Flag Day is Real

I've had a strange schedule lately, too little sleep and no calendar to speak of. I enjoy the novelty of not knowing what day it is, appreciate being out of step and the loop where time is concerned (time is space is time...). But I like sleep, dammit. It's wonderful, rejuvenating. So today, I've been catching up with my unconscious self. 


I don't dream. Generally-there are exceptions, of course. Like with anything. But I don't dream. You knew that already. 


So today's a day for me, a day with myself. It's been good-used my portable metacortex, which I've been meaning to describe for a while. It's great, really. A matte black magic wand, a tiny monolith to hold up to the other house apes, move us along.  It is empowering, a second-or-third step towards the technocracy that's coming. The future's like the sea-it's rising, and those of us that can swim have to keep the rest of us from drowning. Ask me about the dog-paddle. 

I did laundry at 7AM, was accosted by a Jehovah's Witness. His name was Cameron. He was well coiffed, wore a nice suit and a pocketwatch. Copy of the Watchtower in his hand, and what looked like a well-worn bible. We talked for about half an hour. I did most of the talking. 

I took two naps, one in the sun in my front yard, the second only a few hours later safe in bed, cool and comforted by my white noise fan. I just made dinner, slap-dash casserole. I have had a good day.

It's always Monday on the Moon.


Sensible, logical. Silly. Like work.

I'm broken, on a ten. Glad to share my toil with marvelous people. Happy Monday.

Sit down and shut up.

I need to. Really. There's been a lot, lately. Well, really for years, but these latest shifts and movements are wearing me thin. Which isn't all bad-it feels good to strive, to cut loose at myself a little. It's funny reaching for things, when most of my life I haven't. You know me, you know I'm not ambitious.

But I've been honing and striving and burning my nights away. I have new tools, old allies, and more light. Like Goethe.

Portabello

Christ, this thing's going to eat my nights. Too much, both sides.

Futons


There's just so much of it. The future.  It's like the sea.
Learn to swim, or you'll drown. And by drown, I mean we'll round you up and lobotomize you .
...
I'm kidding of course. You're on my team, I'll put in a good word. Just don't be surprised when we get rid of money. And conquer death.

Farhad Manjoo Sucks

I just really needed to say that. More later.

Dials

Ass-dialed, I've been. Four times in the last three days. Long rambling surveillances through people's portable metacortices. Waste data, no data is wasted. There's nothing not worth knowing.

I'm alright, tired. I have a problem with my mouth.

Cultural and Maternal Nudity Throughout

Motherfuck but it's been nice lately. More ways than one.

Toasters and Elements

Gone over, to Chrome all of a sudden. Pleased and shiny, calm and collected.

Sort of.

Good day(s), several lately. Rise to meet them, and you, and everything else. I'm as good as I am brave.
