Edible Thoughts

i get discouraged because the only way on this planet to leave an indelible mark is to create value beyond yourself, and that feels overwhelming.

money can be spent. property can be broken. even memories can be stolen through disease.

service and creation for the benefit of others persists.

#lighthouse motifs are often used to convey safety, comfort, calm... but lighthouses are a symbol of danger, warning, concern 🌊

i feel bad for our lord and savior these days, poor guy must be running all over the place with all the people saying "Jesus Christ!" in response to current events

the thing is we treat society like dinner. some cultures have a shared pot everyone eats from. some cultures welcome sampling each other's plate.

then there's the western way where we only eat from our own plate and act like sharing would spread disease.

one of the most wonderful things about social media is that i thought i was weird.

turns out there's tons of other people out there with exactly the same type of weird. and they're out there being successful.

i can do this.

only people with hourly pay get to vote (and those unable to work due to disability). if you are too young or old to work or if you live off passive income you do not get to build today's systems.

i dreamt i was lying in bed scrolling my phone. i was very confused when i woke up and was not holding anything.

big fan of the cooler green with the soft vertical particles and mountainscape

we didn't stop smoking when we knew it could cause cancer. why would we wear masks to prevent long covid.

"subscriber" and "underwriter" are the same concepts

i was going to say something witty but when i opened the app there was a video of two cats chattering at birds and now it's gone.

these days the people i trust with my deepest secrets are the ones who send me a picture of a bird in a silly hat at 2 am.

trying to fall asleep and my paracusia is turning the breeze into banjos, this is not calming 🌜

a furby with the capacity of grok, as a toy for toddlers, what could possibly go wrong

i'm a big fan of that sparkling grid 💙🩵

just found out the Australian word for a #FenderBender is called a #Bingle 🫤 i've only even heard this word as a portmanteau of Bing and Google to describe a brand neutral web search. #NewWord

throughout my childhood people told me i was mature for my age, and i thought it was because i was raised mostly around adults, but actually more specifically i was not neurotypical and neither were any of the people i was raised around.

i realize that the reason i worry about what others think isn't because i have an ego weakness but because i was socialized female and expected to take responsibility for everyone's emotions in social situations

i realize my spouse cannot feel the heartbeat of the universe and that's why we have very different concepts of time.

i gave away one of my less used plushies to a child some ten years ago and i still think about him and wonder if he's doing ok.

my brain has been foggy lately and i realize that whenever i'm idle, i doomscroll. in the time before mobile browsers i used that time to process experiences. now they just get stored unproccessed.

i just learned that "snug" is a British word for a private room at a pub.

i think the reason British English has so many cute words that aren't in American English is because we just borrow a word from another language, whereas the British own it and just twist an existing word to fit.

i wonder how online grocery delivery searches change by the time of day

if you've ever wondered how well you actually clean your toothbrush, do what i just did - put liquid soap on it instead of toothpaste.

my parents used to complain that i ate my fries before my burger. i wasn't the kind of kid who left food on the plate. never did understand why they insisted i eat my insulated entree and leave my sides until they were soggy and cold.

we probably don't have every dinosaur skeleton that ever lived on Earth. some advanced species probably stopped by once or twice in 165 million years to pick up snacks.

have you ever noticed a #wrinkled corner of your #perspective, picked at it and found that you had a protective film blurring your mind?

i think a lot of my people are experiencing that for the first time.

wealthy people used to grow lawns to show off that they didn't need the farmland. but actually an organically managed barren dirt strip would be more impressive, in my opinion. weeds grow when you blink.

has anyone eaten mac and cheese with smoked salmon? is it as good as it sounds in my head right now?
