Only a rare impossible chance encounter or joke about Waitrose...likely falling flat.
Being just like the words that the Narnian tribes kindof flooded the whole land with from sea to sea (which fail to protect any sea - as VARIOUS fine women of my acquaint thisteryear do also lament but wont DO anything about it like even write the pieces with me they said they would.... one even withdrew hers the only couple of cowritten things i thought were there forever as they were good!) yes shared language, shared humour, is now so hard... takes a long time to find.
And only 'story' or at least stuff that happens unexpectedly and is 'alive' works...
this one of a range of attempts over a couple of years ...'worked'... many reads and clicks on it ...

(two of about 5 'scenes' i have in my sexin'-it-up [ i never use THAT expression unless i trust someone] around how much more beautiful a middle aged woman can be when she accepts the grey and then guess what looks younger too..as two years ago right on the cliffs above the junky beaches of Porthleven a magnificent woman who i had landloped by aimlessly and in friendly posture said " and my skin definately as aged in harmony with the grey so as to look younger.." and many times i have queried this in peeps and they always agree and that's not picking on women sewerage systemites if they can symbolically give up the poison maybe they can poke the blokes too about how awful their brut or deodorant whiffs....all xenobiotics are bad period.... ].. i have a whole summer of portraiture on that theme ...
but still didnt 'work' in that as the lovely very wise older Greek said he knows that 'collaboration' is the hardest thing to find but worth looking for ... nobody ever follows through - dozens riffed with at great length always ending with "think about how to share these things in an engaging way....ohh yes and theres cash innit because NObody manages to do what is so obviously overdue..."
Anyway i hate polemic unless it is so rawly in the moment of being in an even better mood than ever i remained awake past bedtime buzzing and mulling... "how?"
But there's no point the pixies always gang up sooner or later and find reasons not to.... ever....
Anyway many years of absurdist little clips (parodying or lampooning really how the whole 'Youtube generation' isnt inspired by Youtube especially if they are 'creators' - so many if not all collapse into a xenobiotic ball of sludge with nothing to say at all as what they were saying not even they believed in it really... be it detox to toxic shamania.......so i have a decade of very arty photorealism the real version of realism, they and lovely very arty photos that need a verse or so
swhich will keep me happily occupied the rest of my life... since 'leaning in' to the Road (Cormack) - meaning, for the two dimensional if there are any left, that yucky word picture in his so so nihilistic book, as allegory metaphor or figure os speech for .... it all, now, as discussed so enjoyably yesterlateaft
But you do have to LAUGH - sanely and seriously at it ALL..... as i have been for several years full time and ten years part time...
but whilst attempting to DO....a bit at least...
"leaning in" is so good for you even if yet another of their saccharine phrases for never even replying to a note or email... as that would mean just a smallest hint one may just wish to be a tad part of something next.... which means effort and fear well read The Black Swan the only great 'self help' book that isnt but he knew it is as attempting to show how we simply NEVER can know how we feel the other side of any event new 'encounter'.. terrible event... never it's not possible. People are addicted to only assuming and knowing what cannot be known... the great Taleb so perfectly allegoried...
never mind it being the key to keeping the eyes bright and back upstuck for even longer....
jump...
(but as i have sermonised 10 years" ehh bungee jumping in the Amazon or from MAchu pichu....doesnt count as 'experience' .... only unphotographable even un 'successful' landin' on your arse with no safety net to catch you, ever ever can... be experience... the whole 'experience economy' a con merely for cash
Anyway one smallest polemic left to make this year and thats it never was any point even top elf seems to have gone wonky now three and a half years..... of nett result: nothing.
Which is freedom merely to jot ones reflections forever...
augmented by many an arty languid series of dawn shots etc etc but mine are real and sometimes have cheeky quips attached...
period.
pause.
(not peri that dont exist either you can either get up that duff or not, and i told someone no not a 'bit' of the story (see othersite) yesteraft but the saddest truth of them all..... on teh day that now in YUK it seems that in fact over 50% wont even let them out the au naturelle way
(interview with truly lovely and fierce just retired midwife a year ago utterly despairing of how her lifes work was wasted.... [many scientific reasons why au naturelle is best no qestion " when i started it was maybe 5% ...now most of them want the easy way... !" ....whicjh of course inst the medium term easy way as the real measurable lifelong health benefits having been booted out the funhole.... are measurable ...never mind " and over half cant give their kids longer life expectancy by tolleratin' a bit of a sore tit....i despair!" ...just like ive wasted every second of my unexpected 'activisty' caring..... but you just gotta do what you try to do even if you get it wrong
probably wont be viewable until 1300
i do have a fair few very avid fans who come here the second i click publish....wonder who? friend or foe.... which is the point it doesnt matter only knowing unarogantly that unlike every towny polemicist or eco'media' creator for 20+ years you have LIVED what you say first...before merely parroting some other Charles Eisenstein or latest clever dick towny guru who wants to be a guru rather than toilet cleaner ...but doesnt REALLY care what gets flushed down his bog...
