Good thing grace isn’t about desert.

Turns out Mickey also had the 10 1/2!

😅

British Renaissance Fair(e) may be redundant like “naan bread” or “muay thai boxing” 🙄

Offset with property and sales taxes 🤷‍♀️

I’m all in

Yesss! Didn’t know there was a “Paprika” movie! I loved the book.

Forgot about this one. Really great!!!

Kids in the Hall: Brain Candy one of my favourite comedies of all times. Watermelon Man is an old fave.

But still interesting

Oak my god, I’ve never heard of the acorn trick! To the rabbit-hole!

I always think it’s weird when I run into people that can’t whistle or make a horn sound blowing a blade of grass. I’m not even talking like those ear-piercing 2-fingers-in-mouth whistles, just regular Andy Griffith style.

Definitely understand there are many whistling taboos(as there should be, Russia) and some bored rural-ness that factor in.

The Deutsch and their « zeugs  and Dings »

I love that a culture so associated with attention to detail and precision engineering is just like « flugzeug, fuerzeug, schlagzeug, schreibzeug… »

A quick stroll down a single playlist:

Anti-Flag, Kendrick Lamar, Rage Against the Machine, Nas, The Casualties, Veil of Maya, Lil Nas X, Nirvana, MIA, Childish Gambino, The Vandals, JayZ, J Cole, Mdou Moctar, Juiceworld…

That’s not even getting into the stuff Im aging out of(and still quietly loving).

Man, the kids are alright.

Definitely not fewer protest songs. Lots of “new” protest genres exist now (punk, rock, rap, hiphop, reggae, still folk, etc.). Radio and television are way less relevant for reaching « protest » audiences (generally younger). Without the risk of conscription into a foreign war, the anti classist/racist/authoritarian protest likely sounds different.

The times, they are a-changing(but not much)

Useful update frequency is awesome!
