I’ve always believed the best way to know the city is to stay close to the ground. To feel the cracks in the sidewalk under your shoes. The strange bright silence of the park under snow. The hissing rain of sparks that come down when the elevated train passes overhead on Third Avenue. The late night ticking of traffic lights. It’s only been in the last few weeks that I’ve come to understand how wrong I’ve been. Because I know now that you can spend your entire life learning Gotham from deep inside…and still know nothing about it at all.

Your writing is amazing. I check back every now and then to see what you have done lately, sometimes I go back and read older stuff. So to keep from rambling, don't ever stop writing, and I won't ever stop reading what you write.

About that new Manics blog that you're starting. What about adding "Comments" section on that blog--I don't really know how to do that though, except by registering your blog to third-party service like Disqus--so that people can put in their thoughts without having to reblog your entry?
repinipi asked

Well, there’s an ‘allow comments’ box that I checked under Settings, and I added a question box to the front page called ‘Share Your Thoughts’, which I can then post to the blog… is there a text limit on questions? I’ll have to figure that out.

Question for Manics fans & anyone else…

When I’m on a downswing I tend to listen to the Manics a lot, and because I like to distract myself at such times, I’m always analyzing their lyrics. Manics lyrics, to me, see, are more layered and nuanced than just about anything in the English language, and seeing as I have conducted a lifelong love affair with said language, picking them apart is my idea of a fantastic hobby.

And I have to wonder. Does anyone else do this? Why does no one ever talk about Richey and Nicky’s lyrics? Not just the political bent, but how fucking obvious some of them are? How bitter and clever and ridiculous? Is it because everyone knows everything already and finds it redundant to bring them up? Does anyone else find it weird/sad that Nicky has been writing about the same damn thing for nearly two decades?

I have a veritable backlog of lyrical essays and explanations and theories. I want to share them. (I posted them on a blog website years ago, but the readership was fairly niche, and they didn’t meet many eyes.) Since I keep meaning to make better use of tumblr, if I made a tumblr dedicated to Manics lyrics and my interpretations of them, would anyone care to read such a thing?

Please like or reblog to let me know.

hide-MISERY (by hoshigumi8888)

Ten Things to Do on hide memorial day

1. Wear pink.

2. Write ‘stay free my misery’ on a cardboard sign and hold it up at the nearest intersection. (Don’t forget the donations cup.)

3. Get blazingly, blindingly drunk and hit on a member of the opposite sex.

4. Get blazingly, blindingly drunk and hit on a member of the same sex.

5. Walk around singing the masturbation song. (If anyone addresses you by any name, scream ‘That’s NATURAL BORN ONNANIST to you!’)

6. Randomly run up to your friends and grope them. (Nipple-rubbing is especially encouraged.)

7. Ride around in a grocery cart. (Drinking dishwashing liquid is also acceptable, though not recommended.)

8. Come up with at least five extremely original euphemisms for penis (i.e. rocket, honey blade, electric cucumber). Even better, use them on your boyfriend(s).

9. Smoke a cigarette on a street corner and see if you get mistaken for a prostitute. (Poor hide.)

10. Make yourself a ‘Pink Spider’ - a drink containing Bacardi 151, Beefeater gin, cranberry juice, and a cherry. Like hide, it’s alcoholic, fruity, pink, and will make you want to bang everyone in sight.

And remember - approach life with attitude.
