You played the recorder in part to strengthen your fine motor skills and in part to introduce you to basic music theory concepts like rhythm, the C-major scale, and reading basic music notes. Your teachers wanted to make elementary music education available to all, not just the rich.
Threads post "And then for no reason, no reason at all, they made us all learn how to play the recorder"

Pretty satisfied to have been so right about this scumbag, real bummer that it’s taken *at least* two rounds of women having to publicly air out their traumas to get some movement against him, instead of THE FUCKING NAZI TATTOO stopping his campaign in its tracks

In all seriousness, one thing that might be worth doing today: Tell your Reps and Senators to call Adm. Richard Correll, the Commander of U.S. Strategic Command, which controls the nation's nukes, and remind him of *his* unique responsibility to refuse an illegal order.

The Allman Brothers Band (1994) Tito Puente (1996) Tedeschi Trucks Band (2010) Wilco/Sleater Kinney (2021) Neil Young (2025) I actually wanted to include another show from 1997 instead of Puente, but a brief perusal of the internet can only confirm one of the bands my memory says was on the bill.

Well the South Side, of Chicago is the baddest place I’ve seen, and if you go down there you better just beware of a man named Leo Fourteen. (i realize I’m putting a [pope] hat on a hat here, but I can’t help myself)

I was actually thinking after I commented, that you *could* make the argument that the overwritten prose is part of building up the shaggy dog nature of the full post leading to the twist. Given the dumbassery of the people involved I’m loathe to credit them for anything though?

Genuinely has anyone *ever* been owned so badly as a man who converts to a new religion as an adult and sorta makes it his whole thing only to see the literal head of that religion rebuke his entire deal and then they choose the NEXT head of the religion specifically because he doesn't like you

Inside you are two bass hits, one of them is an 18” Gretsch drum, the other is a very large violin.
