It's funny to me that I'll live in one place and certain people will think they're either magic or chosen by the heavens, waiting for signs. Then I move 200 miles or less and find more people who think the same thing. Most float around me like I'm the sign. They REALLY need a psychiatrist instead.

Hi America, I know that warm colors suit me. After some wikipedia reading, internet skimming, and loud people in public. I was aware that I look similar to a certian anime character who is ALARMINGLY resilient to being shot. America has an insanely high gun violence rate. Wtf would I ignore that?

Why am I not so subtly being told to visit Japan by other people? Oh wait, I forgot where I live. They won't tell me or help me with the why or planning part because "say, don't do" is the true 'Merican way. I haven't been comfortable since I got here because of this kinda sh!t. 25 years of unease.

I'm not sure how to interact with people who are so bewildered by me that they ask if I'm real or can't tell if I'm human or not. This isn't new. Niccolò Paganini was accused of being demonic because his violin skills were too good. A large chunk of humaity just kinda stagnated, I guess.

Did I buy the 2lb thing of butter? Yes. 'Cuz I cut it into thick medallions, wrap with parchment paper, and freeze the extra medalions. Move to fride when in need of more butter. And now you can too.

Hey America! Do you want stuff?! No? Great! We've extended stuff day to the rest of the month! Forget that budget that's been floating you for the past year! You've been trained from a young age to not have impuse control. Seriously, hearing how much holidebt people dove into with a smile is nuts.

When someone says I'm being watched by angels, I want to know which government agency that's code for. It's like, yeah buddy, I know I'm on a government watch list. Just not sure which one. More like benifical stalkers who get paid more than me. Can I start stalking myself to be on that payroll?

The government is getting so desperate for ice agents that I'm getting ads. Don't interupt Murder She Wrote with that garbage! Can't they see my online activity and geo-locations? Is their surveillance actually as halfassed as I think it is?

People are having deep meaningful dreams. Meanwhile, I have dreams where someone says I'm too short only to walk up to me, face to face, to realize they're the same height. Wow...so deep.

A new past time of mine is drinking Liquid Death in public to see how many people think it's a beer. One person makes a comment at least once per can. It says a lot when people talk at strangers because they misinterpreted something they didn't understand and react out of fear. Also, not sponsored.

Not a god damn soul warned me about the stage of life were other people's kids will try to intetact with me like they know me. I'm pretty sure I will never have kids and the universe was all like, "Ha! Well that's too damn bad!". Sometimes it's cute and sometimes I want to buy the parents a beer.

Fare thee well, summer tan. You were uneven yet you evened my skintone. You will be missed. Until late spring of next year, when I may wear shorts and tee shirts. So I may walk and dawn the hue of a lightly toasted marshmallow once more.

Went to the thrift store and now I have a new hobby. All for, like, four bucks. I'll be juggling cainsaws in now time!

Mad shout out to my toaster oven for being the tiny oven I never knew I needed. Baking, broiling, toasting, and making my apartment just a little bit warmer everytime.

Why the fuck did the Seceritary of Defense loudly announce to the world, "Heyy~ hostile world powers, we just pooled all our top brass in one location and made an almost guaranteed reaction delay to any event on anyone under their command."? This is the SECOND time he's announced troop locations.

As I passed by a kid asked, "is that a boy or girl?". The parent responded, "keep that question to yourself.". A nice way to say "mind your business" and stop being distracted. The old man that blankly stared at me and yelled "I can't tell what race you are." needed that advice long ago.

Soft tendon in Pho is underrated. You'd think it'd be nasty, but it's like soup boba. Then I saw a bumpersticker that said, "make Orwell fiction again." and the reality of this country came back after a brief soup-on-a-rainy-day respite. We might need more of those bumperstickers.

Watched a truck slam on the gas and cropdust the cars behind it with a stinky plume. Now THAT is how you cause some road rage or blow up their own engine judging by how dark the smoke was. Did they know a cropdusted car was recording them? Probably not.

I never thought that buying a kiwi could be a big finacial flex, but here we are. Three bucks for one kiwi from Chile.

The Marble League qualifiers this year have me loosing my shit. Some of the marbles have little headsets and tiny chairs. It reminds of the stuff I did as a kid, but on a professional level. Just all the warm fuzzy feelings.

Nothing's more bizarre than people who like feeling an emotion that they can't identify, so they flail around looking for the catalyst to feel they way they like. It's worse when they realize it's caused by another person, so now that person has a socially incompetent, "well meaning" stalker(s).

I'm really wondering if southern women have genuine, non family, friends. The past three times someone was intorduced as a church friend or a friend friend I got front row seats to the Wimbledon of passive agressive insults and dirty looks. All three had a really intense rally.

I now realize that I have to ask if the chicken in the tenders is from a singluar piece of chicken or is made of that weird amalgamation sponge chicken. No amount of sauce can cover up that sponge nonsense.

The number of stuff stores in the U.S. is off the charts. We got T.J.maxx, Marshalls, JCPenny, HomeGoods, Kohl's. I just found out about Belk and Ross. The stuff isn't great, but boy howdy there's a lot of it. And we gotta have stuff to fill stores even if it'll never be sold, amirite?!
