In my 20s there was a guy in my friend group of people who went to bars together who did a KILLER karaoke Piano Man. His family owned a chain of St Louis funeral homes and he went into the family business. “People are dying to get in.”

Reminds me of “Terence This is Stupid Stuff”

And I myself, a sterling lad
Down in lovely muck I’ve lain
Happy till I woke again

Tactical perfection is laying down in lovely muck hammered drunk. You think you are crushing it.

I was I
My things were wet

Daylight Saving Time is fast time, an hour ahead of Standard Time. It rushes us through each day (in the hopes we spend more money), rather than enjoy our days at nature’s pace.

These days will end, Cassian Andor. The way they laugh. The way they push through a crowd. The sound of that voice telling you to stop, to go, to move. Telling you to die. Rings in the ear, doesn't it?
