I saw Fat Ham last night in SF for their closing night and honestly I regret not going to more shows during their run, it was so GOOD. I’m so proud of Margo, what an incredible production!

Look Google’s AI also believes that Star Trek is a real place and that we really had an aquarium in SF with two whales called George and Gracie soooo

me: I should really decompress from everything that’s happening

also me: puts on the star trek episode that most accurately predicts some of the dysfunction we’re in
Captain Benjamin Sisko from Star Trek Deep Space Nine: “And the United States will finally begin” Captain Benjamin Sisko from Star Trek Deep Space Nine: “correcting the social problems” Captain Benjamin Sisko from Star Trek Deep Space Nine: “it had struggled with for over 100 years.” Julian Bashir from Star Trek Deep Space Nine: “And all of this is going to happen in the next few days.”

tonight’s move is listening to the music I somehow missed last year while reading and attempting to not doom scroll

Last night I was reading autocracy inc but the eerie similarities with recent history are not helping with my anxiety so I’m spending some time in fantasy for a bit
Two books, Autocracy Inc, and Children of Anguish and Anarchy

after an EXHAUSTING day/week/month/year, felt good to take in some music curated by Courtney Bryan at SF Soundbox (and also a lovely way to kick off black history month). All the composers were from the African diaspora and Courtney wrote a few of the pieces herself!
