I've not gone out to dinner with anybody in decades because I'm a social misfit on the one hand and have nothing to talk about. I would sit next to you, a big wig. Oh, yeah. No, you are. The wig is large. And I would say... what art shows have you seen? And you would say, I haven't seen anything. And then I would sit in silence. So I stopped going.

And my wife is the co-chief art critic for The New York Times. A true bigwig, by the way. A true bigwig. She is the real deal. If you want to read art criticism, read Roberta Smith. I'm sorry I'm such a slow talker, but I'm from the Midwest.

So my online life is... is where all my fun is. It's where all my talk is. So why were you suspended from Facebook? Well, in around 2015, I was posting a lot of medieval manuscripts which had been... digitalized and rediscovered and were being seen for the first time. A lot of these are very violent, or the ones I would post.

And I would post like a woman having her breasts cut off, a man being castrated. And I would make some wise guy comment like, you know, this is 13th century, this is 8th century, and me coming into your studio if your work is no good.
