Netflix’s Cabinet of Curiosities is milking gems from horror and weird fiction. I’m excited to watch “The Autopsy” episode, which is based on one of my favorite short stories.
Cats are going out of their way to talk to me today. Curious.
The keening of electric cars has become increasingly prevalent in my neighborhood.
Mike Davis’s City of Quartz taught me to see cities in a new light. Davis showed the things cities hide, like prisons that look like an innocuous high-rise. Davis demonstrated the uses of tactical design, such as park benches that the homeless are unable to sleep on.

I am thrilled that William Gibson’s The Peripheal is a tv series. I’m puzzled that Bezo’s didn’t acquire and produce Neuromancer, but I’ll let that slide. My fingers are crossed that Amazon will adapt Gibson’s Bigend Trilogy.
I’ve gotten over my embarrassment of going out in public with a sling bag, AKA the tactical purse. Now that I appreciate their practicality, I covet the slings bags other people sport. So much room! My bag barely holds my essentials.

I have a collection of grocery bags, but for the most part, I only use one bag. It’s a brown plastic grocery bag from 7-Eleven, and I’ve been using it, I believe, for the last four months. It’s astonishing how much use I’ve got this one bag.

I’m pleased that my first two smart notes were about Blue Ant, the agile marketing agency of digital nomads from William Gibson’s novel Pattern Recognition, and unpacking an aphorism by E. M. Cioran.
“Myths turn back into concepts: that is decadence.”
Finished reading: How to Take Smart Notes by Sönke Ahrens 📚 I was hoping for concrete examples of how to make smart notes, not why I should make them.
I would love to see examples of Obsidian metadata.

I was going to do the responsible thing and go to bed at a reasonable hour. But I discovered William Gibson’s The Peripheral television series is out. So, I’m staying up late. The intro is quite good, and the moments feel like a nod to one of the covers for Neuromancer.
