isidore, a fool in many ways 🌔

Watercolour and faded ink are painted across a worn papyrus. Draped over an unseen figure are water-soaked robes, a wide-brimmed hoiche, and a tallit embroidered with the annals of Qud. Rainwater collects upon the brim of the figure's hoiche, spilling over into the ground beneath them. Below this figure, text is inscribed in an old tongue: "From thine heres shaken the wet and olde lif Into a small vessel pouren hit To thin sash attachen the vessel Crossen nou thrugh the heigh hate and in-to Brightsheol"

Rainwater Shomer.

i like when ppl abbreviate finnegan's wake as "the wake". there's a real flair to the definite article, you don't get that with acronyms or most shortenings

one of those times was on the couch too so it's not just a magic piece of furniture.... i am cautious but hopeful

it's happened two more times since yesterday could this really be proof of peace in the world???

high of 41° today turn up

our stolen trash can showed back up the day we were planning to get a replacement. but without the lid so we still have to go replace that

as freezing persons recollect the snow—

I need it to be 20° warmer immediately so I can wander around again

they were hanging out peacefully together on the bed!!! peace & reconciliation in the world!!

reminding myself that the reason i feel like this is that it's barely cracked freezing in two weeks

which is why it's so annoying when the new conservative current in trans politics acts like the flaw was in the political demands and not the process of backforming an ontology onto them

i.e. moving carelessly from practical utility to ontological commitment

possible parallel between some of the key flaws of late 2010s trans politics & quinean ontology

YouTube video by LanaDelReyVEVO Lana Del Rey - Chelsea Hotel No 2

one of the best parts of lana's excellent chelsea hotel no 2 cover is that the song never genders the narrator, so it just scans like it's her. which completely recontextualizes "you told me again you preferred handsome men/but for me you would make an exception" www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jj_m...

like marsden after karl......

dreamed that Gucci Mane had mixed feelings on Haskell

yet again it seems like the ones who are *most trained* are also *most likely* to draw their weapons & fire on civilians, almost as if the training exists to desensitize them to killing or its consequences & moreover to convince them of the necessity & desirability of pulling the trigger

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.
