    Cool to see Malibu, Santa Monica, and Venice from above, my childhood playground. There&#39;s some weird geology north of LA, folded sediments. I&#39;ll have to look it up. The place we lived in the desert for a couple of years in the late 60&#39;s is unrecognizable, by me, anyway. 70&#39;s F here. Headed someplace a teeny bit warmer 🌴🐠🍹πŸ₯­πŸ Dreading the long flight, maybe I can sleep. I swore I&#39;d never do it again, but πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ LAX is just bigger, no memories of it from gate 69A. Could be anywhere.

    &quot;Maybe I have faith after all. Maybe faith is belief without reassurance. I&#39;d like to borrow some of that. Have at it, though it ain&#39;t no picnic.&quot; Tom&#39;s Crossing #WhatImReading

    Alex Ross in the New Yorker: &quot;You wake up and brace yourself for the barrage of toxic gibberish that constitutes the modern public sphere. Your e-mail is overrun with spam, scams, and smut. There are voicemails from no one about nothing. A glance at the news reveals that the President is continuing to spew lies and obscenities; that a trillionaire is peddling white-supremacist propaganda on a social-media platform he owns; that a chart-topping musical artist is praising Hitler, or apologiz...

    Cw morbid: in times of intense smoke, for me there&#39;s a thing of not quite red carpet &quot;who are you wearing,&quot; but who are you breathing.

    Mildly apocalyptic out there today in the smoky heat, I&#39;ve seen a few makeshift burnouses, I guess that&#39;s not that unusual for Eugene. Not a lot of flannel today. People more concerned with surviving the day than being bitchy about it. My not so glamorous life. But I wanted a globe from the thrift. Didn&#39;t find one, so it was me and my skein of yarn wandering through the smoker that is Oregon today. The low income routes have transit cops.

    I had a lyric on my mind today. Looking up a Talking Heads lyrical fragment can be a journey. Looking at a list of song titles... I take it for granted that I can dive into a discography like that, unimaginable when I was a kid, not just because they weren&#39;t a band yet. The weirdest part is that I couldn&#39;t find it and remembered it was Paul Simon. I could *never* have imagined confusing David Byrne with Paul Simon. These are the days of miracle and wonder πŸ˜†

    I woke up this morning trying to say &quot;synechdoche.&quot; I know how to say it, but not before caffeine. I kept stumbling midway through, it was kind of funny. No clue of the context of synechdoche, I think it has to do with the book I was reading when I fell asleep. But I like it when I wake up laughing, your turn next....

    I didn&#39;t do a thing today worth writing home about, that&#39;s fine, but I did get some of the rice I like to finish the soup. When in doubt, cook some rice. It&#39;s an organic sprouted brown short grain rice, sounds woo woo, but if it&#39;s there, why not πŸ˜†

    It&#39;s another wild Saturday night. One of us is watching Hail Mary again, but they seem fine with it. I really like the German actor who plays the head of the project, I&#39;d like to see some of her films.

    This windblown immature horse chestnut on the front walk in no way implies that summer will ever end, I tell myself every year.

    Crickets are really loud out back. Such a relaxing sound on summer nights. The people that lived here before had a hammock out there, I was always waking up at 2 AM shivering and disoriented πŸ˜†
