This is what I look like when I drunkenly drop my phone, apparently.
Look what I found!

@Lau-Fi’s diary from 1993.


This is young Laura rating how her friends treated her each day. She still does this. And for this Tumblr post I get a star, suckers.

For those that can’t quite make this little gem out, Laura—who has up until this point never had pork before writes—“tomoro [sic] we are cooking that porky feast. Yes! (Star of David).” It is later revealed that in the heat of the moment she was overcome by guilt and swore to herself never to eat pork ever. She remained a pork virgin for another couple of years. Also, for the record, for dinner tonight we did indeed have a “porky feast.”

We have arrived at a gutted storefront in Cambridge. The task for the next few days is to go through the personal library of Charley Shively, former Harvard professor, gay rights activist and publisher of the radical journal Fag Rag.
Just a cursory look at the boxes and boxes of books has revealed some gems, including this original printing of “The Ice Storm,” a later Ashbery poem not anthologized or reprinted until 2008.

The internal design resembles a pocket psalter.
More on Charley Shively, John Ashbery and the many, many more amazing discoveries I think we’re about to make later. For now:
