hating the self's otiose

the "cultured" try to learn more about the "uncultured". it is what allows them to think they're better. reality packaged, filled plump with lies, like the truth hidden in sarcasm. everyone knows, it's just easier not to acknowledge. we all live in our own skewed version of reality. like them. i've never seen them so close to death, that's nothing new. though it could happen any day now, that is. and their conversations, their conversations aren't any more relevant. though they carry on like it's the best of all choices, or even better, like there are no other choices. acting as though they're in the right, always.

big love, i think it's called.

spoon feeding.

i read in the paper that researchers are testing a computerized pill dispenser for the elderly that autonomously alerts the user when it's time to take their medication. if they don't take their pills, the dispenser automatically notifies a nurse who routinely checks on them once per week.
