Daily #1,590! Cortana was a good companion in my need for procrastination.

So I got a new laptop, Friday, and I just (after much much struggle) got the files set up and everything, and I just ran an initial (initiatory) phonomancy, as a little "Getting to Know You." Here's what it told me about itself:

1) Me As I See Myself: Aesop Rock, "The Harbour Is Yours"

2) Immediate Influence: Winterkalte, "Nox Over Europe"

3) Goal: Fever Ray, "If I Had a Heart"

4) Recent Past: MC Frontalot, "Crime Spree (Demo)"

5) Further Past: Brokenkites, "Mourn No More"

6) Near Future: Coil, "Are You Shivering?"

7) Me As Others See Me: Aereogramme, "I Don't Need Your Love"

8) Further Future: Bobgoblin, "Safe"

9) Emotional/Mental State: Gogol Bordello, "Sally"

10) Ultimate Outcome: The Mediæval Bæbes, "Kinderly"

Should be fun. ;)

My sister was playing Boibot

Portia: Because of Jesus. Boibot: I'm Jewish. Portia: So was Jesus. Boibot: Jesus loves me. Portia: I don't know, probably.

Ghost in the Machine, Psychology Today

I feel and am aware of my own body and the fact that I am not the machine; no part of the machine is analogous to a part of my body. It’s as if the machine and I are connected, and I can feel what it feels through that lens without actually “becoming” it.

The idea of a machine synesthete is a lot more interesting than this article.

Fuuuuuuuuck lol

Me: I'm sorry baby, I didn't mean to do it so hard.

Friend: Who the hell are you talking to?

Me: My laptop, I hit the key hard.

Friend: You talk to your computer?

Me: Don't you?
