Since in two years I haven't found what I'm looking for … I may just start writing it all down and call it Conversations with Myself.

The horsesh$t tribalism in my Twitter timeline has me wanting to start the drinking at 3p.

Re-upping on Home Before Dark being an all-ages show these fourty-somethings without other ages dig.

I mean … if I'm Russia … bent on weakening Western democracy … realizing that social media manipulation is a bulletproof way to do so … is there a bigger goldmine than convincing an opposition populace not to vaccinate amidst a global pandemic?

Exactly what happened

Apple has me sold on 1971 … and the spousal-type continually shaking her head and saying "I just don't understand how this was all in 1971."

118 days remaining on the accountability gut clock … after which the insurrection will have become fully normalized.

I may just write a definitive essay on the multi-national bifurcated information ecosystem (birthed by a combination of social media supplanting print media and the normalization of full blown, like-you-learned-it-in-school propaganda as an alternative news source) threatening global devolution,

how it is being utilized by the one percent to drive wealth in a manner inconsistent with the preservation of a planet we would hope to leave behind for our children,

how it is being weaponized by white supremacy with the hopes of stopping this nation's push towards a true multicultural democracy in its tracks on the eve of a White minority (hitting reverse should they be so lucky on the Color-to-White ratio in this nation),

how every bad thing we've experienced in the last four years can be traced back as a symptom of entertaining dual reality bubbles (where every vision dreamt by our forefathers and foremothers require a single reality in exclusivity),

how addressing each symptom as it presents does nothing to remedy the disease … or safeguard the lives and liberties of a populace teetering (from a bloody engagement with a fascist uprising wholly dependent on these dual reality bubbles) and fearful of the storm closing in,

how merging these dual reality bubbles is prerequisite for the restoration of science as our guide (rather than anti-science as our guillotine),

prerequisite for the return of civil discourse (rather than civil unrest),

the return of problem solving (rather than solution obstructing),

the return of an America in which its people pick its representation (rather than one in which our representatives pick their people),

prerequisite for rebalancing the distribution of wealth away from the lopsided 1% holding 70% of this nation's assets,

prerequisite for the long term preservation of the American Experiment (as representative democracy requires the acquisition of common ground … common ground that will never be found without the sharing of a common reality),

prerequisite for muting the ugly hate machine amplifying tribal division as an accepted alternative to tolerance …

so … yeah … I may just write that essay for the handful of y'all open to perceiving that which may not be pre-approved by your mind's eye for reception … and then go back to dropping out of the existential … leave the nation alone … see if it gets there on its own (fingers-f$&king-crossed that if it does so … it has done so in time).

Caitlyn Jenner at CPAC. 'Nuff said.

Owen Wilson's role should not be underestimated.

And BTW … all of the Disney+ Marvel shows are next f$&king level … from the plot lines … to the what the f$&ks … through the closing credits.

Alligator Loki is my new favorite thing.

Is Hunter S. Thompson Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas or is my sh$t twisted?

govtrack.us is cool BTW.

Be so much easier if those follow back lists on Twitter weren't part of the problem. F$&k knows what my reach would be were I participating in those m0therf$&kers.

Someone explain to me how a development making it even less likely for human infrastructure to get passed is good news.

Thinking of updating my mute policy to include instant muting for anyone that replies to a thread lead-in without f$&king bothering to read the thread (thanks for giving me the idea @Diane4Arkansas).

Just 'cause I know what's in store for me when the spousal-type wakes … can we all agree that "the door slammed" and "you slammed the door" are two very different sentences?

Bit of a bummer cloud hanging over the olympics this year.

Back to back black empties … a photo … followed by a black empty … seriously WTF Apple engineers.

Okay … at this point I'm wondering if the blank GD "photo" that gets tossed into my Apple TV screen saver no matter what album I set it to pull photos from is on purpose … so f$&king annoying.

Kinda feels like social media has trained out inquisitiveness and tripled down our dependence on call-to-action conformity with regard to marketing. When I see something I don't get, I check the profile. Apparently it's just me and one other guy.

RT if you agree

Pretty sure I Iove J.K. Simmons wherever TF he turns up.

I hate being in between art concepts now that I've grown accustomed to being occupied by them.

Mastodon lost a point today … guess it was inevitable.
