Applying some graph theory to my weird math worm obsession, in a long thread over on birb site:
going to assume David Letterman will wake up shortly and be like "i dreamt i was some 40-something kid posting nonsense on something called mastodon" and Paul Schafer will look over with his 13 eyes and say "that's weird as hell" and then play a synth chord that ends the world
Dreamt I got book on Letterman for some funny songs I wrote, was worried about what to say on national TV, woke up, realized that (a) it was absurd to dream I'd been book on a talk show for basically shitposting and (b) why would I electively fly cross country during a pandemic? Then I got a text from a friend worried that they cancelled my spot on Letterman. Then I woke up and realized (a) that part was a dream to and (b) Letterman hasn't been doing Late Night for how long now?
Behold, Fogleworms. Inevitable crafty outcome of me obsessing about a math problem involving arranging "worms" the last few days, see big birb site thread:

Slack's having downtime
So come, me hearties
Let's talk of old days of
eye sea queue
Hand-coding websites
And long LAN parties
And drinking a barrel of
mountain dew
Oh ho the dreams we dreamt
Of lives spent at our computers
Oh ho the tears we've wept
For having our dreams come true
