K.I.S.S. - Keep it simple stupid. I chat too much shit sometimes.
Here's a simple shape I love so much that I want to marry it for life, maybe. Circle and I have been engaged since 2023, but we're taking our time with planning the wedding.
Confession: I've never listened to the band KISS. Oh well. Let me know if I'm missing out? I've also never listened to A Perfect Circle.
Did you know there are competitions for freehand drawings of circles?
Becoming decent at drawing circles would be one way I could level up my celebrity status as a maths teacher, because... holy shit! Watch these guys go:
"This is something I do in my spare time. I, uh, draw freehand circles" - A. Overwijk (World Freehand Circle Drawing Champion)

Musically... there are many things that feel "circular" to me, but possibly nothing so much as Krautrock. Are we still allowed to call it that? Sorry Germans. I dunno what's going on anymore. I suspect using the term "Karen" is hella sexist too, even if I was describing myself.
Germans: I know you're not all kraut-eating Nazis and I even like some of you, but this album has recordings of Hitler's speeches in it, so we need to mention The War. Dunno what to say as a Cultural Critic. Let me start by saying I'm a big fan of sauerkraut. Great work on cabbage. Hitler was a flop, obviously. What else? This is "shit sandwich" style feedback where Hitler is the shit in the middle. Oh yea, duh--I think I'd dig the autobahn and I really love your propulsive circular music that I have no other name for yet. Germany, I'd like to spend more time with you to get to know you better beyond stereotypes, but for now simply know that Ich liebe dich. No, I did NOT say "I love dick" in German just there, but we all thought it. (?) It seems like your country's history would be a lot to reckon with and that's all German Oak were trying to do. As an American... .. well you know... .. we're big fuckups on human rights also. Reckoning ongoing. I think I've said enough to drop the album:
Here's GERMAN OAK s/t
PS - I've always thought tattoos were for posers but I considered getting a circle tattoo at the base of my shaved skull while psychotic as I feel/felt spiritually connected to the shape, or I imagined I was in The Matrix and wanted to mark my "unplug" point. I'll talk about spiritual geometry another day though mebbe. Shit's wild. Lol.
I now think about having The Circle tattoo on my left thumb, since I am on the LEFT HAND PATH in life ((Entombed album callback--go listen)) and I already branded my right thumb with a cross, for Jesus. It faded quick, but the left hand is mine. I don't think I need to promote J.C. People know he's baller. Motherfucker was the original zombie; hopefully I follow in his footsteps. My next door neighbour is a doppelganger--cool word, Germany!!--for Christ and I fancy him a little. Hope he never reads this. He's seen me naked already. Lol--awkward. Good thing I'm nudist adjacent in mindset at all times. Suck it, prudes.
I'm just going my own way, Jesus. Soz pal. You're still an inspiration. I'll keep reading Kierkegaard when my head's cleared out since Nabokov recommended big K. to me. The Bible was a bit too much like Shakespeare for my taste--I dunno wtf anyone in it is talking about?!? I'm sure it's brilliant, but I'd need a guide, and I prefer to be my own spiritual and literary guru. My plan is to wait until I see another Total Solar Eclipse to decide which version, if any, of my circular tattoo designs I want. For a simple shape, I have quite a few ideas in mind now cos I'm prolific with any bullshit I get into for a minute. [[[Like blogging... cough cough]]]]
Btw, I'm mostly kidding about judging people for having tattoos... they can be cool/beautiful... I've just never felt I wanted anything inscribed on me before? It's a personal thing. There's something I like about being a blank slate I think, but I'm not overly attached to that either. I don't need to be a Pristine Condition corpse--I just never 'got it' about tattoos. I love all your scars, wrinkles, moles, and 'imperfections' people... they make you look amazing. Truly. Your tattoos I can take or leave.
[[[Important announcement: don't steal my title for your daft projects, assholes. I've pissed on it first, OK? lollll]]]
The name of my next book will be:
"The Path of Totality"
In honor of the apocalyptic wonder of witnessing the world's Big Light go completely out. Omg. You should all try to see it. It'll blow your tiny mind. I'm going to rent a giant villa somewhere in Spain or wherever the path of totality is in Aug 2026 and you're all invited if you want ❤️
