I've added a new entry to my blog, "Toe in the Water" :
         "I Know Jack" 

A weird coincidence.
I've added a new entry to my blog, "Toe in the Water" :
         "Short Stories" 

How can short stories have a long writer's block?
I've added a new entry to my blog, "Toe in the Water" :
         "Whistle" 

My thought for the day.
I've added a new entry to my blog, "Toe in the Water" :
         "What Are You Advertising?" 

Another crackpot theory!
It's a shame that people can seem to no longer agree to disagree. It seems to be either "I'm right" and "You're wrong". Polite debate has gone out the window. Everyone seems to be afraid of being "canceled", if that is still a thing *Think*
I've added a new entry to my blog, "Toe in the Water" :
         "Cult Classics" 

Somehow I have to stop hoping for another episode. Maybe I should write the next one. Then at least I'll be the one who knows how it ends.
 nordicnoir
That's the basis of Fan Fiction, which has a following of its own. I say do it. Might be interesting to see how similar or different your ideas are from the writers of the show.
nordicnoir - Whoa, I wasn't really serious when I suggested writing it myself. I meant that I might have to write the next cult classic myself - and that's easier said than done. For the moment, I think I'll just stand on the sidelines and complain.
I've added a new entry to my blog, "Toe in the Water" :
         "An Amy Clone" 

Ah YouTube.
I've added a new entry to my blog, "Toe in the Water" :
         "A Distressing Tale" 

Mind - how you go.
I've added a new entry to my blog, "Toe in the Water" :
         "DNA" 

All thanks to watching too much YouTube.
schnujo - But who did the research? You're so right. One must double, triple check. The lies, to me, are not only fairly easy to spot, it's usually the same old dance their bosses tell them to.

Scott Jennings is the only sane voice at CNN. Proud to be MAGA. God, then country and family. BE BOLD. BE BRAVE. I pray, for our revitalized military is deploying at this moment and for our dysfunctional Congress to wake up and eliminate what has been a thorn in our side since forever and do the right thing. Believe me, without total obliteration, the crazies will be back. With a nuke. Also, pray for the Iranian people who used to be fairly free. The revolt is coming!
schnujo - Cable gives you access to a plethera of news options. Unfortunately, our country gets dumber every day. Youtube, Snapchat, Tik tok. Bad news. I know it's not easy, but the founding fathers knew this was coming.

Though I do use Youtube for instructional videos.
Actually, I wasn't talking about politics (far be that from me!). The articles that became too much were all allegedly scientific ones with click bait headlines.
I've added a new entry to my blog, "Toe in the Water" :
         "Brevity" 

A short one, in other words.
I've added a new entry to my blog, "Toe in the Water" :
         "Severance" 

Another day, another blog post.
Apple TV has some good shows. I got started on Severance and fizzled out a few episodes in, but I thought it was great. I think what kept me from watching it more came down to my mood at the time more than anything. I'll have to give it a shot in hopes that it continues to be a quality show
I've added a new entry to my blog, "Toe in the Water" :
         "Advice on Advice" 

Yakkety yak.
brennus - The really sad thing is that I am old enough to remember that song.
A little advice goes a long way; after that, it's just suggestive.
I've added a new entry to my blog, "Toe in the Water" :
         "Usable Intelligence" 

Never mind the physique, feel the brain.
Here's an interesting article:

Octopuses Keep Surprising  
{/}thank you
I've added a new entry to my blog, "Toe in the Water" :
         "Artificial Insufficiency" 

One day we'll collect old videos of real life in the same way people collect vinyl records now.
Someday? *Rolleyes*
(This might mean I'm finally ahead of my time?) a
bookmeister - It could happen!
I've been fooled by AI before. Some of it is pretty obvious, but it's getting really good
I've added a new entry to my blog, "Toe in the Water" :
         "Little Brown Jugger" 

The first unbidden poem for ages. And fun with rhyming!
