I feel so lucky to have been in his orbit. He taught me so much about random factoids and sitcoms I forgot, and he was brilliant in his way of tying things together. His passion towards life was contagious. His warmth and generosity will stay with me. Godspeed, Will, and thank you.
We shared inside jokes about blogging and how difficult it is to find an audience to connect with, as well as bonding over music and collecting. We became friends and made several attempts to meet in real life but plans always fell through because of the pandemic and raising kids.
I'm devastated over the passing of @williambwest.bsky.social. We never met even though we both live in MD, and we chatted regularly over the years. I loved his writing and humor. He once joked that we should divide up the thrift stories by territory while we searched for our blog material.

That's the one I want too! The pumpkin bucket is becoming overdone. Give me weird shit like soda fountains!
I can't decide if I love this or completely hate it. I want fun tiny foods that transform into robots like the old ones, but this self-ordering kiosk with fry hands has its charms
One of my talents is perfectly executing highly processed frozen foods like I'm trying to win a reality chef competition
Might I tempt anyone scrolling by with a plastic side of sunny side up eggs and a buttered dinner roll that I found in the thrift store grab bag and keep on my writing desk? (superfog gas for scale)
