i'm near done with earthlings. it's about how some feel like aliens on earth because earthlings are strange creatures, the product, receptacle, consumer and servant of the earth factory society. i started it after the post about leaving earth anticipating the book. also i read about long covid and i think life for some is like an influenza which is undiagnosed and we're left to self-diagnosis and the ongoing process of noticing and illuminating endemic symptoms we have to adapt to and live with. one strange thing is i wake up with my left hand stiff like with a touch of rigor mortis. it feels like we have to survive but that just means to finally live.

post dat. my horoscope says you may (it always says you may) realize for the very first time how lucky you are. —like a revelation. i have before, so i today if it occurs to me won't be the very first time, but it could feel that way i suppose. anyway wouldn't it be a good way to start the day, to feel lucky every day, even on this plagued earth? 

post dat 2. appreciate the small stuff.
