I don’t have anything to deceive you on. Of course I’m not deceiving you.

Art director: Got that picnic table shoot done, real heavy on the crustaceans like you asked. Account executive: What?

A picture of a circular picnic table that has holders for drinks and has two large bins full of crustaceans: shrimp and crabs. Two paper towel rolls are mounted in the center and a large plastic trash can is beneath the open center of the table.

My current tulip holdings are in the single digits, but that includes this sultry and sophisticated number that insisted with a groan that I shoot it in the shade. It preferred I return at night, “When the veil is thinner.” #gothtulips

You're trapped in the last TV show you watched. Where are you?

An old sign missing the name of the abandoned business, with only phone number on the signboard, stands next to an empty lot and a field of brown grasses.

Yes, one of these shelves was installed incorrectly. I’m leaving it as an Ozymandias-style warning about hubris.

If you start watching this now, at midnight - or anytime you finish - you’ll have taken in one of the best movies of all time. If that’s not enough, it might just prepare you for a great year of being yourself.

Inside text: “An abundance of thanks to you.” I sincerely hope the designer of this was inspired by Severance. Or that it was the other way around.

Haven’t read this for a long time. It’s amazing how much I remember of Pynchon's cutting observations and endlessly lyrical humor. His sardonic, head-spinning, bawdy tales are as American as it gets.

Laughed out loud at the terse phrases used to tease and intrigue, deployed as quick asides from a supposedly superior mind that Knows. A mind that is deigning to inform the hoi polloi of the Future. Exactly like Chief Executive Dumbass' Apprentice on Twitter.

My first pass at parsing this was: - questions dog = dog that is a press secretary - is Trump's pick for adviser - but the dog has an inconsistent resume - ergo: yet another terrible choice - still, cool that a dog even got that job - hooray English

Prediction: decisive Harris victory (larger than Biden's) and the second repudiation of a vulgar personality and politics. Things won't be perfect, but they'll get better. And a woman shall lead!
