Brazil nuts aren’t nuts! They’re fruit seeds. The fruit is the size of a cannonball.

Cutting someone slack doesn’t mean letting them go on behaving badly, it means understanding they need help to behave better.

Depends how you do it. But I can tell you three things it does for me:

• Allows me to detach from myself and sort of Alt-F4 a lot of those background processes that are churning up my anxiety and wasting my emotional energy.

• Lets me bank some calm that I can withdraw later in emergencies.

• Helps me practice shutting out distractions to focus on a single stimulus, eg. when someone is talking or when I need to watch something over a period of time.

Make it invite-only.

Nah, I’d go for books and music.

Unfortunately, I really only taught myself how to count, the days of the week, and the months of the year.

Replying opened the spoiler for me, but:

1. English (native)
2. Spanish (school)
3. Esperanto (self-taught)
4. Latin (university)

I can also count to five in German, and I used to know 1-10 in Swahili, but now only remember that “moja means one”

texts that say “when will you be home?”

Astral Aves was both hilarious and mystefying, with a real depth that made it stand out. It’s on indefinite hiatus, unfortunately.

Human memes for human themes!

Preferably text memes rather than image memes, as well.

When I was young, I went to every single show that came through my hometown.

Moving to Chicago for college, I went as often as there were bands I recognized , about three times a month.

Once I became a parent that shot downhill fast, to something like once every two months. I began to work nights and could almost never go. I’m back to a first shift schedule now and excited to start hitting the scene again, even if I’m too fat for the moshpit these days.

bruh it’s South Carolina

Frankly, I wish mine were better. I had no idea this was happening, so thanks for bringing it to my attention.

Tammy Duckworth is my senator.

I measure my productivity in how much art I create and how good a vibe I cultivate.

I suppose I could condense that into “how much beauty I bring to the world”.

Life Is Beautiful

Well, to immanetize the eschaton. That’s the worst thing to do with statistics.

I’m the guy who makes it weird. I don’t have a story, I am the story.
