Oooooohhhhh😢 I can't believe I missed this!!! Thank You SO much for posting this❤

Awesome reading from a favorite book!

loved early butch. barely tamed wild man.

"It resonates with me. I have no mom friends... and it hits a tender point." Lmfao 😂 God some ppl. Absolutely missed the entire plot. I'm not gonna explain the message, i shouldn't have to. But the message certainly isn't "superimpose your mild insecurity over real peoples trauma." 🙄

Excellent!

Anyone who watches TV or movies has seen a Jewish person before.

Love you two, but i do often wonder... Bet its extremely difficult to get transgressive fiction released in the age of sensitivity readers. Harder now than it was for Burroughs in the 50s lol. Think obscenity trials will make a come back in 10/20 years? So depressing, man. Superman forever

Amazing ❤

are you the laura albert from the song "vicious panties"?

Good job, Laura Albert.Took Guts. Songs can change the world with baby steps!!!! Thank you, Vicki

Thank You❣️✨️❣️✨️❣️

My favorite Ibsen quote is in "The Wild Duck" where he (basiclly) says "some ducks get winged and fall down but heal and fly again and others just can't let go of the seaweed at the bottom".

Life is one traumatic event to the next. Who you are is how you deal with those traumas. Its hell and some can deal and some just can't

I love your version of this

I took photos too- 4 semesters of photo in H.S. I had a Minolta, which I bought with money I earned hard working at a mall after school- it took like over 100 hrs of work at $3.15/hr..... Took photos til my camera was STOLEN😱 from a squat (in a temporary mobile construction office trailer which has been abandoned on a "ran out of money & halted all development before they even broke ground" site in the far suburbs of Chicago) when I was 20 in 1989😵 Abbott & Costello "Niagara Falls!!!!!"🙏🏿❣️🙏🏿 that's actually an old Vaudeville sketch, both A & C and the 3 stooges performed it😉

I LOVE THIS!!!!!!!! This IS The Most Important Message You have J.T

I worked at CBGB for over 20 years. Hilly gave me a job walking his dog at age 13 as a kid ( lived in a squat around the block) and gradually as I got older working the door/bar and booking bands. What needs to be said is that gradually the HC all ages show became increasingly violent with different gangs fighting each other in and outside the club-as well as a ton of misogyny and homophobia that hilly and the rest of the crew at CBGB wanted no part of. The hardcore all ages sunday shows for that very reason was stopped for a time. Never in the history of the club of thousands of punk bands playing did we ever experience anything like that before and we would not tolerate it. Unlike the "punks" at CBGB which was totally inclusive and championed woman, queers, ect-unfortunatly the later hardcore scene became a totally different monster in an almost fascistic machismo conformity-the total opposite of the punk ethos. It became a gigantic difference between what to expect from a punk audience on a regular night and a hardcore audience on a Sunday afternoon...nobody wanted to work Sunday afternoons at those gigs

Very cool.

THANK YOU GENIUS❣️🌹❣️🌹❣️🌹❣️🌹❣️

The Indians (aboriginal Americans) used to just know rather than speak. They would look at each other and just know - not by a psychic thing, or imagery, or signs, but simply by common sense alone ...........

Fuck yea!

Your too modest. Those books are gold.

Only people who are insecure get threatened by talent. I'm a professional artist and I love to see good work out of anyone, simply because there is so little of it - and yes every artist thinks to a degree they are the best in the world, haha, but imagine the Renaissance with so many great artists digging on eachother's stuff. Or for writers, it was during and just before the beats when there was total respect for innovation among peers. Kids today are catty.... or something? I dunno... Laura Rocks - and J.T. was real, real enough. I was too busy chasing girls to know what was going on back then - I would have said, "but is the work good "? It was more than good, I mean if you can't take a joke then you can't take life..... if I found out that on the road was written by Nixon who was also a murderous communist puppy stomper, I would ask, "well is the work good", though I know I would be reading a bit more into it, haha - WHOA I WROTE TOO MUCH ON THIS COMMENT, PARDON

I love your books, now I dig your music. Anything new on the grill?
