If we’re going to do away with the penny, can we also please do away with prices that end in 9?
Blowing the dust off my Bluesky feed. Mimsy and I had a nice long walk today. Here we are on the Croisan Creek trail.
I suffered from insomnia at that age. My mom gave my a copy of the Book of Lists in the hopes it’d put me to sleep. Big mistake. Instead of staying awake until 11:30, I was up til 3.

Did LWTUA have the greatest New Wave bass line of 1980? Almost certainly. One of the greatest bass lines of all time? Most definitely. Greatest bass line by Peter Hook? Nope!
