so this is just google ai search results are annoying and unhelpful volume 2,848,013, but i love the implication of day-long twilight. like the sun rises, then hides just under the horizon for twelve hours, then i guess pokes back up for three minutes and immediately sets again? good. relatable

every day someone on earth invents something. a strange little delight, an open-handed gift born of their spontaneity. but there are always detractors (just saw a guy at the laundromat getting yelled at by the owner for washing his clothes for free in the sink there)

wild to me that we pay landlords like $25k, $30k a year and they'll still be like "no overnight guests. only one pet. don't go on the roof". for that much money they should be like "we will give you an extra cat if you want one. you get to punch me once whenever you want. i will do your laundry"

weird thing about competitive pinball is the rules you need to learn for as many games as possible and there's like 5000. fave example is NBA Fastbreak quiz minigame, for which I have permanently memorized a bunch of trivia about the 94–95 NBA season. i don't even like basketball

bataille has this one essay i haven't read in a few years where he talks about halos, & it's like, perfect beings are portrayed with halos; if you remove the halo are they less perfect?, and the answer is no, the halo is like a vibration around the edges of perfection, it's surplus, it's excess,

Remember in the early days of the internet how it screamed every time we logged on? We should have paid attention to that.

i worked with journalists for eight whole years and only now have thought to ask: what's the point of pull quotes, exactly? did journalists see how filmmakers have trailers to spoil their work and get jealous?

so many of the big advancements in css over the last decade or so have been about writing fewer lines to get more complex layouts made in less time but i am not a factory and my heart does not yearn to make responsive forms 5% faster than before. i want an imperfect hand sewn web aesthetic

somehow missed that you can colorize carets in css with the `caret-color` property. also just learned that you can animate that property. i hereby promise to do horrible things with this knowledge

looking for a word. "left" and "right"'s version is "sidedness" or "directionality" — is there one specific to for interior / exterior / anterior / etc.? i've been stumped for weeks and am close to cold-emailing some mathematicians about it

have seen like twenty variations on "some of you keep on telling me, Jon, of Jon's Surprisingly Popular Small Hats On Large Dogs Channel, to stop talking about Musk and Trump and the coup. just get back to small hats on large dogs, you say. you know what? fuck all of you to hell" & i kinda love it

diagramming out some long stitch bookbinding patterns. it's a fun sort of open ended spatial puzzle to solve b/c of the restrictions — uninterrupted line going in and out of a book spine, no x axis movement for thread inside the book (the dashed lines), making it vertically tileable, etc etc
