Need a pick me up? Try this one. Alanis Morissette singing one of the most unabashedly joyful and happy songs of her entire catalogue. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dn6I...

Also also... I don't need a milkshake. Why, you ask? Because I know how to bring the otters to the yard. XD #FEESH

Watch this. Ya gonna love my nuts. XD No, for real though. Nut crusted Cod. 1/2 cup crushed pistachios and same amount breadcrumbs. Sauté that all up with shallot and garlic. Brush the fish with a mix of plain yogurt and egg yolk as the "glue" - put on the nut mixture and bake. Delicious.

In the continuing vein of "Souper" Saturday. 1 of my favorites. I had made other variations of clam chowder before this and they never hit the spot. This one though. SO good. Thick, rich, got the right amount of chonk...delicious. www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-...

On reddit just now saw a post asking good song for a funeral. Without missing a beat, this was the first thing I thought of. No vocals - just Cantrell's eerie guitar, some strings, and it sounds both achingly sad and like a happy farewell all at once. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGQu...

Listening to some 2006 Beck and man? He really ought to link up w/Nigel Godrich again. Make like...a spiritual sequel to The Information. Call it "The Education" or something like that. I have no idea how it would sound but, could be good, you know?

I just a wee snowball doin' my mlems.

It's always nice to do the weekly weigh and see I've gone down, but occasionally the number drops so much I'm all "Should... I be worried? Should I be getting checked for a friggin' tapeworm or something?" Because the sheer speed of weight loss just seems physically impossible.

Just havin' a nice SLEP.

Among those, this OceanLab + Armin Van Buuren mix of "Sky Falls Down" music.youtube.com/watch?v=fMei...

It weirds me out at times to stare at this giant folder full of techno and adjacent mixes that back in the 00's I was bumping on a regular but current day me is all why are these still here? And YET... I still don't want to get rid of them in SPITE of that.

Also IMHO these are her 2 best tracks. "Set Fire To The Rain" - because it blends her voice well along with a heavy, bombastic instrumental backdrop. "Hello" - because it steers away from that last one a bit and just lets her voice soar alongside a much more restrained backdrop.

I would LOVE to see Adele live sometime before I die. Oh well, I'll yet y'all know if I suddenly stumble across $34309468430968309580935 dollars or something........

But I am le tired.

Nothing like deciding to skip something because you realize "Hey, self? You're just Charlie Brown in this scenario, and they are SO Lucy, and do you WANT to run up to kick the football and fall on your ass? No, you don't."

Do I even want to know? Oh who the fuck am I kidding, of COURSE I want to know.

Nah, it's either death or a lie. Ask Eddie GladOS, I'm sure it can tell you. XD

What has 2 thumbs and hit the OFF button instead of the snooze button today and woke up all SHIT it's am what the SHIT OW JEEZ NO OW AAAAAH!!!! THIS GUY! Y'all just excuse me while I run around in a panic trying to catch up oops LOL BRB.

Need a pick me up? Late 90's Gloria Estefan can help with that. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRZj...

You know that whole thing where someone covers a song and it feels like "Yeah, no, THEY own this one now." because of how bloody GOOD it is. ZERO shade to Fleetwood Mac but yeah, The Highwomen pulled that off here for sure. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jVLN...

Imagine Dragons get a lot of (well deserved) flack for what they turned into eventually. (essentially, they Maroon 5'd themselves, to invent a phrase.) But there was a time they still remembered how to make simple catchy upbeat pop rock. This is an example. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pPTH...

AAAH I am SO glad he mentioned that sodding WIND-WISP objective marker bullshit which was exactly what I found so fucking annoying that I just dropped out and gave up on this game's predecessor. It's just SO BAD.

And on today's edition of "Things foxes bought because coyotes talked it up about cool bands they like" here this is. XD

1st world furry problems. I have a guy locally who I can get art plaque-mounted by...but I don't think I could give him, well... THIS particular item or similar. I need to find an alternative who doesn't mind smut. XD (Although for all I know, he might say whatever, it's still money, bring it!)

I mcFuckin' REMEMBER when it was that cheap. Oh hi, fossil fox here, nice to meet you. Can I interest you in a cold frosty Tab?

