but actually the real answer - not sure if you were asking about this indirectly or if it's just what i'm thinking about, but that's the advantage of an obscure question - is that i have always thought of myself as several different identities, or ways to go about things. work, family, church, art. they all held or hold different weights in my life, over time, and i thought of them as different things. but in revealing a secret identity i do seek to just be a little bit more real, although in an obscure way

I am quite convinced that my brain, like other human brains, contains multiple layers of subconscious behavior, which influence my thoughts and actions in ways that are nearly invisible to my consciousness. It often requires some post-event reflection and a bit of 'reverse-engineering' to figure out what the hell happened when these influences intermittently take control of my decision making.

I'm told the new version of firefox has an option to copy links without the extra bits

"being papped" = getting your cervix scraped to check for disease iirc

Or being thrown up on by a baby.

For non-glamorous career reasons I shouldn't post my photo online, but it may surprise you to know that I am a middle-aged man with a beard.

me and my babies. so nice to spend time with them while they are home for the break. we went next door to turners falls yesterday to the thrift store (ugh my kids really like to look at clothes for a long time), the new record store (ugh, i can really look at a lot of records), and the new book store which is awesome and hip and they have another store in brooklyn. fun! i bought some Cioran to get into the holiday spirit.

that is a great picture!

definitely!

great pic scott! is that the new Unnameable?

(as in, the bookstore)

no, that's my spot in the picture. unnameable is very cool though. had to stop myself from buying books about russian prison tattoos. so many great art/design/music/poetry books.

plus, dude was cranking penderecki. #brooklynstyle

i think that’s my pal Adam! sounds like him.

Unnameable is great— haven’t been to the location near you

Caught in the act of ogling a cute new guest a couple nights ago.

"i think that’s my pal Adam! sounds like him."

that's him. he lives here now. he's very nice.

scott, I love that photo! How old is your oldest?

Rufus turned 21 this month. Long-hair Cyrus is 18. Rufus is still at McGill in Montreal. Cyrus is at MassArt in Boston. It has been so much fun having them here. They are awesome.

omg my boss' daughter went to McGill and just graduated -- i wonder if they know each other?!?!

did rufus, in his first year, live in molson or mcconnell or . . . the other one?

in his first year he was home on a computer due to the pandemic. he tried to go there and live in temporary housing in a hotel that they had set up for students but there was no point because he could never leave his room or see anybody so he came back home. it was sad. when he went back he lived in an apartment with other people. so he never lived in a dorm. he has a sweet scholarship and McGill pays for his housing. i think he's moving into his 4th different apartment with other people in january.

awesome
