Hannah Gadsby's Brouhaha



...gave birth to this!



So many identities, many with astrological signs.

Agenda (brilliantly) served.

Forecast



What is old age if not an opportunity to swan about in a silk kimono, dropping pearls of wisdom behind you like a trail of breadcrumbs?


This is going to be very expensive.

K-Dramas And Mexican TV

 


Korean romance series remind me a bit of Mexican television shows. While an ocean apart, both are over the top and restrained in ways that surprise and delight me.

Schitt's Creek



I am having a moment. Clips from Schitt's Creek are really hitting the spot for me. Can't get enough.

Can't stop me.

Belonging



waves roll in from the Minch

harassed by gale force winds


rain distorts the world

I see through my glasses


I am startled to realize 

my hair resembles Auður's cloak


that I feel kinship 

with the crofter's cottage--


made of local materials

warm and at ease amidst the storm


sturdy in the elements

in this place

It's A Problem




there is a particular brand

of American crazy


spittle flying

righteous fury

nostrils flared

all razzle dazzle


or


calm and clear-eyed

requiring a double-take

 because you could have sworn

up was down

and down was up


neither version

is marked by much shame


it's a kid having a

temper tantrum

relying on intimidation


or 


hiding in the middle of the rug

with their eyes closed

because they don't understand physics


either way

it's a zero sum game

with heavy artillery


and the future

already played out
