The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion ~every single day.

It turns out Titian made a portrait of Jusky. (Actually a portrait of Pietro Aretino, who I don’t think my good friend will horribly mind being likened to. The resemblance is eerie.)

jusky:

So I just read my roommate, Emily, the following sentence:

A person is not liable for damages in any civil action for wrongful birth based on a claim that, but for an act or omission of the defendant, a child or children would not or should not have been born.

And then I asked her what she…

I’m speechless. *put all republicans in a jar with a big anchor on it [only for sink purposes in the deepest sea].

I think this book is working!

yep!

jusky:

My phone counts text messages.

You know you get along with someone when you’ve exchanged 6,916 text messages since November 18th.

yeah, that’s pretty serious… :)

So this morning I was a little hungover and extremely thirsty and Emily and I went to the Home Depot and that’s where I spotted these amazing big jugs of Fabuloso. Now I’ve never heard of Fabuloso but I love the name Fabuloso and the color looks delicious so I told Emily I was going to buy an enormous jug of Fabuloso and drink it all today. I was so excited. I was like shouting in the Home Depot, I SHALL DRINK ALL THE FABULOSO!

But then Emily read the label and said I couldn’t drink it because Fabuloso is actually an all-purpose cleaner.

Then I was sad.

…you can drink it ~ but only once.

yet another mystery of life… you did find out.  : ) [never stop looking]

I was recalling to my roommates that during my speech to the elementary school kids I may have at one point half-shouted at the tots, ‘you know how if you give a man a fish, he eats for a day but if you teach a man to fish, he’ll eat for a lifetime—well give a man a book about fishing and he’ll fucking teach himself to fish!’

Well, I’m paraphrasing.

I hope the kids survived your speech and didn’t throw any personally things at you [like their used diapers, lunch boxes, etc.]

This morning I’m going to an elementary school to collect books from a book drive, watch the kids do a play of The Lorax and then give a little speech about books and what my organization does.

I think it’s pretty obvious that I’m the ideal motherfucker to talk to kids.

…now I’m scared.  : P

jusky:

Nice treadmill. When did you buy that? Great purchase. I bet you use it a ton. I bet you use it just as much now as when you first bought it. God, doesn’t it feel good to be fit?

Why I can hear…or even smell your sarcasm through your tiny singular lines woven into plural meanings….. although you’re million miles away, genius….  ? :)

jusky:

Whenever I think anything at all about black people I worry I’m being racist. Like after talkiing to this lady on the train this morning my brain had the following debate with itself:

God damn there is a special kind of fucking awesome about happy old black ladies!

Hmmm. Is that racist?

No, you…

…to be happy isn’t racist….anyhow, what skin color… but, if you make an old[er] lady unhappy…that’s dishonorable & disrespectful…[in some cases even sarcasm?]. —- and for dark skin ladies, I say: …that’s maybe an infinite test to human dignity… for everyone.

…again? …how many times you lost & found it, in 2011?… I remember every single [panic-] time… *you need something on your body, to hide your phone permanently…an armpit - bag, a fake Rastafarian wig with very stable hairnet…or something… #justsaying ;D & I wish you a very, very Happy New Year, jusky :) xx
