So, I started blogging under the name Rollertrain in 2000, back in the daze of Live Journal. During the porn marketing years, the blogspot Rollertrain enjoyed the internet version of cable access television recognition: 2003-2007. I started this Tumblr blog as a project to document what it’s like to go to art school in the middle of your life.
Art school is over, and so is this project: 2007-2010.
If you’d like to keep up with me and my art projects, check out my website/official artist page/new Tumblr project: LibbyLynn.com.
(In the interest of writing honestly, and in the spirit of the internet’s early blogosphere, I’ve started a pretty intense private blog that is not publicly available for stalking. If you’re interested in reading it, please email me: rollertrain at geemail.)
Thank you for your continuing support. Thank you for keeping up with this project. I hope you’ll stay along for the ride.
Later, taters.

Apologies for the dead air. Changes are a foot, a leg, a brain, a lot of ancient motif paintings and a comin’. Please stay tuned.

Listen: TMI by Benjamen Walker
Listen. Seriously, listen. This is the most fantastic radio show-podcast about the internet you will ever find.
No, that’s not correct. TMI is the best show that people who like shows about the internet and happen to be in the middle files of the pre-internet and post-web filing cabinet database. Our generation X(xx).
We’re not middle-aged. We don’t have kids. We’re careerily flexible. We have iphones and tumblrs and twitters and flickrs and etsys and facebookies and yelps and a lot of friends who are sometimes decades younger. We’re just trying to make sense of this thing that makes no sense because it is the greatest thing that has happened in our lives.
Listening to this show, in my obsessive manner, has been even more surreal because I went to high school with Ben. We were pretty close buddies. We did the drama fag thing at Thomas Jefferson High School. We smoked weed and cigarettes and drank beer and listened to music and drove around a lot. When I was a freshman, Ben tried to bust me out of Bethesda Mental Hospital in Denver back in 1989.
I’m so fucking proud of him. TMI is like TAL, but more interwebby, more personal and with more music behind the interviews. Artfags, you will love it. Listen, goddamit. Listen.
Go Ben!
