This is my usual experience on the 'gram
Creepily apocalyptic but also I want to live there.

I know how it feels to be humiliated
How it burns to feel small
I wish all your giants to be capitulated
Every demon to crawl
But I can’t do anymore than kneel and pray
I can’t say anymore than "Sure is sunny"
Sure is sunny today
This one started off as part of a spicy but squirrely group. After someone fell over standing at a traffic light, my friend and I made sure he was good to go, but the group had sped off, so friend and I headed towards coffee and tacos. Then home, where we picked up my 10 yo son for another 13 miles.
If you're wondering how someone falls over while standing at a stoplight, me too. I assume he was clipped in on one side and fell onto that side, having stood unbalanced and unable to extract his foot from that pedal when his weight shifted.
The funny part was I was trackstanding (balancing while stopped with feet still in the pedals) right next to him.
Ok, speaking of, in the middle of this excellent Bandcamp Daily collection is this, which I can't figure out:

Given what we know about the Bandcamp purchase and subsequent bloodletting, is this a coded cry for help or evidence of Stockholm syndrome?
"...it's only a matter of time before the iPhone becomes more intelligent than you are at which point it can truly optimize your happiness by recommending you buy a flip phone and switch to Linux."
"Grace is fundamentally anti-self-help"
"...but also the idea of getting one of these low effort images as a birthday wish, I don't know, it just feels like this would get stale very quickly..."
