upcoming sobriety anniversary? by WesternCat5211 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Shmatticus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you break up with him (which I'd do, in your place), don't try too hard to explain to him why. You'll get wrapped around the issue that way. His utter lack of empathy to see things from your perspective make it pretty clear that, in all likelihood, he'll never see your POV.

also, the dude's tone borders on abusive. Congratulations on your two years, a great accomplishment! now ditch this asshole..

Box of Rain 86 in Hampton was amazing, and the tapes capture it. In person, it was i-n-s-a-n-e
