@szacharek Rapture.

[david ehrlich @davidehrlich]

David Lynch gave us the language we needed to better articulate the indescribable strangeness of our shared reality. “Lynchian” is so overused because it’s a viscerally understandable word without any known synonyms. I can’t imagine a more beautiful artistic legacy than that.

"Some thoughts are just more interesting than others. I’ll have an idea to go get a cup of coffee, for instance. Or for a scene in a film. Or for making a chair. This is why daydreaming is so important to me. All the thoughts just flow."—David Lynch
Good night David Lynch.

@Joypress It is amazing, and yes, so much life. ♥️

[Liz Brown @evcbrown]

@Joypress Oh I’m so sorry to read this. Just realizing from my shock that I thought we’d have him forever.

[Liz Brown @evcbrown]

@AnneleiseHall @DefenderOfBasic Exactly.

[Liz Brown @evcbrown]

@DefenderOfBasic I wonder if/when we’ll start reframing from “animals have been talking to each other all this time!” to “why has it taken humans this long to figure that out”?

[Liz Brown @evcbrown]

@MoiraDonegan Also, I recall Lillian Hellman's memoir having some fantastic descriptions of being soused. And David Plante's "Difficult Women" includes a nasty portrait of Jean Rhys in her cups.

[Liz Brown @evcbrown]

@MoiraDonegan I wonder if alcoholism was par for the course after Prohibition, that the alcoholics were the rule not the exception, for at least a generation.

[Liz Brown @evcbrown]

@alexander_61609 I’m not sure that’s illusory — in any case, excited for your momentum ♥️

@henryalford 🥳I can't wait! 😍💞💗

[Liz Brown @evcbrown]

@alexander_61609 This is the extraordinary strand of beauty in this devastating story, the thing that didn't get corroded by the betrayal and abandonment of adults. I'm so glad for them.

[Liz Brown @evcbrown]

@alexander_61609 Utterly heartbreaking and monstrous. I am in awe of Andrea Skinner’s grace and resolve.
