I’m not fond of graphs because my experience has led me to associate them with mundane math. They also make the line between math and art that much more undefined. But here are two I enjoy: What we have above is a 2D representation of the changes in head feeling that I, and I’m sure…
Sometimes I like to imagine possible future situations and decide how I would react to them. For example: 1. a doctor tells me I have cancer 2. an emergency news broadcast reports that the pandemic, 7 years behind schedule but none the weaker, has finally arrived. But not necessarily unfortunate, so these as well: 1….
I don’t like to be in situations where the actions of others are motivated entirely by what I claim to have been witness to. This has happened before. I came home to find a naked man passed out on my sister’s bed. I ran to my mom, who was working about 200 yards away, and…
Where is the ear doctor? I have questions for him: when we have a ringing in our ear, does this contribute to hearing loss? Are there sounds undetectable to the human ear which contribute to hearing loss?

There are so many different types of hot. Two girls can both be very fine and yet look nothing alike. While on the topic, I have a tentative inkling that, on average, the younger of a sister pair, trio, quartet, etc. is prettier than the older. No, not because the older might be showing signs…
When I’m walking with traffic on the sidewalk, I don’t like to see vehicles pass me and slow down soon afterward, and turn off the road onto a side street. I’m afraid they’re waiting for me to reach the turn off on foot. Then they’ll attack. I don’t like to see objects in discomfort. Here…
