0079b — FAILSCAPES FROM THE FIRST FLOWCHART OF THE NEW ERA

I'm not going to lie, but I am typing this sentence at a pretty good clip because I want to go play my electric guitar. Evening is wrapping up fast, not much light left, and there are moody clouds due for rain. I am upstairs and I can sit in the wide window that faces the street and Mt. Hood and plug in the amp and twiddle the dial to a synthetic pedal preset that I created. It's kind of ethereal like Frusciante's The Empyrean. I'm playing a Telecaster I got used a couple years ago. Its action is so light and easy that I'm bending notes I don't even mean to. It's like trying to fret across the belly of a ticklish finch. You have to be delicate.

I just got a new Stratocaster in yesterday, and played it through some pedals last night. (A touch of Drive -> Chorus on high rate and medium depth -> slapback Delay -> Amp reverb; kind of an indie pop vibe along the lines of Orion's Belte or Drug Cabin) Similar light action, I definitely need to learn how to play more delicately. So much fun though. Those Fenders really have a classic tone.

It would be rad as the Dickens and we are almost to silence. So almost.

I might play my electric guitar and some pedals today

I just thought that the aggressiveness of cheekbones on handsome men over the years would ultimately lead to men who look like Boba Fett. That helmet has some bangin' definition.

I didn't want to speak for the ladies, but I have heard here and there over the years that a silent vibrator would be rad for (the ladies). I do not know if this technology has come to pass.

That is the anatomy of a line that face planted right before the finish line.

Chris Onstad

On the one hand, yeah, the "Arizona of my body" line deserves a (?). But on the other hand, there's a real despairing kind of poetry to it.

The zigzag stonks-going-up line text is exactly correct.

I have to admit I didn't actually get what you were going for with the increasing cheekbone prominence until the rejected caption spelled it out for me haha. Great stuff.
