Nostalgia is catching. I can smell this essay, feel it's sweet, stickiness on my skin. Love it so much!

Ah, I felt this - especially the idea of nostalgia as being a "desire to conjure." I just bought a series of illustrations of my hometown's amusement park at night and every time I look at them, they make me feel something deep in my heart. Thank you so much for sharing and glad to be subscribed to you!
