Today is a smatter of thought and a heart heavy with world. This is what is going on, what is being refreshed and impressed, swilled:
Subway car-hopping: The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) may begin throwing $75 fines to those who walk between subway cars. My opinion: it’s like the seatbelt law. The risk is not obscured from you; make your own decision. Making this sort of law and fining people who don’t abide is just bad parenting, bad religion. Don’t worship god/gods/otherwise because you’re scared of going to hell if you don’t. Do so because you choose to. Christ, have a brain, a spine, and some pudding. Act like responsibly fucking adults. (Noted, injury or fatality may cause unnecessary problem for the city and then some--existential frustration exemplified.)
Soon you may also be fined $50 for placing a foot on a seat or platform bench. Feed the cat, tip up and shoot back.
Federico Fellini: He says, I always direct the same film. I can't distinguish one from the other. Note to self: watch a second time 8 ½ and La Dolce Vita. This is vital, for I have just lost an eyelash. Afterward, see I Vitelloni.
New Hope, PA: a) There are many ways to get to New Hope. b) In New Hope ducks hang out on patios where people drink beer and slushy cocktails. Always one will be a woman. c) Angsty teenagers attracted to counterculture will pierce their sternums and wear pink skirts that stop just before the apples of their ass cheeks round off. At home, dressed like knights, they will cry. d) Same city, same yellow building, different configuration. e) A girl will select a restaurant and then walk past it ad infinitum until a breeze cools her sweaty left hand. f) All of the above.
Answer: f, on some psychic latitudes but not on others. Such is life. Blue globe, a fractaling calculus spiders the outside in. The parallels and perpendiculars can not at root be distinguished one from the other, no matter the color of paint.

i need to think like this sometimes. it removes cobwebs from the brain.
and, boy is that vital, cobweb removal. it doesn't take long for them to amass.
Boy is that city desperate for money! Enough with the stupid little laws that just waste everyone's time and money. People do need common sense sometimes.
I hear I've missed the golden years of New Hope though I still liked what I saw there.
