Human who licenses music for film/TV, plays the tuba (capably) and the ukulele (less capably), enjoys soundtracks & speculative fiction, and votes. (he/they is a-okay)
Also, fuck JKR and any other asshole working to make things worse for people.

I loved those books, those movies, those JW melodies, those themed attractions—but it was an easy choice to lay them aside for something greater.

In this case, it is NOT ok to separate the artist from the art.

There’s a lot happening all at once, this week. I get it! We need our absolute best leadership team in place to confront things, hold people accountable, to & strategize at the highest possible level.

This is why Schumer must step aside & allow for a leader who can do that.

Publicly call for it!

Sen. Schiff, as your long-term constituent, from House Districts 28 & 30 (now held by the great Laura Friedman) to the esteemed CA Senate seat, I’m renewing my request for you to demand new Dem leadership in the Senate. Schumer MUST step aside or be voted out. Please take a public position on this!

Sen. Schiff, as your constituent, I’m imploring you to call for the resignations of the 8 senators who committed that unforgivable sin last night. It’s time for tough decisions like this. It’s time to call out the status quo in the party & challenge the leadership. Schumer must step aside.

The audiobook is phenomenal. I remember having to pull to the side of the freeway after one section, just so my spouse & I could absorb the moment.

By my count that’s about 6-7 double yolks.

In this case I mean the relocation of the button to the right side of the screen when reading comments on a mobile device, placing it exactly when your thumb wants to go when scrolling up or down, resulting in constant accidental likes, even on comments you haaate.

So that carton ended up having about 6 double-yolked eggs. 🥚

I figured the was that, but this morning I opened a fresh new carton and yoked it up anew! 🪺
