Meh
As the title may suggest, yesterday was a “meh” sort of day. Nothing really happened. The news today is that there was no news yesterday. I am reminded of an old cartoon from the 70s - I think it was called Noah and Nelly. It was one of those five-minuters that would get put on just before the news at 17:45, and I remember the subject of one episode: “Today there is no news.” All aboard the Skylark!
Anyway, enough reminiscing. It doesn’t change the fact that there’s not that much to talk about. The countdown continues, the wars rage on, the politicians lie, and the media conforms.
The House of Stark
On the repair front, the starkness of reality hasn’t been more...well stark really, but I guess that’s the nature of where I’m at for the moment. Don’t get me wrong - I’m okay and there’s nothing “up.” In fact, that’s the point: there’s nothing...full stop.
Irritability might be worth mentioning, but again, that’s not news either. The only difference is that I can no longer bury it underneath substances. I have to face it. I have to face everything from now on: the good, the bad, the indifferent and the bloody annoying.
I’d pay good money to see that Western.
Food, Glorious Food
Oh, actually, we may have uncovered a bit of recovery gold. I will be able to confirm in tomorrow’s Dispatch, but we think we might have found a tool to help with morning fog and sludge. Basically, it involves high-fat/salt food and electrolytes before bedtime. It might not be ideal for everyone, but I’ll fill you all in on the details tomorrow if the experiment is successful.
The Upside Down is Down and Out
I’m afraid after a third run-through of Stranger Things, I have exhausted all possible avenues for analysis, so I’m trying to find something else I can get my teeth into. I hate this bit because it will take me ages before I find anything.
There does seem to be an awful lot of new Dracula/Vampire stuff available. I enjoyed Abigail; it was a bit different. Although I did figure it out long before the end, it’s still worth a watch - particularly the psychically controlled ballet scene. There’s a sentence I never thought I’d see myself typing. The Last Voyage of the Demeter, on the other hand, is best avoided. I’ve also started watching Dracula (2025) on Prime - only because Christoph Waltz is in it. And yes, I know it’s only two hours long, but I still fell asleep halfway through. *tuts
I’m waffling again...
The march through the wall continues unabated; but oh, so bloody boringly.
