Monthly Archives: January 2013. What Was I Doing Again? January 18, 2013. It’s been difficult to write blog posts lately. I start writing them in my head, sit down at the computer, click my word processor button, and while I’m waiting for my computer to boot the program (a whole second), I boot another program. While it’s booting I’ll have time to check everything on the internet right? I really should read all of those blogs I follow, and, hey, there’s a link, that. I still have fifteen tabs open? I’d b...

It’s That Time! What Was I Doing Again? At Least I Like Green. January 17, 2013. Also, I don’t seem to have a decent camera on hand. I’m not really sure how that happened, especially in this digital day and age, but that appears to be how it is for now. I did it all for you! We’re a long way from the end product, though, so feel free to add any input or advice you may have in the comment sections as I fiddle around with my blog theme. This entry was tagged blog design. It’s That Time! Looks great and lov...

Just Swallow Already →. Camels, Kitchens, and Executions. July 19, 2012. In most of the pictures I’ve seen, the camels look like they’re smiling. There, I’ve fulfilled his wishes, I think. Thanks, Imre Solt. Sometimes the fact that I seem to have a passion for characters that live through disturbing circumstances leads me to grisly places. Lately it’s taken the form of reading books like Public Executions. Do they have slitted eyes and how do their pupils respond to the light? I know I can’t afford to pu...

Choice | twistingthreads

https://twistingthreads.wordpress.com/2012/07/05/choice

July 5, 2012. Ambivalence, that overworked device. Springs and cogs, stressed and wrought, imprecise. Mounting pressure as grit clogs the gears. Choices grind against the thrall of massing fears. Armies marching toward the eve of dread war,. Clashing on bloody field reap injuries sore. Still specters rise among the dead, seek hallowed light:. A haunted mind, besieged, knowing not rest or flight. Perhaps if this barren land were just a dream. I could rip out the thread that binds the seam,. My new interne...

https://twistingthreads.wordpress.com/2012/08/24/getting-into-a-kitchen-is-easy-its-the-getting-out-thats-hard

It’s That Time! Getting Into a Kitchen is Easy, It’s the Getting Out That’s Hard. August 24, 2012. It was 7:30 AM when I got the phone call. I was barely conscious, having laid down a few scant minutes before. I’d stayed up all night watching television with one of my roommates and then, long after the light seeped through the blinds, communing with Safran, who had first appeared to me a couple of weeks before. I was completely obsessed with her already. I think this is a bad idea,. I told Safran,. Maybe...

Home Sweet Park | twistingthreads

June 17, 2012. When I was seven, and the boxes were piling up in the house, and the movers came to load them up and take them away, my mother told me I would love my new home because it was right next to a. Swings, and slides, and teeter-totters…oh, my! Most people call them buffalo, my glowing mother informed me, but they’re actually not buffalo at all; they’re bison. It has poop in its hair, Mom, I said, See there’s one rolling around in some now. Close the door. What if it gets mad? The air, even insi...

A Perspective on Feral Children | twistingthreads

Everyone Else is Doing It… →. A Perspective on Feral Children. December 30, 2011. Contempt prior to investigation is what enslaves a mind to Ignorance. Few people are capable of expressing with equanimity opinions which differ from the prejudices of their social environment. Most people are even incapable of forming such opinions. Everyone is a genius. But if you judge a fish on its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid. Aren’t we doing them a favor? The depicti...
