. . . to write on the following topics:
- New York vs California
- nostalgia and memory
- understanding and critique
- bias and understanding (epistemology, ontology, and hermeneutics)
- something about my deranged cat
- anything other than Lower Manhattan development or abortion
I want to be thoughtful and honest and maybe a little funny and not caught up in every last fucking idiocy which streams across my computer—but, alas, I fail.
Breathe, ab, breathe.

It’s the humidity. It’s too sticky to think words like “epistemology, ontology, and hermeneutics.”
Or the stupidity.
I think what’s needed is LOLcats-ish graphic with a Muslim (kitty?) sitting on a copy of the Constitution: I’m in ur country, using up ur freedoms.
or the desire that things/people would be other than what they are, beware the pull of the fly-jar, i get caught up in it everyday but i’m slowly learning to save my soul/energy, as you say add to the uncertainty which might mean loosening yer grip
I hope you, as a New Yorker, haven’t been offended by this Californian… 🙂
