Going into the field (my everyday life) to do some research on the pervasiveness and aggressivity of the worldwide attention hijacking apparatus (may the inventor of gas pump advertisements be strung up by his knuckle-hairs), will report back with the results next weekend.

After going to quite a few bookstores since before Christmas, I've been seeing that book by the record producer with the circumpunct on the cover being shilled everywhere. It seems to be what the trendy people are reading these days, and lo and behold a YouTuber I follow made a video about it. Honestly makes me think about how much sway traditional publishing still has on the priorities and thoughts of the general public even if hardly anyone buys their stuff.

Religion and politics often make some people lose all perspective and give way to ranting and raving and carrying on like emotional children they either refuse to discuss it with reason or else they prefer argumentum ad hominem which is a hell of a way to conduct a discussion well anyhow not long ago I was talking about the elections and how the campaigns were ignoring the issues and sticking instead to invective and personal crap that had nothing to do with the substantive problems of running a government which is all true as you know if you followed the speeches and so-called debates of the candidates anyhow one of the guys I was talking with said not a word in the whole conversation except at the end when he suddenly chuckled and said we were all full of shit and why didn't we go live in Russia or China if that was the way we all hated the United States of America next thing you know the whole blooming discussion was more like a brawl and the epithets flew thick and fast and the noise was incredible someone said son of a bitch and I think he said bastard I couldn't be sure it was all so confusing well anyhow I was attempting to get it all back on a rational level I tried for example to talk to the one who started it all and I asked him just what did he mean we were all full of shit was he making a statement of fact as he knew it and where was his documentation to back up his claim I think Socrates would have been proud of the way I refuted his argument that is I tried to refute it but all he could offer by way of rebuttal was more of the same of how we were all full of shit but he wouldn't say why he just kept repeating it that and the part about Russia and China and communist dupes and I'll have to confess that I got a bit angry and told him to stuff his ideas up his ass which you don't have to tell me is hardly a way to convince anyone in an argument then he got salty and threatened to give me a punch in the mouth if I didn't shut up and I really got huffed and the others did too and we all beat the shit out of mister conservative and after all he had only himself to be blamed this is still a free country and anyone telling a fellow like me brother you're full of shit better be good and ready to answer politely when asked if he'd care to say why!

ELVIS 2024

-Saw the aftermath of two separate fatal accidents where a Honda CR-V was totally destroyed
-Got lost looking for a river
-Ate at a Mexican restaurant that hadn't served a gringo in weeks

It's been an interesting day so far.

These two are the best of friends
