Going to America on Thurs to open a new exhibition in New Orleans. Curious about how many things have changed in the year since I've been.

Deleted the automatic Threads account that was generated -- couldn't tolerate any longer the dreadful bot click bait it was filled with.

In my experience this never ends, we just cope by finding weirdo friends who sync into the same rhythm.
