Ramble On: Summer 2025 Edition

Playlist Link: Ramble On Summer 2025 Edition 1. Curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back.  2. So…the little Coco food delivery robots…do we (as drivers) have to stop at a stop sign and wait for them to cross as if it were a human being? If they are just sitting there deliberating, or whatever their little robot brains do…how long do we wait? What is the protocol here?  3. Despairingly romantic.  4. Perhaps a nap, then by the time I’ve awoken something else would have happened. Perhaps a shower, then there will be other news.  5. By saving certain species, even keystone ones, are we impeding the natural growth/progress of the planet? These species are only vital to the world as we know it…but does that make saving them the right answer? Is the world always supposed to stay as we know it now? Oh just kidding. We’re attempting “de-extinction” now. You’re right. My bad. Why go forward when we can take 40,000 steps backward.  6. In 2010,...

*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.

A Short One (Archive)

One, two, three, four -- I can't take it any more. Five, six, seven, eight -- my brain won't let me just think straight. Nine, ten, let's do it again -- this is how it's always been.
