I haven't lifted properly since 2024 because old shoulder, and have recently dipped my toe back in. It feels so dang good. You can do it. :)

That's a Brazilian metal band, known for their groundbreaking 1993 album "Chaos .א.ד"

With my intermediate German (and resulting patchy comprehension of Yiddish), I smirked.

Probably either a mix @rfranklin15.bsky.social made me or, like, Sepultura

An all-time favorite.

Be sure to follow it with that noir classic, The Large Sleep.

Thank you for the heads-up. I believe deeply that our two communities ought to be and have been natural allies, I love my Black Jewish friend-niblings, and I respect Mr. Gates as a presenter, so I will be watching this. I hope it lives up to its potential.

That list of states isn't complete, though. (1) It doesn't have two of the most populated states, California and Texas. (2) Significant numbers of MLB & NHL players are presumably not eligible to vote in US elections. I don't know what difference that would make, but it's worth considering.

Shabbat shalom, y'all.

Never had that as a kid. Family left the Pale of Settlement well before WWI, never mind WWII. Grandparents were proud, settled Americans, never any talk like that. Still developed that neurosis somewhere back in the dusty parts of my brain.

Slipped and fell yesterday while walking to the subway station. Now my finger is splinted against my other finger with tape, and I get to go to the doctor tomorrow to see if I broke the knuckle.

The moral of the story:

Fuck ice.

They went up to 1K a couple weeks ago. But it was in gift cards, if that matters to you.

I went to a few grindcore shows in about 1997, so you were half-right the first time.

You are very correct. Very not cool.

I wish you solace. Have a bro hug.

Thank you for that.

That pun is clever. I see you.

Ha. You know what's up. And I think you and I might have gotten along. :)

Also Bob Marley and, because my roommate was a Parrothead, Jimmy Buffett.

I was listening to indie rock but that's what was on all around me.

DMB and Jack Johnson are like 75% of what my college dorm life sounded like. (Jack Johnson even went to my school.) I will always have a soft spot.

It's okay, I really don't need this other kidney

And learning, by the looks of things--as are we all.

also I mean that as a compliment. You're doing the job of "student" well. :)

You're going old school. Name-brand Prozac.

Heh. I wonder what my name would be in Klingon.

Anyway, qap'la, dude*. 🖖

if Q were the one telling me, I wouldn't believe it for several days at least.
