I post minutiae here, on twitter, on livejournal, everywhere I go. I'm all about minutiae.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Minutiae is all I've got. If there was some smaller even more mundane unit of discourse, that would probably be where I'm at on profound days.
Oh my god. Enver Gjokaj is brilliant.
I KNOW! I will miss his antics.
I just outed myself as a gay-friendly on Facebook. Most of my extended family (those I saw on Thanksgiving in the "Inland Empire") are probably too polite to comment on my link to Senator Savino's great speech, but someone might. At best, they'll be praying for me in church on Sunday.
Just read that a freeway traffic sign I'd driven under many times was put up by a civilian and CalTrans left it up for over nine years, because apparently people did need to know which way to go to get to the 5 freeway from downtown. Now it's gone...they've put up a whole new sign, but they've included the guerrilla information this time.
I'd have to be caught having gay sex, in public, a number of times, for me to be able to cause a same-sex kerfuffle in my family. When they say it's 10% of the population--if you're not related to any gay people it's because I'm related to all of them. All the black female ones, anyway, and at least one of the males.
Which reminds me, I'm not sure if I ever told meara that the cousin I wanted to set her up with is a man now. If that's a problem, I have others, but the most butch of them is unstable and evil (she once broke up with a guy who was in the ICU after a suicide attempt over him. she later married him and then left him months after the lavish wedding. she also kicked her grandmother down a flight of stairs). But I can find others. Her little sister is kinda butch and quite cute.

Whoa.
I had no idea.
I just noticed that a neighbor (whose truck I recognize) is parking in my parking space, that I am paying for even though I no longer own a car. We sent a message to the building and Craigslist months ago that the space was available for rent, but had no takers. I'm going to forgive it for one night, and after that, is it wrong to send a message to the building that if you park there without paying me, you are going to be SO TOWED, asshole? Minus the asshole?
Hmmmm....I wonder if you could work out a trade with the truck owner? Maybe let him or her park there in exchange for getting rides when you need them (I am thinking for when you need to haul something big, etc)? Could be a win-win since you can't find a renter? Maybe the neighbor is low on cash but could barter?
I don't really need a ride to haul anything. For me, it's the principle of the thing. The space was offered to rent at cost. Nobody wanted it, therefore nobody gets to park there without my permission, goddamnit. What if I'd expected visitors? What if I'd rented it out to someone else?
Oh no, for sure don't let him or her do it again without your permission, that's not what I was saying. I was just thinking you should get some value out of the space, even if you can't rent it for money. And I do think it's rude to park in your space without your permission.
