Spent another good chunk of the day learning Framer. I haven't been this jazzed about making a website in a while. But then the smarter person entered the room: "Dad, are you STILL working on that?" my son asked. Point taken - Dad should be playing with the kids. Laptop, closed.

Here's a movie that should have done much better at the box office. Maybe not enough people understood it? I'm basically the water guy in my relationship, so I got it at least. Love can overcome A LOT. More than you'd think.

This is why audiophiles do their homework, no matter who it is, because this isn't a heel turn. It's who she's been the entire time. Just another one in it for themselves; she won't even represent Trinidad.

Dave Willat was just 11 years old when he showed up for what he thought would be a routine church choir practice in 1965. He and his fellow singers ended up making history. n.pr/3KZCl3a

A Plea, by Flea is the absolute best thing I've heard in a decade. This is my vibe and, amen brother, I don't want to hear about your fucking politics; peace and love is the toughest, hardest thing you can do, everything besides love is cowardice.
