Quick Thoughts At Work On School Rumble

 Remember School Rumble? That comedy comic and TV show about unrequited love from the early 00s? I never found it very funny. Not even on a rewatch a while back. Was it 2019? 2020? Time is an illusion anyway.

早く俳句

Night returns, no calm.

Raindrop percussion tonight.

Tempo for writing.

 

No pen, quill or ink.

Fingers hammer cheap plastic

Lightning fuels the screen.

Weariness muffles the words

Maintain the schedule

 

Time washes away

Mountains of dreams, ideas, hope.

Another dud post.

I Bought A Bamboo Toothbrush On The Way To Work This Morning

 I'm not an expert in ecologically sound policy. Hell, I'm barely a linguist, media analyst or philosopher and I've actually studied those topics. It still seems like a sound argument to me that we need to use bamboo in more material goods. It's sturdy, grows fast and makes a cool "donk" sound if you run water through until the log drops.

I needed a new toothbrush for use after rushed breakfasts on the way to work and one made of bamboo was the cheapest option at the supermarket. This is a noble individual purchase which will surely reverse climate change.

Let's talk about the mouthfeel.

Blaugust 2021 Day One: Six Fanagraphs

 On an artist's quiet day on social media they might whip out one of these templates for inspiration.

My original plan for today's post is going up tomorrow so I just asked from friends to give me names for me to create word paintings with! Here's a previous example:

Images loaded with text and wonky Google blog sites don't go well together so I'll just write regular paragraphs this time.
