Yak Yak

This could be a long one. I hope they’re still going, and I’m expecting to have a list of games that are good with words. I’ve no idea what any of them are. I doubt that I’ll be chased by yaks, though that’ll be interesting if that does happen. I like the concept of saying it to play it, though it should have recognised that I haven’t played before. I’m presented with a list of jazzy theme tunes including celebrities or Deal or no Deal. I thought that it was Voice of the Dead but it turns out that it was of the day. I recognised the voice and got it right on the first go. I now rank about 1 in 189,000-something, and I can come back tomorrow to improve my leaderboard. Until then, I’ve got another game to choose. I’ve actually played the others that it’s suggested before. The next batch of games involves a subscription which I deny, before heading onto a quiz.

The Amazing Spiderman 2

This film had a bit more umph than its predecessor, though introducing Harry as a supervillain took a bit of time and didn’t give the Goblin enough screen time. I also thought that Gwen’s graduation speech was a bit morbid. I like how he tries to be friends with the bad guys first. But you’d think that Richard Parker would want to destroy his work rather than hide it away. It’s also strange how all of this science is conveniently locked up in a skyscraper in the middle of a populous city. The grand reveal of Spiderman’s identity to Harry is a little underwhelming, and there’s little evidence available to see how he reaches this conclusion. I was also hoping that Aunt May would discover the secret. It’s also strange how everyone is connected to one company, though it does explain how Peter can be friends with Harry. But at least the legacy is protected which confines Peter to the city.

Erasure

Something is trying to change. It’s stopped the world around it to make it happen. Is it going to change the outcome of the game that we’ve just played? Will there be draughts on the table in place of chess pieces and a different boxed game on the sofa? The colours in the room could change as a result of different people not being around to make the decisions. Some of the colours on the mantelpiece have already begun to change. Or she could be frozen in time while everything around her ages. The pictures will stay the same, though they might attract dust, and time will tell if the plant in the corner is real or not. Much of the furniture will stay the same, though the colour of the ceiling might be a little greyer. Maybe the view through the mirror will give us a glimpse of the future.

Police bodycam footage shows Tiger Woods' arrest

Oh, how the mighty have fallen. They think they get away with it and state that they need time to recover, but they still have to face the consequences of the law. And now you can watch the moment of the arrest and judge for yourself if you really want to. Of course they’re not going to confess in the mainstream media. They don’t want to upset any current financial endorsements that they have already. At first glance, he looks defiant and that he’s taking the pose of a survivor and that he’s not scared. It’s hard to tell with sunglasses masking his eyes. He might even be taking the knee. It’s nothing extraordinary compared to other videos. Perhaps it’s to reassure people that he will be treated well. But it’s going to be hard to him to work his way back to the top and he has to hope that some people still believe in him.

Dizzy

The world is being torn down. It’s like a special effect out of Doctor Strange. The trees outside have merged to form a green plastic slide. And my head is spinning. I’m not sure it’s because of the high blood pressure or all the responsibility that I’m supposed to be dealing with. It looks like I’m about to drop down into a pit. Everything’s being soaked into the window and all I can take in from that direction is a blinding light. The walls have also closed in. I don’t remember the room being that small. Who’s going to pull me out? That rope could be a safety bar if I can reach it. I could use it to swing to safety o the other side of the room. Everyone else thinks I’m bananas as they can’t see the world collapse. But perhaps they can help me to keep me stable.

Clean-Up #dreamdiary 218

I’m sitting around a large oval table. It’s supposed to seat eight people but there’s twelve of us. Some of us are sharing chairs. We’ve just celebrated a great final night of our festival but there’s a bigger day that awaits us tomorrow. Our primary objective is to clear everything down. We don’t only have the festival to take down; we’ve got to pack our own equipment away and we’ve got to get the public off site too. There’s still some vendors who want to trade tomorrow to cook breakfast for the campers, who won’t be early risers. Then we’ve got to sort between the rubbish, useful stuff that’s been abandoned and stuff that we think belongs to someone who’s not here. We have to do all this while people are out with their families enjoying the rest of the site. We see people we recognise from school with miniature versions of themselves on bikes while we’re wandering around with black bags.

The Scar

It causes extra light to shine into other places as it dominates the space that it occupies. There’s a bit of fuzz as it’s started to affect the air around it. If you put an object into it, you won’t be able to see it and there’s no guarantee that it will return. It’s strange that there’s an end to its vertical axis but not its horizontal one. I wonder where it ends. Could it just be in the household or is it a ring around the world? Or is it just a bit of magic and someone’s got a long line of black hankies tied together? It might even be a swarm of microscopic bees on the hunt for food or being forced to flee from their hive. It looks like the majority of them are heading in the same direction but some are breaking away to explore alternative options for the hive.
