I wear contacts. And when I go to see a 3D movie, I get the polarized glasses just like everyone else. However, I would like for my optimologist to prescribe me polarized contacts.
If you had polarized contacts, you could interact with the world in a completely different way. Every 2D surface could be brought to greater depth. Advertising would be the thing most noticable. This is a very achieveable future. Let’s make it happen, huh?
James Cameron, I’m looking at you to take point on this one.

Loving this song. Give it a listen. Lyrics provided because they are awesome.
Yeah, when I was only seventeen I could hear the angels whispering So I drove into the woods And wandered aimlessly about Until I heard my mother shouting through the fog It turned out to be the howling of a dog Or a wolf, to be exact The sound sent shivers down my back But I was drawn into the pack and before long They allowed me to join in and sing their song So from the cliffs and highest hills Yeah, we would gladly get our fill Howling endlessly and shrilly at the dawn And I lost the taste for judging right from wrong For my flesh had turned to fur Yeah, and my thoughts they surely were Turned to instinct and obedience to God
You can wear your fur Like a river on fire But you’d better be sure If you’re making God a liar I’m a rattlesnake, babe, I’m like fuel on fire So if you’re gonna get made Don’t be afraid of what you’ve learned
On the day that I turned 23 I was curled up underneath a dogwood tree When suddenly a girl Her skin the color of a pearl She wandered aimlessly, but she didn’t seem to see She was listening for the angels just like me So I stood and looked about I brushed the leaves off of my snout And then I heard my mother shouting through the trees You should have seen that girl go shaky at the knees So I took her by the arm We settled down upon a farm And raised our children up as gently as you please
And now my fur has turned to skin And I’ve been quickly ushered in To a world that, I confess, I do not know But I still dream of running careless through the snow Through the howling winds that blow Across the ancient distant flow To fill our bodies up like water till we know
You can wear your fur Like a river on fire But you’d better be sure If you’re making God a liar I’m a rattlesnake, babe, I’m like fuel on fire So if you’re gonna get made Don’t be afraid of what you’ve learned
Been tweeting a lot so I just added my feed in here, so if my posts seem quick and dirty — they are.

The two issues that I am most encountering on Twitter are that I want to enter contests, without spamming my friends/followers, and that I have dirty tweets that I’m not tweeting because I don’t want all my followers that are “Professional” to associate that sort of deviancy with me, per se.
And that’s the rub: Gotta make a second twitter account to post all the terrible and awesome stuff. Also to filter spam out of my regular feed.
Also: share user name and password with friends for plausable deniability.

Sunset in Brooklyn following storm. (Taken from school roof on the last day of school.)
Been listening to this one for a couple days. As the referring site says, it’s pretty much amazing.

me:Professor Responsibility says "Pay off debts before making new ones"
Josh:Professor Responsibility is wise. If not a pain in the ass.
me:Yeah, I try not to listen to him, but sometimes he's REALLY LOUD
Josh:He sounds like some sort of DAD.
me:He is. It's me as a dad. Maybe that's what the Quarter Life Crisis is about. Being your own dad and rebelling against yourself.
Josh:You could be right. I think it's about having had too many expectations that we'd all be rock stars and movie gods by the time we were 24. EN-TITLE-MENT.
me:But I think it's really more about our pre-24 identities striving for rockstarness through inverse actions of our parents. Then once we become the rent payers, breadwinners, trying to rebel against ourselves, which is in effect rebelling against the rebel. It all becomes feedback and we're left confused with our ears ringing.
Josh:You've left me with nothing clever to say in response. I think you're right.
