The deluge here in Central Texas continues. If you're in the Austin (#atx) area, please check atxfloods.com for real time info on street crossings. @mikesiegeld7.bsky.social just mailed out good information too at us10.campaign-archive.com?u=51fd74872d...

Less than 90 minutes to go, and only $205 to go. Yipes.

I'm absolutely crazy for Lush, but never really jelled with My Bloody Valentine.

Hat tip to @fayer.dev and @dom2d.bsky.social here. Really great work.
