…it’s not you [DOT 25/1/20]

…so…aside from the irritating thing with the entirely excessive use of ellipses…generally on account of being too harassed, harried, hurried, hangry or downright hubristic to consider what that might look like to anybody reading these…or frankly much of anything I’m responsible for winding up posting online…almost none of which I ever seem to find the time to compose into what might be called proper sentences

…which, I’ll level with you, ain’t likely to change…folks who know me a good deal better than most of you have tried but with (at last count) maybe two exceptions they know better than to send me anything & expect a reply without a trail of dots connecting a bunch of it together in ways it arguably shouldn’t

…it’s a fault…a character flaw of sorts…to many of you it doubtless appears to be an affectation…although one or two of you are unlucky enough to know that if pressed I really can fill in all those dots by being so much more long-winded it’ll make your head spin…& your eyes glaze over & roll up into your head…true story

…but I like to think it’s pretty harmless in the grand scheme of things

…whereas a lot of shit these days I’m pretty damn sure is nothing of the sort…so on the basis that I figure folks might like a little more to greet them hereabouts than the ramblings of an unmoored mind I try to throw in a scattering of links to things I’ve read that seem like they might be worth paying some sort of attention to

…like this shit

…but let’s face it…that shit all kind of sucks…& it’s the weekend…so I tried to think of something that might be a little more appropriate?

…mind you, if any of you have better links, or missing links, or something to share be it n’er so rinky-dink it’d be a kindness really to all concerned if you’d drop by & drop it off in the comments so there’s at least the illusion that there’s some reason for the O in DOT at the top of these?

…meanwhile, I guess maybe it’s time for a spot of netflix & chili…damn you, autocorrect?
