_ (frick why don't the lefties show)

Ohhhh. Yeh.. !! right, left, faux Markdown took the lefties.
oUnderstood regardless!
 
(sorry was away, helping with some stuff in the house)
yeah seems to be the markdown
 
” wraparound hug “
 
"equal magnitude of hug, though different"

^ tied for best post-decency Betty Boop ever,
oOOOOOOO (not to infringe on coPyright) skip the first 2 or 3 minutes
The pre-decency Betty Boops are tied for better.
How would you like to be tied for better or worse‽
^ o wow, i picked that one because it has relatively clear lyrics.
 
7:56 AM
@humn I tried to fixate my eyes on betty boop, but unsuccessfully, because I kept wandering around looking at how great the animation was
 
@oAlt , ! Fleischer Studios
oAlt, you've already proven that you return to this scene of the crime given time.
 
Yea
 
"Your honor, given half the chance could i beg for time and a half off for good behavwer?"

The times I spend in puzzling are usually the calm before the storm of homework
 
. . . rush safely, a lot
 
.
 
Homework safely! With all my heart.
 
:D
 
. . .
Did i mention my first two forays into sidewalk ecology of my new coordinates netted a mask, handwarmers, legal weed, socks and an escort to the homeless shelter, all without charge?
All i had to say was "i'm a good person," which was the password at the previous coordinates. A universal password is "how're doing?" when repeated a few times with patient pauses. But it's actually the tone of voice as much as the words.

^ the caption hides my wet spot of two+ years.
The picture above was taken just minutes before i showed up for the day and night. Dog and i were there just to be nonjudgmental.
From sampling, not widely reported, those of us who can (it still ain't fair!) live year after year under the stars are not disease vectors.
I've never met someone with a casually communicable disease on sidewalks. The worst maladies are genetic or self-induced. Those whose immune systems as
much as allow even a cold to flourish, sadly, do not survive out in the open.
While under a delusion of safety, i introduced myself to a local officer, saying something like "My name's ~humn and you'll probably see a lot of me around here from now on."
They responded, "are you trying to get me into trouble?"

@humn the official term for the spacing between the letters is called kerning. perhaps a better title would be when kerning goes bad.
