Friend's memorial is this afternoon, at a local bar. 1st thing I ask is if I should get food sorted (grief+booze+empty stomach=bad time). Find out that it's being covered by a caterer, but what about deserts? Which is why I made both fudge and brownies last night.

Saw this on tumblr with the comment of how funny it would be If _It_ Happened on the 11th of June/6th of November

There are no allergies quite like the allergies from pulling boxes out of deep storage and sorting through to catalogue the contents. I got vintage particles in my lungs, y'all.

THINK WE COULD MAKE SOMETHING SPECIAL

We often talk about older generations pulling up the ladder behind them, but it's still a bit rare to see such a cartoonishly clear example of someone doing just that - and wistfully, no less! If you treat institutional knowledge as fixed, & not a garden to be tended to and grown, you will fail.

Every so often, we get reminded of how awful the US healthcare system is by having it utterly fail someone we care about, to the point of death. Apparently yesterday was one of those days, and I'm never going to stop being fucking mad about it and scared for the people in my world.

Finally having a chance to listen to this fully front to back, and it fucking rips. Hello new workout/getting shit done mix. The Dragula and Thieves remixes are a fucking delight. [also, Ohota at 41:35!]
