you know i'm glad so many podcasts are not only pivoting to video but have also stopped describing whatever they're looking at for the listeners. it makes them unlistenable and i have other shit to do. and i won't watch!

i knew this lesson already by tripping and breaking a tooth. Never run for the ferry just wait a half hour. but i got caught up in the struggle. now i'm laid out in bed unable to go to a show cuz my left leg seized up and gave out. i didnt fall, at least. NEVER EVER EVER EVER RUN FOR THE BOAT

🔥🔥🔥 Today at immigration court 26 Federal Plaza this woman went ballistic to the masked ICE agents who detained her family member. Where are the people standing up to the Gestapo? I never saw this in 4 months I’ve been filming. 👏👏👏👏

but which generation am i in if i want the article read to me while i do something besides staring at a video screen
The real generational divide is people who refuse to watch a video if it could be an article versus people who refuse to read an article if it could be a video

i want to be disco party Harrier or just drown my sorrows Harrier, but i think i have to accept la responsabilité, and like have a lot of meetings with committees? it just feels very reminiscent of la realité atm. #discoelysium

i've misplaced my ipad pencil which is probably for the best because i end up just coloring mindlessly and waste the day so now i HAVE to get some stuff done.
also it's 3 am so "day" is not exactly right but when i have the wherewithal to get stuff done i should do it no matter what the hour

Today’s Knot of the Day is (almost) my favorite: The Carrick Bend but this is the mat version which is more decorative. I like the bend itself cuz it’s nice to have something pretty and functional!

there's some kinda sound cue in my life that keeps getting Tuesday Heartbreak stuck in my head. it's a great song but i need to track down whatever is causing me to find myself absentmindedly singing "i wanna BE with you when the nighttime comes i wanna STAY and NEVER go aWAY oh baby it's alright "

Worth noting that DEA and ATF agents are not even changing their patches, both of them are present here helping ICE.

has anyone thought of reclaiming all the boxes everything comes in and making cat scratchers? i think that would be a great reuse idea.
