(The Mirror)

This page is not demanding.
It’s symmetrical.

I don’t ask for anything I don’t give.

(Read This First)

This page exists to save us both time.

If you’re still reading after this, we’re probably fine.

(Dangerously Effective)

This is not a methodology.

Now, if you're not familiar with Old Forge, imagine looking at a map of New York, finding the part that says "absolutely fucking freezing," and then voluntarily driving there in the middle of January.

For reasons that still escape me, that's exactly what he did.

Naturally, when he called and said,

"Come spend the weekend."

...my response was,

"Why the fuck not?"

People assume Hell is loud.

It isn't.

Most days it's just me, coffee, and whatever absurd problem the universe decides to send my way.

This morning?

A fly.

Lucifer looked up at God and asked:
