Couldn't get through the first eight paragraphs before suspending the suspending belief part of my brain. Barrie and Nellie owe me the few minutes I wasted my time trying to read this crap, that I'll never recover. What a bunch of drivel, a cascade of bullshit, an avalanche of inconsequential self praise, a litany of stupidity!

I'm betting there weren't a lot of blacks? That's one of those white people things that don't make a lot of sense to them. That's just a guess based on a few blacks I know

Another story about Burning Man. Who frickin cares? Ugh

Expand full comment

burning man is now for libertarian writers, account executives, mba students, corporatists looking to feel something. whatever cool factor it had is long dead and now just another “must do” overly covered thing left to rot from the inside. every burner i meet is somehow lacking inside-and putting upon in a way that feels off.

once something is covered in MSM it’s dead

We are all different and traveling different paths.

Congratulations Nick! I hope you and Sarah Rose have many many lovely years together. Finding love is a beautiful experience.
