It's a holiday weekend. You're going to hit up a townie bar and need a break from family soon enough. Why not read [EDITOR'S NOTE: if you're on *Bluesky*, it's reread] our good friend Tim's now 10.5 year old story on arguably the greatest jukebox goof of all time www.vice.com/en/article/i...

To be fair, beginning my workday at 12:08 and appearing in public 39% less than usual is a GREAT sign for my composition career

The latest @xkcd.com made me a little emotional. I practically grew up with xkcd, I remember those anxious comics from fifteen years ago. It really has been all that time, hasn't it? What a beautiful thing to have time.

if there is one American value I really do pride myself on adhering to when I travel abroad, it is “I will enthusiastically try all of your local foods”

we should have literature in schools, students should have a chance to think seriously about it
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

The great thing about being a bard is that returning to ancient times would actually improve your wages
Trying to decide on a career for when the economy crashes and we return to the ancient times. I'm leaning toward soothsayer but I'm also open to banditry

Gender is a spectrum from just wanting have fun to being back in town, and to varying degrees, each of us contains attributes of both, which is a beautiful thing

And I hope when you think of me years down the line
You cant find one good thing to say
And I hope that if I found the strength to walk out
Youd stay the hell out of my way
I am drowning
There is no sign of land
You are coming down with me
Hand in unlovable hand
And I hope you die
I hope we both die
You cant find one good thing to say
And I hope that if I found the strength to walk out
Youd stay the hell out of my way
I am drowning
There is no sign of land
You are coming down with me
Hand in unlovable hand
And I hope you die
I hope we both die

Feeling good to go today, but god I hate not talking. I love talking. Talking's my favorite. Think I'm going to need to make myself a little sign to wear before the concert that says "attempting vocal rest, please tell me to shut up"
I'm so fucking sure I strained my stupid voice the day before the choir concert weekend
