On the off-chance that trying to sustain a train of thought for longer than 10 seconds feels like chasing globs of mercury across an ever-tilting floor. If you wanna beat the constant churn of the algorithm.

wondering what being dogpilled looks like? I eavesdropped on neighbour's kid's bday party—without wanting to, it was outside my window—and learned that we say hi to our dog the way most people talk to babies. with big, sweet voices full of love and awe.

Just finished FERVOUR by Toby Lloyd and I CAN'T STOP TALKING ABOUT IT. I usually love to harp on about #books that piss me off, so it's a delight to be unable to shut up about one I loved. There is family dysfunction, Jewish mysticism, teen angst and even a hint of #darkacademia —so much to love

1. AI messed up trying to recreate an en-face image from the profile-oriented image I have up on LinkedIn. You can kind of see a possible continuity/resemblance if you squint. &
2. Linguistics as a possible keyword connection, though I'm not really sure how that would work here.

I'm working on a story about long-distance hikes (think 3+ months on trail) and the difficulties in adapting to "normal life" once back home. If you are or know someone who's had this experience, would you be open to a short interview?
