In my heart I believe that the perfect pinnable skeet truly exists out in the wild universe, among the stars and luminous dust clouds.
Meanwhile, this is all I have to offer.

I felt this post in my bones!
I made a great allusion to “washing my hands of a situation like Pontius Pilate” at work a few weeks ago and was met with blank stares. I also live in the Bible Belt so this confirms to me the public at large just doesn’t read. That’s a big moment in the lore!

Megyn Kelly is a Christian woman . . . this is how a lot of them are going to react because this is what they tell themselves constantly about the men in their lives. It's truly baked into the system.
It cannot be remembered enough that these were the same people who got worked up about drag brunches

On days like this, you NEED a magical, metaphysical, creative, joyous escape into a personal peace.
It can be a delicious meal.
Watching clouds go by.
A comfort TV show.
A smutty book.
A fun skill.
A bath.
Anything for your soul.

Because I listen to a fair amount of folk/Americana (Joy Oladokun, Rhiannon Giddens, etc.), Apple Music sometimes goes: “Oh! You like country!!!” And proceeds to dump a load of “guy in truck sings about his girl” music in the New Music playlist 🤮🤮🤮
Dear Apple Music: the lyrics matter to me, too!

reminder that food is food and if someone is hungry, feed them. don't judge. being food insecure is horrible. some people can't get over the shame of qualifying for assistance. please just be normal about food purchases.

I’ve found an explanation for enharmonic note spellings that young musicians will grudgingly accept, even if they are not thrilled
When a student first comes across a note spelled weirdly they’re annoyed & complain: why couldn’t the composer use C# instead of Db? It’s much easier to read!

IDK, I think it’s important me to make chocolate granola this morning. I’m not asking questions, just following my whimsy
Oh, recipe? Um, not sure… doing what feels right after watching five different videos for ratios & bake times 🤷♀️
