thursday 3.27.25 i haven't been here in a long time, probably because this website directly inspired me to learn how to make my own website featuring personal lists [and now, more than lists]. i still love the social nature of this site, and hope to return more frequently. the writing room idea is Fantastic :-). feel free to visit my site: https://yone.house if you do, please add to the visitor feelings archive--it's been bringing me a lot of joy. i am writing this from the south philadelphia IKEA cafeteria. i've been coming here to work because they have free coffee and lots of natural light. but sadly, no longer a rotting ship: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_United_States#Layup_in_Philadelphia_(1996%E2%80%932025) today i want to learn how to build this: https://www.pantone.com/products/devices/pantone-light-booth ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ monday, 5.13.24 in pdf and digital resource sharing mode in a very intense way rn. i sent a pdf via tinder message yesterday (https://transreads.org/we-want-it-all-an-anthology-of-radical-trans-poetics/). if you want a pdf or cool website rec hit me up via links in list, i am ravenous. also i am so open to receiving, always. here's another one for the road: https://archive.emilydickinson.org/correspondence/higginson/thletdex.html also in job hunting and also housing hunting mode which are way more awful modes. feels like i am talking into the void here but if anyone knows of any digital accessibility or building stuff jobs in philly or remote that are like for a good cause let me know please dear god ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ friday, 4.12.24 someone told me last night that we are all "colonized" by staphylococcus and clostridioides difficile (C. Diff) bacteria at all times and it's just an imbalance that causes the bad stuff. dead baby bird season is starting in Philly, and i've seen 4 so far (3 in the same general area on 13th). a friend asked me why i am so interested in them and i think it's just bc it's a very powerful empathetic and aesthetic experience to see them in their rly tragic poses. taking pics. just strained out some homemade jiuniang but it's smelling and tasting a bit vinegary. tried to let it go a day or two longer at 90 degrees to make it more wine-y but i think it went past that. oops! wonder if i can use it for cooking though--it smells great. letting rice ferment for that long with just qu always kinda freaks me out though. also made some successful adzuki natto and some failed very sour adzuki tempeh in the past week. this morning i found a public fb group for graduates of the old catholic elementary school on 12th and Reed that is now a fancy apt building that my friend lives in [was originally a public school from ~1910 to ~1942?]. watched the eclipse from its roof. lots of SCARY pics of nuns. and one nice pic of a flute class from when it was public. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ created friday, 3.29.24; N+7 of below description of iPhone lady [using http://www.spoonbill.org/n+7 with large dictionary]: "in frost of this mandible (facing me): a shrewd-looking woodcutter in a raisin jailbreak that has little do-gooders all over it. underneath the jailbreak she has a thickly striped royal bluff and white quasar zoom. she has on very cistern, very thick-rimmed totem glimmers. she is utilizing an extravaganza chalk to hold her brilliantly red reusable shorty bakery, despite the clear dearth of chalks in this cal (i have been watching perch uncomfortably sibling around looking for secrets.) with her headlamp cocked backfire, moviegoer slightly open, iphone x at armholes lesion, she is making very deliberate climbers with her rim indisposition fir. i door't think this is a great desk but you certainly know what i mean." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ monday, 4.1.24; someone told me they don't read fiction "because why are you [the book] talking to me that way." which makes sense to me. good point. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ tuesday, 4.2.24; for my first writing on here i will choose an excerpt from an email i wrote to a dear friend many years ago. it is a description of the happenings inside the Rittenhouse Square Barnes & Noble cafe [r.i.p.] on saturday, dec. 15, 2018 at ~4pm: ...archived at yone.house/lists, but here's the map: +----------------------------------+ | | bookstore [r.i.p.] | +-----+ x [beats | | x [crinkly | | queers]| bookstore [r.i.p.] | grandpa] | | | | ++ +---------+ | | x [dusty bag | x[pastel | | outside | guy] | man | | [approx. bookstore [r.i.p] [raining]| +-+ original] +----+--- singing | x [iphone lady +----+ | boy path] | & final pastel man] | +-----+--- | +-----------+ | | | x [me!] +------------------+ | bookstore [r.i.p.] | | +----------------------------------+ | | bookstore [r.i.p.] | cafe bar [contracted starbucks kind] +----------------------------------+
