… It’s The Grim Reaper!!! (fight ensues)
On my recent posting about adhesives, deep state covert operative flex commented, kindly. [stderr] And it reminded me of an actual thing that happened.
I’ve gotten familiar with the gestation time for a variety of seeds, and can practically set my clock by genovese basil.
A meme-god friend of mine sent me this:
This is not a great revelation for anyone, but making things, to say nothing of growing things, is an act of believing in a better future. In this case, it’s a better future, by definition, since it includes cilantro and holy basil.
I think this one is actually pretty good.

A few years ago, I played an audiobook version of LeGuin’s The Wave of The Mind [wc] – basically, short essays on writing and thinking about writing – and, as usual, I was impressed by her clarity and thoughtfulness. She ranges widely, including a fascinating meta-analysis of gender in book awards (depressing!) and a piece on genetic determinism.
I got a request for a “ghetto shiv” and, naturally, it had to happen.
As you possibly recall, I suck at writing fiction. So I enlisted the help of ChatGPT.
