Can you believe it? What the fuck is Tumblr. I need to buy them stock or send them a thank you letter. Because of Tumblr, I’m a famous meme. I think that just goes to show you the internet is so amazing. It can be amazingly bad or amazingly positive. It’s just so powerful. In this instance it’s extremely wonderful and it’s exposing rich nuanced life that you’re not going to see in mainstream media. I get letters from suicidal teens and the fact that they can tune out their redneck, Duck Dynasty family for a while. It’s like a portal and they can just come to Silver Lake with me and live in Aunt Freckle’s boudoir. That is incredible and that’s more powerful than TV and film because you can get it in the palm of your hand.

In case anyone was wondering how Freckle felt about the meme. (via jakke)

“I was lounging around in furs and silks for a year because I had come into some money and didn’t have a job” is the best thing I’ve ever read.

Today I met a woman, whose age she did not mention because she is a lady, was buying a lot of Star Wars merch because we had it on sale. And she was telling me that she couldn’t wait to see the new one and how she was going to stay up and see the midnight release and take pictures of people in costumes. She was so excited, and then she leans in close:

“You know, all these young men at these conventions- they see me and they ask me trivia about this that and the other thing and I tell them- ‘Son, I went to see the first one in 1977 before you were even a twinkle in your daddy’s eye.’ If I don’t know the answer, its because I damn forgot.”

“Richmond, Ind., now furnishes a story of a woman’s strange infatuation for a woman. Charles Worrell and wife separated because of Mrs. Worrell’s unnatural love for her sister-in-law, Mrs. Marion Worrell, a widow. The women were heretofore highly esteemed in the community. Mrs. Charles Worrell is a woman of fine attainments, at one time a teacher in Eartham college. Charles Worrell remonstrated with his wife, and tried in every possible way to break off the unnatural alliance between the women, but without effect, and finally an amicable division of property was made and the husband and wife separated. The two women have gone to Lorain, Ohio, to live together. Both are handsome and about twenty-five years of age. They say they cannot live apart.”
