waiting in the mist

Many technical problems are all around. My focus is not one of them. Instead awaiting clarity, lucidity? Finding not a trace or whit of these signposts of well-reasoned argumentation? Or well-reasoning in general? Just a congealed mess of oil and badly expressed ideas or uncreative forces contriving to generate the worst possible dreck? And also to celebrate the worst possible dreck. Is there an elitist blog service? Is there a fine aesthetic to this? Of course you have the wannabe expats with their moleskines and their ludicrously incoherent pen preferences, which reside in blogs this way and yonder, but are these little complaints ever funneled into a coherent kind of proper graphology? Graphology is, I'm sure you're aware, a psuedoscience. Hands this way and that are supposedly the signposts of personality. But is there any morphological analysis of people' s hand anatomy and the way they write? It may exist. The point being that writing a sequence of personal and revealing commentaries and eccentricities about oneself does ought not give one the leisure to be shallow.
