Dreamt @maureenjohnsonbooks.com took us all to the unlicensed Willy Wonka Experience NYC. “You need to know the costs of capitalism,” she said, before pushing us forward toward the street entrance. “You need to see what Michael Bloomberg did to this town.” I bought some meth from their gift shop.

Along with the pin, somewhere in my archives I think I still have some of the condoms he gave out printed with his face and the slogans "Healey: you won't even know he's there" and "Healey: like using nothing at all"

I still have a campaign pin from Robert Healey, who used to run for RI Lt Gov every election cycle on the platform that he'd abolish the position immediately upon being voted into it

Paralympics as always way more interesting than Olympics and a better model for sport in general

I go to a bluegrass jam once a month. One of the guys there, an American, decided to break out a second jam every Sunday. I said I was excited and he DM'd me to say I wasn't invited because it's for strings only.
