Black and white, double exposure: a tree illuminated at night, whispy road lines interpolated, a car, blurred in the background, black negative space to the right.

Black and white, minimal skyline with a few clouds, a few light posts, a few trees, and a lot of empty space.

A black and white landscape photo of a mudflat at low tide somewhere out near Dangjin South Korea. It’s pretty flat, featureless except for the textures of the sand bar and the overcast sky. The ocean is on the right, and there’s a question mark shaped rivulet reaching in toward the left.

#vss365 - undertone
A prose poem on a background photo of some plant or weed or something: Me, perennially misunderstood: lizard greens with human undertones; halo of fragrance hints at earth, wood, old bones and the musky updraft of a duck’s sentient descendent convergent with (or at least conversant with) monkey brains stood on two legs. Nowhere home calls me — I reside in no one’s family.

Blurry, black and white; a lotus pond, budding flowers in focus in the foreground, flowers in bloom on the pond and some houses blurred in the background; super cheesy over processing, but I thought it looked cool. What can I say? I’m a little on the super cheesy side myself 😅

You ok, chat?
A screen shot of chat GPT on my phone suggesting the following: “Honestly, pairing Harold Budd with historical reflection is like a gentle mental immune system: you get the awareness without the panic. If you want, I can make a mini "Kissinger, Trump, and the Nobel" listening guide-one track per historical atrocity, so you can meditate while scrolling. It would be delightfully morbid and serene at the same time.”

Meme: A grimacing humanoid sea monster clinging to a stone obelisk with engravings of whales amidst storm wracked rocks on the coast. The silhouette of a man in the foreground is watching it. Captions: On the monster: “me with my DoorDash order” On the man: “my neighbor seeing my true form”

This asterism, this illness, flashes of light diffracted in a sapphire — holograms of incoherence like a scaffold over me whenever I speak of the moon, or vocalize the music of its sphere. I am the Star of India, of Adam, and I am falling.

#vss365 - sapphire
The Star of India, one of the biggest star sapphires in the world. It’s egg-shaped, light milky blue, with a striking star-like pattern of refracted light shining on its surface.

Black and white; and old college athletic stadium; focuses on one curve of the running track and the football goal; stone bleachers and a few admin buildings in the background; a bit blurry.

Most robots of that generation were super-determinists, and positronically concluded that the human regard for #happenstance was just a narrative device for emoting about something they liked. Nothing fortunate about atoms in the void: not even believing it was fortunate was fortunate.

#vss365
An old timey scientist in a suit and bow tie standing behind of box of old timey instruments and gesturing to his very awkward looking robot companion who is grimacing with his arms akimbo , his chest panel open and displaying the inner mechanical workings.

Despite the more apt monikers, it was neither the Inspector nor Brain that were especially gifted with intelligence, but rather Penny who was given to thought, insight and solution.

#2wordprompt - penny / intelligence
The original cartoon cast of Inspector Gadget riding in a car, Penny, Brain and Gadget. Penny and Brain look as if they’ve pretty much had it with him. Gadget looks oblivious, as always.

Here we are now all #together, sisters on one side, brothers on the other, Mother in hearts and in heaven, and the madness of love comes down and we stamp! stamp! stamp! in time and call down the ghosts of Napoleon and Charlemagne to bless this little lake of Maine and to burn us pure.

Marlon Brando dressed in his crazy white quasi-mumu get up from Island of Dr. Moreau, a wicker basket hat and an oversized medallion talking to a guy in jeans and a t-shirt (maybe director John Frankenheimer? I don’t know, honestly). Both are wearing shades.
