  • Back then (I worked there briefly back then) you still understood that if you dwelt on the texture or taste too long, it’d start to ruin the whole thing, so you mentally checked out while you ate it. The pickles helped, they would load it with dill pickles. Last time I had one it was so plain, the yoga mat/foam extruded texture was on full display, I threw it away after a few bites.

    Finally I stopped eating McD’s entirely, I’m not going to pay through the nose for food that’s killing me anyway. Once a month the fry craving hits and I just ride it out, it passes fast. I’m not kidding. I’m in recovery from meth and alcohol, and these hyper-processed food cravings hit the same way drug cravings do.




  • I finally got an air fryer just to see what all the hype was about, and although it does a nice job on some things, it’s not really any faster and it makes the whole house reek because it’s blowing air continuously, which I should have expected, but eww. Plus I can make way more fries on a baking sheet. I don’t really get it.





  • Doing my morning walk through the churches in my neighborhood and there’s two old churches side by side, both rocking out, one sort of blues riffs, one a little more traditional rock. And as I often do, I stood for a moment taking it in - this is the Southern culture I think is fascinating and rich and… then I realize the blues one is now just doing a call and refrain “I don’t need no - evidence” over and over, and my dog’s like “let’s get the fuck out of here” and so we did.

    But it’s cute for a second if you don’t try to focus in on it. This is how religion should be taken in, and then hustle your ass along.
