@starbreaker I think I had that bit in there at first! I'll add it back.

Jesus, Jesus, could you tell me what the problem is
With the world and all the people in it?
Because I've been hearing stories about the end of the world
But I'm in love with a girl and I don't wanna leave her

Texas: ok, I'll make the air temperature more bearable but in return I get to make the sun 10x brighter 😵

So after my daughter and wife both started to point out the fact that I habitually hold my breath, I started to pay attention to it, and have discovered that I do it ALL THE TIME. I've long suffered from dizziness when standing up and now I'm fairly certain this contributes to that problem, also according to the internet it's quite bad for my health. The only thing I've read thus far in terms of treating it is meditation and yoga. Anyone else suffer from this very strange condition?

"when I came off Twitter, the world suddenly improved. It became a better place to live in, and the quality of my life improved immeasurably, the sun started to shine and the little birds started singing in the trees. I wasn’t feeling so ill in my body, so worn out and depressed by it all. As far as I can see, social media makes you sick." -- Nick Cave in "Faith, Hope and Carnage"

I’m going to the river
Where the current rushes by

Peasants working in the fields
Keep their heads way down low
Don’t want to let on what they know

In search of a solo small biz consultant to teach me how to get the current books in order and manage some expenses I'm incurring prior to making any money. Plan B is one of these online services but I'd prefer an individual, preferably local to DFW or TX.

"Songs arise out of suffering, by which I mean they are predicated upon the complex, internal human struggle of creation and...as far as I know, algorithms don’t feel. Data doesn’t suffer. ChatGPT has...endured nothing, it has not had the audacity to reach beyond its limitations, and hence it doesn’t have the capacity for a shared transcendent experience...ChatGPT’s melancholy role is that it is destined to imitate and can never have an authentic human experience..."
