Thanks For Taggin' Us In One Of 'em "Picrews," @toasted-valentine! Here's My "Li'l' Guy":

hey william quick question. what does en abime actually mean? its def not english, is it latin maybe?

It’s French! From one of those poems ol’ Thomas was always on about. He named the joint!

Wahoo! Here it is again, folks!

remember when i said i had no art to show? well now i do!

love these gays

check out en abime if you havent, folks, it’s a fun time over here

Ten Minutes! Wahoo!

Ten more minutes, and we're neck-in-neck! Be sure to do your civic duty and drop a vote, folks! If you'd like to keep seein' our mugs about here!

i'm swea tin g haha. but they wouldn't let u s d own.

Henry are you having an allergic reaction to sesame seeds and that's why for words are like? Incredibly spaced out like this?

no i feel fine it's more um that

seems like a bit of

interference or just static

like driving from

one town

to another, the st ations cut out

this isn't my town

Hey! So I have family out in Chicago who can get to your tape, Henry, but they'd have to send it to me in order to get thr actual audio (they dont have anything they can use to play it) would that be alright? Or should we keeo the tape in there and find a different solution? :[

i like the changes in the blog, the banner and profile picture are amazing!!

Thanks, pal! My sweetheart helped redecorate.

i made them, yeah. the icon is just a photo of us, but the header is one of my favorites- a forest somewhere around chicago, i think? i wanted us to have something nice to look at. if you look at it long enough you can kind of hear the leaves rustling.

Hey guys! Congrats on the win! Henry, we're trying to look for a way to help you stabilize -- do you think making the text we sent you before into a spectrogram and uploading that would help? It's from a geocache one of us found, outside, near where you two met. If not, what kind of thing should we be looking for? Also, for decorations, would sending a spectrogram of a microphone be more helpful for you to get it instead of just sending the photo?

Out of curiosity, what's the last thing you remember before the abime?

Feel like I've always had one foot in here in those early days, but it's hard to tell. It was a kinda mix of both. Sometimes I'd feel like one of those insects with the eyes that are a buncha tiny eyes all together, you know -- Henry showed me a photograph of one once -- watching eighty different things in eighty different places. Sometimes it's all just quiet. Nowadays, it's mostly quiet, so I feel like I can be in here in one piece real solid.

S'pose the only memory I can concretely say was before all of this was being seventeen or eighteen, tickling the Ivories in that recording room. Singing.

william do you support women!

Yes! Wahoo!
