: YouTube and other online platforms being so absolutely, cravenly desperate for content and for users' time is what's driving me to spend less time online. Regular YT videos, plus Shorts, plus Games, plus PPV movies, and all and in such a glaringly desperate layout designed to split attention and run users down rabbit holes is a legit turn-off, just like Facebook. There's a difference between multitasking and being scatterbrained.

: "I think I'm a little autistic, too."
"We're all a little autistic."

It's always good when someone tells me they do one thing and that that means they're a little autistic. Quiz them on the other stuff, and ask if they have most or *all* of the, and then the convo gets awkward for them real fast.

"50 Ways to Leave Your Lover"
The Short One

This is the first song I remember consciously recognizing -- that wasn't a Sesame Street or other kind of children's song. I was four years old. I remember where I was and what I was doing when I realized I recognized it.

: This mood and song is almost always somewhere in one of my 6, sometimes 7 trains of thought at any given hour. That's in part because I love this video made for the song. And also because while I don't run away with my anger caused by other people over my life, I let it run around in my head like it wants to.
