Still too quirky and eclectic, but I stand behind my last 24 plastic alto posts rolling or scrolling* into the new year like a lion flyin’ on the back of a yak into two-naught^two-six

*sometimes trolling I admit: i wrote a regrettable letter once to Linda Perry calling her a sellout (after she either compared me to Al Pacino OR said that like Al Pacino she never forgets a face and “that’s what’s up”

Ought” as a number means zero (0), often seen in pronunciations like “thirty-aught-six” for the .30-06 rifle or the “aughts” (2000s), but it’s easily confused with the verb “ought” (should) and the word “aught” (anything/zero), stemming from misinterpretations of “naught” (nothing) and its similar sound. While “aught” can mean “anything,” it’s frequently used for “zero” in American English, especially in specific technical or historical contexts, despite “nought” being the more traditional word for zero. “Naut” is a coinage implying nothing but also rain and general nautiness
