Automatic

Recommended Posts

I get up in the morning
And take my bath
I turn off the heat
Take my meds

I head out for breakfast
Hit the Waffle House
They know what to cook
When they see me coming

It's Automatic
I don't feel anything
I just react
I go through the motions
It's Automatic
I'm a living machine
I plow through the day
With no emotion

Been an Internet prisoner
These last 10 years
Networking with friends
Around the world

When my posting's done
I'm back on the mattress
I don't like those dreams
Even a robot sleeps

It's Automatic
I don't feel anything
I just react
I go through the motions
It's Automatic
I'm a living machine
I plow through the day
With no emotion

That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
