In which, yet again, I become what I judge. This time was quicker than usual! (It took twenty years for me to end up fat and the owner of a fake Christmas tree, but only weeks to end up with a Traveler’s Notebook!) Behold. My Traveler’s Notebook. This object has totally captured my imagination. I’m […]
In which I ponder the cuddle-the-baby or ignore-him-when-he-cries approaches. I’ve been reading a lot about Universal Basic Income lately. What is it? Well, the basic idea is that everybody gets enough income to keep them just out of poverty even if they never do anything at all. In the U.S., it would be the equivalent […]
In which there’s a pretty thing. I’ve had this thing on my wishlist for pushing a decade. It’s a fairly close replica of the one my great grandmother had, which now belongs to my uncle. Ten years is a long time to covet something that costs less than forty bucks, and I finally just went […]
In which I’m disappointed but not surprised, considering how many said they’d be voting their ‘consciences’ in this election. I have several hundred Facebook friends; they are disproportionately musicians and cult members, and a lot of them announced they’d vote third party. I really, really wish they hadn’t. So, to those of you who voted […]
In which there are a variety of reversible, seasonally appropriate motherfucking handmade placemats!!! When your mom is psychic: You buy a table and you think, damn, some placemats sure would be great. AND THEN YOUR MOM SENDS YOU A BOX OF THEM RIGHT OUT OF THE BLUE, AND THERE’S, LIKE, DIFFERENT ONES FOR MAJOR HOLIDAYS […]
In which there’s a snapshot. A cardamom mocha latte, served pretentiously in a Ball jar with a copper-riveted saddle leather cozy. A box of chakra stones I received in the mail today. I’ve decided to take up the study of chakras because I’ve always thought they were ridiculous, a mental state that conflicts with my […]
In which I feel both uplifted and awkward. Once in awhile, I fall accidentally into a religious conversation with a devout Christian about the experience of the practice of religion. And she says stuff, and I say stuff, and she’s pleased with my insight and depth of understanding, and we’re really grooving and having a […]
In which I buy stuff I don’t really need like an asshole, but at least it’s all used so I can say I’m “upcycling”! Bought a table today! A used table! A TABLE YOU CAN EAT AT! It’s a brown pub-style table and chairs set, and it’s taller than strictly necessary but I think it’ll […]
In which I go off on victimhood mentality as displayed by a member of a privileged* class. I just read a huge, long, 40-post tweetfest freakout about “sexual assault.” The writer claims that she got licked on the cleavage in a hotel bar. She’d gone merely to collect a fork, with which to eat her […]
In which there’s good news. We flew to DC last Thursday so I could see Amma. We had a very short layover in Milwaukee, then got to Reagan, walked to the hotel shuttle stand, and waited for the bus. Got to the hotel, went out to eat on a cute little street a few blocks […]
