Staying home (4/27/20)

I’ve been wearing the same shorts for a week now
Just noticed they’re actually swim trunks

Money is acting all weird

I paid my stylist not to give me a haircut

I left a $20 bill as a tip for a delivery guy

Time is acting all weird

I don’t know, maybe, maybe it’s just impossible to tell how fast it’s going

Because the days no longer have names

The concerts, the dancing, the gathering

That was yesterday month’s yestermonth

and like, right now

As the things I said I would do yesterweek
Slip into tomorrowday

All I have time for
Is things that don’t matter

If the State of California is trying to send me a secret message, let’s just say I have successfully decoded it.

We hate you now

These words have been percolating in my head for months now but I didn’t have the courage to write and share them.

She did.

eSkate POV

Since my 2012 bicycle accident, I’ve been taking HD POV recordings of as much of my riding as possible. One of the first things I learned in criminal court is that the presumption of innocence is complete and total bullshit. You’re guilty from the moment you’re charged and innocence is a misdemeanor—if you’re lucky. Recording every ride is a way to PROVE my innocence, and even though no one should ever have to, this is how I cope given my experience with the criminal justice system.

FWIW, I don’t ride bikes much anymore, but I am doing maybe 50 miles/week on an electric skateboard, and I did an 11 mile loop today. I normally just discard the footage, but this evening I exported a 20x recap of my ride, which gives a sense of the breathtaking experience of skateboarding the southwest quadrant of San Francisco, including riding over the shoulder of Twin Peaks and a descent down Laguna Honda. Maybe soon I’ll post my northwest loop, which is even more beautiful.
