LF Lightning-Barugh @cheeseford.bsky.social · 1hListening to the new EP of Songs In The Key Of Life outtakes. Other artists would kill for material this good, and Stevie just sat on it for 50 years. I frequently dream that my house has rooms I didn't know existed. I don't think there's any meaning deeper than needing the storage space. 2183

LF Lightning-Barugh @cheeseford.bsky.social · 29/09/2026I didn't have a huge amount of resentment for other practitioners when writing was my main source of income. There were a few I thought were shitty chancers. I felt that quality would always out, and the shitty chancers would be known. Now I have even less resentment. It's a state of grace. 190
