Sometimes you have to look beyond what people want you to look at. #life #success

Hm. This is the 10th year of the Apple Watch. Time flitters.

Hm. #math.

Would you ever support an inferior product?

In the US, we.get mattress companies popping up this time of year. The ads start flooding in from no-name companies hoping to make a name from people wanting to spend money before the holidays. Most of these involve variations on air mattresses. There is nothing new in mattresses. #business #failure

So, what’s everyone doing this November now that NaNoWriMo is out? #writing #november

I need to start gathering a box o’ books for Creatures, Crime and Creativity this coming week. #mdc3con #books

I’m having a decent day despite the snarkiness.

“He looked at me as I pulled a wad of bills out of my pocket. ‘Whoever said money equated to power or that power was something worth having was an idiot. You don’t need money or power to be happy or successful. It’s obvious that the more money you have the more of an idiot you become.’” #writing

In the distant past as in 2025 we have prejudice, division, fear, hate, sponsored wars and greed. What will 2026 bring? What will 2125 bring? More of the same. Why would you expect humans to suddenly see a reason to be different? #humans #life #failure

Hoping to get something back from the editor this week. #writing #coinsofdestiny

I’m in a snarky mood, it seems. More so than the average.

There should be more fonts and fewer emojis, Apple. #apple #failure

I still dont understand the appeal of college football-apart from gambling, which I never do. #usfootball #college #sport

Had some people show up at the front door asking me if I want to live forever. Answering no pretty much shocked them until I asked, why would I want more of wars, suffering, marketing,and assorted other ills. Not to mention personal problems. They walked away never to be seen again.

Time only slips away if you don’t pay attention. Ever watch a pot boil?

Time to find some luncheon.

XOJO question/help needed. From everything I see, this should work fine. This is on a Mac and XOJO has access to my folders. I get an IOException (with no reason) creating a TextOutputStream. All the FolderVariable items are correct. I must be missing something obvious. #programming #xojo
