p.s. Hey. So, it’s that annual day of the year when I share my favorites of the past year. There are probably things I’m forgetting. There are undoubtedly things I haven’t yet read, seen, heard, or watched that would be there if I had. As always, I would love to hear what your favorites of the year were if you would be so kind as to pass them along. ** Dominik, Hi!!! Yes, I suppose you’re right. I think the Weezer lunchbox is still in storage somewhere. The one from my childhood, surely not. I can share my Buche event of yesterday in the following form. Here’s the Buche itself. And here are my fellow devourers and the Buche just before its dissection (l. to r.: Chris, Lucy, Ange, Zac). It was good: the logs aka cake and even the white chocolate fireplace, stocking, and grate. And there’s a wee bit left. Very smooth trip to Hungary today. Will you be there for the holidays’ duration, I guess meaning until New Years? Love making a list of his favorite humans of the year with you most assuredly on it, G. ** jay, Hey, Jay. Well, there isn’t a lot to tell about the ‘God Jr.’ graphic novel yet. The artist/graphic novelist doing it is Sylvain Bordesoules, who has published two really excellent graphic novels here in France. The ‘GJr’ one is planned to be published in English and in French. I think in France it’ll be published by Gallimard. I don’t know about the English one. I’m excited about it. Thank you for the ‘Belladonna’ link. I’ll use it ASAP. Awesome. Yes, ‘Eye’ is my top choice, predictably. Haha, your boyfriend sounds sweet. I’m happy you’ve wound up with a nice and readable guy. Thanks, Buche pix just above, and I hope your weekend’s atmosphere is Xmas-y in some way. ** Misanthrope, Sorry about the busyness, G, but I reckon they’ll cut you loose any second if not already. Enjoy the birthday dinner, obvs. I’m planning to spend my weekend with Paper Mario. ** _Black_Acrylic, Glad it/he was of interest. What Hollywood cranks out is mostly just a bunch of dissolvable distractions. My list is now yours. Time for you to pony up, dude. ** Steeqhen, I woke up too early too, but luckily I don’t have anything mind-busting to do today. I quit ‘Luigi’s Mansion 3’ because I came upon a boss who seemed impossible (for me) to beat, but it was fun until he drove me away. I watched my roommate play the Zelda as Zelda game when I was in LA last time, and it did look quite charming and not excessively hard. ** politekid, Big O! Thanks about ‘God Jr.’. I’m very proud of that book, and not just because it’s the novel of mine that people seem least interested in. I think the last section of ‘God Jr.’ is the best thing I have ever written. Anyway, thanks. I told what there its to be told about it to jay up above. It’s still pretty early on. I don’t think the artist has actually started working on it yet. Director’s Cuts of films are almost always more self-indulgent and worse. Like ‘Donnie Darko’ is a lovely film, or it was until the director fucked it up by adding a bunch of time-consuming, ‘meaningful’ leftover crap. You do sound better about your own writing today, great, and, yes, keep me in the loop. Editing is my metier. Great, I can pore through the lit journal, thank you, maestro. Everyone, here’s a link to a lit journal issue co-edited and co-introduced by the brilliant politekid. Brainy coolness awaits. I seriously envy you on that tractor parade. Zac is obsessed with tractors, and he would lose his mind if he were you. How/what was it? Any exciting fiascos or intentional highlights? Right, I was working on an opera like you describe at one point. Gisele Vienne was to direct it. Zac and I co-wrote it. Dominique Gonzales-Foerster was going to do the set. And the one and only Scott Walker was composing the score and songs. But then he got cancer and died, and that was kind of the end of it. It’s really too bad. It would have been very strange and maybe even innovative if we had actually done it. Have a blast with the tractors and with every other little thing that enters your peripheral vision this weekend. ** Steve, Thank you, I did. Pix of the Buche whence still in tact are link-accessible up above. I hope your parents are toasty warm. Nice re: your snow. We had a good two minutes of hail and sleet here the other day. Young child like really young? Pokemon and its billion offshoots seem to be the child game, I think? Maybe some of the easiest Mario stuff? Kids probably play those puzzle-based games like Tetris and stuff? ** HaRpEr, Basinski leant a nice, melancholy vibe to the Buche feast yesterday, all thanks to you. The Buche was complicatedly delish. You can see it if you click the links in my talk to Dominik up above. I remember trying to make a Scary Xmas music gig for the blog and finding that too difficult. Did you mange to fill one? You have a great start there. That’s funny, or sort of, but when I was in high school one of my best friend’s girlfriend was this much older British woman, and she used to make all of us teens watch ‘The Bishop’s Wife’ with her at Xmas, so there you go. I don’t remember it so well. I was doing a lot of acid at the time, and I do remember it wasn’t so conducive. Your dad sounds like a major handful. Yeah, I mean, polite silence and forced smiles seems like your arsenal. Ugh, sorry. Congrats on your shoes, which do sound very scenic and physically uplifting, which hopefully transfers up to your heart and head. Have a lovely weekend up there. ** Sarah, Hi, Sarah. There you go? What infected your year in the good way? ‘Yakuza’ does sound really fun, yes. Really. I’m going to look into it. Ooh. Awesome about your novel! That’s so great! When is it coming out? That’s very exciting. As someone who either writes or tries to write vibes-based fiction with minimal, merely fuel-like narrative, I applaud you. Bah, there’s no ‘you can’t do that’ with writing and with fiction in particular. I don’t need to tell you that, in fact, anything goes. Predetermining rules from outside sources are why most fiction books are just inert clones only distinguishable from one another due to slight variations. No, I haven’t seen ‘Smile 2′, but I do intend to see that one. I’m way behind on regular, wide release films. I need to get over myself. Did you have a weekend of note? ** Bill, Hi. Pix of the Buche and its eaters (minus me) available via the highlighted green words north of here. The eating itself was just eating plus the occasional uttered compliment plus cheap champagne buzz. Oh, nice, about VanDerBeek’s grandson. And about you getting to see that Dome piece in person. Very cool. Your gig is tonight! Knock ’em dead! Everyone, If by some miracle there is someone reading this who is in Taipei today, the great Bill Hsu is performing in your vicinity tonight, and you should go! Here’s the scoop. ** Right. My 2024 faves, ideally in return for yours. See you on Monday.
