hi tumblr! today is a good day!!!!

didn’t need to get my eyes dilated, thrillingly, so i can still look at things; and then i had a very fun time at bed bath and beyond because i never told you all this but i am actually 55 and incredibly boring. now i am the proud owner of a paper towel holder and also some wine glasses.

and it’s actually nice out! i’m probably not like, going to go outside, but that’s still good. just generally.

Both funny and poignant:

I chanced upon an ancient cache of code:
a stack of printouts, tall as any man,
that in decaying boxes had been stowed.
Ten thousand crumbling pages long it ran.

The target hardware, likewise, lies in ruin.
Entombed within one lone procedure’s scope,
a line of code and then these words appear:
# TEMPORARY, I HOPE HOPE HOPE
The code beside persisting to the last—
as permanent as aught upon this sphere—
while overhead, a vacant moon flies past.
