The Porch

I’m just sitting on the porch watching my dog roll in the grass. It looks fun. When was the last time I rolled in the grass? If I ever did, it was when I was a kid. I love the idea of my neighbors peeking out their window and seeing an adult man rolling around…

Melodically Challenged

Melodically Challenged is a radio show on a local college radio station where I live. Album 88. I love the station and have been listening to it my entire adult life, since high school. I don’t usually listen to it on Tuesday nights… until now. Apparently, Melodically Challenged has been airing for years, and I…

92% (Mid 2010 MacBook)

92% That’s where my battery life is on my mid-2010 MacBook, which I’m using to write to you. It might sound like a lot, but it will die fast. I wish I could think of my life as having 92% battery life left. It might sound like a lot, but that will go fast, too,…

High on Fear

This is going to be a short post. It’s short because because my wife is talking to me about politics while I type this. Also, I’m getting a late start. She is high on fear right now. I’m on status.cafe now My Bear blog.

Flowers

I’ve been hearing people talk about how flowers are depressing. Why watch something so beautiful die? Get a plant instead. I guess you could say Humans and flowers have a lot in common. It’s a short one today! https://bear.borb.blog/flowers

Ads in Our Dreams

I had a nightmare that ads were in our dreams. That would mean Bear would be less monetized than our own dreams. There is a movie that kind of talks about this idea too. If it could happen, it would. Dreams are already ads of self-conscious thought. I’m not going to sit here and say…

Clouds & Cassette Tapes

Clouds… I don’t see one. Nothing but a blue sky. Wind chimes are dancing and singing. I only see the dancing and can’t hear the singing. My headphones are singing lofi beats to me instead. It’s a little cold today. My fish pond has iced over, so I couldn’t feed our three fish this morning.…

My Cat Says Hi!

“zfc78ujfguighj”, My cat just walked on my keyboard right before I started to type, and that’s what he wrote. “zfc78ujfguighj” I’m not sure what he’s trying to tell you, but it’s probably him saying to pay more attention to him. He is laying on my wrist as I type now. We have a pretty good…

After Dark

“Time moves in a special way in the middle of the night.” That’s a line from the novel After Dark by Haruki Murakami. Here is some fan art I found. I think fan art for books is cool. I might do a drawing of the man with no face from this book. The book didn’t…

The Void

I write every day in my journal, which I never read. I actually throw it in the trash when it’s full and get another one. I also write poetry and sometimes stories. This blog is special in its own way. It is almost a void… a void that is the internet. But it is a…
