Was the waiter like "mamma mia!!!"

Did the waiter also look like someone who’d befriend a mushroom?

I can just smell the racism

[tragabigzanda]

There is a wolf in me . . . fangs pointed for tearing gashes . . . a red tongue for raw meat . . . and the hot lapping of blood—I keep this wolf because the wilderness gave it to me and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fox in me . . . a silver-gray fox . . . I sniff and guess . . . I pick things out of the wind and air . . . I nose in the dark night and take sleepers and eat them and hide the feathers . . . I circle and loop and double-cross.

There is a hog in me . . . a snout and a belly . . . a machinery for eating and grunting . . . a machinery for sleeping satisfied in the sun—I got this too from the wilderness and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fish in me . . . I know I came from salt-blue water-gates . . . I scurried with shoals of herring . . . I blew waterspouts with porpoises . . . before land was . . . before the water went down . . . before Noah . . . before the first chapter of Genesis.

There is a baboon in me . . . clambering-clawed . . . dog-faced . . . yawping a galoot's hunger . . . hairy under the armpits . . . here are the hawk-eyed hankering men . . . here are the blonde and blue-eyed women . . . here they hide curled asleep waiting . . . ready to snarl and kill . . . ready to sing and give milk . . . waiting—I keep the baboon because the wilderness says so.

There is an eagle in me and a mockingbird . . . and the eagle flies among the Rocky Mountains of my dreams and fights among the Sierra crags of what I want . . . and the mockingbird warbles in the early forenoon before the dew is gone, warbles in the underbrush of my Chattanoogas of hope, gushes over the blue Ozark foothills of my wishes—And I got the eagle and the mockingbird from the wilderness.

O, I got a zoo, I got a menagerie, inside my ribs, under my bony head, under my red-valve heart—and I got something else: it is a man-child heart, a woman-child heart: it is a father and mother and lover: it came from God-Knows-Where: it is going to God-Knows-Where—For I am the keeper of the zoo: I say yes and no: I sing and kill and work: I am a pal of the world: I came from the wilderness.

Spike, how are you with driving on the wrong side of the car/road?

i'm not bad, been doing it the last couple visits. it'll probably feel normal in a few weeks after driving the kid to school and back each day.
Good luck. It’s a huge fear of mine whenever we go to the UK. I just avoid it and take trains or cabs
i also need to start deleting chicago street knowledge and begin uploading melbourne street knowledge. we're only designed to know our way around one city.

i'll be driving into downtown melbourne today, not worried about. can hopefully avoid any hook turns.

Did you bring the Tesla with you?

Because driving from the right side of a car would mess me up.

[E.H. Ruddock]

Oh yeah did u sell the tesla

[LoathedVermin72]

Today I discovered that Nike sneakers fit me if I size up to a 14. I always thought they didn’t fit me because they were too narrow (I usually wear 13 wide). Now I’m worried I’m gonna buy too many Nikes (I already bought two pairs today)

[bodysnatcher]

[bart]

I went from not being a Nike guy to buying four of them in a six month stretch.

[bodysnatcher]

That seems extravagant

[LoathedVermin72]

It would not surprise me at all if I buy at least that many in the next few months. I like nice shoes and streetwear fashion in general

[bodysnatcher]

Shoes are good to have

[bart]

I get two pairs of each kind of shoe - I’ve got the terminators in gray/black and hi top dunks in green and white. So really only two purchases in that period

[bodysnatcher]

Why do you get two? (Genuinely curious)

[LoathedVermin72]

Ah nice, pretty cool retro look on these two

I went for these two today:

No had to sell the cars cuz steering wheel’s on the wrong side. Also the Tesla plug is different here. We have a new Tesla coming in a few weeks hopefully.
