Squiggle mime underwater, breathes through tube for his daughter. He got in gambling pool trouble over a warped game of soccer.

Now he’s performing for a soul-eating monster … Mime’s medicine is music (so says a doctor).

Artist/writer’s debt-cancelling contingency fantasy plan

As an artist/writer and as someone who’s still in what looks and feels like a giant endless hole of debt because he has to repay a frickingly higher-than-expected haunting student loan AND because of questionable investments (and/or mistakes, including a … Continue reading

The soon-to-be-father actually referred to his not-yet-born-child as his “retirement plan”.

I don’t know how serious or non-serious he was when he said that, but i think that his apparent plan can raise interesting questions about one’s own purpose, motivation, autonomy, and identity.

MAYBE, digging a deeper hole (for oneself) might really be like stretching the string of a bow and this will lead oneself to launch him or herself high and far out from the hole (like an arrow

“…As soon as she found out, things went downhill for him. DOOOWWWWNHIIIIIILLLLLL…”
