https://billwurtz.com/questions/questions.html
so i wrote a question for you a while ago about if you suddenly had to use a walking stick, what it'd look like, or similar, but i just remembered today at 4 am that i asked this question. i looked at my pinned notes to find the exact question so i can find the answer easier, but its nowhere to be found. ive looked through the website so far at this point im almost certain it isnt real, but it still feel real. all of this happening reminded me of how when i was younger, i would often send messages to famous people, and always getting no reply. i always felt bad about it back then and i dismissed it because i was just a kid back then, though my strong frustration at something this small has proven thats still the case. i feel as though things like this are becoming more common, where peole tend to be much more isolated and reliant on creators nowadays. its this bizzare blend of "this is a real person" and "this is my ideal imagined friend i constructed based on this person's art", that ive seen so often on the internet. ?
the question was most likely from december 2, 2023, at 11:58 am, and it said "If you suddenly had to use a walking stick every day, what would it look like?". and the reason i probably didn't answer it is because it evoked the idea of sudden back or leg injury, which was above the level of mental trauma that i like to subject myself to on the questions page. the reason you couldn't find the question in your notes is probably just because you forgot to write it down

Why is nothing even a word when you know that nothing is a word, and it exists as something when it should be nothing?
words are not usually the thing they refer to. for example, the word "car" is usually not a car. words are used to talk about the potential for things to happen with cars, or perhaps different patterns of cars with nothing in between. this nothing, in this case, is actually extremely important because it helps the cars not bump into each other

I always think about journaling so I can figure things out and have some breakthroughs, but my thoughts are too swirly and incoherent to make any sense written down
that's because you haven't figured it out or had the breakthroughs yet. the reason for starting this is because of the swirling. as you start to just play a simple game of 'what do you know', or even preceding that just 'what do you want to know', you can get the process started

Y'know when people say a person has some skill "under his belt"? Is that supposed to be a reference to some kind of measuring contest or something??
