I quit smoking many years ago but feel obligated to go get a pack of American Spirits. RIP to David Lynch, one of this country's most legendary freaks. Thanks for giving us some of the greatest scenes in film history.

I have caught the bus there. Her tent was set up on land no one uses. Her tent was also a visible sign of homelessness, one that makes people uncomfortable - and should. No one should be unhoused. Thoughts are with her.
