Toward the end, he’d switched to Enron. Their eyes had narrowed. This had been the result of his therapist’s having ordered him to use the internet to familiarize himself w/ the events of the previous decade. He had, as she’d quite rightly pointed out, missed all of that.

Milgrim thought about Hollis Henry, the woman Bigend had brought along to the restaurant. She hadn’t seemed to be part of Blue Ant, and she’d also seemed somehow familiar, but he didn’t think they’d met before.
Pleasant enough, Hollis Henry, at least if you weren’t Bigend.

The☎️continued to ring. It was as absurdly heavy as ever.
HOLLIS: Coprophagia. [Briskly, as if announcing a busy dept in a hospital]
BIGEND: Hollis, hello.
H: …
H: Hello, Hubertus
B: I saw Reg
H: I know
B: I told him to ask you to call
H: I didn’t
B: Good to hear your voice
H: It’s late

“Why did you take my picture?” Milgrim asked, unexpectedly bypassing his robot voice and sounding like a completely different person, the one you automatically and immediately arrest.

Harrods, along Brompton Road in London, and surrounding stores, seen from the northeast. An LTI TXII taxi can be seen in black and a turquoise LTI TX4 taxi and a WHV class London bus on route 14 are visible as well.
Inchmale hailed a cab for Hollis, the kind that had always been black, when she’d first known this city.
“Their money’s heavy,” he said, dropping a loose warm mass of pound coins into her hand. “Buys many whores.”

I've been reading @greatdismal.bsky.social's Blue Ant Trilogy and it has been useful to see someone who represents to me as having autism and ADHD be presented not as hero, superhero or genius, but as a survivor. #reading #blueant #neurodiversity #ZeroHistory
The cover of William Gibson's book, pattern recognition.

This is not an AI image, it's a photo of my copy of Pattern Recognition. What a great book and a great trilogy!
Thank you so much, William Gibson! I appreciate you!

the cover of an old western paperback novel entitled "The Secret Brand" by Gene Austin. the illustration is a cowboy laying on his back, tied up with rope, about to be attacked with a red-hot branding iron. The description of the story is "there was nothing waiting for him but trouble. Gun trouble. Killing trouble." The price on the cover is 24 cents, U.S.
CLAMMY: Next to fucking impossible to find [as if suddenly taking her, to her amazement and for the first time, seriously]
HOLLIS: Someone told me it was a ‘secret brand.’
C: Not when you know. Just very hard to find. Thin on the fucking ground, your Gabriel Hounds.

£££👖shop in London:
“20-oz.” the handsomely graying professor of denim pronounced, the Gabriel Hounds jacket spread before her on a foot-thick slab of polished hardwood, atop what Hollis guessed had been the cast-iron legs of a factory lathe. "Slubby…this roughness. In the weave"

The door opened, revealing a football player w/a 1980s porn haircut.
MILGRIM: I have your $
🏈: Put it on the counter
M: I need to make tracings…to capture the detail.
🏈: Who’s in the car?
M: My friend.
🏈: Why can’t you drive?
M: DUI [It was true, at least in some philosophical sense]

They were headed inland thru a landscape that reminded Milgrim of driving somewhere near L.A., to a destination you wouldn’t be particularly anxious to reach. This abundantly laned highway, lapped by the lots of outlet malls & a Home Depot the size of a cruise ship. >>

A model wearing a "Klein blue" suit.
CAYCE POLLARD: There were people who wanted what I wore. What I curated, Bigend would have said.
HOLLIS HENRY: He’s curating suits that do retinal damage, these days.
CP: He has no taste at all, but behaves as if he’s had it removed, elective surgery. Perhaps he did.

Milgrim took 1 photo each of the 4 cargo pockets, turned the #pants inside out, & photographed them again. He arranged them more neatly on the counter, spread a sheet of paper over them &, with a graphite stick, made a rubbing. …He liked doing this…something inherently satisfying. >
