Caveat that I haven't had my breakfast not coffee yet, but I am less than one hour in the office after being out (granted, it was for work) yesterday and I am ready to call it a day bc I don't want to deal with people and their questions.
...
And now I'm going to go have food 😅

Tempted fate and watched about 50 minutes of I LIKE ME (the John Candy doc) but ended up sandwiching it around the Brett Goldstein comedy special in between so did a good amount of laughing and no tears (yet. Gonna have to finish the doc when I get home)

Have a good Tuesday ducks.
It's almost time for me to fly away home and so I'm sending out good wishes to you for the day.
I hope good things arrive to you, that things that can be left behind are and that obstacles are smaller than they appear.
You've got this. Rooting for you!!

I was trying to make a post re how this hit me in particular today bc of a convo in a group I haven't been as participatory in for a couple of years bc some ppl did make me feel weird (only that weirdness is cool now...)
But what matters is y'all matter here and I thank you for being my people 🫶🏻

The thing about not sharing your weirdness because of fear you will be rejected is that you sort of just end up surrounded by people you don't feel understood by, because they're attracted to the Normal performance. You have to just weird everyone out and see who fuck with it

This is deeply, deeply fucked.
In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties.
The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized.
