How I like my tunes

my body does not know the difference between a mistake at work and being hunted for sport

A fire broke out backstage in a theater. The clown came out to warn the public; they thought it was a joke and applauded. He repeated it; the acclaim was even greater. I think that's just how the world will end: to general applause from wits who think it's a joke. —Kierkegaard

Winter is great because 2 months in you’re like that was neat but that’s enough of that. And then Actual Winter hits.

Vampires of Geona (1991) is a short animated science-fiction film from the final years of the Soviet Union

"Like the time I caught the ferry to Shelbyville? I needed a new heel for m'shoe. So I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time."

Out getting some exercise this afternoon. Love this crunchy snow.

I have soo much second-hand embarrassment for the United States.

Absolutely unhinged. WTF America. What a fucking loon.

Very pretty but soo heavy. Can't wait for the plow to come by so I can shovel it all again.

A timely Soviet joke: A man comes to a newsstand every day, scans the front page, and leaves disappointed. One day the vendor asks what he's looking for. The man says an obituary. "But, Comrade, the obituaries are at the back." The man replies, "Not the one I’m looking for."

Also got a birthday bottle of #Raasay from my wife. Did pretty well in the whisky dept this year.

Received an interesting #bourbon from my brother in the States. Looking forward to giving this Series 2 release from Hidden Barn a try. Still not buying any bourbon these days but it's nice to have that connection in the US.

As a boy I always knew I wanted to grow up and use two factor authentication to access fast food reward points on an app

A photographer’s portrait in a mirror, a hundred years ago, Japan, ca. 1920.

WTF is this electric car that drives around sounding like a goddamn church organ? Who's stupid idea was this?

Can't wait for the album to drop

hard to keep up with all the converging existential crises lately, huh

Beautiful and warm here today. Snow's mostly gone and it was pretty icy, but it was a great day in the woods. Almost felt like spring!

Ursula Le Guin’s schedule which I love and will forever aspire to … here’s to 2026 …

One Battle After Another was not my thing at all. Interesting plot and some great performances but too weird and that soundtrack had me turning the volume down and just using captions. Just awful.
