I don't really know who Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo are, but judging by random posts on my Facebook feed, they're spinning out.

insomnia fuel:
new neighbors kind of across and over in back. we don't share a fence line but our corners meet. a month ago, I sent a postcard giving my email address & phone number but not offering anything except a cheery welcome. they haven't contacted me. was the card lost? are they jerks?

Brian Walsh pleading guilty to improper conveyance of a human body but not guilty to a murder charge is just legal hair-splitting! Goddamn lawyers!

just an observation. this cloudflare outage coincides with apple's latest security update. safari really really really wants you to surf safely and it runs private relay which uses cloudflare. it's in your icloud settings and I think it defaults to "on."

i used to work a couple blocks away from where cloudflare san fran offices are. there are so many tech offices over there now. when I was there in 1990, it was just warehouses and a couple offices. i worked for sfweekly btw.

Just finished this painting. I kinda like it. Limited palette gouache. #humblebrag

I’ve been watching the murdaugh mini series on hulu and I paused it just as mom and paul left for the kennels and I cannot get myself to hit play again.

I have so many plates in the air right now.

murdaugh audiobook, murdaugh tv series, mindhunter series, criminology interviews about serial killers, martha moxley podcast, bigfoot took her, oh and les nabis, vuillard, lautrec, and a little sprinkling of taoism.

when I'm in a bathroom stall and there's someone in the stall next to me I always think of this

people don't seem to understand that israel is not the government for all jews. being jewish or having jewish heritage doesn't automagically mean you back israel.

I have google arts & culture images as my tv screensaver and for years I've been seeing this one painting but missing the name of the artist. I've finally hunted it down and it's Vuillard's Floral Pattern Dress. So I've been learning about him and his fellow painters who were called the Nabis.

I had the weirdest dream last night. it was a mishmash of random stuff. sometimes I think of dreams like the "extra rinse" in laundry. so my brain should be squeaky clean now. included in my dream: emily baker esq, dave matthews music, a climbing wall, government forms, and more.

target’s new 10-4 policy gives me the creeps. I was already boycotting them because of the DEI thing but now I’m really never going back. they jumped the shark then married it.

I've been watching mindhunter on netflix. just finishing season 1. should I watch season 2? I'm reading that people are disappointed that there was not a season 3.

trumpers aren't paying attention. they go suddenly deaf when they want to. they start watching fishing or music videos. don't think they're all regretting being trumpers. they're just taking a time out and being willfully ignorant until the bad news blows over. they did the same thing on jan 6.

here's an idea: how about a mini bucket list? like, a bucket list for the week, or the weekend. a bucket list for november.
like, you wish for it but it's not a big deal if it doesn't happen, and it's not a task list.
