Pony size, says the 12-year-old.

It's the 23rd day of the month of September. The Rapture is NOT what I'm worried about.

Keith David's "Friends on the Other Side" seals the deal all by itself.

The government telling schools and leagues to bar trans players is pretty much the exact opposite of sports leagues making their own rules.

But my favourite is "The Last Drink." If I had a band, I'd do this one every night.

I'm a bit fond of "Family Tree" myself, though I can't find a YouTube link for it.

Not sure it quite fits the genre, but "Twin Town".

At least you scored a curried chicken. I still have nightmares about the steak and kidney pudding.

My personal beef is words that *are* answers for the NYT Crossword and *are not* answers for the NYT Spelling Bee.

I mean come on people, do you even TALK to each other over there?

Emma Goldman has thoughts:

At the dances I was one of the most untiring and gayest. One evening a cousin of Sasha, a young boy, took me aside. With a grave face, as if he were about to announce the death of a dear comrade, he whispered to me that it did not behoove an agitator to dance. Certainly not with such reckless abandon, anyway. It was undignified for one who was on the way to become a force in the anarchist movement. My frivolity would only hurt the Cause. I grew furious at the impudent interference of the boy. I told him to mind his own business. I was tired of having the Cause constantly thrown into my face. I did not believe that a Cause which stood for a beautiful ideal, for anarchism, for release and freedom from convention and prejudice, should demand the denial of life and joy. I insisted that our Cause could not expect me to become a nun and that the movement would not be turned into a cloister. If it meant that, I did not want it.
