Photo By Toa Heftiba on unsplash.com I’m so distracted and out of focus. I can’t hold onto a thought, let alone follow it to a logical and meaningful conclusion. Sure, my attention span is woefully lacking on a good day. It’s so short, calling it a span seems like a gross overestimation of my ability... Continue Reading →
You Can’t Complain!
Photo by Bernard Hermant on unsplash.com Oh, I beg to differ, and I’m mildly offended. You’re seriously underestimating my abilities. What’s this “can’t” word you speak of? It does not compute, register, or sound like a word spoken in the queens English. I can’t, allegedly, complain? Girrrl. Boyyy. Um, insert your preferred pronoun, and own... Continue Reading →
Well That Was Refreshing
Photo by Jon Tyson on unsplash.com A few days ago, I posted a picture on Instagram wearing a mask and hashtagged it wear your damn mask. It’s not a political statement. The only agenda I’m pushing is one where I don’t die from the thing that I cannot mention. You know it. You hate it... Continue Reading →
There’s A Glass On A Table
Photo by Pixabay from Pexels There’s an empty glass sitting on a table, and someone walks over with a jug of water. They start to pour the water, and we sit there, transfixed. We watch the clear liquid cascade out of the jug like a waterfall in miniature. Water hits the bottom of the glass. It splashes, almost... Continue Reading →
A Realist Walks Into A Magical Forest
Photo by Johannes Plenio on Unsplash.com The wind is howling outside my window. I think the building just shuddered or was that a flinch? The glass is rattling. The trees are bending and twisting. How can something so sturdy bend like that? Do they practice yoga when we’re not looking, or is it a more... Continue Reading →
As Controversial As A Porg
Photo By Matteo Catanese on Unsplash.com I’m going to say something so controversial that I think some of you might never talk to me again. There will be rage, hurt, and maybe some tears. Strong emotions. Overwhelming? Perhaps, but just know that your feelings are valid. How you express these feelings might need some fine-tuning.... Continue Reading →
A Case Of The Wibbly Wobbilies
Photo by Jeremy Thomas on Unsplash.com Time. A swirling vortex of mass, substance, and neon luminescent gas. Ever-changing, evolving, turning itself inside and out. A chameleon and a con man. The good guy and the villain. The hero and the arch-nemesis. All-consuming and apathetic. It is everything and it is nothing at all. An illusion.... Continue Reading →
The Meaningless Meaning Of An Outbreak Monkey

Isolated in... Continue Reading →
The Existential Crisis Of Chipmunk Urine

First World Smudges
Photo By: Ed Leszcznskl on Unsplash.com Damn it, I have to clean my glasses again. It’s the pandemics fault! No, I’m not being ridiculous. You're being ridiculous. What? I don't know! Before this, I didn’t have to wipe smudges off my glasses nearly as often. Now, every ten minutes there’s a new smudge. I blame... Continue Reading →
