I'm not sure who bothers me more: boring people who insist that I'm the uninteresting one or one-sided conversations with narcissists who only want to talk about themselves.

Rechanneling all my frustration about Valentine's Day into the ancient Roman holiday of Lupercalia. If you see me circling a hill counterclockwise in a wolf's skin and screaming, that's why.

I feel very alone and unappreciated. Times like these I try my best to appreciate myself more and give myself good company. Some days it certainly feels easier than others though. What do you do when facing similar challenges?

I am so disconnected from the cultural zeitgeist (or perhaps just that thick-headed) that it only just occurred to me now despite seeing multiple reminders during the week that today's Superbowl Sunday. All my best to those who observe.

My recurring problem with social media is I get to the social part and remember how much I hate socializing. Lot of one-sided conversations and vacuousness. But, what else is new, I suppose?

I'm trying to be a less judgmental hateful person, but I just watched a YouTube video where someone pronounced Baudrillard as "Bow-Drill-Ard" and I swear to God...

What's the better "hype yourself up for the upcoming week" song: "Mr. Blue Sky" or "St. Elmo's Fire (Man in Motion)"? Usually, I'm a "Mr. Blue Sky" kind of guy, but today I can see a new horizon underneath the blazin' sky and want to be where the eagle's flyin' higher and higher &tc. &tc.

I think the last time I was this happy on a Friday I was looking forward to enjoying the antics of one Steve Urkel.

I hope that all of you manage to find hope and joy in these troubling times. Many days I find myself struggling to do the same but I have yet to completely fail in this endeavor.

Monday morning mood: glad I talked myself out of bed (but just barely) www.youtube.com/watch?v=0XC1...

Starting an account over here. Expect more of the same for those who followed elsewhere (shitposting, memes, feeble attempts at wit, occasional flashes of genuine insight, etc.)
