Someone once asked me something like what was my favorite cereal and I told them I like blue foods. Blue lobsters look really cool, though I don’t think the pigment changes the taste. They might even taste worse than a normal lobster for reason only the lobster psychologist can tell us. I do enjoy theContinue reading “20 lbs of lobster meat can fill a 13 gallon trashcan”

There has probably never been a human as brilliant as I
I’m writing this with music in my ears, so I thought my train of thought might be a bit sporadic. I then realized, that’s every time I write. The music is Bach’s mass in B minor. It’s honestly wild that this sort of stuff exists and that it’s no longer the height of culture. IContinue reading “There has probably never been a human as brilliant as I”
Why was sending monkeys into space ok
Hey today is 1/20/2020, if only we had 20 months in a year, I’d finally get around to finishing my memoirs. I’ll tell you a little about my day, I went to the grocery store and then drove through downtown and felt ancient. There were kids everywhere, I couldn’t figure out what was happening andContinue reading “Why was sending monkeys into space ok”
Two things I’ve been listening to lately are Jordan Peterson and Eminem
I love you morning pages, but you are an illusive beast. Everyday I have to pray the muses are gracious enough to visit me so I’m not left empty handed. I don’t really ever plan on looking back at my morning pages, though I do like the concept of seeing what I was thinking thisContinue reading “Two things I’ve been listening to lately are Jordan Peterson and Eminem”
To the dreams you’ve been waiting for
Welcome back Chris, we’ve been waiting for you. Tell us more of your secrets. I need a compelling story and the only way you’ll be a good character is to have more depth. Then you’ll be replaced with a robot version… nah this whole line of thought is trash. I liked the idea of myContinue reading “To the dreams you’ve been waiting for”
Day of Recognizing
What a whirlwind of a day. I met up with Lee today to see if I would like to do some work for him and it went well. I talked to one of the guys from woodworking that was a philosophy major, and I reached out to him! Had a good drawing day, did dinnerContinue reading “Day of Recognizing”
Never Dare Sit Bare in a Leather Chair
I’ve got my live drawing class today, it starts at 6pm. I hate having obligations later in the day because it feels like a weight I have to drag around all day. I keep going, “Ok, this many more hours till I have to leave for that.” A place I would like to get toContinue reading “Never Dare Sit Bare in a Leather Chair”
Kierkegaard is an Absolute Unit
I was doing my mindfulness and wanted to think more on the experience. The idea of mindfulness is something taught during the group therapy, so I haven’t done it since we last met in November. What I do is sit still for five minutes a day and try to keep my mind quiet. It’s theContinue reading “Kierkegaard is an Absolute Unit”
Ozymandias
Today was my first day back at group therapy, it’s oddly satisfying to see those people again and sad that some are gone. It’s sold as a three module course that each consist of meeting once a week for 8 weeks. I think there’s a bond between people because you’re talking about a part ofContinue reading “Ozymandias”
Why is pleasure seeking so powerful?
Obviously we want good things, but the immediate pleasures lead to me hating myself. I know there’s some stone that has to be turned so I can not have that as my default reaction, but the cycle will still stand. Is it because I can’t really see into the future like my mind things itContinue reading “Why is pleasure seeking so powerful?”
