Fuck that fucking rodent.

This is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm. The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him. Happy Black History Month.

love when there’s a newspaper profile of some psychopath that points out they allow themselves “a lone vice, like a single cup of black coffee in the morning.” personally I am a bundle of trash glued together by vices. they’re all load-bearing

Pecan pie. I just don’t get the appeal.

Alternatively, drop the nicotine and add a 102° fever and consuming nothing but orange juice and York peppermint patties.

“Light breeze” meaning a wind chill of -3F. 😭🥶

This morning there’s snow everywhere. —— As if we knew what the other was feeling. We don’t, of course. We never do. No matter. It’s the tenderness I care about. -Raymond Carver, from "The Gift" #everynightapoem #thismorning

Central Park's Reservoir is iced over except for a small area of open water by the Fountain, where geese, ducks, and gulls gather.

This does not inspire me to leave my comfy couch and run errands.

Just a little scrabbledy sketch to keep spirits up. I also learned today that a group of chickadees is called a ‘banditry’ and how cute is that?

Friday's Weather Rating: 1/10 I've got nothing. It's horribly cold, with wind chill values below zero and high temperatures barely reaching the teens this afternoon. The sun is not helping much. The vibes have completely frozen over!!

my only notes to people under 30: your 30s aren't for ditching fandom, they're for re-evaluating all the "cringe" stuff you liked as a teenager through the lens of someone who can appreciate it fully, going, "that owned, actually," and becoming even more unhinged about it. please look forward to it.

Caretaker! take care, for we run in straits. Daily, by night, we walk naked to storm, some threat of wholesale loss, to ruinous fear. Gift us with long cloaks & adrenalin. — John Berryman, from “Eleven Addresses to the Lord” (www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/48948/...)

All this impending snow. Reminds me that now we enter into the 24th of 24 micro-seasons: “Greater Cold” #大寒 - the coldest period of the year. Yet also, a period anticipating the beginning of spring and the warmth of the coming lunar new year. [Kawase Hasui, Evening Snow at Terashima Village, 1920]
