I do find it a little difficult to understand how the same author wrote this short story and the (from my point of view) missing the point take of a blurry jpeg of the web. But even if I personally think he missed the mark on that particular take, I genuinely appreciate that he took the time to write his preliminary thoughts and share them with us- he has a delightful way with words.

- Baeocystin 4y agoSorry. I should have included the link. Hiidrew is correct, that is the piece I was referring to.
