Tibbar Draws

I've been attending the meetings out of curiosity; I hear the restaurant's music sometimes, but I'm far enough away that it doesn't actually bother me. I rarely go out at night, so I hadn't encountered the "nuisance" aspects of it, which include lots of loitering drunk people, mysterious box trucks with no license plates blocking bike lanes while unloading, and bouncers swearing and trying to stop and frisk people walking past the restaurant.

("Why does a restaurant have bouncers?" you ask. Well, one of the complaints was "He's operating a nightclub but just using a restaurant license to do it.")

Anyway, I was intrigued to attend the latest video call because last time ONE DERANGED PERSON got on the line and spent ten minutes telling everyone else that the place is fine and if it isn't nobody cares and if you do you're a narc. I wanted to see if they were gonna come back to rant again and they did, but they got stymied by the moderator, who insisted that if you wanted to talk you had to "raise your hand" in the video call and they clearly couldn't figure out how to do that.

But then. After the airing of grievances and the owner's lawyer apologizing for no-showing at the last meeting, the alderman's spokesperson got on the line. FIFTY MINUTES into a one hour meeting, she said, "Before you inform the owner about the steps he needs to take to prevent this from becoming a legal issue, the Alderman has a question. He understands that the building landlord has served the owner with an eviction notice for the business, and we'd like to know if you and your client are aware of this?"

Every visible face on the video call did a jaw drop. It was awesome. I was muted and I still went "OooooohOOOOOOHHHHH!"

So yeah turns out the owner is "a little behind on the rent" but is confident he can bounce back, and then the moderator gave him a list of twenty things he needed to do (or not do) to fix the non-rent-related problems, two of which were "Stop doing unlicensed bottle service" and "No sparklers indoors".

I knew the one deranged person defending the restaurant's activities had to be known to the owner and they are.

So that means that after seeing how Renfield is making his pets eat eachother in the order of the food chain, then it's possible that he will be supervised with the sparrow since the bird could be helping Renfield in his recovery right Seward? Right?

Nonetheless, this entry is very important since we see the (very unprofessional) progression of Seward with his biased treatment towards Renfield. It might be entirely unintentional, but there is a critical reading of Seward as a doctor within the asylum system of the time, and how its entire structure allowed the abuse of vulnerable people at the hands of doctors who saw them more as a means to "understand" the human psyche instead of patients that needed help with their mental illnesses.

and i'm then imagining him being a little startled the first time yuna turns to him and includes him in the discussion on purpose because...oh? you want?? him to speak up here, too??? o-okay. and oh, this is kind of nice, actually, being a team with yuna. she's taking the lead here, but ilya is charming on his own, so they're REALLY doing a great job here, and it's actually kind of?? fun?? picking up the conversational pitches she's tossing to him?? and seeing her be so pleased when he hits them exactly how she wants?? and sets her up for another good move in the conversation?? oh my god?? this feels so nice?? she's clearly so proud of me?? i'm clearly doing a good job by her standards and she's pleased??? i'm having a great time with my mom??? #mymom

and afterwards, i feel like yuna might pull him to a quiet corner or something and just, "you were a little quiet at the start. are you not interested or something? it's okay if you're not." because she's used to having to get answers from shane that way, but ilya is just no! sounds great! thank you. :) anyone else you want to talk to here? :)

Imagine being a demodex follicularis, watching your beautiful child sleep, nestled safe in the warm depths of a hair root, washed clean and fed by the sebum gland, as a herd of D. brevis graze by on the great plane of the cheek, over the pores where your most ancient ancestors have lived for a thousand generations and where your descendants - Your sleeping child's children, and grandchildren, for another thousand generations - will live. Feeling the pulse of the living earth around you as the sky above you sails through uncountable colours - Light, dark, distant, close, through tremendous cold that makes the earth rear up around you into barrows ten times your height, and heat that makes it run with salt water and oil - but being kept safely warm by the constant beat of the earth's pulse and the infinite sough of its hot breath. And knowing that your world was alive! Had a mind and dreams and a family like your own... How beautiful!
