Bluesky's favorite opera composer [citation needed]. Not tonal, not atonal, but a secret third thing. Posts about music, D&D, and loads of other nonsense. Adequate approximation of a teacher, if you squint | she/her | midwesterner in 🌉

Bari discovering “60 Minutes” is a title, not a suggestion for how much journalism experience to bring to the job.

People do not understand that Flavortown is not a real place, much like the metaphor of the City on a Hill. It is about the struggle within and how much Donkey Sauce you will put on it.

All of the Diet Cokes I drink in a day. I take them out and line them up in a row on the desk without breaking eye contact. The manager cowers in fear. Surely my purse isn't that big. Surely I've stopped by now. Surely this is not the correct number of Cokes

Why are so many productions of modern opera set in the most hideous bare-bones modern-day sets imaginable? Big tarp. Exposed electrical wires. No color. There's literally just some ladders in the back. Can one not sing dissonance in corsets and silk?

RIP to Chris Christie’s 2028 campaign, murdered by an octogenarian mere hours after launch
Joyce Carol Oates • @JoyceCarolOates
really, this is a serious question: why on earth would Chris Christie imagine that anyone, anywhere, ever would want him to run for President? what sparks such a delusion? granted, his wife might enjoy having him out of the house & on the campaign trail; but better just get an inexpensive hobby instead.

Image 1: A comic book panel. Emma Frost stands behind and speaks to Miss Piggy.

Emma Frost: Darling. I'm a telepath. May I read your midn to ascertain if you're telling the truth?

Miss Piggy: But of *course*, darling. I am an open book, a tell-all memoir.Image 2: A continuation of the same comic. Emma Frost's eyes glow white and her mouth is agape. 

Emma Frost: My god...

Behind her, a kaleidoscope of images of Miss Piggy in various scenes and forms, including dramatic action kick wearing spandex, wearing expensive-looking clothing, and wearing a tiara and being carried by shirtless men in a palanquin. There is a multi-colored star motif and several sparkle effects on the image.Image 3: two horizontal comic panels.

Top panel: Wolverine touches Emma Frost's shoulder from behind.

Wolverine: Frost? She legit? 
Emma Frost: She's... She's...

Bottom panel: a closeup of half of Emma Frost's face, eyes and mouth still wide with wonder. 

Emma Frost: "...She's *everything*. And I would *die* for her.

oh yeah lol i remember this guy. poncho munch for deano bonano. that phrase we’ve all heard before
POLICE CHIEF
PONCHO MUNCH
- FOR -
DEANO BONANO
I'M WITH
BONANO
During Hurricanes Ike, Gustav and Katrina there was one constant. Deano Bonano was there for Westwego residents every time. As Director of Emergency Management and the head of Jefferson's Homeland Security, Deano instinctively knew the needs of our city.
That's because in his 30+ years of experience in Jefferson Parish government, where he led many critical divisions, Deano not only realized how a parish could help a city in need, but he also knew exactly who at the parish-level could help us most. It was during our darkest days in Westwego that Deano Bonano was our brightest guardian.
I'm supporting Deano for Council because I know how much he can and will help Westwego in every way. I'm asking you to please consider supporting Deano as well!
It's important to Westwego!
