Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Oh, I should have realized. Part of it was started by comments from Amanda Palmer.

Color me ... yeah, should have seen that coming, actually.

I find her difficult. I just deleted the rest of what I wrote. But I find her difficult.

I am somewhere slightly more romantic than ita. But definitely on the "pretty much never get to know someone I wasn't attracted to and then become attracted to them". I might get MORE attracted to someone I already thought was hot, or less attracted to someone I though was an ass, but...

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

"Timsexual" seems like a fairly narrow parameter.

Although there are a LOT of Tims out there...

Oh god, is Tiny Tim still alive? I don't want him turning up on my doorstep with his ukelele, thinking I'm into his groove.

Because books.

I think he died! I'm not sure why. Wow, I hadn't thought about him for a lonnnng time.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Oh god, is Tiny Tim still alive? I don't want him turning up on my doorstep with his ukelele, thinking I'm into his groove.

I would like to point out that, if he is in fact deceased, this scenario doesn't get any better.

Kon will cut you, if you try anything.

Whoo, I need to stop backreading on the plan b stuff. Because I keep running across exchanges like this one:

@amandapalmer You are a towering talent. Many are not, I hope you raise a glass for those who #fuckplanb and end up fucking their future.

@FluoroNinja if anybody fucks their future due to striving towards a passion, i'd say it was a probably a fantastic fuck.

And then I get all head-explody. Because you know what? No one lives in a vacuum, and if someone has fucked up their future, they've probably also done collateral damage to other people's lives.

This.

In September 1996, [Tiny Tim] suffered a heart attack just as he began singing at a ukulele festival

Well, that's just fitting and sad.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Are these fantastic fuck people, like, fifteen? Because not only is the whole art-sans-safety net thing fucking immature and eyerolly, but no one single fuck is all that either.

And again, I am going to say that I have conflicted views and feelings about Amanda Palmer and just leave it at that.
