I bet, from a higher perspective, humans are very beautiful when they're little kids and their favorite thing is, like, going to 7-11 or something.

People are getting funnier about sad things?
Seems that way to me sometimes.

William Elliott Whitmore – Diggin' My Grave Lyrics | Genius Lyrics

A picnic with a view!
It was a bit chilly but not unpleasantly so.
I tried a bowl from CAVA and it was very good.
"April 29, 1992 (Miami)" ~ Sublime
X: I don't think I ever heard that song before. Play it again.
Y: I'll do it later. I wasn't thrilled about playing it in a park where everyone could hear
X: I don't think many people heard it.
And before leaving I saw a fire hydrant with two flip-flops hanging off of it: one of them was the adult flip flop, and the other one was the tiny kid flip-flop.
Every day has highlights!
Saw two little dogs who were incredibly cute in the driver's seat of a car, but the picture doesn't really do them justice at all...
Got to try a taco place I'd been wanting to try. Also discovered a Sinaloense restaurant I might try later (it said that; it didn't say "Mexican.")
X: Hey, let's do the thing with the street taco where we make it into two little tacos since it has two tortillas on it.
Y: Okay, I guess, if you want to.
X: I will make it. Because you just sit there and look at it! I will be the mommy and make it happen!
Y: You're the one who wanted it.
It is an imperfect world. I am working on viewing the world through a more matriarchal lens, too.
I'm pouring myself a peach bellini and sharing this.
Y: "What are the more effective ways?"
X: "I don't know. I guess we'd have to research it."

I kind of feel so much working class Watervliet energy coming back at right now. But women in my childhood didn't have feminist content to watch on YouTube. They had the "Clouds in my coffee..." song by Carly Simon. And Jane Fonda aerobics. And diets! Teenage girls had babysitting jobs and MTV. And there were advertisements in the back of Seventeen magazine about very thin, happy girls in bikinis going away to a camp in La Jolla, California, and having all your dreams come true could happen after you lost weight.
I have ascertained that having a large audience for your content can change the dynamics.

Maybe I should participate on these kinds of forums more often.
"Emily of New Moon (and beyond) dog and cat symbolism"
I think the most interesting information in these magazines are the lists of restaurants.
Apparently I live near 30 high-elevation vineyards. I didn't know that. There's two tasting rooms. I knew that.
It sounds like she had quite an interesting grandmother.

Anyways, not really.
I would like to go to a bar and drink now. Well you're not going to because it's 6 a.m. Also, people drink coffee in the morning and that's a much better beverage for you now. But you don't have to drink that, either.
A lot more years, or not???
How many more years do some people have to be poor and traumatized just so some other people can feel more special?
This would be a fun food song to cover.

Honestly, it really feels like the super reliable adults are in such incredibly short supply sometimes.
Maybe I'll have a weird sleep and get some insights.
Indie artists who give you that "You can't fight City Hall" feeling.
One encounters people when out in nature sometimes.
One of these includes a picture of a boy feeding gummy bears to ants and talking to them.

Gonna make someone watch Part 2 of the Thoreau documentary with me real soon. I made an entertainingly exaggerated laugh and the cat ran away. Oops. Cat parents make mistakes sometimes!
Just paying a little bit of attention to some tough stuff; just a little!!!
Also, going to take myself on a good walk in nature soon. 🐦🌳🐇🌄

It's a feeling of being well; what a luxury.
Oh my gosh, I've gone a lot of days without seething teething / compulsively chewing on my clothes or fingers. Again, this is what it's like to be feeling much better in a certain space. Now I feel rich!

It could be they want our planet to get better.
Maybe some good alien intelligences are concerned about the disparity when it comes the way certain people are being treated and how it is affecting children. How ridiculous is it that somebody who is born to a certain set of circumstances is more likely to get kidnapped and be put in a very unnurturing place?
Art class / younger people dream.
The universe or a dream is putting in my head that we met when we were really young in an art class and didn't talk too much. I was would just see you from across the room and then we got separated and I was like oh that person was nice. I really wonder what happened to him. But we didn't meet in an art class. Maybe that's just what could have happened.
Wow! I was dozing off again.
Episode one of the Thoreau documentary has been completed, so progress is slowly unfolding.

I'm confident I will go in the direction of my dreams and watch the Thoreau documentary within ten minutes.
"Step Aside, Pops (Hark! A Vagrant, #2) by Kate Beaton"| Goodreads
I'm excited I get to watch the rest of the Thoreau documentary because I drank coffee.
I'm going to drink the not overly caffeinated coffee occasionally because my uric acid levels were higher when I took my blood tests. And my big toe hurts and that makes doing planks problematic. And when that pain first started they said it wasn't gout, but I don't believe them. They didn't measure my uric acid levels back then. I think I found a better doctor this time.
I think I'm really different from all the people who've lived and died before, but I just have little commonalities with some of them. And the universe thinks I'm supposed to pay attention to their stories for this reason. One day I'll be dead, and then whoever comes after this person I am now will be their own unique individual as well.
Theoretically...
I would do more yoga for some people. I would start figuring out how to make my muscles denser too. I would try on more fun clothes and get more into artistic activities, to accomplish my soul's mission on Earth.
Well, wherever that comes from...
"Do you think if there are any children who are being incarcerated right now who are in danger of getting eating disorders on account of being so stressed out about their experiences, that if you teach them the right mouth breathing techniques, they can get better and more secure financial situations for themselves when they get out and grow taller and older and wiser?"
I would do it again.
I wonder what it would feel like to visit this place again now that I am older.

Anyways, hmmm, fascinating.
"For every ten pounds of fat lost in our bodies, eight and a half pounds of it comes out through the lungs; most of it is carbon dioxide mixed with a bit of water vapor. The rest is sweated or urinated out. This is a fact that most doctors, nutritionists, and other medical professionals have historically gotten wrong. The lungs are the weight-regulating system of the body."

Elon sat next to me on two planes because he remembered me and was entranced by my nice treatment of his son years before at a museum and also I guess I treated him kindly enough, too. And he wanted to know if I had kids and he wanted to know if I thought he was attractive and there was a whole thing about not taking a gift from him in the gift shop back when I saw him at the La Brea Tarpits Museum, and he wasn't pleased. I wouldn't take the gift. And also in the airport he wanted to buy me something in the shop but he was a calmer person about it when I said no thanks, and he was just more chill and he put on his airpods s lot but also made conversation sometimes and he didn't seem that bad. And sometimes he seemed like he was just a kid himself. And now he's this weird phenomenon that he wasn't even like back then. And on the plane he acted almost like this kind of soft-spoken guy who grew up on a farm or something when he sat next to me and he told me about other projects. He sort of acted like he was just a car dealership owner or something. And he wanted to know if I believed in UFOs. And I feel like the blonde fairy girl on my t-shirt was an additional factor. I did not take his business card, even though at least one person who was sitting next to him told me it was a mistake that I wouldn't take it, and he wanted to talk to me more and said please wait and then I smiled at him and said I had to go. And later he dated Grimes and now he's the father of a huge amount of children by many different women. So I think there's multiple things to consider processing if you've had a certain amount of strange life experiences. And you can't just pretend you didn't have them just to make other people feel more comfortable. You're going to have to process them.
