Drone
Have you felt like someone was following you and when you turned around nobody was there, but you were worried they were still behind you? Wherever you turned, your unseen stalker always managed to keep just out of sight?
I bring this up because for several months I've been followed by a constant humming, a droning I can't shake. Almost like tinnitus but it's coming from behind me, even though there's nothing there.
Except it turns out I really am being followed by a surveillance drone. We all are these days.
So the good news is I'm not going crazy.
Altered Realms Of Reality
The adventure of a quantum man. I used to be much larger. I used to live on Sagittarius. Doubt me? I doubt myself these days.
There on some parallel realm, the US used Celsius and to have a temperature meant you were 100 C. Makes me wonder if fat suits are just avatars from someplace else stuck in a heated environment. To live for years at 73 constant without snow. Now to have snow and live at 1 C. Makes me question my sanity these days. Do I remember correctly or am I just caught up in some grand adventure?
