‘Am I being oversensitive about something ostensibly friendly?’ -Aye
I can’t think of another rock star who would be further away from the rigid sexual morality Shapiro purports to live by. I hope he asked Simmons about ‘pin the tale on the donkey’. Unreal.
Haha, yes. If the waiting staff are dicks is what I meant. It happens more often than it used to. It’s like nobody trains staff anymore.
10% as standard. More if great service. None if someone’s a dick.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like… tears in rain.
Scotland has had problems with poorly maintained roads since at least the 18th Century. Take comfort in knowing that the Bard shared your pain. From across the centuries, ‘Epigram On Rough Roads’ #Burns #Poetry #Potholes

William Blake (1757–1827)

Rammellzee vs. K-Rob - Beat Bop
A very, very old experimental Rap record that has not really dated. Many will recognise random lines that have been sampled across Rap history. The Jean-Michel Basquiat cover is the icing on the cake.

Jesus Walks on Water, by Ivan Aivozovsky.
I like that this treats the character of Jesus as an eerie, supernatural being rather than a placid bearded fellow. Creepy even.
