Watching the creative process is even more attractive than the result.
1982:
The Obvious Corporation makes systems that help people work together to improve the world. The proliferation of technology can seem superfluous, but with the right approach, technology can benefit individuals, organizations, and society. We are relaunching the company that originally incubated Twitter with a high level of commitment to making a difference and developing products that matter.

I cannot help feeling there is something essentially wrong about love. Friends may quarrel or drift apart, close relations too, but there is not this pang, this pathos, this fatality which clings to love. Friendship never has that doomed look. Why, what is the matter? I have not stopped loving you, but because I cannot go on kissing your dim dear face, we must part, we must part.
This pang… this pathos… this fatality… must we part?

Love this… in theory. Need to continue to put it in practice.

To fall in love means to face the possibility of falling on my face.

post feet….loose a follower? haha
[Side note: my favorite pictures of feet are those on a beach. It’s the only time my feet glow in natural bliss. The rest of the time they are simply an ugly reality for the purpose of walking]
…i guess the other thousand or so of you don’t mind feet.
in fact, everyone should only blog feet today.
nov. 6th is feet day.
Here I am surfing the internet, wishing I was more well read, and posting pictures of others who read literature… versus just simply picking up a book myself. Tragic. It’s 1:20AM. My pillow calls.

Feeling the blood of family bond
despite the miles of distance
feel the weight of their worry and
hope happiness awakes them soon

It’s what one wonders about me with whom I wonder about one.

Unicorns aren’t real and have never been real in a physical sense. But when I say ‘unicorn’ everyone knows what I’m talking about. This is how they’re real: we all think about them more or less the same way. And they continue to ‘exist’ in this sense because the idea of a unicorn is totally awesome, and pleasant to think about (and doodle, and tattoo), so even though there’s no rational reason for us to continue using the brainspace dedicated to knowing what unicorns are, we still keep it lodged up in there. It’s nonsense, but it helps us communicate with other people. Politics is like a unicorn because it’s a collection of unreal things that we all agree to recognize, mostly because doing so beats not doing so.
This is how I feel about tomorrow… unicorns, politics, and birthdays.
Politics is a unicorn #1: Introduction
Mike Barthel is one of the brightest thinkers I know of on the internet (and a really, really fine writer), and for the rest of the week he’s going to be “explor[ing] the ways politics isn’t rational or real—and why that’s OK—for the public, the government, and the media”.
So get excited!

“He could not stop the thing in his mind that went on throwing words at him; it was like trying to plug a fire hydrant with his bare hands. Stinging jets, part words, part pictures, kept shooting at his brain.”
