My Journal of a Plague Year: This is my deep dive into travel journalism. The usual sex, drugs and Vaticanism featuring: Warren Sloat on Naples, Tina Satter aka Half Straddle (!), Emmylou Potter (in aural disguise), Angelo Larangera on Fruit, Quentin Anderson on Clubbing, Syd Barrett in a K-Hole, Chaterbate Geebeety pitching, My former lawyer Steve, Susanna Sonnenberg goes Poly, Paul Hunter talking about my friend, Joe Andoe talking about another guy, and making dessert is Ignatio Mattos. This is where we put a button on it and call the roast done. Onward!

JD Vance: “these presidents, ambassadors and senators are only jokes and errand boys. They do what they’re told to do or else - like John Kennedy”  WSB

Yeats: These love poems are known through America, Ireland, France, Spain and beyond

Berghain: I’m a handsy homophobic hetero and I resent the anti-inclusive marginalization - that said, I don’t know a raver worth his salt who hasn’t had a knob in his mouth once or thrice
