Mine isn't telling jokes yet although the concept of funny has definitely emerged. Lately he's been hitting me with odd little poems and I'll occasionally witness him inventing a song. Just over 2 years old, for context.

Sprung this on me today sitting in his high chair, and i almost texted my wife to make sure she hadn't gotten into a car accident.

Mama can't come home.
Half of the moon is outside,
and half a leaf.
Half of plane is outside.
Half of mama is coming home.
Half of tomorrow is coming outside.

I still feel like i need to burn some sage

[Introvert]

What was his lesson on ‘half’ that burned it into his brain so well? Apparently at that age, I used a lot of words, some half way complex, that there’s no way I totally knew what they meant, but I somehow used them in a semi-logical way

[Eight Bit Alien]

He's interested in the half and crescent moon phases, and has half of a pinecone in his toybox. Honestly beyond that there's no way to explain any of it, they record everything and how the data gets processed is a mystery.

Laying in his crib one morning he started singing this song. I transcribed it as best I could, I'd say this is about 80% accurate:

Truck big black truck
Nobody knows
It's in the garage

Red truck red truck
Nobody knows
Grandpa parks him in the garage

Nobody knows
He sing him song
Backscratcher
Pokey stick
Backscratcher

Tools tools
Nobody knows
It's weedwhacker

Big black crows
Nobody knows

This is structurally based on a single-paragraph poem in one of his books, but that one is only about crows and all the rest of the stuff above are his own topics of interest. I couldn't explain the mechanics of it if I tried.

Anyone here meditate? I have the Balance app and I like it a lot, but I have only used it sparingly. I was feeling kind of irritable today and did a session on my lunch break at work and it really helped calm me down and let go of some tension.

[ghost boner]

yeah but beer does the same thing

[cxwx]

yeah but beer does the same thing

I only drank three beers last weekend

[The Bill]

yeah but beer does the same thing

And you don’t need no damn ‘app’ for that!

[godofdeadlydeath]

yeah but beer does the same thing

I don't drink anymore!

I was going through it yesterday, as they say. I realized later in the day it was because I'd barely eaten anything and I drank a shitload of coffee so my anxiety and negative thoughts were kind of spiraling. Meditating calmed me down but then I felt all jittery after until I made myself a fucking sandwich. The older I get the more I realize how what I put into my body really fucks with my mental state. It sucks!

Imagine being dead and the only photo they can find to memorialize you is one of you drinking and giving the camera the middle finger

When the grizzled old bartender at my main neighborhood dive in Portland died years ago, I found a picture I had taken of him sitting at the bar, beer in front of him, cigarette in one hand and flipping me off with the other hand with a big smile on his face. I printed it out 8x10, framed it and took it to the bar for his memorial gathering of the juggalos. It hung on the wall for years until they did some renovations and his wife took it home. Pretty sure that’s how he would’ve wanted to be remembered.
