Ramble On: Autumn 2025 Edition

Playlist Link: Ramble On Autumn 2025 Edition Here we go again. And again. And again.  One of my favorite parts of The Sopranos is how often the men ask women for red peppers.  Mercurial at best. Sadistic at worst.  Teeth baring smiles.  https://www. scientificamerican.com/ article/how-did-the-smile- become-a-friendly-gesture-in- humans/ Dream eater.  For the love of god, please take creamed spinach off of menus.   A trail of baby ducks.  The foot bone's connected to the leg bone. The leg bone's connected to the knee bone. The knee bone's connected to the thigh bone… But you said you would.  Missed connections.  Starbucks should serve hash browns.   Sundays are for 8+ hour conversations with strangers, Mondays are for disappearing into the ether.  Your educational institutions, religious organizations, and/or governments may not hold you to a higher standard, but I sure as fuck will.  Flashbacks are actually the worst thing in e...

*This draft is so rough, it may as well be 40 grit sandpaper.  Please bear with me while I continue to revise and edit my thoughts into a cohesive use of energy (and hopefully less of a rant). * SOS: SAVE OUR SCHOOLS   MISSION:   TO REINTRODUCE CREATIVE AND CONSTRUCTIVE OUTLETS TO STUDENTS BY WAY OF VOLUNTEER AFTERSCHOOL PROGRAMS.   TO PROPEL FURTHER STUDY AND AUDIT OF CHILD/ADOLESCENT PSYCHOLOGY; STATE AND FEDERAL SCHOOL PROGRAMS; AFTERCARE AND RELIEF PROGRAMS FOR THOSE AFFECTED BY SCHOOL SHOOTINGS; AND THE ROLE OF SCHOOLS IN A COMMUNITY.   I’m going to keep this short and sweet for the sake of urgency.   We took art classes out of schools. We took music classes out of schools. We took auto shop classes out of schools. We’ve taken every form of outlet these children could have ever had a chance in hell with and either abolished it completely or turned it into some sort of paperwork laden nightmare that even the most bureaucratic of us would...

Beige is Boring Acrostic (Archive)

B eige is boring, bland, and barren, E voking comfort for those who won't be darin'. I t's found all over, in presets and filters, G arnered by those who can't take pictures. E veryone knows it's where life goes to die --   I s it really that wrong to want a little color to hit my eye? S o take care to remember what next I say,   B eige is lackluster, dated, and cliche. O riginality has fled with your nude monochromatic, R eleasing instead emotions quite problematic. I ask you again, what's so amiss with one being vivid? N o sense in neglecting the colors we've been gifted, G lowing bright pallets are much less restrictive.

Sir, it's 2 p.m. and we're on a crowded city street... (Archive)

 All I wanted to do was go grocery shopping,  whereupon I saw a man whose pants were dropping.  I thought for sure there was no way,  until I had to avoid his urine spray.  To pee right on a public street with such ease! Surely, this must be some new form of disease.  No shame in sight for this poor fellow -- I'm glad I moved before he turned my white shoes yellow.
