Why are those weird semi lucid sexy dreams about someone you used to know so unsettling and long lasting?

AI tech bros promising to allow you to talk to a digital simulacrum of your dead relatives as a false comfort during your natural process of grief are, Iโ€™m afraid, in contravention of the 1736 Witchcraft Act, the 1951 Fraudulent Mediums Act, and should be hanged. I donโ€™t make the rules.

I don't really 'do' Xmas, but I do like a bit of kitsch

Stabbed myself somewhat, so that's the end of today's feeble attempt at creativity ๐Ÿ˜‚

All my 'good' jewellery got stolen a few years ago, but I still have some vintage stuff.

Cartoon of two men standing in water up to their calves by a river bank. One is saying to the other: People who say they've swum in the rivers in Paris and Cairo are either insane or in denial.

See you in the moshpit (albeit with a custom zimmerframe)

This is true, sometimes simultaneously. I mean, we could still have a good 30 years in us? We got the best decades for music too.

'Getting old sucks'.
Why don't we treat getting old as a privilege, a luxury, a bonus? We see it as a curse.

I moved, but it turns out he was traveling with a carer, who sat about 6 seats away. So I feel bad, but I wish I didn't, if that makes sense?

Indeed.

Once, I was sitting on a bus, and a guy sat next to me. Without warning, he suddenly wrapped his leg around mine. No acknowledgement or sound. We sat in silence. I got out 3 stops too early by politely saying 'excuse me', and just getting out of the clinch.

I should add, he smells and has clearly got issues.

So, I'm on a train, and a guy sat opposite me, even though plenty of space. He's deliberately put his backpack hard up against my leg. At what point do we say something? This is our issue, because we've been indoctrinated to not make a fuss.

Not today. Can't work out a good schedule, or see if I have to reserve a seat. It's a long trip, to Montreux.

There's a massive difference between 'brave' and 'fearless'.
