TORI AMOS 1994

šŸŽ¹ Today is the anniversary of my first concert: Tori Amosā€™s 1994 Under the Pink tour in Cincinnati. She walked on stage, sat down at the grandest piano, played and repeated a single note for a while and then began singing, ā€œā€¦What would you think if I sang out of tune? Would you stand up and walk out on me? Lend me your ears and Iā€™ll sing you a songā€¦ā€

Hey, Utah Republicans! Not satisfied with achieving the nationā€™s first statewide book ban? Seriously drink every drop of this big cup of shut the f-k up, sit the f-k down, and mind your own f-ing business. Utah book banners now want to make Little Free Libraries susceptible to criminal charges

Watched the pilot/fist episode of Pushing Daisies the other night. I forgot how entirely exquisitely exquisite in its entirety that show is. The symmetry, the super saturation, the finitely infinite, the pie, the pi. And omfg I just realized pi is short for private investigator and now Iā€™m dead šŸ˜µ

I decided to go dark on LinkedIn for a while what with the talking to I got. Honestly it doesnā€™t even matter to me. What mortified me was the idea of my boss talking to her boss about me. I donā€™t ever want to put my boss in the position of having to defend hiring me. That should never, ever happen.

Watching a great webinar on when training is appropriate and when it isnā€™t. I accidentally made the presenter crack up a little by making a (relevant) quip about Iron Man in the chat. ā€œI was trying keep a straight face through this but Matthew you got me,ā€ he said through kind laughter. šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø

POLITICAL POSTS AND POLITICS DONā€™T MIX ON LINKEDIN

Today my bossā€™s boss had a talk about me because of my overtly partisan and political posts on LinkedIn which someone outside of my workplace brought to someone inside of my workplaceā€™s attention. And so I was told Iā€™m not technically breaking a rule butā€¦ I get it and am going to tone it down and set posts to private. But I will say this here: if awful Republicans didnā€™t do awful things like ban books and ignore climate change and control womenā€™s bodies and lie and gerrymander and try to nullify my marriage and suppress votes and disenfranchise voters and stack supreme courts and thoughts and prayers and misogyny and racism and transphobia and tampons in schools and also go right along with an authoritarian fascist racist orange turd bag who lies and lies and only lies, then I wouldnā€™t have anything to post about in the first place on LinkedIn, now would I?

Part of the reason I left most social media was to stop seeing (and posting) narcissistic selfie photos that doled out dopamine with every ā€œlikeā€ received. But I got like 5 compliments on my hair & glasses yesterday and dammit I feel fetching today so here is a narcissistic selfie. šŸ¤³

I made tapioca pudding tonight for the first time probably since I was a boy and my favorite grandma would make it for me. Sheā€™d serve it warm and with whipped cream and oh! Did I ever love that. Tonightā€™s is just minute tapioca without whipped cream but itā€™s still really good.
