So does this mean that these are two things our generation will be defined by? Is that what you are trying to say?

Since they have “take your kid to work day”, can they have a “take your retired, elderly, disabled parent to work day”? Sometimes I get real tired of being td my job is ”sooooo easy”.
Trying out a ”cozy romance” to help even out some more intense reading I’m doing otherwise and I’m still not sure the genre is for me. Something tells me that Iris from “The Strawberry Patch Pancake House” and I have different standards for men.
Today I learned that my Livejournal is of legal age; well technically that plus a year. Oh my.
Five (5ive)- “It’s The Things You Do”
Sometimes I really like a good pop song. and this is actually one of them. While Backstreet Boys remain my favorite boy band to this day, Five had a few really good tracks. Trust me, it’s good!

I love Marita so much because she communicates so much without even saying anything. And even when she does, the AI auto-dub makes it even funnier.

Heart- “Magic Man” Midnight Special Live
Really enjoying this song for the past couple days.

Last week my Ancestry profile me that Louisa May Alcott was one of my distant cousins and this week it’s telling me that I’m cousins with Carole Lombard. Kinda cool if it’s true.
The New Pornographers- “Stacked Crooked”
Sometimes I forget that this album came out over twenty years ago. I also forget that they have new music that I need to catch up on. Kinda tough though when they already have so much music that you love.

Billy Talent- “Try Honestly”
Just watched their acceptance speech for The Juno Humanitarian Award. Very nice sentiments. Growing up close to the border, the radio played their songs a lot. This one in particular.

Such a strange picture. Gotta be AI, or something is wrong with his fingers.
The New York Public Library just shared an interesting reel on Instagram. Here’s a snapshot.
Weezer- “Say It Ain’t So”
Strange thumbnail
Nice song though
Funny how time changes things

@redvoxband.com - “Cemetery Window”
Band member and songwriter @vinny.vinesauce.com likes to call this album “sad white boy music” but I’m not sure he knows how much other people identify with it. Those who aren’t “sad, white, boy”(s). From a sometimes anxious, white, girl

Went ahead and talked about AI in writing and publishing (aka, that Shy Girl shit), and the perhaps unseen perniciousness of how AI can utterly fuck up the fidelity of our information environment --
Liam Finn- “Neurotic World”
Tried to pick a song to match the current mood.
Been having more of my intense dreams recently.
Last night’s involved, among other things, a floating cloud ad machine for doughnuts; breaking and falling from the sky, spewing doughnuts as it did

Gorillaz- “The Plastic Guru ft. Johnny Marr and Anoushka Shankar”
We believe what we choose.

M83- “A Bit Of Sweetness”
Because we all could use some…

Thompson Twins- “If You Were Here”
Feeling very dreamy, ethereal, vibes tonight.

One of my favorite films! So much more faithful to the source material (the second and third books of the series).

Hamilton Leithauser & Rotsam- “The Morning Stars”
Nice soundtrack theme for today.
Got a flat tire yesterday.
One of my < 6 month old tires.
But I finally had time
To go to Krispy Kreme
And freaked out a guy
Because I could load the tire
Into my car all by my self

Brand New- “Sic Transit Gloria….Glory Fades”
Randomly just heard this song for the first time in a long time. Instantly took me back to 2003.

My Dad’s cat Mars likes to cuddle with me while I listen to @vinny.vinesauce.com stream. Used to be Sweety but maybe now this will be a new routine.
Crowded House- “Weather With You”
Outside temperature made it to over 50 degrees today. Made me feel like walking on the beach on a hot day, singing to this song.

Washed Out- “Don’t Give Up”
Perfect song to mellow out to after a long day/week.

General Public- “Tenderness”
I really do think that the Clueless movie soundtrack is one of the best soundtracks. Whoever chose the songs to be included on it did an excellent job.

To be fair though, people say a lot of dumb shit in that chat. And no, I am not excluding myself from that statement. But there is also a lot of good as well. Sometimes you just have to weed through the vines/ read between the lines.
Split Enz- “I Walk Away”
One of their more iconic videos for me. My Dad played this a lot when I was a kid and over a decade later I randomly heard the song and immediately began to picture the gigantic heads bopping around everywhere. Like no time had passed.

Might be the wrong guy, but Granddad would still be on his side I would like to believe. Like a comically small side-kick perched upon his shoulder. Oh, what if it was infused with Joel’s soul?
