I have signed up for a small community college program I'll talk about sometime later maybe, and it has an online component. It's been about fifteen years since I last had to deal with student-facing software for colleges, and I am sorry to say that Canvas is still absolute dogshit.

Once a friend and I were chatting and walking into a record store in Northampton, Massachusetts, when we ran into David Crosby on his way out (literally. *thump*). We didn't recognize him, hastily apologized, and then a minute or so later were like "Wait, was that David Crosby?" Yes, it was.
Right folks. Feeling rather down at the moment so bringing back an oldie

Tiny Tim, who DID NOT die, fled through the desert while the gunslinger followed.
O! do not die, for I shall hate
All women so, when thou art gone,
That thee I shall not celebrate,
When I remember thou wast one.
John Donne was such an obsessive emo kid, writing twisty phrases that wrapped around themselves in order to be weird about whoever he was into. 1/

Which lines of poetry live rent-free in your head?
Dylan Thomas, Do mot go gentle into that good night (most of it) & part of Delmore Schwart’s “Calmly we Walk Through this April’s Day”

Not to defend Whole Foods or anything, but instead of tedious Christmas music, the WF in Sunnyvale appears to be leaning hard into yacht rock. There are worse things than Christopher Cross to chill to whilst picking up mildly overpriced produce.

It’s just about Bandcamp Friday again, so here’s my EP. Clangs and droney atmosphere. My attempt at modular shoegaze, which was not shoegaze but was pretty cool anyway.

So I'm trying very hard to finish the last bits of Silksong in the next 5 days or so because I know once Power Wash Simulator 2 arrives I'll probably just play that while blissfully sinking into the couch for weeks.
(I'll take breaks for Hades 2, but honestly PWS2 is my big game of 2025.)

The NYT Spelling Bee word lists typically include English words, Hawaiian words (but not all Hawaiian words!), random slang the editor thinks is words and items on the menu at Indian restaurants.
The decisions about what to include and what not to include are often confounding.

I think I wouldn't mind AI results on my searches and stuff like Facebook if it wasn't always so insultingly stupid. Under a comic strip: "What's the story of this comic strip?" is a suggested question. On a lyric search: "You seem to be mistaken. That song is not by [foo]."
