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...

 I’ve learned, taught, forgot, started and quit, won and lost, hated and loved.

 

I mind my p’s and q’s, even though the ladies’ room doesn’t ever seem to mind me nearly peeing its queue….

 

Snapchat. SnapBack. Aflac. Big Mac.

Track your package with OnTrac.

TicTac. Snack pack. Cyberattack.

Don’t forget to take your stimpak.

 

My government officials have wishlists that Veruca Salt herself couldn’t rival.

It’s no wonder everyone’s fighting for basic survival.

 

And I remember when those around me wanted to give me peace of mind, instead of giving me a piece of their mind…

 

Chris Pratt. Doormat. Non-fat. Whiplash.

Call the number on your screen now for free cash.

Grab ass. Kit-Kat. Lab rat. Smokestack.

There are some things we’ll never be able to get back.

    In my experience, almost any time someone has tried to give me peace of mind, they knowingly withheld information from me that they believed would disturb whatever peace they were trying to impart.

    It may have been with the best of intentions, but peace of mind only comes with the full awareness (acceptance?) of things that threaten that satisfaction.

    I *almost* always would have benefitted more from a candid conversation. Warts and all.

    In other news, Veruca Salt most definitely grew up to become a politician.

      The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

      As well as, potentially, a Chris Pratt Doormat, right at the front gate.

      Haha one can only hope -- I'll let you know for sure once I get there.

      Please do. "Inquiring minds," and all that sort of thing.

So many times I've found myself wanting to rest my head upon his chest.  To curl into him and die.  Seeking comfort in someone who isn't there.  Phantom feelings and false prophets.  I am the missing strength.  Never promised. Always found.  But oh how often I crumble now.

Ramble On: Winter 2024-2025 Edition

  Round 2: Fight!  Playlist Link: Ramble On Winter 2024-2025   The concept of a guardian angel not wanting to do their job. By all means, eat his heart, but don’t expect to gain any courage from doing so.  Loyalty is my biggest kink (and honesty is a close second). Why is it always “ _ _ 7” when it comes to heroes — James Bond, 007. Master Chief, 117. Who is going to be 227? 337? At what point do fictional militaries start looking like they’re putting faith in angel numbers?  Quickest to rise is the first to fall…and those who fall the hardest rise the furthest.  Bite me.  Everything I write is open to (mis)interpretation.  Polish pearls on your nose.  Appalooooooooooooosa  I’m over video games that make you wait around to fly through space forever, just to land on a planet of desolation and dust. Nothing else about these games is realistic, so why aren’t we making more interesting planets. Show me a planet made entirely of Bismuth. Or d...
