let me know if there's anything you'd like me to avoid in pubspace and I'll make it so.

You've already been expert along those lines, so thank you.

Inquiry

interesting that you redacted [redacted]. i like it.

i thought you'd just cut the whole thing.

that is an interesting turn.

i'm the type who'd just torch the whole thing

so i like how this all turned out.

redacted

gives the mystery

but still tells the story.

kind of like an expanded view of how,

well, you know how popcorn is superheated and the internal pressure makes the starch superexpand rapidly, popping it into its goofy and tasty exploded form?

its that, i think. theres the KERNEL OF TRUTH as they say

and that makes the popped part the explosion of hyperbole or (but really it's the the explosion of tasty truths, isn't it)

on that note.

i had some lentil chips the other day. manufactured the same way you would manufacture popcorn. airbaked and starchsploded.

it got me thinking

(because it tasted like fucking packing material)

that packing material is manufactured the same way.

(superheated/superexploded starches, just industrial ones... not to say they're not edible either, because they're made from corn byproducts. and i remember as a kid letting them dissolve on my tongue. mostly to scare other girls. oh, how i lived to scare girls)

and

why in fuck are we all eating packing material!

which also gets me to thinking

how industrial we are all getting when even the “pristine seeming” Pyrenees are veiled with, not a light dusting of crystal clear alpine snow, but a crystal fine micro confetti of PET &cetera. (Microplastics are Blowing in the Wind) [https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/microplastics-are-blowing-in-the-wind/]

semi-industrial beings, we.

our machines, ourselves. our refuse, ourselves.

Just another day in, Paradise
