i tried reading genet's "the thief's journal" for pride month, but i just couldn't get through it. his piss-elegant writing style, combined with the subject matter, was just too much for me. i started louise hay's "you can heal your life" two nights ago.
i have to turn all the addons in my browser off for the comments to appear in this post. wtf is going on with its formatting? i didn't have to do that with the other one.
aw, i just learned that shelley duvall died sometime in her sleep this morning. :( rip shelley! you were one of the gentlest, most unique actresses we ever had!
david letterman's yt channel uploaded an interview with shelley after the news broke. it bugs me when people try to take monetary advantage of peoples' deaths, but that's show business for you. it surprised me that they uploaded a clip where he's clearly struggling and not on his a-game, though. i don't know if he was nervous or if she was just so disarming that he didn't know how to go about being his usual asshole-ish self but she was, of course, always the lovely professional throughout the interview. i didn't know that she was originally going to be a scientist before she became an actress, but it does make sense because she was so much more than just a pretty face. rip sweet shelley! <3
