“I’ve walked across the sun. I’ve seen events so tiny and so fast they hardly can be said to have occurred at all, but you…you are just a man. And the world’s smartest man means no more to me than does its smartest termite.â€
Doctor Manhattan, Watchmen
Another blogger has bought the farm. Hunter Huxley has deleted his Twitter and locked his website. I found out yesterday when Anoukange mentioned it over at Sofia’s. That’s the biggest problem with Google Reader – half the time you don’t know a blog is gone until someone points it out for you.
The blogosphere is a very anarchic place. Like Spain in the time of the Cid, new fiefdoms are constantly rising to power and being cut down, abandoned, or forgotten, only for the process to repeat itself, a never-ending cycle of death and rebirth. Some fiefdoms survive and thrive, only to be abandoned for various reasons. A few make to the top of the junkyard, to be praised, admired, hated, despised. But the king still bleeds as much as any peasant.
In the nine months since I started this blog, I’ve seen my own fair share of taifas, a number of which preceded my own and influenced my own work, perish or vanish. Before Hunter called it quits, Virgin at 50 deleted his blog out of the blue. Anakin Niceguy said his goodbyes. Novaseeker shut down his site, though he’s still an active presence in the manosphere. Cless Alvein vanished into the ether, though he was kind enough to offer an explanation as to why. Assanova retired. Ganttsquarry went on a vacation from which he never returned. A.J. Travis abandoned the second American Revolution. Girl Game, which Welmer once referred to as a “rival†to The Spearhead, has shriveled up like a raisin in the sun as its contributors focus on their own projects. Bhetti Ameen was cut from CORRUPT’s masthead. Of course, many new taifas, such as those of Athol Kay, Advocatus Diaboli, Snark, Alkibiades & Talleyrand, Krauser, Alte, SDaedalus, and Ulysses have risen in the meantime, while older ones such as Chuck Ross, OneSTDV, and Obsidian have become movers and shakers in their own right. But we always linger on the losses.
There are occasions when I contemplate shuttering this blog for good and putting my cerebrum-semen to other use. I do probably 60 – 70 percent of my writing and blog surfing at work, the general do-nothingness of public sector employment cutting down significantly on the amount of “real” free time I spend as Ferdinand Bardamu, so that’s not an issue. (If I ever have to go back to working a real job, you bloggers who depend on my weekly linkage posts for hits are fucked.) But writing this thing is mentally exhausting. As Hemingway put it, easy reading is damned hard writing. You can track my general mood swings by studying my writing going all the way back to July – I’ve gone from cocky to thoughtful to forlorn and back again. A general lack of discipline keeps me from focusing on any topic for too long, which sometimes makes me wonder how I got to having over 9,000 readers a month. (Beyond my never-ending campaign of merciless blog-whoring, that is.) I seriously wonder how guys who consistently post quality material on a daily basis, like Chuck Ross, OneSTDV, and “Chateau” (seriously, was Sir Stephen already taken?) can pull it off without losing their marbles.
But in spite of all that, I know I can’t quit. I like money, blog fame and praise, but my purpose in being here is not primarily for those things. I’m here because at the end of the day, I still enjoy writing this blog. A public forum where I can hash out thoughtcrime, one that people actually enjoy and pay attention to, is not something that can be disposed of lightly. Plus there’s an undeniable ego boost that comes from knowing that the nonsensical drivel I publish here enlightens, enriches, and entertains others.
If there comes a day that I no longer feel that joy of accomplishment when I hit the Publish button, that day is the one when In Mala Fide is done. Until then, or barring some unfortunate catastrophe, here I will stay.

I’m wondering if Hunter is not part of Sofia’s fabulous mind creation.
[A quick check of IP addresses says...no. - ed.]
Of course that would mean that she is dating herself, but those are some great boobs so maybe I would date myself too. ??
It is a lot of work. And, to be honest, I’m starting to run out of things to blog about. I might just end up doing my weekly Link Round Up and ending the other posts.
I have found it wonderful to see how many women agree with me. That has really surprised and pleased me.
So nice of you to mention me, Ferdinand.
Please don’t quit your blog unless you really feel you have to.
When stuck in the office doing paperwork for hours on end I rely on being able to blogsurf after each completed task to keep me sane.
