Wack music for a wack time. It's jazz. Sorta. I guess.

Shin Masked Rider - one of the silliest, most violent, cheapest looking, most frenetically paced yet still coherent movies I've ever seen, and I'm only an hour in. I hope the second half is just as good. The director and editor should get an award for staying off of drugs and making sure this movie stayed on track despite the absolute hatchet job of ridding the movie of all chaff and all the continuity errors.

Brian Viglione is playing drums with her on tour...which led to this instagram post: https://www.instagram.com/veronicaswiftofficial/reel/C8KcasNAuVA/ ...which sounded very interesting, so thought I'd check out her music.

This is somewhat disturbing, so I'm going to invent a new tag: Not safe for those disturbed by AI artifacts

Carbs! Comfort food! A mini apple pie and glazed apple fritters from Wegmans.

Disease bringer. I hate to say it, but she's right. Nothing wrong with humanely getting rid of it, but you will at least want to be careful not to get bit by the thing. (We get them all the time where I am. Kikik even had one in its mouth for a while. Natural born huntress.) Oh, and yeah, the circle of life is so common in those situations, prepare for grief:

And showering takes a fraction as long, and drying off after a shower takes a fraction as long...but what am I supposed to do with this gargantuan bottle of shampoo? I'm only supposed to use a nickel-sized dollop every time... Oh, and hats, I get to start wearing hats again. What do you think? https://www.etsy.com/market/black_leather_hat

Yes, new member here. Thanks for the welcome/cheers, and salutations...hi, long time, no &c...

Have you ever heard Alice Sara Ott, Alfred Brendel, or Marth Argerich interpreting Chopin? I don't really keep track of favourites, but those are my go-tos. I have many others, and very few of them do Chopin wrong (including, I'm sure, Pogorelich, I just don't recall ever listening to his).

Naw, I'm good. I don't do pics.

LOL, I looked at the picture first, and thought, "those are the most loosely packed summer rolls I've ever seen".

I saw my bald spot, so I shaved my head.

Happy birthday! (hátíðarhljóð)

Sit right back and you'll hear a tale...

No, I've got some flamed tops, too. (rimshot)

I just nominated Hiromi's Sonicbloom's Time Control as album of the decade, 2000-2009 on I&W (prog rock and prog metal) Discord Server. Hiromi's Sonicbloom was her, Martin Valihora (drums), Tony Grey (bass), and David Fiucynski (guitar), and -- IMHO -- Fiucynski was as important as she was in making their sound so appealing to me. You should check out all of their albums if you aren't already familiar. It's a 3 dimensional 4 faceted gem.

@Grahame I found a bird after your own heart.

Happy belated, Kerry! Hope it was great. (party favour noise)
