Funeral is today. Sad dog. Need to do the jackal thing and be a pall bearer. This sort of thing comes with the territory.

I cannot tell you how many times I've warched "Dune" (both of them) and "Bladerunner" the last 24 hours. It has definitely been a non-zero number. Leaning hard on my comfy high scifi.

Your windshields should be absolutely covered in a sticky mess of bug splats/insect carcasses every time you drive across open country forcing you to stop periodically at gas stations to use their wet squeegees to try and clean up your view of the road at night
Thinking a lot about how poorly our brains recognize long term subtle changes, like climate change or biodiversity loss. We've lost something like 1 out of every 4 individual birds in the US since 1970, more for some species.
There should be at least 25% more birds around you right now.

trust is neither given nor earned. it forms naturally between people who share the experience of having listened to Skinny Puppy at or after 3 am in the dark by themselves