Mo. Ther. FuuuuuuuuuOMG

I wish my brain would actually conjure up witty zingers at, you know - THE MOMENT THEY WOULD ACTUALLY LAND. Instead of a third rate Costanza move, all 3 years later like "Yeah, well, the JERK STORE called, and they're running out of you!" Like - Brain? No. That's not how it works.

Also 1 of the few bands where you actually HEAR it. Can't even begin to list the # of bands who HAVE a talented bassist but...the way their studio cuts are mixed, you'd never know they were there in the first place.

I dunno, it looked better in my head #BROKtheInvestiGator

Update. Listened to this today while I was working and... me like. Me very much like. This is the kind of music I imagine listening to while out in the middle of the desert, after dark, splayed out on the ground, staring up at the sky, relaxed and content.

WELP. Already super high deductible on my medical is going up again next year. But please, tell me again how health insurance employees CLEARLY get magical free everything coverage or whatever the fuck. Then, please engage the services of a proctologist to help remove your HEAD FROM YOUR ASS.

Red Rocks Colorado will forever be 1 of my "bucket list" venues. I have no idea what band I might end up seeing there, but there's just...something about the idea of being able to hear your favorite band live surrounded by gorgeous natural features that is just *chef's kiss* beautiful.

So we have 1 of these downstairs on the cold line to the washing machine that has a slow leak - tried replacing the fixtures, tried different hose, no dice. Reached the frustration level of wanting to Nat'sWhatIReckon style solve it by: Fill it with gasoline, set it on fire and fuck it off. XD

The idea that 1 of the 3 coworkers I interact with most often definitely voted for her... is enough to make me want to puke. Disgusting. www.mediaite.com/media/tv/rep...

Saw a post on an LJ forum back in the day (early 2003) and asked the guy "Hey, what's the deal with the sleepy eyed wolf icon?" And the rest, as they say, is history.

💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

NYPD announces that zero arrests were made at the massive No Kings protests today after Republicans spent days claiming the protestors are violent terrorists.

This reminds me of why I abandoned every vacation idea I had this year. Sure in 2019, a solo trip to NM to do hiking was fun, but now? All my ideas just feel hollow...because I would have been doing them alone. And the "anyone who'd want to join me lives in friggin' Narnia" curse is also there.

IDK what is up with this whole thing I keep seeing I'll share a response warmly acknowledging a mutual enjoyment of [thing] and talking about it a bit, and in response I get "Uggh, ok, fine, could you stop BOTHERING ME already you annoying JACKASS!" in response. Just...what the actual fuck?

Why yes I would fancy a delicious paelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelleelle www.youtube.com/shorts/rJzpw...

First off YAY THIS HAS A VIDEO OMG www.youtube.com/watch?v=b2o7... Second AAAA THE VERY END IS SO WHOLESOME I'M #DED

Y'all may be out there Halloween-ing but in my head I've already skipped ahead to "Ah yes, the time of year where I can bust THIS one out." XD music.youtube.com/watch?v=AMUV... Yo-ho seeending Christmas cards Aw geez look at this one light goes out THEY ALL GO OUT!

5 Now Dog 5 forever.

Eh screw it instead of FCF a brief h0rny on main interlude WITH a cloaking device activated, in the form of stuck this image behind a filter so if you are 5000% not interested, please keep scrolling. XD A continuation / expansion on a reply to 1 of @nitrofox.bsky.social posts from yesterday.

Ha ha I got your wallet loser I'm off to buy chicken tendies for all my friends, LOL your credit card balance! XD

DAMN. Destroyer is one of the best rock albums of all time. RIP legend.

This just makes me seethe because I REMEMBER nerdy 10 year old me watching Star Trek TNG thinking how COOL it was all "Hey, they can talk to the computer! They can do everything by voice command alone! That's AWESOME!" and now that it's a reality, it has been so, so ruined.

"Sometimes things look penis as a catfish." If you know which youtube channel that originated from, congratulations, you are officially a youtube viewer old fart. XD

Oh look it's the "Challenge @micah.pet will inevitably fail" still since it involves NOT peeing on something. XD 🤣 *DUCKS*
