A cab driver broke my walker today. He was being too forceful with it, ignored my plea for him to stop and that I'd get it, and broke the back rest on my walker. I'm so upset because this impacts my ability to get around and out a lot. I reported him to the cab company, and the manager said she'll have the boss call me in the morning.

This is so stressful. I'm not confident that the company will pay for repairs, and I can't afford them. I hate that this guy treated my mobility aid so carelessly

There's a woman on the bus who has the volume on her phone all the way up and she's watching a video of some lady talking to a baby and the baby is just screaming and crying.
in reply to Emily Velasco

the video could maybe be of her own child that's living outside the country and it's really meaningful for her, but she should still have some public awareness. I'm sorry you had to listen to that, I'm not saying suck it up, but making a theory like this can help rationalize it a bit more and make it less irritating at the end of the day.

Fuck. The Wayback Machine's archive of my blog is rather spottier than I'd like and my lackadaisical approach to checking that the conversion from a database backed typo site to a statically generated one has left me with far too many truncated posts. My semi-automated recovery process is at least reasonably quick, but I'm pretty damned sure I no longer have backups of the database.

Bollocks, bollocks, bollocks!

@quinn I mean… killing your darlings is one thing, but discovering that some of them died of neglect years ago is another, I fear. Nothing world shaking, but upsetting all the same.

Juicy round autumn

Juicy round autumn
burnished red and golden
mesmerizing quality of time today.
Hunger forgotten when life is a garden.
Sow and weep
while you sleep
a new day grows.
Getting our time together.
Getting in touch with weather again.
And there’s been so much to weather
again and again and again.
Sunrays are playing
warming the walkways
flashing out rainbows
in random puddles and streams.
Clear skies and starlight
awaken the night hours
expanding the time to harvest our dreams.
