Science fiction, fantasy, mystery and what-not
He said, it’s just an accident, it’s just a death. Nothing to worry about, not worth the mess.
He said, everyone gets sick, it’s nothing to fear. Nothing to worry about, it’ll all come clear.
Then, when it was his own family who died, he said with a sad face, who could’ve known that this could take place?
Floofslide (floofinition) – 1. An animal action of dragging their rear over flooring or grass.
In use: “After leaving the litter box, Tucker executed a floofslide, worrying Michael on multiple levels.”
2. Enormous, or one-sided victory for an animal in a dispute or disagreement.
In use: “Winning in a floofside, the cats took control of the bed, curled up, and slept all day.”
Today’s choice came from a post read online. The old line, “We’ll have to agree to disagree,” was used in closing. It’s used so often when you can’t see eye-to-eye. Its usage now was in conjunction with election fraud accusations and the lack of evidence. The one saying “Well have to agree to disagree” w as insisting evidence was there but nobody was being permitted to reveal it.
Really. SMFH.
Anyway, from that, an old Dave Mason song, “We Just Disagree”, roared into my head. Although it came out in the 1970s, you may have heard it, as others have covered it. Hope you enjoy it. Stay positive and test negative. Wear a mask. Get vaccinated. Keep your fingers crossed. Cheers
I was helping others create security devices. That’s how it was put in the dream. It was a firm, and we were working outside, in the world. My security device ended up looking like a lawnmower chassis, the sort with a little gas engine that you push and walk behind. There was no engine, handle, or wheels, just that shape, from below. Hope you get the visual from this explanation. The kicker was that it was huge, and high up in the sky.
I pointed it out to people, laughing about its lawnmower resemblance. “I didn’t realize that when I created it,” I said. Then I went on to tell them that it would perpetually filter the world against security threats, and never come down. Then they showed and told me about their security devices.
Weirdest thing about this dream is that I had three other dreams. In them, I’d look up, and there was my security lawnmower. I laugh even now remembering that.
Singing “When I Come Around” by Green Day (1995) to myself this morning. It’d become one of my regular walking songs back when I started walking as part of my writing routine. I always enjoy the lines about doing it right.
So go do what you like
Make sure you do it wise
You may find out that your self-doubt means nothing was ever there
You can’t go forcing something if it’s just not right
h/t to Genius.com
I always thought that good writing advice. You can’t go forcing it. Take your time and do it right.
Merry new year. May your 2021 be filled with joy, optimism, and success. Stay positive. Test negative.
Cheers
Sister Floof (floofinition) – Floofadelphia based vocal floop group. Formed by four sisters in 1971, the group achieved fame and celebrity for their music, with their greatest success coming during the floofco era.

My wife informed me she’s ordered snail mucus.
The snail mucus is good for her skin. It comes from South Korea (aka, the Republic of Korea). The procurers assure us the snails are not harmed when the mucus is milked.
We’re talking about opening a snail farm in southern Oregon. Gotta figure out how to milk those snails. Don’t think our fingers are small enough. Must be really tiny fingers to milk those snails. Maybe it’s done by a machine. Hope they’re not using children. They have tiny fingers. Just sayin’.
I gather that South Korea is on a roll with skin and hair products.
Meanwhile a relative sent us CBD TheraReleaf lotions and creams in the mail. They’re extra-strength, of the Arnica+ variety. I applied some lotion to my sore left hand last night. That was the one I broke. Still swells and stiffens after strenuous flexing and exercise. The arm, hand, and wrist all felt mighty improved after the lotion was applied. That could be my mind thinking it should be better, right? Yes, but I think it’s the lotion. I’m going to keep using it.
I like its smell. It reminds me of licorice.
I’d like some licorice. It’s been months since I’ve had any. Why don’t we keep licorice on hand? Answer: because I gobble it up like a cat hoovering in catnip.
My wife mentioned ordering Kitty Chups for our felines. I searched online for more information. The first result was from Amazon, and was for women’s apparel. Whaaat? I clicked on it to see what came up. Cups came up. Cups, not Chups. Kitties were featured on the cups. No women’s apparel was on the page. No wonder half the world seems confused about what’s going on.
Amazon said, “You can search instead for kitty chups.” I clicked on that. Products similar to the Chups came up but the page asked, “Did you mean kitty cups?”
Oh, my, just watched a trailer for a new show, then the first seven minutes of the first episode. That would be Resident Alien on SyFy starring Alan Tudyk. Looks promising. Hope some streaming service picks it up fast. You listening, Netflix?
Bet Amazon gets it.
