i think of stuff i cannot do / and hope it happens pretty soon

2023-08-27 Knotty Superblack Crow

The op-art movement is revisited with new pan-medium expression, which targets the functional glitches of the human brain to induce psychological states.

You drop fruit and veggie seeds into a wooded area. When summer rolls around, you go there with your friends and feast.
I make beer from flour, sugar, and water alone. It actually tastes good, and my friends aren't afraid to drink it.

Using carbon fiber yarn, you knit shapes and cure them with resin, creating super-strong mechanical structures.
An AI CEO sustains her business & herself through stock trades and occasional contracts with humans.
A short story is written with tons of emoji because that's the best way to tell it.
Fiona Apple and I sit down for ten-minute tea. My jokes are bad, but she is polite.
