Some negative attacks surprise me but ultimately they are comedy despite the person wishing to hurt me not getting it. Their version of reality is threatened by my version. Something like that. A fantasy to punish me because I left a band thirty years ago that they love. My friend left a cushy job. From her perspective it wasn’t so cushy. I chimed in on her thread “who would walk away from a sure thing?” I thought it was funny coming from me but then realized maybe nobody necessarily knows I’m sarcastic. Jokes are dangerous. Bulgakov died never knowing his sarcasm wins a future nobel prize and becomes mandatory reading in the same place where they would have murdered him for making fun.
