david foster wallace is now with the dead of their own hand... tragic.

he joins hart crane, rothko, gorky, schwartz, plath, chatterton and untold hundreds more who none of us have ever heard of. perhaps this seals his genius. there are no arguments from the grave.

off his meds, he fucking hung himself.

and let his wife come home to that...

ok, i'm done.

a sad reminder that creation and destruction are always one in the mind and in the life of the artist. when one of us jumps ship, it diminishes us all. sometimes it's the hardest thing in the world to just hang on.
