So, I have to say, because I can't anywhere else and life can be awesome and stupid all at the same time...This guy I knew back home who ran a club for all the freaks when we didn't really have a place in small town north La. killed himself yesterday. I'm not even...I don't know, just broke for everyone.
On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Yet another robocall on the answering machine. I already voted! We vote by mail! Most people have already voted! And I voted for goddamn Patty Murray, so leave me alone, you slimy fucking robocalling Republican PACs.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh, Daisy, how sad. I'm sorry.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
DJ, I'm so sorry.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I'm sorry, DJ. That's terrible.

I am sad and heartbroken, but ok. I feel worse for my cohorts back in the day who found a place to go.

Because books.
Oh, Daisy, I'm sorry. For him, and for you, and for everyone he helped.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, Daisy. I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry for yours and the community's loss, DJ.
