CONTENTS 5. Prologue 9. Brief History of the Mark Twain Motel in St. Louis, Mo

Prologue July 10, 2022 St. Louis, Missouri What’s up, y’all.

Phil Seahorn here with another internet content nugget. I have been publishing ebooks and podcasts for 13 years now, and I am as shocked as anyone else that this is my 14th ebook in which I am publishing and will be doing a podcast on.

I have been focusing on [podcast creation at this point, however, the events that I am experiencing right now are something that screams: “THIS SHIT IS A FUCKING EBOOK WAITING TO BE PUBLISHED! NO ONE WOULD EVEN BELIEVE THE SHIOT THAT GOES ON INTHSI FUCKING MOTEL IN 2022 IN ST. LOUIS MISSOURI OF ALL PLACES!’ I shit you not: this place is straight out of a noir from hell New York at its worst fucking experiences. In my hometown of all places.

This is fucking St. Louis Missouri. Born and raised here. These are uneducated niggers and three generations from daughter fucking white trash hillbillies.

But thank God and Allah for the cool folks in St. Louis: the artist, writers’, musicians, builders, community and national leaders (Corey Bush, y’all!!!!): sane St. Louisans in 2022.Multiracial and multi class; just sane fucking St. Louisans.

They are still here.

5.

I live in a state so fucked up that we, of all the places in the motherfucking United States, would host the most violent and the most revealing American White Supremacists Reality Check of the 21st fucking century:

THE MOTHERFUCKING FERGUSON RIOTS OF 2014.

The home of the kid who played “Quicksilver” in the X-Men franchises, the kid who played “Ted” in “Bill and Ted whatevertheFuck”, Cedric the Entertainer, Tina Turner, Vincent Price, Chuck Berry and Scott Bakula, and countless more.

The best and most famous university in the Midwest (my alma mater, of course, Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri.)

The greatest motherfucking American baseball franchise in baseball history (The Motherfucking St. Louis Cardinals, y’all!!!!)

Home of the world’s largest brewery (Anheuser Busch).

The home of one of the best streets (Delmar Loop) in the nation.

The best and most famous zoo in the entire motherfucking world (The Zoo at Forest Park).

Home of Nelly, Lavell Crawford, and the infamous St. Louis County Gun Toting White Trash Motherfuckers who made headlines around the fucking world in 2020.

And voted the most dangerous city in the fucking United States four fucking times.

6.

Yeah, that “St. Louis”.

So, this…”hotel”…. would not be too much of a stretch of the imagination to believe exists in my hometown.

The stories of the Mark Twain Motel where I am forced to reside right now because of post covid housing madness and greed around the country in 2022 have resounded thru my life for forty years now.

Back then, I had fucked two or three women here. In the day, this hotel was where you would take a woman to fuck two or three times because the bitch would never, ever want to come back here with you.

Fast forward to 2021.

I’m in Spokane Washington. Been there at that point for five years. Became a fucking English tutor, got my Certificate of Completion in Social Media Marketing from Spokane Falls Community College.

Even win a fucking award for my very first podcast series (“GIANTS”).

Then: the motherfucking plague.

Well, Trump winning the presidency and I’m in White American Superiority at its worst Spokane, Washington, well that kind of kicked shit off to get the fuck out of Spokane.

Fast forward from 2021 to now, July 2022. Been at this fucking horror show of a motel for six months.

Covid has created in 2022 a market where NO ONE IN THE U.S. WHO CAN’T PAY 1,000 A 7.

MONTH WILL OR SOON WILL BE HOMELESS. That’s a fact.

Or will have to live in a place like this, which this ebook will chronicle IN MOTHERFUCKING DETAIL WHAT IT IS LIKE TO GO FROM A MIDDLE-CLASS NEIGHBORHOOD TO A PALCE LIKE THE MARK TWAIN MOTEL IN ST. LOUIS. Here, I have seen well, read the rest of the ebook.

8.

Brief History of the Mark Twain Hotel in St. Louis, MO I have a bachelor’s degree in history from Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri. Got that in 2013.

My first historical ebook project began back in 2016 when Trump was elected President of the United States, Number 45.

Trump. For us historians in 2022: the gift that keeps on giving.

It was a poetic chronicling of the whole 4 years of Trump. A historical poetic telling of hell on earth.

And speaking of hell on earth: the history of the Mark Twain Hotel in St. Louis Missouri (the city of my birth) and how the shitty run down straight out of a fucking movie set hotel slowly descended into the Stephen King defying hell it is today in 2022.

In 1907 a hotel was built in downtown St. Louis. It was called THE MARYLAND MOTEL. This motel, built by a famous and recognized architect at the time, incorporated terra cotta design, which s what is so striking about the exterior and interior of the hotel.

By 2022, you can see that under the incredible filth and degenerate walls, doors and pretty much everything in this piece of shit hotel, it was at some point a beautiful place to stay back in the day.

9.

Research shows that somewhere between the 1920’s and the 1970’s, the Mart Twain became a flophouse, whorehouse, den of drug dealers and criminals, and well, a mini “New York City” right in the heart of downtown.

I grew up in the Peabody Projects which are only five minutes from downtown St. Louis. I had the distinct privilege of location: being so close to the Arch, The Riverfront, Laclede’s Landing, and of course, Busch Stadium, as far back as I remember, I always met people from all over the world.

Drug and pussy addicts from around the world would drive thru the Projects. Even my stepdad was a heroin dealing “OG”.

It was surprising to us in the hood that these people would always ask about the Mark Twain Hotel. Especially the drug addicts and sex fiends.

Turns out, like the motherfucking EVENING WORLD MAGAZINE ( shorturl.at/knpsu) the Mark Twain Hotel, in the early 70’s, had gained a motherfucking reputation as the place to go to in St. Louis to get your freak on at a cheap rate.

And so, it was for The Mark Twain Motel a “sin city” destination for almost fifty years now.

The Hotel has gained notoriety in the 2000’s because of the intensive gentrification of downtown St. Louis. Many residents downtown, from urban black to extremely wealthy white folks, started complaining about the constant crowd of people (even now on a Wednesday morning as I write this, crazy ass niggers and hillbillies are out there now) which literally just fuck with people when you walk by.

10.

This has generated countless news reports as well as police complaints for almost twenty years in downtown St. Louis.

In 2022, you have these niggers and white trash hillbillies fucking with folks going to Cardinal games and anybody else walking past this piece of shit motel that does not look like these fucked up degenerate and EXTREMELY MENTALLY ILL residents of this building.

In 2022, The Mark Twain Motel is living up to tis almost 100 years history of decadence, drug addicts, prostitution, and mental illness.

It’s a shame because this fucking building is a motherfucking REGISTERED HISTORIC BUILDING. Money could be easily raised to renovate this building and make this a place where down and out folks don’t have to be made to feel that way, which dictates the behavior of many of the residents here.

But in this brief history of The Mark Hotel in St. Louis Missouri, in 2022 that is the fuckedup legacy that they seem to want to perpetrate.

And that’s a fucking shame.
