When the app said BlueSky needed to verify my age, I thought it would at least tell me how old it thought I was. Kinda disappointed!

More people need to be talking about Étoile on Amazon Prime. Absolutely best show I've seen since, well, since The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.

Perfect cast. Banging soundtrack. Hilarious. Excellent choreography and cinematography. 10/10 My favourite show of the year.

Dropped a key through a crack in a floorboard six months ago.

Finally got it out with tiny magnets.

So satisfying!

I make $20 every six monthsish on the combined streams of all four of my albums on all streaming sites. At Bandcamp I make about $10 every time I sell an album, physical or download. Use Spotify if you want, but if you like living artists making a living, buy something from them where they get paid.
Who would have foreseen that by effectively stealing music from artists by stopping paying out on songs that have less than 1000 streams in the past 12 months would result in a first ever annual profit for Spotify?

In related news: PLEASE USE BANDCAMP

What is the episode where the tour bus explodes in the desert and the media mistakenly believes the main characters are all dead? I can't remember what the TV show is... but I am pretty sure it was a US comedy.

Had a dream this morning about dipping rice balls in melted chocolate to make a kind of sweet snack. Would this actually be good? Does it already exist?
