Happy Birthday DT. Thank you for being an influential, inspiring, motivating, and entertaining quasi-presence in my life for over a decade. Thanks for introducing me to Debussy. And Houllebecq. And many others. I hope your pessimism about various calamities befalling you is all for naught, and that you get the good things you dream of with your lady, dog, freedom, etc.
Upon only just discovering your work, I’ll be a little disappointed if it turns out you pay the bills via a coding bootcamp certificate software engineer job or something
Go see Wuthering Heights at a local deco cinema with your lady. It's thew perfect level of stylized period piece slop with some fun interludes and no reaching for depth. You'll come away happy to be 50 in the 21st century and with your misogyny intact for an irredeemable main character who ruins everyone else's life by her unconscious greed. You'll love your girlfriend more.
Grateful I found your writing. You feel like an older brother I never had. It's amazing reading your older stories - describing in beautiful, poignant detail the very things I'm going through at 30. Happy Birthday King.

after 50 you become invisible. to girls to jobs to society in general. its a hard one to swallow for sure. but dignity comes in the acceptance of it.
To paraphrase Bukowski: small press books, office jobs and a girlfriend: these are the universities of life. I've got several degrees. Call me Mister.
I've been reading you since 2012, on the blog. You're living the life now and I'm very happy for you, brother.
We are the same age. I am unemployed this year. Glad I found you. Happy birthday old cunt.

Just really getting into your stuff and loving it
Thank you
As recommended to me by WBE, and he included your How To Write and I've been doing that
Happy Birthday Tacos 🌮 ❤️
Thank you
Was it giving up your vices that made you happier?
Life is short.
Another year lived is reason to celebrate!
Though I don't know you, happy birthday!
Also, re - "obsessed with a Korean woman who was using me for sex",
You get NO sympathy.
Happy Birthday DT.
Excellent piece
Thank you
Wishing you a long life and good health Tacos.