There are so few blogs out there (other than the ones on your linkage) that are actually interesting.
“The blogosphere is a very anarchic place.” In AD 1031, the taifas proliferated especially in southern Spain. In AD 2010, the anglophone world has its Internet taifas awaiting either El Mundo Hispanico or Eurabia. According to Céline, men are even more petty than cowardly. Thus after white European civilization dies, El Mundo and Eurabia shall probably destroy each other, leaving the East Asian civilization to pick up the pieces. Five hundred years from now, a few Chinamen with antiquarian interests might read Ferdinand’s blog … probably not. Out of ten thousand Pepys’s diaries only one or two survive.
“Wherever one looks, truth has fallen to money. Wherever money is insufficient to bury the truth, ignorance, propaganda, and short memories finish the job.”

“Anti-Western ideologies have penetrated the very core of our societies at the same time we are under siege from outside.” – from Fjordman’s blog
“In fact, if Christ himself stood in my way, I, like Nietzsche, would not hesitate to squish him like a worm.” – Che Guevara
Edward, for some reason your words remind me of this poem:-
OZYMANDIAS
I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed.
And on the pedestal these words appear:
“My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!”
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.”
I think it was Napoleon who said: “Glory is fleeting, but obscurity is forever”
To some of us this comes as rather a relief.
FB, great post. I feel the pain when a blog disappears. I’m still hoping Vanishing American will reanimate.
[That's a strange one. She disappeared around August and didn't update again until Christmas - presumably an automatically scheduled post. Wonder if she's okay. - ed.]
PS
Edward, you’re not connected to Edward Thwaites of the Heptateuchus, Liber Job et Evangelium Nicodemi Anglo-Saxonicae (1698) by any chance?
Damned good read even three hundred and twelve years on. So much for glory being fleeting.
material dependent, for some the personal cost, being out comes with a heavy toll. my blog’s been through several incarnations out of necessity…and even now, lurkers from the old blog, the reasons why i deleted the old blogs, track me down through the blogs i frequent.
blogging, for an anonymous activity, is fraught with personal peril.
Also noteworthy is Michael Blowhard’s retirement from 2Blowhards.
[Left him off because he's still writing under his real name. Won't mention it, but poke around my blogroll and you'll figure it out. - ed.]
I was under the impression that “Chateau” is Roissy’s informal nickname for his blog, not his own alternate name. The “facilities,” in other words, not the host himself. If that’s what he calls himself now, it’s ghey.
["Chateau" is his new name. Check the tops of his posts. It makes sense in a way - in Story of O, Roissy WAS a chateau - but it's still lame.]
It is hard to keep up the new content. I’ve been blogging elsewhere since 2003 but the content changed as my life changed. What I’ve found is that the writing often remains useful – to someone else – even if it is no longer useful to you. One of my biggest hit-generating posts is when I blogged on my dog Rosie’s amputation and added periodic follow ups (with photos) on her progress. I still get people clicking on pics of her surgical sutures every week, although this problem is no longer one directly relevant to me or my life.
Often blogging is just social history being laid down on the personal level. So if the content stays up you can see the progression of how things play out from idea to implementation. There are a lot of cautionary tales being written down as we speak, but how many of them will remain public? Very few.
“A.J. Travis abandoned the second American Revolution.”
Were the Evil Ones shaking in their boots when they read this (if at all)? X)
Roissy made an interesting comment this week regarding his prolific posting. He says he spends about 3-4 hours on Sunday knocking out his posts for the week, then publishes daily
Corrupt: I voluntarily left because I was losing the enjoyment/inspiration. I didn’t make a huge announcement because it didn’t seem to me like there was much of a following.
[I followed it. Hell, your writings over there got me reading the site to begin with. - ed.]
Oh no you didn’t! You didn’t just say GG had wrinkles. *faint*
Get the WP app on your iPhone/ iTouch or iPad. Half of my posts are now initially composed on my iPhone. It is quite easy to create a skeleton post on that app, and flesh it out later.
[Don't have a smartphone...yet. Contemplating getting a Motorola Droid when my current dumbphone gives it up. - ed.]
and don’t worry about your productivity at the government job. They are hiring you to warm the chair and spend you pay (velocity of money).
