It all cycles within. Your thoughts, behaviors, consequences… Your values will be reflected in your cycles of care.

“It’s all for you.” Now, whether you choose to hear Janet Jackson singing that to you or a demonic child’s caretaker screaming it before misfortune strikes is your choice. Always.

That Vaudeville artist was amazing back in the day. Wait, who was she again? That’s why David Bowie said “never play to the gallery”. That applies across the board.

Cubby just bro’d me. She reached up to pull the back of my bra strap and walked off. Just be doing anything these days. Curiosity’s little helper.

The Audacity Deck says: stop being milked. Focus on yourself.

I like carving out little corners of the universe that become sacred spaces for only me to explore. Even if it’s a very public space, no two people experience it the same way.

I told one of my fellow studio tech trainees about the dream my sleep paralysis demon gave me the other night. She said it sounded like a really chaotic dream. For a moment I forgot what chaos meant. What truly is chaos these days?

Stay away from wings that smell like ass. They are overcooked.

So many wings have been flying around my mind lately.
I need a hot wings list. Juicy. A little dry heat with a hint of sweet that makes you just keep eating. Then you dip your celery into its Ranch or Bleu cheese bath (I don’t judge) before you eat that one sliver of carrot they gave you because they know you didn’t eat anything else that day. Because you were waiting to eat this tray of wings out of this styrofoam container. Right here in this bar. Damn. It’s :::looks off into the distance:::


$10, $12, who cares? Do you want some wings or not? I know you’re still on the clock but-

YOU DONT EAT WINGS LIKE THAT?!!

Damn I just had the wildest sensory recall of some of the best peach cobbler I ever tasted at this jazz club in Detroit. What a night. I ate the whole thing while eyeing the barrrrtender. 🤣 Hope he still makes the wings HOT. 🥵

Oh, and Broadcast #2 is an experiment with change. I'm grateful for it because as I was working through a creative block, I was able to parse out a starting point for Broadcast #3. So, now I've got another rabbit hole to follow.

This one was much harder to cut but I learned a lot along the way about my need to organize my clips better. I'd like to eventually put them in some database or link them. That means I need to not rush. Where am I going anyway?

I don't know if these AI companies now sounding the alarm that their technology poses an "existential risk" is supposed to be a red flag or a turn-on at this point. Who's losing money?
