I swapped to using YouTube Music a while back. Goes OK. I already had a premium subscription so that the family can watch Ad Free on various devices (including the smart TV).

I miss olden days Spotify Discover Weekly and Release Radar, back before the AI crud took over the platform.

The amount of rubbish I shove in my cargo shorts pockets is already pretty high. I don't reckon I'd notice a stray apple core slipped in by a small human, at least not until it made the leg damp (eww!).

I wonder if the hiccupping and the pigeon are related.

Granddaughter got her first visit from The Tooth Fairy (her teeth are SUPER STRONG, she's had a few removed at the dentist, took ages for one to fall out naturally) and she's already "really? Is the tooth fairy really real papa??"

It's not real good* with Thai names when reading them in English either. Most of the time I wish it wouldn't bother, it's not helping. Stick to road numbers, and never ever tell me to "turn left after undecipherableplacename".

*To be fair, neither am I.

The lunatic left caused such a ruckus about it I had no choice but to abandon my plans for the Big Beautiful Ballroom.

You did warn us, but man, that was not riveting viewing.

I'm wondering if any sickos purposefully didn't feed their cat beforehand so that they'd wolf it down. What a shite competition.

Shazam was black magic fuckery back in the day. Then when I read about how it worked, 🀯
Makes sense that this might have come out of them. Nice acquisition by Google.

This thing is uncanny. Either I'm a Very Good Hummer, or it's very very good. It's got everything right so far. Except for when I coughed in the middle of the Imperial Death March, that one threw it πŸ˜†

We are in the future. I hummed a few tracks at this, it got them all. Amazeballs.

Wish this was around 33 years ago when I got Under The Bridge stuck in my head, but I didn't know the name of the track because the DJ didn't back announce it.

Aye, raw salmon. She loves it.
She only reached for the ketchup when the soy looking sauce (sashimi sauce?) ran out as well.

Wait, wasn't the dude from The Crow killed on Devil's Night?

(to the googles)

He was. In Detroit. Which is in Michigan (I didn't know this). Neat, I remembered something!

Go you!

I usually try and have shorts on, just in case a delivery comes, or wife yells for something, or dogs start barking, or... crikey I get a lot of interruptions!

I have done a teams or two in just my jocks and a t-shirt, super liberating.
