My karma is shot. I tried to corpse pose, but my tiny green island has
become blotched with some sort of beta fungus. It creeps in.

I feel your pain. I keep thinking that there is some sort of notice with
beta releases that especially warns new users from installing them,
listing the many reasons, followed by the caveat that IT IS NOT
OFFICIALLY SUPPORTED, ergo neither do we on this list. ...and those
words become written on a silk scarf that drifts off in a breeze of
"Claire De Lune", all tinkling and sparkley and my tiny green island
turns into a smoldering festering lump of old goat cheese. Forget
meditation, I'm going to go and kick a tree. I swear this guy is Karl.
