Saw a Waymo on the bed of a tow truck yesterday, with its chingaderas still spinning. Made me think of an unplugged game controller in the hands of a toddler: “Yeah, you’re doing it, little fella. Look at you go.”

Sleep deprivation making for a surreal day back home after readercon. Grocery run ended with a novel temptation at the checkout stand, quickly followed by crossing paths with one of our better state representatives wearing a J Dilla t-shirt
