 I configured my portable touch-screen device to hide the clock.
 
 I don't need to know the time, why would I bother? [distract from more
 important things to think about.]

 I exist now at the height of my gluttony.
 
 I need more to be demanded of me.
 
 I am not afraid to ask for help.
 
 I solve other people's problems before my own.
 
 I have very little insight into my habits and patterns.
 
 My memory isn't great, but I recall details that matter.

 Wow, that's a cool book! I'll look for it next time I'm at the store ^_^ 
 
 Can you imagine how it must have seemed, to the average person who would hear
 of such a scene? The idea that someone would ride a boat across an OCEAN
 and... what, drop a cable into it's depths, so they could send electricity
 across the breadth of the world? What even is a cable, honestly, is that just
 like... A rope made of metal? How strange! How wild! We live in the future
 (says someone in the 1800s) anyway I'm sure glad we have bread

 okay, uhm, I'm back again because someone told me to forward this to relevant

Finally, trying to pivot towards Pacific northwestern native perennial plants (and self-seeding annuals) for food, medicine, and material; they're much more adapted to this region as far as sunlight, moisture, bungalow, microbial, avian, insect partner, and soil types are concerned, and that's not only take less work now to instigate and tend, but are much more equipped to handle the fungal infections, droughts, genetic biodiversity collapses, and fluctuating climates that are inbound.  the BRIT ethnobotany database is helpful in that regard, and given that it's based out of Texas and has gynecological herbs, it would be a really good idea for some of the tech queers in our community to duplicate a redundancy of it.
