Everybody plays each other. That's all anybody ever does. We play parts.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Oh gods, no. I'd rather party out in the desert than at Circus Circus.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You know what'd help?

Validation.

Our wings are not tired

Circus Circus is kinda strange. It's one of the few hotels in Vegas I've not stayed at, though I have played the tables there a few times.

I love The Hard Rock hotel, it's off strip, but way cool. It's also expensive.

What about The Rio?

Not sure yet. They've not responded yet.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

OMG, wouldn't that be something-a Buffista Burning Man colony. Hmm, someone on the local freecycle the other day was giving away a geodesic dome that was used for a Burning Man colony for a few years. Hmm.

OTOH, the middle of a desert over Labor Day? even though everyone there is noctural, it's still hecka hot.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

OMG, wouldn't that be something-a Buffista Burning Man colony.

A localista friend and I were just talking about something similar -- we both harbor secret Burning Man longings, but weird ones. We'd like to sleep all day in silk-draped, mosquito-netted tents, rise at dusk, and host all-night tea parties, in white linen dresses (preferably with hoops and crinolines), complete with crustless cucumber sandwiches and digestive biscuits and crumpets and as much of the whole nine yards as we can manage in the desert.

I'm fairly sure there is a certain contingent of Buffistas who'd be quite happy with such a colony -- and, of course, I also realize that this is the polar opposite of what 24-hour wild animals like ND and nature-happy hiking and walking goddesses like Java think of when the words "Buffista Burning Man colony" arise, but that's the beauty of Buffistadom. It embraces multitudes, be they hoop-skirted, hiking-shoe clad, kilted or buck-ass naked.