[If I was worried about job productivity, I'd still be loading trucks for UPS.]
The one I really miss is an Italian blogger who called herself “Joy of Knitting,” though I don’t think she ever actually wrote about knitting…she wrote about political affairs from a very philosophical viewpoint. One day she just disappeared & her e-mail address didn’t work either…seemed sort of sinister given that she’d mentioned she encountered some pretty extreme hostility from the local leftists.
I don’t see myself quitting any time soon.
He says he spends about 3-4 hours on Sunday knocking out his posts for the week, then publishes daily
I do the same, on Tuesday nights when my husband is away.
I can write a comment like this in 5 minutes, but a whole post takes time and full concentration. The nature of housewifery means that I have lots of 15 minute breaks, spread throughout the day. I actually compose the posts and even the longer comments in my head while I’m doing housework, and then type them up quickly. Sometimes I’ll go through major revisions mentally, or even change the subject, before I even get around to typing anything.
Although I write about 2 weeks out, so this sometimes has the strange effect that I’m not in the mood for the subject matter being addressed. Sometimes there is a post on a serious subject when I’m feeling silly, or a frivolous subject when I’m depressed. So the posts and comment threads don’t really match sometimes.
Why not join the iPad cult? I am considering getting one next month.. then I can make most of my posts from my iPad rather than a combo of my iPhone and laptop.

um, and hunter huxley and i ARE the same person. it’s such a clever ruse that i use a proxy site for a new zealand IP. mmmm, hunter.
Ferdinand:
Oh and time/energy too.
I’ll let you be the first to know of any future ventures, then!
If you think you’re going to pull interesting topics and discussions out of the air everyday, then you’ll go crazy and get tired within no time. No one does it. I tried to do that for awhile, but it’s simply not possible to mine your soul for such wisdom and insight every single day (especially if you have a job, unlike one particular rather verbose blogger).
But no one does that, not even blogging Gods like Auster and Sailer.
The key: Peruse the news and politics sites (Slate.com, NYT op-ed, Hot Air, Salon.com, HuffingtonPost, Drudge Report, other HBD/Roissysphere sites, Newsweek, Time, etc…) and comment on articles, opinion pieces, and current events presented there. There’s such a huge wealth of material out there every day that you won’t have a problem coming up with a topic. And any time you run into something interesting (i.e. a Youtube video), favorite it and then use it later.
Additionally, go to Google news search and put in a good keyword concerning your blog’s topics (you’re a little more expansive than most though). It will give you more stuff happening that you can comment on.
If you read HalfSigma, Sailer, Auster, Mangan, etc…, this is what they do. Mostly, blogging is about discussing current events, not making up something great every day. Guys that do that can only post sporadically, like Moldbug.
Good??
A lot of times, you need a good foil. Look at many of Auster’s more erudite content: He’s either arguing with someone (which is basically everyone) or having a discussion with someone (like Kristor).
Same with Obsidian. For once, Obsidian actually set a good example.
[Hmmm, now that I think about it, a least a third of my early blogging was me insulting someone else, debunking someone else's arguments, or just outright flaming. Rule 4 never let me down. - ed.]
What do you plan on doing if you stop writing?
[Go back to playing mindless Flash games on company time. - ed.]
Men’s Rights blogs in particular, lose steam because they venture into cliched art of passive-aggressive whining. Sure they care about men, sure they wish changes would be made to the legal system, but by and large, they consistently fail to provide common sense solutions to the problem of Feminism in men’s daily lives…
… and then there was m a n h o o d a c a d e m y . c o m
I agree mostly with what OneSTDV says. A couple of times a day I go through Google News and type in certain key words that have tended to give me quality material to post on. I often sift through academic papers to glean any insight into recent scientific studies about human nature or human behavior. I’ve also picked out several key targets towards which to direct my vitriol – Feministing is the main one, Larry Auster is up there, President Obama is a bloggers giving-tree, Ta-Nehisi Coates has emerged as a viable source of idiocy for me to poop on.
Other than those go-to sources, I’ll rely on sports commentary, rape commentary, Game commentary, or I’ll dig back into my sordid past to come up with something I think is either funny or applies to any of the topics readers would be interested in reading about.
