Hereβs my insane thing: if I donβt have a scarf and something to cover my ears, Iβm freezing, and then Iβm out on the street in my scarf and hat while dudes walk by bareheaded in *shorts* and it makes me want to scream at them.

Once again, βblame the parents.β lol
Not really insane so much as terribly subjective lol.
One day, apropos of nothing, I said, βYou know, Ravel is one of my favorite composers.β Said it right out loud, didnβt care who heard it
This feels like a weather report.
Adding βLibrary Zeppelinβ to list of life goals.
βItβs Adam and Eve, not Adam and E.T.β
If youβve read Path of Totality you know how hilarious this (and if you havenβt read it, you absolutely should).
Hilarious and appalling all at once.
One of my favorite lines from Russell Hoban's novel The Medusa Frequency: "In the morning I came awake as I always do, like a man trapped in a car going over a cliff."
If you donβt have a long list of works of art that are obviously good but that you simply donβt like youβre doing it wrong, lol.
Sometimes I see βIYKYKβ and think, I donβt know, just fucking tell me.
ppl think of Hitchcock as this director guy but he was doing Presents, he had a mystery magazine, he had a tie in book series about 3 kids who solve crimes from a caravan in a junkyard and do pyramid scheme marketing then for some reason expose the crimes to Alfred Hitchcock, man was hustling 24/7
And to be careful getting on elevators.
And so to bed.

This reminds me of a Champions campaign where a character had a magical horse; the player insisted the horse come with him into every scenario, no matter how absurd. βYou descend into the sewers after the villain.β βI follow. My horse is there too.β
Most friendships Iβve tried to cultivate in recent years have gone nowhere; at some point I just had to accept that a) people are too busy or b) itβs not meant to be. Still a drag though.
Itβs still funny.
Iβd be very curious to hear your thoughts on Del Toroβs take.
I was initially very skeptical of that choice, but then it began to somehow workβ¦ it is indeed overstuffed, and its feminism is heavy-handed, but the performances and cheeky allusions won me over. I certainly had more fun than I did with del Toroβs Frankenstein fanfic.
I know what you mean but it came together in the end for me, once I understood it was all just mad dream of the ghost of Mary Shelley.
I have to say I really enjoyed the hell out of Maggie Gyllenhaalβs The Bride!

Wrote a poem last night I wasn't entirely happy with; added weirdness to it and, voila, now it's okay. So it goes.
Hahahaβ¦
An open book by a cup of diner coffee.
Friday (so far).
