    "How much fun is a lot more fun?.... not much fun at all" David Berman could save my life. I swear.

    Dammit, I hate when I only discover someone through news of their death. This guy was speaking to me all those years and I didn't know to listen. RIP.

    You did your best, David, but you had expectations for yourself that no one could live up to. I did not know of you in life but wish I did. May your wounded soul be finally at peace.

    • @PuddingAtheist
      @PuddingAtheist 5 лет назад +5

      @Matt You're right. If I was an artist insecure about how my audience viewed me, I would actually beg to be pigeonholed. "I guess I'm like a 'math teacher'. wonderful. thanks a lot." A poet cartoonist who liked reading Edith Wharton in Central Park and doing heroin to Dolly Parton doesn't exactly read 'math teacher', to me--iDon't know about you.

    • @PuddingAtheist

      @Matt hahaha, all good. I wasn't ACTUALLY offended. My old man was a math teacher-"with musical aspirations" no less. Anyways, hoping you're digging this music.
