really *really* not looking forward to the temperatures dropping next week.

Goodnight, Texas - “Of Wolf and Man” from The Metallica Blacklist https://youtu.be/6qYBI1fI7_4 via @YouTube

still no bluegrass cover, but this one's good enough that I'm wearing my poncho to listen to it, and really wish I could light up.

"Welcome to Hell Creek." *spits*

10. Plush Hole Sun - (Soundgarden + Stone Temple Pilots Mashup) by MashG... https://youtu.be/YXmEkGneo3U via @YouTube

so 90s I now want to get some coffee, have a couple of American Spirits, and be petty making fun of the ault Men Seeking Men section of The Stranger.

Look, most of what you WANT to do is probably cringe. There's a lot of horrible shit out there, and nobody's talking about how embarrassing THAT is, compared to wearing a pup hood/running around on all fours/model railroading/writing Sonic fanfic/w/e harmless stuff.

The only way you'll avoid being cringe is sticking with what media tells you is appropriate for conventionally pretty cis people your age who are naturally athletic, like movies and who are pretty well off.

So why beat yourself up?

HOOVER! HE WAS A BODY REMOVER!
I'LL GIVE YOU A DOSE
BUT IT'LL NEVER COME CLOSE TO THE RAGE BUILT UP INSIDE OF ME
FIST IN THE AIR IN THE LAND OF HYPOCRISY!
MOVEMENTS COME AND MOVEMENTS GO
LEADERS SPEAK MOVEMENTS CEASE WHEN THEIR HEADS ARE FLOWN
CAUSE ALL THESE PUNKS GOT BULLETS IN THEIR HEADS
DEPARTMENT OF POLICE (what) THE JUDGES (what) THE FEDS

I think what I'm going to do with my feelings of "the world is meant for someone else not me" is go with a pretty basic "that's a way too simple explanation of things."

@raccoonformality@mastodon.gamedev.place ironically the only time I was assumed to have a raccoon fursona was running a panel about procyonids/ursids for FC, years and years ago - I'd decided that the science track needed to alternate what species there'd be panels about, and the room was full of really huge bearded dudes who couldn't figure out what I was doing there until I started talking about procyonids.

oh YEAH the part of the Juno Reactor album when Keanu fights that one dude.

cooked pea shoots, cooked chicken liver, decided I wasn't in a chicken liver mood right now and tried making chopped liver for the first time ever, since I have this rye bread I can make sandwiches with later. So currently having noodles with this sauce I picked up Sunday.

I remain angry at the same old shit I was angry about 2 years ago, 5 years ago, will be angry about 10 years from now probably, who the hell knows

I have now pushed myself through job hunting today too, despite my mood going steadily from "drumming on my coffee cup to really catchy oud" to "everything I value is nothing within a society which benefits the wealthy, abusive and greedy, with no consequences."

Break time.

catching haloes on the moon
gives my hands the shapes of angels
in the heat of the night the animals scream
in the heat of the night falling into a dream

... always thought the song was about animism, environmental destruction, species loss. Apparently it's about Robert Smith wanting to get laid at a big nasty room party at a furry con, or similar.

* swaps from Tinariwen to The Cure, clicks on more Indeed.com job listings, wonders what happened to "I'm going to read my new Forgotten Realms splatbook to chill out before doing this thing I hate."

man if I had all the time and capability in the world I'd learn French, Arabic *and* Tamasheq

Rahim AlHaj is great, but there are other people in this coffee shop so maybe I shouldn't drum along on the table, or my latte, even if the lid means I can get two tones easily out of it.

once again so in love with James Horner's soundtrack for Willow - him pulling Grieg meets Prokofiev and slightly earlier Horner soundtracks isn't especially original, but you'll notice it also *works*.
