Ban’s Travails

Trouble is a-brewing! She’s afraid of going to Tunis.

[QUOTE] I think part of my slight unease about heading off to Tunis in a couple of hours is that the last couple of months I have been so engaged with interacting with family and friends and others re: work - i.e. interview subjects and audiences etc the last couple of weeks in Ptown and living in the Mary Heaton Vorse House which is always full of activity and people. Spent the last couple of months seeing theatre ad operas and even some dance (but not enough) during stops in NYC and Santa Fe and Chicago. I am now heading into a strange land in my more solitary loner mode without the usual outlets of the kinds of culture in which I find such comfort. It's the way I usually deal with the world as a pilgrim - the solitude of finding community in culture The loner who looks for ways to make strangers less strange. Now to make myself less so to myself in the coming three months in North Africa. That's going to be the tricky part. The trickiest part, in fact, is not looking at it as a trick.

Onward ....

Kevin Sessums is an asshole, but he is a human asshole who isn't famous enough to be incessantly stalked here, have accidents and ill health wished on him, and to have his health problems mocked

[bold]Prologue for anyone new to the Sessums Stalkers[/bold]

Within a web of shadows, dark and deep,

A crew of malice doth their vigil keep.

With coded tongues, their plots they do unfold,

A twisted tale of vengeance, dark and cold.

On Kevin Sessums’s life, their eyes are ever bent,

A cruel delight in his torment spent.

With veiled threats, their malice they impart,

And seek to pierce his solitary heart.

Let’s watch this drama, fraught with wicked glee,

As shadows dance and secrets come to be

I’m hoping he does well in North Africa—an actually adventurous thing to do at his age and alone.

Perving on younger men and even her landlord for the evening. She’s splashed out on a beach trip and overnight but not a pair of fucking shorts! The STENCH from those jeans.

R10 is it just a couple of paragraphs? This was my fave part: “A cultural and spiritual pilgrim, he lives in London and Paris for most of each year.” What a creative way to describe homeless grifter.

by Anonymousreply 13August 26, 2024 3:50 PM

The cunt has a new affectation - describing people as “cool as merde” or men “hot as merde”. Truly committed scat queen 💩

by Anonymousreply 14August 26, 2024 3:57 PM

Everyone knows the only description for good looking men is “hot as a pistol!”

I’m surprised he hasn’t been rolled yet by a gang of street youths. “Suddenly, Last Summer” vibes are all over this leg of the grim pillage.

by Anonymousreply 16August 26, 2024 11:51 PM

Those liver lips. The contrived book and objet d’art display. The request to photograph yourself with strangers to post on Instagram. Being told no.

I like when he is normal and relaxed and shares his little pasta dish or talks about being old and needing to sit and sip water halfway on a long walk.

by Anonymousreply 17August 27, 2024 2:30 AM

He has his tweaked out tits out again in one of those bizarre poses.

Jesus Christ. Imagine constantly asking strangers to take your photo while you pose? And then posting it to social media? What a bizarre performance.

by Anonymousreply 23August 29, 2024 9:07 PM

Something was seen, a thing to which he bore witness.

Given his reluctance to visit Morocco at all, maybe it’s something he inadvertently manifestered.

It's a cliffhanger.... tune in tomorrow. Any guesses?

by Anonymousreply 25August 30, 2024 1:23 AM

ManiFester indeed! Teats out again along with a pathetic “disguised” dry beg about his careful budgeting. His fears about a room with no air-con in Tangier (he insists on adding an S out of touch fool) - no shit you should fear it will be sweltering.

Daddy has plans to be on the beach sans jeans (they could walk the Camino themselves by now) or shirt - look out beachgoers!

EWWWWW!!!! All his tits-out pics these last few days were leading to a grand, horrific finale.

R3 believes he was wrongly excluded from his school’s literary magazine. 30 years later, he persists in proving that 16 year-old editor correct.

He sits at a cafe all day eavesdropping on strangers who he then accosts on their way out the door, asking if they’ll pose for a picture with him that he then posts to Instagram with bizarre captions that glorify himself.

“Yaleen, who had worked in the legal field, now taught yoga and led retreats. “So you are on your own pilgrimage without having to leave home,” I told her. Our eyes more than met at that point; we each were seen by the other.”

It’s absurd.

His narrative is that he’s an asshole.

Yes, a human asshole.

by Anonymousreply 34September 4, 2024 4:13 AM

R32 exactly this ffs it’s becoming OTT even for him. But what’s an exiled balletomane to do when cut off from culture? Accost baristas and bystanders to weave into your carefully constructed existence all while trying to distract from the fact you’re actually a homeless addict.

by Anonymousreply 35September 4, 2024 7:02 AM

He’s found some cool kids who might (🤞) cut him from the herd, in this case a couple 20-something Spanish girls who are there to help homeless youth. He’s offered to maybe help cook meals. Probably a 70% chance they were just humoring him and a 20% chance that he would actually follow through if asked.

Do they eat oil cake and cat hair pah in Morocco?

by Anonymousreply 36September 5, 2024 12:55 AM

Maybe those women are there to help the homeless oldth instead of the homeless youth.

In short, I believe you can say Stephanie is NOT a fan.....

I am Stéphanie the owner of the place, and I guess that you were welcomed by Hayat. Indeed, we welcome people everyday who come taking pictures (most of the time never asking). This is both very satisfying and at the same time rather frustrating as, for us, the most important is to connect with people and spend nice moments with them. I have to admit that it may be very disagreeable to spend times asking why people want to take pictures (personnally I feel uncomfortable when someone comes not saying hi and just takes pictures of me while working...) Which is why I finally decided to pin the poster... Sorry for this experience and thank you for your visit.

He’s gonna get his wizened tallywacker cut off if he keeps doing this creepy photo shit in Tangier.

R38, was that a comment left on one of his Facebook photos?

by Anonymousreply 40September 6, 2024 5:26 PM

Yep r40

Context: Before I inhale the ripe as merde blatherings on shitstack I’m loving the pouty posting about a bookstore where for once our pilgrim was told to stop taking unsolicited snaps of people at work! So incensed was he that he didn’t even purchase the book he alleges he was going to buy. Personally, I would apologise and buy out of shame. The bookstore owner just popped up in his comments and explains it makes people uncomfortable to be photographed as they go about their work - I love her! She’s being very polite about it. I note she says to him he was likely greeted by her employee who is a man. I wonder if our creepy old fester was up to his old lascivious tricks snapping pics of young men?

by Anonymousreply 41September 6, 2024 6:58 PM

Thanks, R41. I finally found the post. He’s been on a posting binge lately so it was a bit hard to find.

I’m surprised he’s not posting updates of his shit logs in the toilet. Just so his deluded followers don’t miss anything.
