The chill of an autumn morning is not enough to prompt wearing a coat.
The birds singing don't appear hampered by the lack of special winter plumage.
A short sleeved shirt is all that is needed when walking briskly.
Mind you, the birds don't do much walking.
Briskly.
That makes it sound rather formal.
It's a walk, it's quick.
Briskly.
That feels pompous and overblown, like a collection of ill-matched words in a Tory leader's speech.
Brusque, filled with the air of meaning, when the reality is it's just full of air.
Perhaps it isn't just air.
I'm going to stop walking briskly.
I don't want even a vague interpretation of my bodily characteristics associated with those people and their weird values.
Even if that interpretation is only in my head.
Tomorrow my walk will be quick, not brisk, and have an international feel.
I may even choose to include some tango steps.
It will entertain me and be multicultural.
Here's a picture of the early morning sky, unfortunately it doesn't include the birdsong.

Large shelf, small SSD.
Don't sweat the detail, go higher.
It's not about the detail of MLC or SLC.
Does it work, how long will it work for, how much?
And check that it isn't so clunky as to have a drive belt.
Or is that air-conditioning units?

A collection of words to represent some things.
Some of the things are concepts.
Some of the things are physical objects.
And then there are other things which are neither.
The grunt of a sow as it pops out another piglet for the litter.

This high-definition satellite image of an octopus shows some interesting detail.
It appears clear that the beast has been in some sort of accident or fight.
The missing appendages are the clue there, with only four of them left it is perhaps more aptly named a half-octopus.
And on further close inspection it could be that this was no accident, the remaining appendages have been modified.
A cybernetic half-octopus?
Not so much use at being either an oct or a puss.
Who would do such a thing?
And why?
All I know is that the Tory party conference is taking place in Birmingham, land of canals.*
This watery access gives easy release of mindbogglingly stupid experiments directly into the sea.
Perhaps as well as fucking up the country with their dim-witted brexit 'plans' they're fucking over cephalopod molluscs too.
Supreme self-confidence and entitlement brings delusion, driven on by the heady fuel of power.**
This is our future, to be half arsed, cybernetic gimps of the privileged elite, dancing to the tunes of their press baron masters.***
* Can waterways be included in that description "land of"?
** Pretty certain this applies to the most of the Tory cabinet - the Dunning-Kruger effect.

I've been a miner for a knob of gold
These expressions
I never give
That keep me searching for a knob of gold
Or failing that brass will do, it just has to match the others*

We're rolling.
And here we are in a field, the usual operatives being unavailable for comment we have activated some stand-ins.
To the casual observer these stand-ins have the appearance of a familiar type of livestock.
On further inspection it will be revealed that they are actors wearing very heavy make-up.
Thespians are often used in these situations.
This is due to their great number, and even greater likelihood of availability due to lack of work.
You may have heard actors refer to this lack of work as 'resting', this is a complete misnomer however.
The word 'resting' implies that there is some sort of tiring nature to their original work.
Ho, ho, ho.
That's enough ridiculing actors, I am being completely unfair, it's a tricky job but someone has to do it.*
* Actors are often very insecure and likely to take even the slightest comment, or 'note' as they might call it, very seriously and literally.
