SCALED ALPS 2.3: Viridian/Eschatone Pome
We BEGIN with a CONTRIVED IRRELEVANCE.
We’ll then move into another, resolving in one more.
Think of it as a “glitch in the simulation” if we must speak in cliches . . .
I appeal to you,
Implore you: HEY, CHECK IT OUT ⤴︎⤴︎⤴︎
It’s a new song!
To the extent that anything I write is “about” any - thing, “Chautauqua Kush” is about the magical air to be had in the coastal confines of Pacific Palisades, and the time spent recording “When It’s Time to Go” with cover-model Mike Z.
BOLD proclamations about ALL of this shortly forthcoming. Bullshitters’ honor.

NOW for our FEATURE PRESENTATION . . .

The hue of the light shifts, inverts. Shifts, inverts. Shifts, inverts.
Your breath comes in spurts, and so do you.

Proteus is pulling all its faces off again.

Bad habit. Old habit. OLD GODS. NEW TRICKS.
OLD GODS. NEW TRICKS.
Old habit. Bad habit.
Old habit. Bad habit. NEW GODS. OLD TRICKS.
NEW GODS. OLD TRICKS.
Bad habit. Old habit.
Now that we’ve cleared that up,

which — here, hang on —
I’d like to clear up a common misconception about how to pronounce ? ? ? ? ?,
OK:
So it’s pronounced “Five Questions,” sometimes abbreviated to “Fivequse” —
IT IS NOT “Five Marks” like a LOT of people been saying!!!!!!!!!!!
⚠️‼️‼️IT IS NEVER FIVE MARKS!!!!!!! STOP MAKING THIS ERROR‼️‼️⚠️
REAL FANS WILL KNOW that you are a TOTAL SCALPER and NOT AN ALPINIST AT ALL if you are not AWARE of this VERY BASIC FACT.
Furthermore, the way to pronounce my names is “carefully.”
NOW:
In boundless love for you we offer two (2)
fresh-baked treats from the heart of the reptilian realm.

Then Proteus is like:
WAIT WASN’T THERE A CRYPTIC WARNING?
And I’m, all, like: Oh, yeah. I forgot what I was doing, briefly . . .
Then Proteus is like:
WAIT IT SAYS “ONE MORE TIMES,” SHOULDN’T YOU FIX THAT?
And I’m, all, like: Oh, no. I know just what I’m doing, briefly . . .
Then Proteus is like:
And I’m, all, like:
