EDIT: This was just a small play at poetry as I wish I knew all of these languages but do not

Starbucks. They moved into my neighborhood and put a bunch of small business owners (cafes) out of business including one owned by a very good friend.

Nestle. obvs

Cocaine & Ketamine, but cutting it with something else, I know not what (tons of money?)

I love and donate to SomaFM.

I have been hooked on the ‘DroneZone’, but there are lots of other channels on SomaFM that I should explore.

There is very minimal interruption (hourly? and quietly) asking for donations.

AOL - ISP. Not sure order of operations here… I was also on Mozilla/Netscape (1991/92-?)

Bulletin Board Channels: There was at least one gay one in San Diego (ca. 1992-1995). We would chat and post online, then once a month, meet at a gay bar with name tags with our handles.

IRC - fun chat site (at least into 1997 for me)

LISTSERV - this was less useful for me. signing up for ‘reading lists’ or ‘subscriptions’ to ‘butterflies’ ‘sourdough’, etc. (I honestly do not recall the groups I signed on to) when no one really seemed to be there (1992-94?) though I didn’t move with the hip crowd

really? that sucks. really? i am genuinely so disappointed, jeez

I thought a ‘concierge program’ was similar to OneMedical. You pay an annual fee, have a PCP, but the PCP doesn’t typically do much besides refer you to specialists, give advice, or prescribe meds.
