I keep a running list of things I want to write about on RG. Some of the things I jot down never end up turning into posts either because I jotted them down in the middle of the night and they make no sense in the light of day, or because I realize that they’re terrible and/or tragically mortifying ideas. As an example of the latter, one of the notes in my phone right now says, “Order Thinx period underpants & test-run for post.” This does not seem like an especially advisable life choice.
The post ideas that give me the most trouble, though, are the ones that I like but don’t really merit a full-length post, or the ones that I like but have no idea how to talk about in long-form without sounding even weirder than I usually do. Except my current list of cool stuff I want to mention is getting annoyingly long, and I’m starting to realize that I’m not going to suddenly be struck with an elegant way to introduce the topic of, say, foot-shaving, because an elegant way to introduce the topic of foot-shaving does not exist.
So here we go. Five things I’m all about right now that have absolutely nothing to do with each other save for the fact that you really need to know about them all.
