tit nit decadence · shameful ass ally screw off · stupid behavior
The local custom of using haiku reductions as writing prompts continues to devolve into nitwit depravity. Today’s twist is the drabble, a short short story that is exactly 100 words long. Using google docs as a measuring guide is the latest techno-cultural appropriation. The misuse of digital tools to enable decadent perambulating is the latest stupid behavior to appear smart. Is it smart, is it art, can you buy it at K-Mart? The last one is unlikely, since the blue light special has flickered into memory, replaced by the nonstop shart of Walmart consumption. The TrickyDick seventies did have culture.
honor? again? this? · act ignore time guilt? What just… · prove need today? joy
This image was inspired by “12 Questions Nobody Asks Before Burnout (But Should) TQNABB is another instance of what some unkind people call motivation porn. Since they were numbered, there is order to the haiku. This all proved challenging to the reduction perp. Choose at least one word out of each cell, with seven having one beat and the remaining five going beat beat. Beat on the brat with a baseball bat is another cure for burnout, even if cleaning up afterwards is a job for mister clean. You have honor? at one end, and unpunctuated joy at the other.
immediacy · overproduced vulgar mess · opera poet
Modern life is an overproduced vulgar mess. There is a routine, which helps to make sense of the devolving chaos, ensure that your teeth are brushed and meds consumed. Some need canned entertainment, others prefer recreational quiet. When you have a shared space between a person who enjoys quiet, and a person who needs commodified entertainment, there will be drama. May the biggest mouth win. These authority asserting struggles can be so unpleasant, but seem to be a part of life in a tribal setting. When you confuse who has the strongest will for being RIGHT, there is drama.
Goddess pagan ass · celebrate usual change · Death tarot magick?
The modern holiday season brings memes to the dinner table. Solstice is always a reason for the season occasion, and a time for passive aggressive digs at the ill mannered jesus worshiper who feels that their holiday is the only true one, and that all others are wrong. The end of the four season cycle is the death of the old order, with a promise of a spring rebirth after a tasteful cold season. The pagans know this, and celebrate accordingly. Wait until after the holidays to touch up their purple hair, and shop for tofu at the neighborhood collective.

Part of the process at chamblee54 is the internet break. When you are at a stopping point, you leave the machine and check out facebook, bluesky, twitter, youtube, reddit, and other less wholesome destinations. Occasionally there are gems, like this: @tao_lin To all the unmerry people out there. The lonely, the disgruntled, the grumpy, the depressed, the spurned, the people in chronic pain, the severely autistic, and so on, I wish you a day—you do not need to be merry, you’ll make it through this Christmas, it’s almost over. This tweet does not mention gender dysphoric minors.
Luigi lust feel · “great” go bankrupt need heroes · murder hot as f-ck
Ninety years ago, Americans were angry at bankers. Many banks failed during the depression, leaving millions broke. When John Dillinger started to rob banks, and get away with it, he became a hero. After Mr. Dillinger died, rumors about his sexual prowess only made people admire him more. There is even a rumor, heard by every eighth grade boy in America, that his pecker was on display at the Smithsonian Institute. Today, Americans feel cheated by health insurance executives. Luigi Mangione made a  choice about this inequity. We do not know if the Smithsonian will get his Dillinger.
