Dear people,
Whenever I start writing a letter to the world, it always turns out I'm writing to you. In the words of the late, great Bill Hicks, I'm a misanthropic humanist: I think you're great, in theory. I'd be a member of his People Who Hate People political party if that brilliantly self-defeating oxymoron of an idea could ever get off the ground. Still, even though some of you are stupid restaurant customers, guys with loud car speakers, or responsible for cars parked in the bike lane, others of you are my friends, who — like green beans, cats, and David Bowie — are so awesome as to convince me the world isn't all bad. So people, here's to you: the cause of, and solution to, all of life's problems.
Love,
-Tracy

About Me
- Tracy
- New York, New York, United States
- I like writing letters, but I often leave them unfinished. Other times I write letters that I couldn't send even if I finished them, but even that shouldn't be enough of an excuse to keep me from writing. My hope for this project is that having a place to post these unaddressable letters (puns intended) will free me to write them.
