I’m sorry. I always wondered what you people with a “mind’s eye” were seeing; when I close /my/ peepers I just get black. I’m not sorry about my neurovisual projector putting apple and meta’s helmet projects in the dustbin where they belong. I’m not sorry I’ve brought sight to the blind […]

Everyone laughs and laughs at cats getting into boxes, but if you put a chair-height cube in a room with a human they will sit on it.
So, who is manipulated by the box now?

My spouse and I chose this house, 20-plus years ago, because besides being a nice building, it had a park at the end of the street, bus stops either end, a corner store (RIP, now a pilates studio) and a shopping plaza less than a klick away. “Location, location, location” as the realtors say.

I am in that liminal space between sunrise and the 10:40am Doctor’s appointment (that being the earliest booking slot I could get). The original intent to drive to work early, then drive back has slipped by. First and second coffee has been and gone. I got the laptop out but put it away when it […]

The world shimmered and faded like what I imagined the inside view must be like of getting Beamed in that old TV show.

Normally I'd post a link to the episode on the show's website, but it appears that the show doesn't actually have a website, it's only available through podcast apps... hm. So uh, go find it yourself, I guess? […]
