Are you listening? Are you there? Let’s take it back to Karen at the retail store. Let’s turn on our open minds as well as our infinite disgust at the fact that not one thing has ever been written that could reliably de-Karen-ize a human being immediately. Let’s turn on our hope that we’re justContinue reading “Spicy Gamer Vibes and The Banality of Karen – Level 15 : To a Karen, Retail Workers are like Pinball Machines, Ready To Have Their Buttons Pushed [Nightmare C: Good Desires]”

Spicy Gamer Vibes and the Banality of Karen – Level 12 : The Scummy Stalling of the Filibuster is a lot like Winning by Doing Nothing in Mario Party
I presume you’ve heard of the filibuster? A lot of the details are pretty complicated, but to put it simply, it’s a weird stalling tactic in the American legislature involving reading stuff that’s barely relevant. At some point in time, they nerfed the whole thing, and now it’s a lot less infamous and egregious thanContinue reading “Spicy Gamer Vibes and the Banality of Karen – Level 12 : The Scummy Stalling of the Filibuster is a lot like Winning by Doing Nothing in Mario Party”
Spicy Gamer Vibes and the Banality of Karen – Level 7 : Exploitative Explorers are like Goofy Glitch Hunters
They’re not teaching about Christopher Columbus like they used to. It’s a good thing, right? Talking about what people actually did, both intentional and not, rather than embellishing it under tactless grandiosity. Perhaps you’re among the types overjoyed to see holidays changed to honor the people exploited by conquistadors and the like. Perhaps it makesContinue reading “Spicy Gamer Vibes and the Banality of Karen – Level 7 : Exploitative Explorers are like Goofy Glitch Hunters”
The Heart’s Three Infamous Positive Energy Directives #9 – Frustration over Too Much Steam in a Shower is not Too Ugly of a Vibe
When I enter the shower, the hot steam feels nice. I like the contrast of the cold wind beyond the window, and the burning heat of the water inside of it. But almost every time, I find myself feeling something resembling self hatred. The steam becomes rather irritating. I can enjoy the heat on myContinue reading “The Heart’s Three Infamous Positive Energy Directives #9 – Frustration over Too Much Steam in a Shower is not Too Ugly of a Vibe”
The Heart’s Three Infamous Positive Energy Directives #5 – In Spain, Bread Can’t Go Just Anywhere (A Sedative for Irresistible Good Manners)
I read an article recently about table manners in the country of Spain. It’s a bit long-winded. I mean, there are a lot of rules. The most interesting ones, to me, were about bread. It’s a bit hard to explain exactly what you’re supposed to do with the bread. Something involving keeping the bread separateContinue reading “The Heart’s Three Infamous Positive Energy Directives #5 – In Spain, Bread Can’t Go Just Anywhere (A Sedative for Irresistible Good Manners)”
Inner Beauty Parry 12/23/21 – Refrigerated Cracker Angst is Still Worth Tempering (The Smile of Culture)
You want to know a physical object I have a fairly strong resentment for? It’s the refrigerated cracker. The cold crisp. The iced chip, not the chip of ice. I really hate the fact that in any scenario, a crunchy munchy snack could wind up inside of a refrigerator. They get soft, and damp, andContinue reading “Inner Beauty Parry 12/23/21 – Refrigerated Cracker Angst is Still Worth Tempering (The Smile of Culture)”
Dragon-Headed Research;Notes 10/24/21- The Supreme Court Tugs on Your Heart with Delicious Neutrality
You’ve heard of the Supreme Court, right? I mean, every American should know at least. Nine very, very important people, dealing with matters where laws…..start to fuck up very, very intricately. When the cards fall just right, matters within the 50 states are allowed to escalate, and become federal….or something like that. While I can’tContinue reading “Dragon-Headed Research;Notes 10/24/21- The Supreme Court Tugs on Your Heart with Delicious Neutrality”
THE HUNTERIAN OPIATE 9/15/21 – The Affectionate Spoiling of the Joys of Domino Art (a scientific smack of worldpeace)
Have you seen those domino art videos? They’re really fun, they’re really cool. I like watching dominoes smash into each other. It’s neat, it’s messy. It’s chaos controlled. It’s form and function. Domino art is somebody creating an extension of themselves. To give them credit for the dominoes is really appropriate and ridiculous at once.Continue reading “THE HUNTERIAN OPIATE 9/15/21 – The Affectionate Spoiling of the Joys of Domino Art (a scientific smack of worldpeace)”
Cultural Rave- This One’s About Hugh Mungus and Dunkin’ Donuts
A donut store, a coffee shop, a food-eating place, decides to boldly sever a part of its name. Left without the thing that made it what it is, it acts disconnected, though not quite, from much of what made it so successful. Strangely endearing, strangely frustrating, to try and refine one’s image by conforming toContinue reading “Cultural Rave- This One’s About Hugh Mungus and Dunkin’ Donuts”
The Theory of Aexeption / To Invoke Yourself (Invoke Yourself: A Human Manifesto 4.2) [FINAL STAGE]
I have told you what is my dream. I have let you feel the flames. I want to change the world I can now bend the waves. I may now push the change. So now I make a move. I do what I want to. But I have little else really new to say. SoContinue reading “The Theory of Aexeption / To Invoke Yourself (Invoke Yourself: A Human Manifesto 4.2) [FINAL STAGE]”
