Wasn't one of Frey's recipes against writer's block - write! anything, no matter about what. I thought that was amusing, but very plausible... Free association can work for some people. Though I’ve never used it. What I’ve done is go to sleep and let my mind percolate. I’ve actually gone to bed with a vague idea of what I needed to happen but no idea how to handle the scene and awakened at 3 in the morning with the whole scene running through my head verbatim.
We’ve been told that we only use 10% of our brains. In truth the rest of it is not dormant but being used by those who know how to manipulate our emotions and subconscious with commercials and religion. So I thought why not use it myself. It’s not divine revelation but just tapping into that other 90% of my brain, giving my subconscious instructions to throw stuff up to my conscious mind.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.
I may defend your right to free speech, but i won't help you pass out flyers.

Made my skin crawl, and then became something I found myself revisiting in my thoughts frequently.
After a little thought, it came to me why his interview is so haunting;
He's where I was the day before I hit 12 Steppers (I wasn't to find out I was HIV- for 6 more months back then, so Charlie's interview has turned into a real cage rattler).
I'm also understanding despite my profound dysfunction back then I was still able to perceive the first 12 Steppers I encountered as not being very impressed with my chances of making a go of it in their world.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

I had a... really graphically sexual dream about the biblical story of samson last night. Like, it was in the form of greek paintings (i know right, but, dream) depicting enormous genitalia and references to the clitoris. Like... I woke up and was like, brain, wtf.

Don't worry, my friend. If this be the end, then so shall it be.

Ooo I love books on how to write. I don't actually write myself but I love reading about it.

I once had a sex dream where there was a guy with a, like, 12-foot-long dick that was rainbow striped. It was... interesting...

I'll take no advice from the Freys!

Just before I saw and read this comment I'm already having the thought "Fuck my left kneecap hurts".
Coincidences: They mean fuck all but even us rationalists like to talk about them if it's just for phunniez.
