ma5 in idea barrages

1.) For the first time in over three months, I wanted to clean the house, it felt like it needed doing, like it was worth doing, like it wasn’t just meaningless in the face of the weight of how awful and unfair the universe is. It’s a little thing but it’s something.

2.) In my nightmare last night, I cursed on a theme park ride and got kicked off and woke up singing a song of apology “I got caught up in the moment/and then it wasn’t the moment/I got caught up in a moment/and then it wasn’t the moment” for like five minutes straight.

3.) My update to Hemingway’s “baby shoes, never worn” four-word tragedy is “THAT guy is PRESIDENT?”

4.) Matt Harvey doesn’t have the talent left to justify his attitude, that’s all, that’s all. Hopefully Reyes and Gonzalez get released strictly on lack of talent merit soon, I s’pose.

5.) “Replace water filter now”. Oh, Keurig, you really believe that water filter made a noticeable difference where I’m going to actually go out and buy a new one, huh? Keurig, I respect that you live in hope but you’re gonna die in despair. Buy a new water filter. Riiiiiiiight.

6.) Only in America in the Bad Timeline could someone like Matt Walsh position “The Man-Cave” a decadent spoiled privileged space of isolation and overpriced electronic guff as a kind of oppression toward men. Where are the timetravelers to stop this world from happening to us?

7.) Swear to God, Dennis Miller was kinda funny, once, 30 years ago. This is what growing up is, I guess, watching people who once Had It drift into self-parody trying to hold onto talents ruined by years of isolating fame and success. Maybe as failures we’ll stay true to ourselves!

8.) They love whatever defends their privilege, they hate whatever doesn’t. That’s the only underpinning to their ethos, in that they are consistent. Give up on any idea of them as non-sociopaths & it’s totally rational. Soulless heartless cruel but completely internally consistent.
