The discovery phase here is gonna be…interesting.

Good morning, London.
Tonight is _John Proctor Is the Villain_ at Royal Court Theatre and let’s just say I’m pretty fucking excited about it. But first I have to go walk around and see alllll the things. Some of the things. Things!
If the wealthy can get you thinking about who deserves basic needs and who doesn't, they win. They don't care if you think wealthy people are the ones who don't deserve; establishing that it must be earned is the key. With that done, they can just keep expanding the definition of "undeserving."
Gosh don't you just feel so lucky and chosen, ATX friends, what with Waymo using our streets to play a frogger with kids so their cars can learn! Extra bonus it trains kids to be alert! Extra alert!

Middle School Porn Piñata Party is my next band name
OBVIOUSLY
Nope I did not have "dementia grandma gives gift of porn filled piñata to middle schoolers" on my bingo card today but I really *really* needed a full body laugh so thanks reddit
Believe me I get the anonymity part BUT - there is a great chain of musicianly sobriety of both the sponsorship and encouragement varieties in ATX - that turns on the willingness of people to share their strength and hope. We lost a very strong link in our chain this past week. 💔

Ways I’ve grown more conservative with age: I’ve learned to value and better care for relationships and possessions. Also, to think more in terms of stewardship than ownership when it comes to art, trees, many things that should outlast me in the natural course of things.
You?

Photo of a full plastic to-go bowl of water on a plate weighted w stones. It’s outside by a tree in an apartment complex in South Austin, Tx for the birds, squirrels, and other wildlife. It was in the 90s the last few days.

Imma just say it: YES it bothers me that my primary Reddit account gets repeatedly shadowbanned. I just use it to give compliments on craft forums and chat about local news ffs.
If you didn’t follow the 1st amendment trial of Afroman - who WON his case yesterday - you owe it to yourself to watch clips/read transcripts. Masterclass in bear clapping back at aggressive law enforcement chodes.

Photograph of an orange cat stretched out on an outdoor lounger that's covered with colorful fabric. He's rolled over on his right side, face tilted out toward the camera. He's a handsome fellow named Norman Mailer.
Oh me too! I was so happy when he came sauntering in 10 minutes later! Stupid cat.
Went to a very nice dinner at Justine's last night with new friends, musicians all - and I'm here to tell you the music was so fucking bad we actually complained about it after discussing it for 20 minutes. Sounded like 80s and 90s tv soundtracks from various genres and trust us WE KNOW.
