In case you were aware of the photo carousel lock screen/wallpaper for your always-on-display-capable iPhone… and you weren't aware of the foregrounding portraiture.

Someone holler if Morning Joe ever decides to release show transcripts. I thought it might be fun as an exercise to edit one of their four hour blocks for correctness, providing a glimpse at what my viewing experience has been like over the last couple of years.

This Jaime Foxx thing, FFS. You can't just take an ambiguous context, paint it antisemitic, and expect me to be invested in your mission of cultivating civil tolerance. Tolerance is kind of a benefit-of-the-doubt imbued property. UR doin' it wrong.

Be better folks whose ancestors (or they themselves) speak a subfamily of the Afro-Asiatic language family that includes Hebrew, Aramaic, Arabic, and Amharic.

Side note: I will admit it wasn't ambiguous when you can nail down just who the f$&k I was addressing with "you" up thar.

Y'all still be laying down the good faith gotchas for all the bad faith arguments being made for the benefit of folks with whom you do not even enjoy a shared reality. Y'all don't get tired? On that hamster wheel? Y'all don't realize you go nowhere?

Y'all, strengthen the emotional investment I have in the only paper weight I've ever owned (for thirty some years… waiting for some situation to arise that calls for a paper weight), bring me the origin of this quote. Go!

I keep thinking of things to say, thinking I'm gonna post said thing, realizing what I'm thinking of saying is mostly noise pollution, and losing all interest in whatever TF it was I almost said. Almost feels like flailing. Human connection deficiencies are kinda fucked.

In case anyone is wondering why Ron DeSantis and Lindsey Graham keep saying such stupid shit.

I'm old enough to remember when there was an element of artistry to bullshitting. F$&k you, social media, for bifurcating our information ecosystem and freezing the console with that shit locked on easy mode.

Sooo… I can slide-to-type "quintuplet", without being entirely satisfied I even knew how it was spelled… but… I can't, for the f$&king life of me, type "shit". FFS

Side note: I've decided that periods and commas belong outside quotations. The MLA can suck it. ᕕ༼ ͠ຈ ĺ̯ ͠ຈ ༽┌∩┐

I was hunched over the coffee table, jotting down a note, when, peripherally humbuggered, I suddenly found myself easing, ever so slightly, my limiter restricting holdings-eligible amounts allowable for algorithmically targeted tolerance.

I was all whoa, there's someone outside … wait … nahh, that's just the light ΡĿࢭΝΚΟptically pouncing upon the trees blowing about in this sudden gust of win…ndd … oh … okay … okay, I get it … I get it, now, ◔̯◔ smart camera algorithm…

Forgot about this one.

Also, this is why Generation X turned out better than your generation. Yes, including yours… whatever it may be.

When you realize you could totally use one of those social-media-content-creator-subscription thingies to make bank by allowing folks to subscribe to your account for access to all your content… of your dog… … …for access to all your content of your dog. #FML

T'is
one thing
confuses
me

With
all the shit
my baggage
be

Mis-
placing
said shit
commonly

Mis-
directing
hostil-
ity

'Til
missing shit
returns
to me

So here's
the thing
that doth
confuse

With
all the shit
from which
to choose

'Here's one
I
never seem
to lose

Kicked
abused
un-
graciously used

But
never
lost
my fucking shoes

My shoes
I
never seem
to lose

And, believe me, you, he won't let me hear the end of it.

How much room is left happens to be a function mapping what all remains and how badly it needs to fit inside a particular region of space. You'd think this value was geometrically quantifiable. You'd be wrong.
