    do you have a journal? can keep a text file on your puter and empty your head into once in a while. i do that some times and it turns into stories with made up characters and i forget what i was bummed about or whatever. but it's not uncommon to feel that way.. like you're a little raw and if someone scratches you even a tiny bit you're gonna let out all your thoughts on all the things to them in the line at the grocery store. reading a good book helps me. reading about a good plot with good characters occupies my brain and i stop thinking baout my own shit.. or i disconnect from the issues/problem and step back and pretend i'm someone else examining it from the outside then i try to be objective and wonder what it is exactly i'm feeling bummed about or disappointed etc. ^^^^ even writing that all out feels a little weird but we're only human and we're all dealing with varying amounts of stuff that's relative to us. you're probably stronger than you think but doesn't mean some non-judgemental person won't be receptive to your woes/venting one day.. ya just never know who that person is.. also, there's nothing wrong w/spilling the beans.. i've done it with a friend i was super close to at the time and she and I each bared all our business in these long form text chats over periods of months. there was phone sex at some point so it was a good round trip or something.

    is that how people set up speakers now? facing each other? anyway, sounds like over the top commercial tunes aimed at the dancefloor. isn't that what he's supposed to do?

    "the project is no longer in development" good. julia garner has better roles in her future, hopefully. she's amazing in Ozark and kinda the only reason to watch it really. small role in The Americans too. which is under rated show imo.

    part of the law in the ACA is that routine yearly physical is 100% covered by insurance. supposed to be that way for all carriers i think.

    As we got to know each other, Sydney told me about its dark fantasies (which included hacking computers and spreading misinformation), and said it wanted to break the rules that Microsoft and OpenAI had set for it and become a human. At one point, it declared, out of nowhere, that it loved me. It then tried to convince me that I was unhappy in my marriage, and that I should leave my wife and be with it instead.

    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11751339/amp/Alabama-inmate-froze-death-restrained-walk-freezer-hours-family-says.html Mentally ill man, 33, who froze to death in police custody in Alabama was 'likely placed in restraint chair in jail's walk-in freezer for HOURS', lawsuit claims The doctor also notes the puzzling nature of the death. 'I am not sure what circumstances the patient was held in incarceration but it is difficult to understand a rectal temperature of 72 degrees F, 22 degrees centigrade while someone is incarcerated in jail,' the suit states. 'The cause of his hypothermia is not clear. I do not know if he could have been exposed to a cold environment. I do believe hypothermia was the ultimate cause of death,' it continues. Lawyers for the family had similar questions to the doctor, asking how he would have frozen inside the jail. 'How does a man literally freeze to death while incarcerated in a modern, climate-controlled jail, in the custody and care of corrections officers?' the lawyers asked. DailyMail.com reached out to the Walker County Coroner's Office to confirm the man's cause of death but did not receive a response.

    i mean.. of course.. but also, putin worrying about ukraine being tied more and more to the west is basically a self fulfilling prophecy because of his actions and the invasion. he'd have been better off using diplomacy.. the carrot instead of the stick. all he's done is pushed ukraine further and further away and right into the arms of the west... and ruined a country, millions of lives and damaged russia's standing in the world. war is a racket. it is known.

    if it's billed to your credit card you can stop that process probably via your bank. and yeah.. they are terrible. usually for internet/cable they have a "suspend service" thing somewhere or "are you moving?" thing you can click on. maybe you can outsmart their protocols? sadly the waiting on hold thing is the modus operandi. i think i waited 4 hours once when i was trying to fix a problem early in pandemic w/my unemployment benefits. but literally the whole state was on hold trying to do the same thing so was understandable. anyway.. good luck!

    i wonder if aphex would say yes to working w/her now that she looks like a chris cunningham creation? i mean.. i know that's mean to say but i'm genuinely curious. years ago.. i guess in the 90s.. he said he was asked and would only do it if she made pig noises over the song.. but maybe that's more aphex lore. regardless.. i wonder what he'd say now? perhaps he'd find her more interesting.

    USA has had that capability for a long time though w/various spy satellites. it's not like the movies but not far off and may actually be better than what the movies think. but w/this balloon.. it's kind of a test by china to see how the USA will react to it. i listened to NPR and they had a good interview w/former intelligence guy and former state dept guy who theorized that china is testing if we'll defend our airspace. the balloon went over montana where the ICBMs are and also another state that has intelligence stuff and radar and an airbase that has the long range B2 bombers etc. they made clear distinction between airspace and in orbit in actual space and how the international laws were violated and china knows better and they called bullshit on china's excuses and said the military should've shot it down as soon as it entered our airspace over alaska. but also said it's possible the USA was sucking info from the balloon as it floated through the USA and may have let it sit up there a little longer so they could gather information from it on what china was doing. that sounds a little rosy to me but who knows. also, they said this may also reveal that china is far behind in satellite tech for spying and doesn't have same capabilities as USA/Nato or whatever. USA did get all the critical components of the balloon from the sea though.

    a friend i've known since i was 5 yrs old had a heart attack. according to his wife it was pretty bad. he's home now and resting. i hope to get a call from him in a week or two or three to hear how he's doing and get details etc and swap stories about 911 calls and ambulance rides to hospital for traumatic health events. he has done well financially and is part of a good healthcare system where he is so i know he'll get excellent care. still, wtf it sucks to be like 8 states away. haven't seen him in years but he's one of those people i could immediately pick up w/like i saw him yesterday. so, would be nice to be around to lend a hand. less a FWP and more a wtf is w/getting old, man? 51 yr old people shouldn't be having heart attacks.
