twittered 'jesus' today
just 'chugged' a large iced coffeecurrently wearing a 'joy williams' shirt
it is purple with joy williams' head on it
above joy williams' head it says 'joy williams'
i'll wear either my 'joy williams' shirt or my 'i am carles' shirt to all shoplifting from american apparel readings, i feel
people will think '[something about hipster runoff]' or '[something about joy williams],' both types of thoughts that might somehow cause people to want to buy my books or 'at least' think about googling me 'at some point'
'should i be revealing my secrets'
my secrets to a successful career
just briefly thought about my career arc, saw something like 'a long, thin tentacle flailing wildly in a "pitch-black" environment,' then felt confused 'how i could have seen' the tentacle if the environment was 'pitch-black'
now not sure 'at all' if i 'even' saw tentacles
feeling confused, 'did i just "imagine" "seeing" it'
is there a 2nd or 3rd 'level of reality' inside my head
just briefly saw a cheeseburger or something 'flying around'
i feel happy about the 'joy williams' shirt, joseph moore made, or 'created,' it
do people like blog posts like this blog post
am i 'stupid'
'above joy williams' head it says "joy williams"': 'damn'
wondering if i can somehow manipulate twitter's code to start a new kind of twitter where the limit is one word
seems like sometimes i would twitter 'damn,' sometimes 'jesus,' sometimes 'heheheheheheheeheheheehehe.com'
is there anything else
can't really think of other words i would want to convey
i guess sometimes 'sweet' or 'alone'

steady cash flow is sooo over-rated . . . a bit like pineapples, really
i went with my brother to adams morgan in DC yesterday
then we walked to georgetown
my brother said 'let's go into american apparel'
then said 'every time i walk into american apparel i ask myself "why did i want to go into american apparel?"'
i thought about wanting to buy your book when he said that
then we went into urban outfitters
they have books there like 'pride and prejudice and zombies' and a coloring book that you can put your penis through
but no tao lin books
i thought 'this urban outfitters would be good if it had tao lin book in it'
the urban outfitters in georgetown is shitty
i'm not satisfied with my last comment
when/where are readings?
y ru so kewl tao?
a blog post with my reading dates will arrive soon
most respectfully:
want my take?
trying to be proper.
not horn in.
my "nwo".
(won't last long?)
would rather have a "blt".
realize people might think "bacon, lettuce and tomato" when really i meant "bizarre love triangle".
just "chugged" two glasses of red wine and it's not even five yet.
jk.
ok i did.
have to go "out to dinner" with my "old boss".
shit.
why am i telling you this?
"don't care".
wish someone would hire my lazy ass.
"jk".
not really.
i really do wish someone would "hire" my "lazy ass".
someone prolly will, sooner or later.
losing my train of thought.
am planning to look at "books by joy williams" next time i'm at the library.
owe $1.25 in fine. just found out. online.
shit.
great post!! one of my favorite ever. it makes me feel like doing a silly/semi-ironic/dumb toothy grin while i visualize stuff like flying hamburgers. Also: tilting the head and looking up diagonally.
i wish i wasn't poor and trying to pay for college so i could buy your books
you are stupid, confirmed.
mattheww, who are you, reveal yourself
jesus

idea for shirt: picture of frederick barthelme's head, above the head it says "red krayola".
or "donald barthelme".

i know what you mean re levels of reality. when i was young i had a pet rabbit. sometimes i wondered how he thought.
imagined that he 'saw' carrots, etc in his mind, and associated these with 'tasty feelings', also with a reality in which he was eating them and experiencing such feelings
when he died my brother hit me in the face with a shovel while digging his grave
the bunny sat in a shoe box in the garage while my dad gave me stitches (he's a doctor)
when you list readings you should list which shirt you're going to wear, interested in 'joy williams' shirt

why do people always forget that jellyfish have tentacles, too and that some of them are bioluminescent?
@ kerri ní dochartaigh gosh i love pineapples
@anon......
maybe the photo in this post was taken before he got the tat
maybe the person in the photo in this post isn't tao
maybe the person in the tat photo isn't tao
you get the point
good observational skills, but don't let your thinking get too uptight
jesus
hm

i wish i lived somewhere "cool" so i could go to your reading/s
kim testani
hehe

if your thinking is moral within an existential framework and not moral within a 'moral framework' is your art utilitarian?
does it have a purpose that serves good?
in your work, you raise awareness about veganism and present a reality where animals feel as humans do
are you telling us not to eat them? to be conscious of our environment and co-inhabitants
is this the purpose of your art?
i like blog posts like this blog post
joy williams shirt, damn
