My current fixation -- Lo Moon's "Loveless" (2018). Not a wasted note in this song. Drum fills are fab. Their latest album is 2024's "I Wish You Way More Than Luck". My top 3 album tracks are "Honest", "Water", & "Day Old News".

Probably more a Bluesky issue & less your android, but couldn't hurt.

Judge is still a monster, but I get what you mean about surrounding him with a roster that maximizes his value, before he ages out. It's still a first place team.

Cheray is on this issue like stink on a monkey. Villah, Sierk, & several other challenge regulars are all experiencing the same glitches.

Stephin Merritt

From "The New Despair" EP (1997), this song is among the longer tracks on an otherwise quick listen. Goth rock meets synth pop, infused with Merritt's lyrical witticism.

It looks like you may be among the accounts whose posts aren't appearing in the challenge hashtags. I've placed no likes on any of your Fave15, and I've been through those replies regularly. Quite a few posters having this problem across the challenge hashtags.

Thanks! I'd have guessed he already had one. He played on some strong rosters.

I know the matchup didn't go the way you hoped, but the Yankees had me sweating when the series shifted to New York. Always feels extra tense. Tied for 1st. WC win. Present disappointment aside, Yanks had a great season.

It's incredibly well-crafted. More depth to the song than might be apparent of first listen.

For sure! Plus, I'm just a sucker for the song's melodic pulse. Norman's introspective writing is among his best work. Gerry's dreamy melodic songs complemented Norman's so well.

I remember getting this album for Christmas, hearing The Cabbage for the first time, & instantly falling in love with the song. Between the first two albums, it was my favorite track.

Fantastic scene (moving soundtrack moment here, too). This film, along with The Royal Tenenbaums, & Grand Budapest Hotel are probably my trifecta, but I adore them all.
