thinking about the supposed meeting between brian wilson and thomas pynchon where they just sat across from each other silently in Wilson's living room for 2 hours, both too terrified of the other's vibe to speak
Brian Wilson opens a health food store in West Hollywood called “The Radiant Radish”. When asked what his favorite part of running the store was he responded, “the cash register”. (1969)

you should NOT be interested in the fact that all of the places mentioned in the beach boys' "kokomo" were/are hubs of slavery and human trafficking. do NOT concern yourself with the fact that it was produced by manson family associate terry melcher.

there's a lot i need to get away from right now, so i spent the night getting away in the best way i know how: taking a long look at a section of against the day. this is probably gonna long as shit and discursive as shit, so it'll be split into two parts, but 🧵🧵🧵

there's a line somewhere in one of the long Pynchon books about how very strong hash will turn all of your reality into a design on a Persian rug and I didn't really believe that until I smoked this shit

I think it ultimately pales to GR and AtD as a complete novel, but Mason and Dixon are without question two of Pynchon's best characters, probably THE best. so finely wrought, so human, so gently funny, just perfection

realizing that Pynchon's repeated use of things like "a-and", "b-but" and "or-or" in his authorial voice probably has no real deeper meaning other than to lend the entirety of said voice a bit of an air of Porky Pig

i think a thing with mason and dixon is that many will call it pynch's masterpiece simply because it's the most respectable of his large trilogy; it isn't a frightening, constantly shifting cipher that may itself be alive like gravity's rainbow, and it lacks the gargantuan list/

every version of this story seems to agree that Eulalia taunted her captors to her last breath, and upon dying, a white dove is said to have flown from her mouth, with snow immediately covering her body like a white shroud, another very Bolano-esque image

i don't really know what he's getting at by naming this lawyer after Eulalia, it just seems to me that this was all at least informing his decision, and i think it goes to show the level of sheer density Bolano was working with in this book. ☮️☮️☮️
