My issue with Hunter is that he tried to get a snuff film with a child made at Bohemian Grove. The camera guy turned him down but he probably made it with someone else. Look into this guy.

Happily. I had a friend who was serving a life sentence. She read fear and loathing while she was inside. Coincidentally, she sent him a letter, thanking him for his authorship. He sent her a reply, inquiring as to her circumstances. She told him about how she ended up in the situation she was in, which were anything but black and white, and he was sympathetic to her circumstances. He reached out to some celebrity friends, Warren Zevon, Benito Del Toro, John Cusack, etc, and politicized her circumstances. This in turn put public pressure on the legal system to right a wrong, and his efforts were successful, and now my friend has the gift of life because HST was a man of conscience.

HST is the only person beyond family that I remember exactly where I was when I heard he had died. It was a Kennedy moment. There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.

He said we'd still be in the Vietnam war if there hadn't been a draft. That's why we've been in Afghanistan for 20 years.

It's nice to see Hunter on his best behavior. He's a shy Southern gentleman when called upon. Self-effacing really.

To live with Honesty and ownership of oneself in achievement and perceived failure is the way of the Hunter. No time for doubt. Gotta keep moving.

Everyone needs to understand something... a alter ego is just a way of being able to say the things you really want to say without any accountability and speak the real truth.

The Hit Lister I don’t believe in alter egos. They are false. Gary Glitter fucked kids via his alter ego, the singer and performer, but Paul Francis Gadd did the time, the person, because he was the fuck up. He paid the price for his alter ego’s actions because alter ego isn’t real. 🤷‍♂️ Ego is dangerous enough, an alternate ego on top of that is a psychiatric adventure. Unless you’re living in a comic. Are you living in a comic? Alter ego/fake trolling account. Tomato/potato.

For everyone saying Charlie Rose is a bad interviewer who asks boring questions... I think most of what he asks is quite simple and open ended. His very simple questions lead to more elaborate and complex answers due to their vagueness. I think he's great because of this.

Road man for the Great Lords of Perma. Or Permit? The Great Loop. I never heard him talk about this. I wonder what he was talking about. I like how all hosts and people who interview him are unsure of how to precede. It’s like they’re dealing with a violent child they don’t want to set off. Or a baby tiger cub. He’s hard as fuck to understand here. Props to Charlie Rose for being chipper and smiling and playing with him, having fun in the interview.

“Karma” he’s talking about being judged for this lifetime and returning as what you deserve. Nothing complex.
