Love → Building on Fire

It’s not love
it’s not love
which is my face
which is a building
which is on fire

The Name of This Band is Talking Heads remains a favorite. I wore out one cassette from back when I was 16 and driving around with a monaural cassette player in a 1972 Volvo in 1986. I bought a second copy because I couldn’t stand the warbling.

I’ve got two loves
I’ve got two loves
And they go tweet tweet tweet tweet tweet tweet tweet tweet tweet
Like little birds


I have lots on my mind.

I have many projects.

I did some invoicing of clients and it’s nice to get money whether it’s a paper check mailed or a PayPal transmission.

I have David Byrne loudly in my ears as I write this.


My mind turns to drawing and my creations.

I have maybe 6 unfinished comics I want to do. One I think might be suitable for the IndieWeb Carnival prompt of “Affirmations” which I am hosting for the next 2-1/2 days, depending on how you count days as they count down.

If you have a website and/or blog you might consider submitting an entry: See Affirmations.


Yesterday’s Front End Study Hall was terrific. Lots to think about. It reminded me that one of the best ways to get a message out to the world is with a personal website. It’s not on a platform like Instagram or a Medium post or even penning an editorial for a newspaper. It’s to write, and to put it on a website.


Drawing. Thinking about Magma and Drawful and means to draw with someone from a thousand miles away. I have friends I like to draw with but they’re far away. And I want to draw with them. And the technical limitations are great. It’s still easier to have a safe space and and invite people over to sit at a table and draw. I think of San Diego Sketch Party. And Los Angeles and Nagoya and Sydney. And Long Beach Ink & Drink are wonderful. Super-wonderful. They use Magma to have some events online. I reread my post MAKE A MARK and I WANT THAT BACK.

Dr. Sketchy’s is — approximately — on hiatus.

This is from 2012 which is too long ago.

No San Diego event in a long while. I’ve been to a bunch. (Tag: #DRSKETCHYSD)


Today I added a page which defines my default coffee place order: /starbucks.

Also, James made a Starbucks page as well. We shall see if it gets adopted as a convention on slashpages.net.

And Paul made a /pizza page today!


I’ll leave you with another Cleverlys song: Loser.