To tell the truth, for me it is a lot of work. I’ve contemplated hanging up the mouse for a while, but there is an insatiable desire in me to write more, write better, write insightfully. Finding topics isn’t as much of a burden to me as the feeling that I left something unsaid, or I didn’t make a point as clearly and coherently (or I flat out just got the point wrong) as I would have liked to.
I’ll give it to you Ferdinand, as I’ve said in the past, the dustup you created when you emerged last year created a lot of questions and ideas which served as ample blog fodder not only for me but for a lot of other fledgling blogs. It was a good thing. It was exciting because it brought to mind images of what I feel a Greek Salon would have been like with various minds sitting around bouncing ideas off of one another. There would be a lot of shit spouted out that made no sense, but by the sheer magnitude of the number of ideas that came out of it something good would stick.
So, what can we dust up next? I’m down for anything.
[Can't say anything specific, but let's just say that I've been granted the opportunity to spread our ideas in a new, widely read venue. If I can get off my ass long enough to write something, sparks will fly once more. - ed.]
so in case anyone cares (i have just read that you like explanations, FB), i deleted my blog in part because it was burning out and i didn’t want it to become cookie-cutter, in part because HH was [unintentionally] a character and that became limiting for me, and in part because i felt i was vaguely associated with the “manosphere.” i like and lurk these parts, but i really just want to be my own thing now; not part of any community. but maybe it’s just inevitable that you end up being part of some sub-sphere. i don’t know. i’ll have to see what happens.
thanks for all the links over the months, anyway.
– the blogger formally known as HH.
[Much appreciated, man. One good rule I follow is to never leave a party without saying goodbye.
And I presume you're the "A." that Sofia's been posting about lately? - ed.]
Sometimes people get hammered. I can only post when I have time. Probably need to get one of those cheap netbooks.
yeah, i am that A.
[In which case, congratulations. You know what for. - ed.]
All blogs that fail to monetize successfully ultimately close shop.
It’s very diffcult to actually monetize without a clear plan for a product and/or advertising plan to support the core content of the blog.
OneSTDV has good ideas, some of which I already use, albeit in modified form. I read the fora (NG & HB mainly), and I get a lot of ideas there. Oftentimes, guys will post links to interesting articles, and I’ll bookmark them. Sometimes, readers send me interesting links. Between those two methods alone, I’ve garnered enough material to keep me going a year or so if I were to consistently post three times a week. For me, running out of material isn’t an issue; it’s finding time an energy to write in the first place.
@ SDaedalus: “I think it was Napoleon who said: “Glory is fleeting, but obscurity is foreverâ€
To some of us this comes as rather a relief.”
Care to expand on that?
I think a blogger’s career may have a natural arc to it, as well as a finite one. It’s a funny form. You aren’t being paid. Many of (ahem) us write or wrote under pseudonyms, often during downtime at the office. And no matter how much stuff you bring to your blogging initially there can come a time when the ooomph goes. You’ve said what you had to say, or at least enough of it so that the fire diminishes.
Incidentally, this is different, I found, than professional writing. In pro journalistic writing you’re generally covering something — you have a beat. So a given article you write might be 95% the story and the facts, and 5% stuff you personally brought to it. The ongoing beat carries you forward, as does the fact that you can never quite say fully what it is you have to say. In a blog posting, it might be the reverse — 95% what you bring, 5% facts and linkage and such. Which means, practically speaking, that you can write yourself out. You wake up one day and realize you’ve said what you had to say. I don’t think many writers ever experienced this before the advent of blogging.
The thing that kept me blogging for as long as I did (7 years!) was the friendships with visitors. It got to be less about me putting on a show for people and more about me kind of being the maitre d’ at a restaurant that a lot of groovy people dropped by. My blog postings got to be less like lectures or tv hosting and more like conversation starters. For a long while, after I kind of exhausted my own energy I surfed on the energy that visitors to my blog brought.
Anyway, I do think that most bloggers have found or will find that the blogging has its own natural life-span. If you’re doing it to promote yourself professionally (Sailer is a god, but he’s also using his blog as part of his campaign to succeed professionally), maybe you can go on much longer, or if you’re doing it sparingly, so that you’re always keeping something in reserve, maybe you can do it for longer. But if you’re using it to share what you’ve seen and found out, well, that’s a finite thing.
