you gotta get yourself a cheap plair--
you gotta get yourself a cheap pair of plastic sunglasses
or a really cheap pair of plastic wraparounds
you can get em just down the street
it's four bucks for the pair
you should stock up
you should buy three or four pairs
really, no one ever fucks with you
you put em on
and no one fucks with you
and they're cheap
it's better than--
better than a wig
or a really stupid haircut
or a nose ring

you get afraid on the bus?
when you ever get--
you ever get scared on the bus?
or the subway?
you ever get afraid, and--

we were all really high
and I was sitting on the couch
we were all sitting on the couch
we were all really high
the TV was on and no one was talking and no one was saying a word
and no one had said a word for a long, long time
everyone was just staring at the TV set
and I got the fear
I got the fear really bad
I remember thinking, this is it, I'm going to die

Just switching to <= would make it express 365d as 12m rather than 1y. 2022-09-30Update "Care" with more on electrolysisJune McEnroe Also dunno why I was being coy about piercings this is my own blog and I talk about them all the damn time everywhere else. 2022-09-30Add alphabet ranking pageJune McEnroe Did I need to spend even the small amount of time I spent on this? No. 2022-09-26Set wallpaper to a random colour escher knotJune McEnroe 2022-09-21Add Take Me ThereJune McEnroe Best collection of short stories I've read by far. Good variety, most are quite short, and there are no bummers. The writing is also better than usual which is doubly surprising for erotic fiction, I think. Anyway the stories are super fun. 2022-09-19Add when - to print all named datesJune McEnroe 2022-09-19Publish ApologiesJune McEnroe 2022-09-19Do more "email" filteringJune McEnroe 2022-09-18Add gdbinit, hushlogin, inputrcJune McEnroe :) 2022-09-18Remove some filesJune McEnroe 2022-09-18Remove doc/pdfJune McEnroe Linkrot. 2022-09-11Reread A Closed and Common OrbitJune McEnroe Book make me cry like a little baby. All time favourite. 2022-09-09Add I've Got a Time BombJune McEnroe What a relief after 3 unbearably straight and awful books in a row. A wonderful mess. 2022-09-02Update "Care" with initial electrolysis reportJune McEnroe 2022-08-17Add The Book of Form and EmptinessJune McEnroe There are some nice things in here that I would really like in any other book, but not this one. 2022-08-15Load dates from ~/.config/when/datesJune McEnroe 2022-08-15Allow names with prefixes of months and daysJune McEnroe 2022-08-15Add named dates to whenJune McEnroe 2022-08-14Remove tweets text fileJune McEnroe Such link rot. 2022-08-04Add Conversations With FriendsJune McEnroe The better of the two, but largely the same. I feel like these books are a bit too autobiographical, but I don't know if I'm allowed to accuse an author of that. My real problem is that I read these books as largely uncritical of their characters. They behave in nonsense ways, are mostly uncritical of their own behaviour, and don't really have arcs of growth or change. I suppose this book had a bit of one, but only in the last two chapters. 2022-07-30Add Normal PeopleJune McEnroe Unbearably straight. Eyerolls and sighs per page off the charts. Shout out to Joanna, I guess. I kinda like the lack of quotation marks though to be honest. After half of the Ruth Ozeki novel and now this, I need to get back to some genre fiction. 2022-07-26Rewrite glitch from new pngoJune McEnroe 2022-07-26Update Care with time-to-ID and piercingsJune McEnroe 2022-07-26Add -w to upJune McEnroe 2022-07-13Set push.autoSetupRemoteJune McEnroe 2022-07-08Remove TOURJune McEnroe There is not that much distinct stuff here anymore. 2022-07-03Add The Bone Shard EmperorJune McEnroe Suffers a little bit from middle book but I really enjoyed it. Read it faster than the first one too, despite its length. 2022-06-25Bump xterm font size to 12June McEnroe 2022-06-10Handle subshells (and functions) inside substitutionsJune McEnroe 2022-06-10Switch to jorts Install scriptJune McEnroe 2022-06-08Indicate if still reading or no resultsJune McEnroe 2022-06-08Add Maiden, Mother, CroneJune McEnroe Mixed bag like most collections of short stories. Some of them are pretty good. The author of the worst written story also has the worst written bio. 2022-06-05FIRST SHOW IN 2.5 YEARS BABEY!!!June McEnroe 2022-06-03Set line number on File linesJune McEnroe 2022-06-03Stop polling stdin after EOFJune McEnroe 2022-06-02Set TABSIZE=4June McEnroe Absolutely indiscriminately. 2022-06-02Do basic match highlightingJune McEnroe 2022-06-02Clean up parsing a littleJune McEnroe 2022-06-02Don't duplicate path stringJune McEnroe 2022-06-02Use stderr instead of /dev/tty, realloc buffer if lines too longJune McEnroe For some reason I haven't been able to figure out, trying to poll /dev/tty returns POLLNVAL (and this was using 100% CPU looping), but using stderr instead works fine. 2022-06-02Add initial working version of qfJune McEnroe 2022-05-29Set prompt for okshJune McEnroe
