may 26 in idea barrages

Claire Saffitz video. She is making English muffins. I start hearing the classic rock song “slow ride” as “DOUGH RISE”. This is what it is like to live in my head.

Eventually, an ideologue either wins & has nothing left to conquer or loses & finds only allies vulnerable to their attacks. Either way the eating of their own begins. Relevancy’s the most addictive drug on Earth & no matter the ideal, lead long enough & you’re hooked. Nomnomnom.

NO CREDIT? NO, PROBLEM! BAD CREDIT? NO, PROBLEM! VALUES SLASHED! EVERYTHING MUST GO!

“Hi. I’m Steve Ubway, founder & CEO of Subway, and we started our sandwich shops on one simple idea: it’s right there. It’s not anything more than okay but do you wanna do it? Do you really want to shop for and then assemble a sandwich? No. You’re tired. You’re so very tired. Here at Subway, we understand the illusion of choice. You want to think you have some kind of power, a sweet lie life has crushed out of you. Come to Subway, make someone else do it. Feel for a moment like you have control over something, anything, even just a goddamn sandwich. You will have your sandwich. It won’t be great but someone will ask you questions as if the answers matter. It will be right along the path between two other places life forces you to shuttle between anyway. As we like to say around these parts… Subway! It’s right there.”