Roissy’s amazing — the energy is so exuberant and dynamic. How long can he keep it up for? Amazing he’s managed to be as dynamic, smart and funny as he’s been for as long as he’s been.
Many tks to Ferdinand for his own great blogging.
It’s a funny thing — writing without getting paid, often under a pseudonym …
I really-really miss many of the people who used to visit my blog, by the way, PA prominent among them …
Sofia and A will be “one” soon enough…was just kiddin my love ;) Cheers to A, agreed.

Well, the maxim does take the edge off the rat-race pressure to achieve.
It’s possible Ozymandias enjoyed his life sneering cold command (although it must have got a bit chilly occasionally) but what if he didn’t? What if all of his actions were designed towards being remembered for posterity? How unfortunate he would have been if Shelley hadn’t come along to immortalise him (and even then, only as somebody who has been forgotten).
I’m making two points here. Firstly, that it can be a relief to think, when one feels one’s achievements pale beside someone else of similar talents who has been luckier (or possibly more hard-working), that it won’t matter very much fifty years hence.
Secondly, and this is possibly more important, that we shouldn’t necessarily spend our life doing things we don’t really like (or doing too much of one thing to the exclusion of other things we might like more) just for status & recognition. I made a related point re. lawyers’ rankings over on the Legal Satyricon. Life is too short to spend it trying to be top dog purely for the sake of being top dog. The difficulty is that society (and the competitive element in human nature) is structured in such a way that the impulse to do this is often irresistible, particularly if one has an ego. But it can be ultimately self-defeating when one looks back at the end of one’s life at years passed.
That’s what I meant.
Re my comment “particularly if everyone has an ego”, obviously everyone has an ego but some people’s egos crave social recognition & approval more than others. I think these are the people who should bear this maxim in mind.
It looks like Prime (Beta Revolution) has joined the departed. Another blogocide (complete with 404ed pages)

[Oh COME on! This is getting to be re-fucking-diculous! - ed.]
I think I read in an SEO study recently that they found 80% of the Blogosphere (not to be confused with the whole internet) is completely refreshed approximately every 18 months or so. They basically compare it to that of your skin, where after a certain amount of years it has been completely replaced.
Speaking of Assanova, he actually has been posting recently so don’t think he really retired. I sent an email to Virgin at 50 to see what happened but no response yet, will let you know if I get one.
I occasionally attend strip clubs. It usually helps get me in the mood for socialization if I have been in the cave for too long (sometimes the case since I work from home). I work on getting pumped up for the verbal sparring I’ll have to endure later by talking to strippers. Deflecting their “do you want a dance” or “what’s your name/where are you from” script for the longest possible time is my main metric of success (my record is a little above 30 consecutive minutes).They are also great for practicing negs and gauging possible reactions to them.
If and when I get a few dances eventually, then they are off my list, as they no longer serve their verbal-sparring purpose: I have officially failed their shit-test and paid for their company.
Anyways, I sometimes build a little bit of a relationship with these gals. It’s not a real relationship, but the kind you would build with the bartender or with a bouncer at your regular spot.
These girls come and go all the time, as everyone knows. When some of my sparring partners disappears out of the blue I sometimes ask around to figure out what happened. But most times, I don’t really remember their “stage name” or even if I do, I’m almost positive I can’t trust the info I get from other girls.
When blogs I have been reading disappear with no explanation, I have the same feeling: a feeling of having had no meaning whatsoever on the other person.
I become more cynical one stripper or one blog at a time.
Not Prime.
This is getting real fucking ridiculous.
If it makes anyone feel better, tomorrow I move from a cube to a corner office in which it will be impossible to sneak up behind me. My blog productivity should just improve, especially since I keep getting to hire people and thus avoid having to do much actual work. I keep asking for more work, but my boss just tells me to keep motivating people.
Everyone romanticizes going Galt, but going Stadler is not without its charms, especially when you’re in a private sector gig that lives off public sector largesse. There was a time when I would’ve sickened myself, but people like feudalism in practice, just not in name. I’m just going with the flow.
