I went through a phase where I decided to start going to bed in the middle of the afternoon and starting my day at 10pm and it felt like tampering with the very fabric of time

day one of living alone: this is great! I get to leave my dishes on the table and hog the TV all evening!

day 7: I think I’m gonna walk to the store and bring home a lizard

The Lutherans should have been cave mystics. Their focus on the supremacy of the word and individualist soteriology would be perfect for caves. The Lutherans should have taken their Bibles and their printing presses and sealed themselves within the earth with several tons of canned peaches. They would've learned to eat olms and drink from underground springs and read their Bibles with their newly evolved huge eyes. I want them pious and salamandrine.

What is your favorite word?

Pervert. Layered and eminently useful. So many important things are deviant, impassioned, and libidinal. Salacious mouthfeel, purr-able alveolars and fricatives with a stop you can spit.

"Do you ever dream of land?" The whale asks the tuna.

"No." Says the tuna, "Do you?"

"I have never seen it." Says the whale, "but deep in my body, I remember it."

"Why do you care," says the tuna, "if you will never see it."

"There are bones in my body built to walk through the forests and the mountains." Says the whale.

"They will disappear." Says the tuna, "one day, your body will forget the forests and the mountains."

"Maybe I don't want to forget," Says the whale, "The forests were once my home."

"I have seen the forests." Whispers the salmon, almost to itself.

"Tell me what you have seen," says the whale.

"The forests spawned me." Says the salmon. "They sent me to the ocean to grow. When I am fat with the bounty of the ocean, I will bring it home."

"Why would the forests seek the bounty of the oceans?" Asks the whale. "They have bounty of their own."

"You forget," says the salmon, "That the oceans were once their home."
