He/him. Will post Frinkiac screengrabs at anyone. Played guitar (& occasionally wrote haiku) for Skyligers (in Sheffield) before emigrating, now in Germany.

Now that it's October, it's kinda nice to finally get some rain. Still too warm for a jacket though, so a raincoat has turned me into a sweaty mess. Also, when will these mosquitos die off? Everyone in the family is sick of being covered in itchy red welts.

Took the bins out. Horrified, disgusted by the neighbours' brown, composting bin that is somehow absolutely crawling with maggots. Thought they'd been sloppy throwing out rice at first, but no. That rice was wriggling around in the rain.

I thought this was just beautiful. Kurt Vonnegut takes a walk to mail a letter:
She calls out, “Where are you going?” And I say, “I am going out to get an envelope.” And she says, “Well, you’re not a poor man. Why don’t you buy a thousand envelopes? They’ll deliver them, and you can put them in a closet.” And I say, “Hush.”

I go next to the postal convenience center down the block at the corner of 47th Street and Second Avenue. The woman behind the counter says, “Thirty-nine cents for a stamp.” I say, “I only brought thirty-seven. When did that change?” She looked at me a long time. “Thirty-seven isn’t enough.” “Well that oughta be enough for one envelope,” I said. The line was getting longer. 

The lady moved her hand into her coat. I knew this routine. I backflipped behind the man behind me in line, wrapping my elbow around his throat as I landed. By the time the stamp seller had unloaded her clip, I had full cover. The gentleman’s body dropped to the floor, six holes smoking. The package he was carrying fell to the floor with a heavy clunk. Whatever was in there, it would do. 

I rolled my foot over the cardboard and did a “flick up” as they call it in soccer. I bounced the package once or twice on the back of my foot as the mail lady reloaded, then I launched it high and spun 360 to deliver my patented “Rising Phoenix kick”. The package caught fire as it shattered through the protective plexiglass window and struck the woman’s head with all the force and hatred I had learned to channel in my grueling tutelage under five fallen Wudang masters in my youth. The lady’s body exploded off of her bones, leaving just a blackened skeleton spinning in her office chair. “So it goes,” I said, but no one laughed. I guess they weren’t big readers.

And I go home. And I have had one hell of a good time.

We are dancing animals. How beautiful it is to get up and go out and do something. We are here on Earth to fart around. Don’t let anybody tell you any different.

My knowledge of African geography and history is, frankly, laughable. TIL that Swaziland (*not* a theme park, despite sounding to my uncultured ear like a cool theme park name) hasn't been called that for the better part of a decade. Also Eswatini has an absolutely bitchin' flag:
The flag of Eswatini (designed by King Sobhuza II) features a black and white shield, called the Nguni shield, with a staff and two spears, on a field of blue, yellow, and red horizontal bands.

Yesterday, my little 'un asked to listen to Skyligers in the car. Once the EPs finished and it started playing the old, instrumental FAWM stuff she insisted we go back to the beginning again. She also said that she thinks she wants to be a singer because I was in a band. 😍

The gym has a sauna - which is nice - but every time I use it I have intrusive thoughts that, when I go to leave, I'll pass out and fall onto the heater, badly burning myself. Today, I actually got a little lightheaded (overdone the workout?) and became quite anxious about it.
