It really does beg for further research! 😅

What did they think POTATO CHIPS were made of? 🤷‍♀️ Who the fuck knows.

Sarah 🍕 @sarahv.dftba.social · 1h

Aww, what a friend. Does he need directions to Sesame Street or summat? We're here for them. 🫂

Sarah 🍕 @sarahv.dftba.social · 10h

Somehow this was the news article that made me give up all hope. Bring on the asteroid.

A news headline that reads "Lay's drastically rebrands after disturbing finding: 42% of consumers didn't know their chips were made out of potatoes"

At the Philharmonic for Boulez et al. I think my friend Sae is playing in that group up there? Guessing from her IG story pic from the rehearsals 🤔 Super cool that she is playing tonight and that I actually have a view of her spot! They have little groups all over the venue for one piece tonight.

A photo of the interior of the NY Philharmonic looking toward the rear. There are some music stands in a few spots in the rear balcony and I have circled one of them in red. I am sitting in the second balcony on the side.

Poor little buddy! Hope it gets better soon.

I've heard of yarn bombing, but...

Oh what a bummer! I've never managed to catch him live but heard he does a great show.

Hope you feel better soon.

That bastard!

Sarah 🍕 @sarahv.dftba.social · 1d

I bet. Like spelling my name "Sara."

Sarah 🍕 @sarahv.dftba.social · 1d

This month I'm planning on attending concerts including:
Boulez 'Rituel' with L.A. Dance Project
A counterculture marching band festival
An all-Arvo Pärt show at Carnegie Hall ft. Midori
A three-day free pop-up festival featuring a brand new MacArthur genius
And more!

We're all soooooo bored 😅

Hank Green @hankgreen.bsky.social · 1d

I heard someone on a podcast say that music is boring now and, look, I am saying this as kindly as I can…skill issue.

Sarah 🍕 @sarahv.dftba.social · 1d

Oh no he spelled "Beanedict" wrong!

I mean it's pretty hard to spell so I get it

(it's very cool congratulations)

They don't have work requirements for their health insurance, I guess.

Chris Murphy @chrismurphyct.bsky.social · 1d

I'm sorry but it's just wild we are in the middle of a government shutdown and the House Republicans are REFUSING TO SHOW UP FOR WORK so they can protect billionaire pedophiles and billionaire tax breaks.

Sarah 🍕 @sarahv.dftba.social · 1d

Most of the shows I go to are less than $40. You should try listening to extremely unpopular music like me 😄 I was just complaining to a friend that a show we wanted to go to tonight was $35 for the best seats.

The fact that you are communicating information online implies the existence of your surprise and/or shock. That's just science.

And they want me to do physical therapy in re: the new diagnosis which is going to suck and I hate it. 🥲

Sarah 🍕 @sarahv.dftba.social · 1d

Thank you. Mostly just crummy medical stuff. A new diagnosis on Monday that is a real bummer, and a really bad appointment yesterday that I'm upset about. Nothing truly horrible but just a real drag of a week and feeling pretty down about everything.

Sarah 🍕 @sarahv.dftba.social · 1d

This is one of those times when they actually need to stop and think "what would Jesus do?" because pointing a gun into the pews ain't it.

Sarah 🍕 @sarahv.dftba.social · 1d

Like some 22-year-old with a copy of the entire Social Security database deciding he needs money? Yeah

Sarah 🍕 @sarahv.dftba.social · 1d

Having a really bad week and I had to make an emergency homemade bacon egg and cheese sandwich to try and rescue the vibe.

They say playing Tetris will help you stave off PTSD, I think a BEC will stave off existential despair.

You posted it on Mastodon last week 😅

🥨👀

Sarah 🍕 @sarahv.dftba.social · 1d

Do they often award the prize to people who randomly murder people on fishing boats, or is that disqualifying?

Sarah 🍕 @sarahv.dftba.social · 2d

It's finally jacket weather!!! 🥳

Sarah 🍕 @sarahv.dftba.social · 2d

LOL. I guess that makes sense!

I just looked up popularity of baby names in my birth year, and Matthew is even more popular than Sarah. I feel like we're everywhere, so I guess that explains it.

Sarah 🍕 @sarahv.dftba.social · 2d

And here he is talking to two Sarahs. We can't really complain.
