The weird human expressions one sees on YouTube thumbnails is a form of click-bait and spam. Too bad that most haven’t realized that, and still do it. Everyone bows to the algorithm. No one has anything creative to say. #youtube #failure #spam #marketing

Observed: “The innocuous man at the bar, who bordered somewhere between pudgy and obese, and wearing a knit sport shirt with an undefinable pattern in vomit green, adjusted his glasses as he scanned the menu, only to doomscroll on his phone.” #writing #character

Hello. It’s a sloppy morning even though the rains have eased off. Time for the ceremonial coffee.

Plan for tomorrow: — edit the short story — errands — scribbling ideas for the next book — games — food

Happy The Slugs Return From Capistrano Day Yes, it’s a thing.

Hello. Rain all day, here. Good day to sleep in. Too bad I have things to do. Time for the ceremonial coffee.
