I am a bit of a logophile and enjoy a good symmetry and chaos alike. I travel less than I wish, eat more than one needs and my sleep is rather deficient.
I grow tired of the constant back and forth between political duelist and on occasion go media dark to avoid it. I do understand though that this pressure is needed to keep each side in check or at least as visible as possible from misdeeds.

Dear random woman in the line in front of me. Please forgive me but I was not looking at your chest but rather trying to read the title of the book you had under your arm. The font looked amazing. #booksky

There is a certain point that a child actor is a dud and should be recast. It typically happens on tv shows from the 1st season to the 2nd. Some have the ability to reconnect with the audience and some just never grow.

I just finished a book that took me over a month. It was the most miserable thing. The language was weird and so many words were thrown in for no reason. The only thing that kept me going was the story. Finally the epilogue explained the reason that he was paid by the character. #booksky

I refuse to DNF a book, not out of principle, but because I believe if I stop reading it, the characters will know. Like they'll feel it. I don't even like most of them. But still.

After watching a guy for two years slowly fill his pool with yard waste and broken concrete he finally broke all the support around the rim and caved the pool in. He said he will spend the next year filling it with dirt. 3 years of frugal dedication.

People say I am no fun anymore but that is not the case, I just don't find your humor funny anymore. Being mean and calling it a joke is just not what I want to deal with now in my life.

Read a few articles about companies having to lay off employees because they took out long term contracts for AI. The problem is the ROI is not what they expected and they no longer have senior staff to correct the gap. They also can't enforce the non competes. 2026 is gonna be interesting.

You can spend your life savings on a vacation. You don't spend your life savings on a house, you are investing money into a house. It is just a conversion of money, the money is not gone it is just in another form.

I have developed a habit of posting a rant and a few days later deleting it. People don't want to listen to my BS but I can't seem to help myself.

I just asked AI to put my paper in MLA style and the student teacher to the professor popped up in a new window and said the line spacing was wrong and marked me down 10 points.

We used to get a moment of calm around this time. I probably will not see that happen again in my lifetime but I have my memories of when it was.

I took my dog out to pee and I received 2 nude selfies, an apology about being the wrong number and a request to please delete the pictures. I was outside for like 3 minutes. I have no idea how she figured out her mistake so quick.

My friend was diagnosed with dementia two years ago. He has quietly battled the symptoms but a few months ago he stopped walking and recently his wife informed us it has been difficult getting him to eat and he may be near his end. Sir it was an honor to know you and I wish you peace. #dementia

Watching someone buy a product locally, unbox product on camera and then immediately try to use said product but the moment the product does not do what they want it to do proceeds to bash it. The bias of the title was meant strictly for clicks and I sure they returned it the once camera was off.

All these media outlets holding concerts so you can watch from the safety of your home while they make a ton on ad revenue. You know they are banking on the chaos in today's world.

A woman got tired of her handcrafted creations being copied and then mass produced so she bought a bunch in bulk modified all the imperfections and sold them as her own. I guess it can still be called handmade depending on the modifications she made to the knockoffs.

I downloaded one of those build an empire type of games yesterday. I built the village, I gathered the supplies and I created an alliance and then went to bed. I woke up to 45 people in the alliance all telling me to give up leadership because I was inactive. I WAS SLEEPING! #mobilegaming #rude

Facebook trying to pull a fast one and force me to give them my phone number. I saw that very small exit at the very bottom. You don't need my phone number, you want my phone number. #Sneaky
