A quotation from Arthur Conan Doyle
My dear fellow, life is infinitely stranger than anything which the mind of man could invent. We would not dare to conceive the things which are really mere commonplaces of existence. If we could fly out of that window hand in hand, hover over this great city, gently remove the roofs, and peep in at the queer things which are going on, the strange coincidences, the plannings, the cross-purposes, the wonderful chains of events, working through generations, and leading to the most outré results, it would make all fiction with its conventionalities and foreseen conclusions most stale and unprofitable.
Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930) British writer and physician

“You will remember that I remarked the other day, just before we went into the very simple problem presented by Miss Mary Sutherland, that for strange effects and extraordinary combinations we must go to life itself, which is always far more daring than any effort of the imagination.”
“A proposition which I took the liberty of doubting.”
“You did, Doctor, but none the less you must come round to my view, for otherwise I shall keep on piling fact upon fact on you until your reason breaks down under them and acknowledges me to be right.”Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) British writer and physician

Time has been weird these past two weeks. Like really... off. Not sure if I mentioned but last week felt like Thursday all week, then Friday I legit could not remember the week right. Like I knew it happened but... it was like I read a summary of it.
"She had a mostly uneventful week, punctuated by her perpetual frustration with her job." <-- like that.
THIS week has so far felt like a perpetual Weds.
And I'd just dismiss it, but things ALSO feel full of potential, like one of those brief windows of possibility where the normal paths of what can be are laid aside and ANYTHING becomes possible, if u can figure it out.
Last time this happened and I found my way through, I passed a threshold. Or a test.
I sense, not know, that whatever it is, is something I'd never have expected. And my feeling is that I'll have to choose to take a huge risk.
And that is to start.
Will I pass thru, or will I miss the opp?
I guess we will see. Ha ha.

Somebody please explain why signs like these would ever be necessary on a community college campus.
Seriously, were these kids raised by wolves?

Hi. Many of you remember that some months ago, I was posting about my simulated #baseball league, the #NABA . And then I stopped. It wasn't because I didn't like it, or that I didn't like you, or because summer came and the #Orioles have been limping along in the AL East (and we're currently losing to the Mariners at the Yards, ffs). It's because I was dealing with some stressful family drama. It's a long freakin' story, and it isn't yet quite resolved, but that's a topic for another time. I want to get back to doing things that are fun and having a life.
(Just an aside to say that on the upside, I may be getting another client venue for my main job, so while that also may affect my free time, things are looking up somewhat. Follow @atomictrivia for more details.)
So at some point in the near future, I'm going to fire up the sim again, dust it off, and get it restarted - probably advancing it to the playoffs and then getting to the 2026 season.
Suggestions are always welcome. Offers of money and/or sexual favors are probably even more welcome.

Does anyone else have weird dreams frequently? Last night I was eating giant grapes with Jennifer Lawrence. That wasn't the weirdest bit.

How My Debut Book “Wonderment Within Weirdness” Won a 4-Star Literary Titan Award
There are moments in life that do not fully register at first. Moments where you stare at a screen, reread the same sentence multiple times, and wonder if what you are seeing is actually real. For me, one of those moments came when I found out that my debut book, Wonderment Within Weirdness, had received a 4-star silver award from the Literary Titan. Now, before anyone misunderstands what I am saying, no, the Literary Titan award is not the Pulitzer Prize. It is not one of those century-old […] -
