My next appointment is on the 16th, mostly a follow up on the new RX and how it’s doing. Then, the annual mammogram, the follow-up with physiatry on the lumbar situation, and finally, on the 27th, my “new patient” appointment where options are discussed and treatment plan is undertaken for this rent-free bastard living in […]
I am an apple, cored my seeds, now racing from me my energy, a fruit, desiccated I rest closer than breath to the ancestral tree It is the way of things, I think; all life feeds off of living, feeds off its environment, feeds off of whatever is slow enough to be captured, to be caught, […]
For those who still do not seem to grok the depth and breadth of sophistication that is only accelerating in surveillance methods and techniques, I submit this paper (one author of which is noted, “Work done at Google.” on the first page). In it, you will find that technology can now parse video, audio, and […]
Humans have spent all existence confining, defining, and refining concepts of relation between things. Any activity can be defined as a series of state changes whose only common denominators are energy / matter in a positive / negative / imponderable state. The level of refinement needed is inversely proportionate to the level of sustainability expected. The […]
There’s something liberating about the blank page. The initial thought is to just regurgitate the past; that somewhat odd manner of lingering over it as if it holds an inherent value or impact upon this “now” that I have not, knowingly or ignorantly, granted place, point, and purpose in my being, life, and mind. I […]

Did you know the United Nations is pushing something called “ID2020“? Have you actually thought about how easy it is to profile and track you thanks to technology you willingly carry in your pocket? So much argument about “whether or not its real”. How real do you need it to be? There is the website. […]
I will preface this by saying that, in my oh-so-humble opinion, you can put any word of relation in place of the word [love] in this item. It is nice to feel confident in that opinion, and pretty much all the soft and hard sciences support it, so I can even say (and savor) that […]
My path has ever rolled like an avalanche along; in precious, raw, rough parallels, our movements met and, for a moment, harmonized. A moment’s harmony is not a song, but the moment of harmony creates possibility in all who experience it. My wobbling trajectory, with all its graceless noise, was steadied, albeit a transient state, […]
