Is it on sight or is this a case of Substack Fingers?

Gogo! what an angel :') hypothetically, what if you made t-shirts with an image of Gogo, accompanied by hand-drawn text that reads "love revolves" to celebrate one year of I WILL DO WHATEVER I WANT...!

this was like sitting in a warm bath of existential dread with glitter in it. the dolphin gate rant? art. the mezcal tampon? journalism. “love revolves” made me clutch my chest like an elderly widow seeing her husband’s ghost. also I’d 1000% wear a shirt with Gogo and that phrase on it. this newsletter is the only place where slipping mid-bush-trim and hitting tweezers like a tuning fork somehow exist in the same spiritual plane. congrats on one year—you’ve built a tiny chaotic universe and I’m staying here forever.

I live in LA and haven’t been to a 99 cent store in a decade but it was definitely a place I loved to wander when I first moved here in 2005. I loved the bizarre flavors of Doritos and all the cheap candles.

Mackenzie one and only. 💘 p.s. How do we celebrate? By listening Kool & The Gang - Celebration on repeat, of course.
