I've been spending some time with Bowie's Blackstar. Trippy and so very good.

My bf was devastated by his death. He patterned a lot of his style after Bowie. We've been attending a lot of the tributes in LA.

When I consider Bowie it feels more like celebrating a life than mourning a death.

He made more of his time than most, and instead of burning out, would jump to new endeavors when he got bored, contributing to a lot of different arts.

Griff: I think I'd remember if I moved it.

Pete: Well, what did you do when you walked over here?

Griff: I put my drink down on that new coaster and --

Pete: Oh, the coaster that says "Ziggy Stardust" and has a picture of David Bowie? That one?

Griff: Let me get my glasses.

That reminds me, last year I was given a candy/chips dish made from heating a record album and bending it up.
My mouth says thank you, but my brain is screaming, WTF, that's no way to treat an album.
I tell my brain to calm down, it's some old album nobody wanted, probably polkas on a bagpipe.
Oh look, the label is still on it let's see what kind of... TUSK... son of a bitch!

So much truth.

Bruce, I do apologize for humanity generally.
