I've remastered the first 6 tracks and released them behind a paywall so that you can buy the entire discography in one go, instead downloading track by track! These remasters will be free to listen on streaming platforms in the next day or so :-) Cheers! xisuma.bandcamp.com

Catching up on this @doctorow.pluralistic.net interview. The first third explains the AI bubble as a shell game. I'm usually tilting my head like a confused dog when the stock market comes up, but this was straightforward enough that I'm a dog who's realized we're boned.

Oh, that’s the other thing I have on the list of things for my dad to do or my mom and that’s replace all the batteries in her buttons because almost all the button batteries have died. I really need to just save up the money and get her the tiny button set.

I will be more than likely trying to pay my mom to do my dishes for me or at the very least to help me because I only have one sink. I do have an appointment for the plumber to come in and fix not only my sink, but to do a check up on my boiler to make sure it’s good for the season.

I have stuff in the garden that not that I need to rip out and stuff even though I should, but because I have praying mantis that lay eggs in my garden we have to be careful. It’s more figuring out where to plant plants and then a few other things inside the house.

Phyr @phyrnyt.bsky.social · 08/10/2026

And because I know my mom and my dad, I did in fact have to have them wait because they would’ve absolutely tried to do some cleaning before I got home and I’m just now no we have other things and that would just burn them out.

Phyr @phyrnyt.bsky.social · 08/10/2026

So they’re going to stall a little bit before heading out to my house to visit me for the weekend, but holy crap the stress from the past six weeks absolutely ate up all my energy for cleaning.

Had to ask my parents to make sure they didn’t arrive at my house before me for their trip not because I didn’t want them to arrive before me for ego or whatever… But because I didn’t finish cleaning my house and there’s no place for them to sit.

So apropos of nothing in particular, let’s talk about media tie-in novel pay vs. original work pay, shall we? Let’s say you write a novel. It’s set in your own world, your own characters, and titled The Original. You get a book deal! Look at you go!

I saw Avengers Endgame Encore today. I am an MCU diehard. It's a special interest. And. If you're actually spending money on it, don't, unless you're just going to see Endgame again on a big screen. That part was quite fun. It's 2.5 post-credits scenes. Watch them once they're posted on YouTube.
