Again, hmm.  (And now <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/qRSAiZoONP4?si=aUojIkAPDN-idqHg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Marin Mull<\/a> is slipping through my scarred brain&#8230;)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It fits with the time.  Not nearly as good as <em>Nevermind<\/em>, but that&#8217;s kind of to be expected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s uncomfortably hot here.  Get drinks delivered.  Let&#8217;s look for liquor delivery.  Okay.  There is one.  And they&#8217;ve got World Cup specials.  Segram&#8217;s 7.  Ooh!  I&#8217;ll try to make a 7&amp;7!  The liquor was the easy part;  nobody had 7-Up.  Like nobody.  I seem to remember there being something about that on <a href=\"https:\/\/numlock.news\">Numlock<\/a> not long ago, but I&#8217;m too out of it to find the story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Oh well.  Try it with club soda.  Unimpressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, scanned prompts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u201cWhat does it mean to be a work in progress?&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The subtitle of this shitty blog should probably provide some insight.  Nothing is ever truly finished, and everything gets deleted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How much you can learn from past errors is questionable, but few things ever remain exactly as they were.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Circling back to Nirvana, <em>Smells Like Teen Spirit<\/em> sounded completely different after mixing.  What Kurt Cobain described as a peppy song turned darker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And, yes, I was, and still am, entertained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>&#8220;How can I be gentler with myself in the process?&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I&#8217;m actually wondering if this scanned correctly.  But it&#8217;s unimportant.  Wherever I could have been my greatest self is in a fading rear-view. I&#8217;m broken.  I&#8217;m almost certain that even if in the unlikely event that my various MS maladies are &#8220;cured,&#8221; I&#8217;m still on the downslope of life.  There&#8217;s no memorable achievements ahead.  So, fight entropy, and hope some people who care about me outlive me, and remember me fondly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wonder if the AI review would say that that&#8217;s raw, honest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Very aware that revisiting stuff with which you\u2019re not entirely-familiar yields mixed reactions.
