I walked into a Target yesterday, ostensibly to purchase two pairs of shorts (one for working out/running, etc. and a nicer pair to 'wear around places and such') but I was so struck by [corporate malaise??] that I turned around, no more than twenty feet inside the building, peed in the bathroom and left. I am going to go to the thrift store in my 'hood later today.

The eclipse was so underwhelming, one could argue, that the cosmic force one was anticipating––that of the total and complete life-changing variety––not only didn't come, but was so absent that its blank energy worked, symbolically, in a much stronger, more fervent way, and life did change, completely, after all.

This is actually a very cool idea. I've often thought about [something 'like' this, in the most abstract of terms]. When I walk by litter, I'm not disgusted. There is a story behind every piece of detritus on the street. You couldn't walk fifty feet in my hood without spending half your day tracking the litter via an app like this, and I'm not sure how they intend to 'fix' litter. (Their website descripti is vague af as well:
Geotags provide insight into problem areas, while keywords identify the most commonly found brands and products. This data will be used to work with companies and organizations to find more sustainable solutions....lol what? Yes call CHEETOS® and yell at them because their customers are throwing bags in the street.) But as an art project it is A++. Maybe we shouldn't try to fix this, but rather accept it for all its newage beauty. People used to plant seeds, now they throw Wendy's bag out of their car windows. Different strokes.
