Good for them.

I finally dug through this one by @seanpadilla.bsky.social. Only 21 years too late... 😆
I really love Sean's lyricism. He makes everything (even uncomfortable topics) feel so relatable and illustrative.
And the music itself is fun and catchy!

Highly, highly recommended!

That's arguably the biggest non-academic impact we all have. Make sure to add to your report.
