MS MR- “Think Of You” One of my favorite songs to vent to. “I still think of you and all the shit you put me through. And I knew you were wrong. Dark clouds follow you around, Your own worst enemy. You only picked me up to bring me Down, down, down, down.” youtu.be/47iXIEkNYvM?...

This guy is now 41 years old. And the only cooking he does on stream now has to do with slime alien innards and barfing dinosaurs. So yeah, he hasn’t changed a bit. Happy Birthday @vinny.vinesauce.com youtu.be/RS3k1NhD4qM?...

I still love the theory a Year 6 child proposed to me that David Attenborough is actually God and he got fed up with people not noticing the amazing things he'd created, so he made documentaries to show off.

Ancestry‘s website just informed me that I am related to Katherine Hepburn and I am feeling mighty proud about that fact. I also was told that I am related to Louisa Mae Alcott so the fact that Hepburn started in a version of “Little Women” is pretty appropriate. youtu.be/EdYNtGEhb2Y?...

The Cult- “She Sells Sanctuary” Because it’s good. youtu.be/ZCOSPtyZAPA?...

Summer Camp- “Losing My Mind” Always really enjoyed this duo. youtu.be/lWcMEyFOA1g?...

DJ Kool ft. Biz Markie & Doug E. Fresh- “Let Me Clear My Throat” One of the best hooks to a song ever. I don’t like that much hip hop, (I’m more of an indie/alternative/rock girl) but this one, I like. youtu.be/gnsqvz9iIlA?...

Crowded House- “When You Come” Crowded House has been a part of my life for decades now and this song still mystifies me. Been really enjoying it recently. Again. youtu.be/LUP3XOa3yRs?...

Surf Curse- “Freaks” I have had this song stuck in my subconscious for over a week. Every once in a while it bubbles over and I start singing it out loud. youtu.be/NfMegACVJQw?...

So does this mean that these are two things our generation will be defined by? Is that what you are trying to say?

Since they have “take your kid to work day”, can they have a “take your retired, elderly, disabled parent to work day”? Sometimes I get real tired of being td my job is ”sooooo easy”.

Trying out a ”cozy romance” to help even out some more intense reading I’m doing otherwise and I’m still not sure the genre is for me. Something tells me that Iris from “The Strawberry Patch Pancake House” and I have different standards for men.

Today I learned that my Livejournal is of legal age; well technically that plus a year. Oh my.

Five (5ive)- “It’s The Things You Do” Sometimes I really like a good pop song. and this is actually one of them. While Backstreet Boys remain my favorite boy band to this day, Five had a few really good tracks. Trust me, it’s good! youtu.be/GfnxxiPqrE0?...

Last week my Ancestry profile me that Louisa May Alcott was one of my distant cousins and this week it’s telling me that I’m cousins with Carole Lombard. Kinda cool if it’s true.

The New Pornographers- “Stacked Crooked” Sometimes I forget that this album came out over twenty years ago. I also forget that they have new music that I need to catch up on. Kinda tough though when they already have so much music that you love. youtu.be/Q2w5YnOTOQ4?...

Billy Talent- “Try Honestly” Just watched their acceptance speech for The Juno Humanitarian Award. Very nice sentiments. Growing up close to the border, the radio played their songs a lot. This one in particular. youtu.be/_zssP6w0VWQ?...

The Kinks' Dave Davies hits back at Moby for calling "Lola" transphobic

@redvoxband.com - “Cemetery Window” Band member and songwriter @vinny.vinesauce.com likes to call this album “sad white boy music” but I’m not sure he knows how much other people identify with it. Those who aren’t “sad, white, boy”(s). From a sometimes anxious, white, girl youtu.be/si-UWEWP_n4?...

Went ahead and talked about AI in writing and publishing (aka, that Shy Girl shit), and the perhaps unseen perniciousness of how AI can utterly fuck up the fidelity of our information environment --

Liam Finn- “Neurotic World” Tried to pick a song to match the current mood. Been having more of my intense dreams recently. Last night’s involved, among other things, a floating cloud ad machine for doughnuts; breaking and falling from the sky, spewing doughnuts as it did youtu.be/Kwwxq_rPX6A?...
