So much good music that touches a lot of spots - Hip-hop, Rap, Rock, Heavy Metal, and Folk. A really good mix.
(Plus full album is only 33 minutes, so repeat!)

The algorithm for my X account is only giving me sports, Disney World, bourbon and comics - not much in the way of current events, etc.
ngl, I'm pretty good with that. If I'm gonna be sitting in an echo chamber, it might as well be uplifting.

Bookmark this for next holiday season, folks.
NYE in the ER always hurts my heart because we run traumas on people in the nicest clothes, whose evenings started with such excitement and promise. No one plans to be with us, but you can plan to avoid us:
*public transit
*ride share
*designated sober driver
*talk to your teens about their plans

Good night!
