Just trying to be as excited about life as a blind Norfolk Terrier I once knew. I'm a dumbass, caveat lector.

If I had a nickel for every time Franz Ferdinand was involved in the precursor events of a world war, I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird it happened twice

We don’t have money for universal healthcare, affordable housing, affordable and healthy food, functioning public transit, etc. but there’s always endless money for the war machine

I like the idea of a mechanical watch, but I learned long ago it best to idiot proof every facet of my life I can control, and telling time fell into that category. I am dumb. That's a cool watch though.

Casio GW5000U watch

Casio GW5000U watch

This is the perfect watch for me. It is solar powered and set via an atomic clock each night. This is the second one I have owned in close to 20 years (first one had slightly different screen with a red outline). As long as I can keep finding them, I will never wear another watch.

Lord, I see what you've done for others. It’s real sick shit, frankly. You belong in jail.

Screenshot of my phone's main screen. A picture I took of me and my kid in a kayak off the coast of Florida. 2 person kayak and she is in front holding up a peace sign. There are quick launch icons at the bottom and a weather app widget that says "8 DEAD, DOZENS INJURED AS..." interrupting the tranquility of my god damn phone home screen. Why do I need death and destruction for the fucking temperature?

Even the weather app has no chill. Jesus Fucking Christ, the world is shit, I get it. WTF?

Hoping for more than not dead, but sometimes that's good enough.

Learning about Frances Willard and Ida B. Wells, and the masterclass in petty that is "Miss Willard's Attitude," leaves me feeling that the universe needs to adopt a new gesture, a la the chef's kiss, to pay homage to that woman and her receipts.

Nothing matters, so eat snacks and vibe.

May have kicked life a little too hard in the dick yesterday. Turns out, it will kick back.

I am surprised to learn of glycyrrhizic acid, but I feel the taste is telling your body to stop.

Other than standardized tests, I am still struggling to find a way to translate this supposed intelligence into something practical. Womp womp...

It has also become abundantly clear that I have some sort of undiagnosed ADD or ADHD.

The only thing that I know to do with this and all the other bullshit, is to teach my kid the truth of how horrible we are as a nation. This is exactly who we are.

Well, it was either world war three or letting black people have jobs, so I see why people just went with the world war

I want to be better at chess, but I have two problems: a.) I'm an idiot & b.) My friends don't play chess. If you are on chess(dot)com, let me know. I would like to find people to play with, that might also be willing to provide feedback and aren't total weirdos. Weirdos part is optional.

Haven't paid attention to much that wasn't garden or chess centered lately, but wanted to send positive vibes to the trans homies that are being persecuted by the state of Kansas. You deserve better and it will get better. Hang in there.

Honestly I am done with him. I would rather take our chances without him rather than deal with the diva stuff. He is an amazing talent, but such a bitch.
