Well now. We have not been in the office much throughout the past few months and the toll on the site is apparent.
A few trips abroad combined with a busy schedule during this major transfer to mobile editing have left the staff
in disarray. We have taken steps to maintain this system of bells and whistles during such turmoil, and so far
things are smooth. The only downside is the lack of updating here.
"The current social and political climate on Facebook is helping to create an easy path for our direction lately.
Between the Wolves and the weather outside the office windows, we are actually doing reasonably well for such a
small group and considering our identity. The past few days have shown us that early spring can be calming despite
our sour location. The clouds and rain make for a dim and shadowy atmosphere which in turn allows us to focus upon
that which is most important... The obsession.
Considering the sheer number of descriptive essays and shining paragraphs devoted to Her over the past year,
another is far from necessary to convey our depth of feeling. Still, such things feel necessary beyond drawing
breath. We have placed many images among these pages in order to attempt piecing together Her features, each
providing a small segment of Her overall appearance. Unfortunately, this is ridiculous and impossible. Only we
have knowledge of Her look and the images convey nothing to the working public (that is, if anyone is seeing).
With the number of difficulties which have arisen since summer last, we are actually surprised to be above ground
at all. Each day without the vision pushes and pushes... Each thought swirls through the fog and leaves us
daydreaming. Eventually the dreaming will not stop and we will withdraw from society completely. This process will
not be difficult and even feels welcomed on some levels -- desired, wanted. The above statement regarding social
media (antisocial media) is a catalyst. The last few years have seen dramatic increases in apathy as well as
decreases in sensitivity between individuals. This is unacceptable and no one sees the damage to society as a
whole. There are already so many reasons to withdraw, however people are number one.
Speaking of withdrawal, we recently spent ten days on a cruise to Alaska and the stark contrast between that
beautiful place and this shithole glows more than ever. We have dreamed for years of escaping to a cooler and less
populated locale, and the glimpse simply puts us further outside present society. More people equals more issues.
In a town of less than eight thousand, those issues are minimal to say the least.
The combination of our dissatisfaction with the direction of society and losing such a wondrous and beautiful soul
which was connected to us is pressing like no one before. Small steps toward large changes are necessary to keep
us sane and relatively grounded. The alternative is not pleasant. Currently the only path is attempting to enjoy
the day-to-day essentials of living and processing those items necessary for continued forward motion. The
occasional sightings of form are difficult with which to live, honestly. We see and we fall a bit further. This is
to be expected considering Her absence. We had it all and now we have little more than the tiniest periods of
happiness. Understanding the depressing situation She caused last year is just not available and we are even more
obsessed with the form She displayed naturally. Coupled with Her incredible softness of thought and soulful caring,
that form has all but ruined us now.
Organization, patient planning, and comfort are the three aspects of these days which we cannot lose. If such a
thing takes place, we are dead and in the ground for good. Fuck."
