This event looks great. Just grabbed ticket.

I still think quite a bit about this moment and a room of us catching our breath after the slide transition. And, now, a short/long two years later, also all wondering about just returning to zines and Socratic method.

What are youtube drama channels??

(And maybe it’s a no bad feelings kind of weekend. Wintering and building stores.)

A lesson in perspective. (On approach, this is going to be close! From the rear angle, not close at all.)

And I read your post just now and will be singing/humming it for hours. (This is not exactly a bad thing! One of my favs.)

Mine are adults now. Enjoy these years. They go by in a blink! πŸ’•

Beautiful choice. There’s a Billy Joel SiriusXM channel most winters. He tells a tender story about this song. (I did a quick search to see if there was a clip online, but didn’t find one.)

So many. But for tonight:

And you know that when the truth is told,
That you can get what you want or you could just get old,
You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through

What made it such a great show is that it was entertaining and layered and explicitly political with excellent music, delightful surprise guests, stunning sets, a clear narrative, a shout out to ALL of the Americas and a cameo from Belcalis.

Next time somebody tries to get me to justify the existence of the humanities, I’ll just point out how for the past two Super Bowls we’ve all jumped online and engaged in collective semiotics and hermeneutics of the half-time show as text.