It has been somewhat surprising to see a lot of blogs close shop unexpectedly but I just figured that was part of the whole experience. My blog which started out as an outlet to help me cure my incessant insomnia through short stories has changed to talk about my imperfect PUA adventures in a PC SWPL Seattle. I think that a lot of bloggers start out with the idea that they will never run out of things to talk about but trying to do a post everyday becomes very mentally taxing and I think they burn themselves out that way, that’s why I stopped doing it everyday. I think it goes without saying I would rather put out quality vs quantity. It remains to be seen whether I can keep it up.
I also think the monetization of some of the bigger more popular blogs puts a lot a lot of pressure on getting the posts out hence some people get burnt out faster than they normally would.
I encouraged Bhetti to stop blogging at Corrupt. It seemed as though it had become more of a chore to her over time, eg the last half year of so anyway, most of the time, than fun. Though I think she liked doing some of her mostly pic posts there. Once she started doing Girlgame, which she likes doing a lot more, it just became too much what with medical school not being like a gut course of study and all. And then there’s all the time she periodically wastes with me ….
I think my favorite post of hers at Corrupt in the last year anyway, was her evisceration, with pictures and a few well chosen words, of a good bit of minimalist art:
link
(I rather like my comment too it too. *ahem*)
This thoughtful piece of being a doctor in the NHS, and the inevitable greater loss of life as cost cutting comes in the wake of Britain enormous budget deficits is also tres good. (I should stop this. I’m getting nostalgic.)
http://www.corrupt.org/tags/nanny_state
If anything, I’ve slowed down and tried to distance myself from PUA culture. The 2-3 posts a day, are replaced by weekly updates.
An interesting phenomenon illustrated by this noting sadly the passing of certain blogs, but the rise or others, is that i) probably a lot of us who read you will know and have at least visited the great majority of blogs you mention, and no not generally because of your linkage, it’s a deeply cross referring corner of the blogosphere, and 2) we really do have a kind of community that’s arisen. Yes most strongly because of and around Roissy (damn I hope he changes the name back), but 2Blowhards as well, although perhaps on the outer perimeter because although Michael Blowhard before he stopped blogging there what six or nine months ago now, mostly discussed and linked to more cultural sites and news, including a lot of sexy stuff. But he also brought a lot of interesting people to Rossy and so on who probably wouldn’t have found him otherwise. And he brought some liberals to consider some of this realism stuff. As well there’s a certain shared sensibility. A new kind of young conservatism that’s been developing. Realism for want of a better word. Somewhat cynical realism, but loving life and enjoying it. Most definitely rejected political correctness and blank slate/it’s all socially constructed cultural Marxist understandings of how the world is and should be.
I mean we’re a sizable but still fairly small part of the blog world after all. There are skads of left oriented political blogs, and right ones, far more day to day political than this corner and really very different. Not part of this world. As well though Roissy and e.g. Tyler Durden and Talleyrand and Master Dogen over at Alpha Status may tell sexy seduction tales from time to time, and Roissy as well, this corner really isn’t part of the sex blogging world. Which is also quite vast. Especially the sex blogging girls, and married cheating or swinging women. Different. Well a sex blogging guy who over the last year has come to comment on Roissy’s a fair bit, Riff Dog (with his Ashley and me blog), bridges.
Then there are the predominantly mens rights or MRA sites, but again the new and young ones that have been influenced by Roissy. There’s a whole older group of poorly interconnected MRA sites mostly run by older divorced guys that have useful resources, but it’s not the same interconnected corner. I.e. they don’t know much about game, evo psych, and so on. Different.
And of course another pole but part of this world are the HBD blogs, and a few predominantly anti HBD ones (esp. Obsidian’s) as well. The Steveosphere. Steve Sailer, GNXP (very important in digging out the scientific grounding for HBD but it’s primarily a human genetics and human cultural evolution/civilizational history site. Well more the biology side but both.) And so on. Another world for them is race realism and human evolution blogs.
So it’s realism then, informed by scientific understandings of underpinning biology, evo psych and psychometrics, and casting off of cultural Marxist mindsets. Hasn’t got a real good name yet I don’t think but it is a densely interconnected corner.
I’ve decided not to close up shop, after all. So you can move me back out of the “dead blogs” list. I’m just reducing the number of posts I make to twice a week, as that’s all I can currently handle.
It’s a woman’s prerogative to change her mind, and then change it again, and again. And then decide that the picture really did look much better in the living room. And so on.
Thanks.
