I'd catalogue the enormous time grenades that have been launched into my life over the past three weeks, but that'd be like throwing you, dear reader, in the path of the shrapnel.

I asked Perplexity AI if I was "losing it" this week because I was dragging and depressed and despairing. It told me my reaction to such a heavy load of social and family commitments on top of a full-time job is normal and I'd be fine as long as I blocked off a week or two to decompress and didn't start entertaining thoughts of self-harm. 

*"Start"* entertaining thoughts of self-harm? Dude, that train left the station a long time ago, before the days when Tucker Carlson and Hunter Biden were great friends. Heck, I would've mutilated myself by now, except I didn't want all the hospital visitors.

The Daily Eudemon has a Telegram channel. It's not the greatest thing of all time, but it doesn't suck either. If you enjoy TDE's "Best of the Week's Digitalia," you can get sneak previews here.

As of yesterday, I knew it'd be difficult to get this column done, but I was hoping my mainstay, Nellie Bowles, would bail me out with good script. Her [**T.G.I.F.**](https://www.thefp.com/w/nellie-bowles?hide%5Fintro%5Fpopup=true&ref=thedailyeudemon.com) has become my favorite weekly column. 

Alas, she played to her leftist side and all its technocratic eugenical proclivities. There were far too many distractions for me to get into it: references to her "wife," praising AOC for freezing her eggs, defending data centers. 

Don't get me wrong, it was still a good column and filled with the stuff sane people appreciate--mocking Cambridge, Amnesty International, and other bastions of idiocy; marveling at Lenin's DSA; giving the pandemic response yet another well-deserved kick (to wit, on an average day, 10% of young adults have zero in-person contact . . . the figure used to be under 4%); smirking at Karen Bass, LA, pretty much everything that is California today. 

But on the Bowles' scale, it was mediocre, and I'm out of time to get this column posted. 

So I'll wrap up this Genital Clamp edition with digitalia:

TIL: The University of Wisconsin in 2001 photoshopped a black guy into their student section so they could use it for a college catalog. (Not verified, but I trust the source.)
