Tim Barrus: On Writing
![]()
People will tell you to hang in there. It’s not malevolent. It’s stupid, but not outright evil. It’s just sound coming from a mouth, signaling closure. I’m autistic. I do not get this stuff. What does it mean when their eyes look up into the sky. There is a message…

Tim Barrus: Ezra Klein on Hope
![]()
Tim Barrus and the New York Times. Ezra Klein is the brightest of the brightest. I have never heard him say the word Aspergers. I embrace the abberation. I hide behind it. It’s Asperger’s fault, not mine. I am a criminal. Does that surprise. Criminality came long before sexuality or…

Tim Barrus: Suicide is a Political Act
![]()
Tim Barrus, New York Times
I am a communist. I read Ezra Klein in fragments. Ezra connects the fragments. Ezra is the best in the business. New York Times marketing is “offering” Ezra Klein to its readership as their flaming progressive. This, of course, is patently absurd. Ezra is careful.…

![]()
Indoors the void. The cunt’s tide she rules like a kingdom, but indoors, there is just an oil lamp who makes light for some strange thing in broken sleep. She reaches for the pretense of my soul, I do not have one, being a witch and all, the devil’s anger…

Tim Barrus: Likker Head Speed Freak Laser Beams From Mars and Walmart

The land itself is tough. And often ugly. Far and away. Fish or cut bait. Far and away, it’s finger fucking cold. Far and away the widows were the witches, most of whom were only waiting, and some would walk around in the woods at night like crows.

Tim Barrus: Pushing the Weight of Gravitas Itself
![]()
A bear is mainly teeth and butt. Black bears are more interested in what is inside your backpack, maybe goodies. A brown bear is not interested in your backpack. No. He smells you. Unless you have some serious bear spray, you are going to die.

TIM BARRUS: CENSORSHIP AT THE NEW YORK TIMES
Seriously, okay, they get credit. It was one in a million. Have you been to the Casino in Reno. It’s Over. Make these old people go home. I want to see cowboys and horses in Flag. I am a communist. I crave…
