Ne 'z in ket da gorolliƱ
After more than seven months out of work, the degree to which I can afford anything above the bottom rung of Maslow has become truly minimal, but as soon as I discovered Quinquis' eor (2025), a shape-shiftingly electronic, primarily Breton-language album of mermaids and the sea, I leapt for it like it was mackerel. I heard first the all-night love-churn of "Morwreg" (2024), but the irresistible drag sirens of "Dec'h" (2025) sealed the deal.
The copy of Amy Krouse Rosenthal and Tom Lichtenheld's Duck! Rabbit! (2009) which I sent my godchild for his first solstice was familially referred to for years as Baby's First Wittgenstein. I have no idea what Wittgenstein would have made of this cartoon, but I'm impressed.
I am not sure that I am much more than physically extant at the minute. I am clearing the refrigerator and the countertops. I am absorbing as much sunlight as I sleeplessly can. Yesterday kicked off with a doctor's appointment that was too early in the morning to be as unhelpful as it was and only dropped the bar from there, so this afternoon I made sure to secure a half-dozen donuts from the reliable Lyndell's and eat a jam-filled one as soon as I had finished walking home. The neighborhood smelled like alternating drifts of lilac and mulch. I have had the same headache since the weekend and am hoping it is related to the sexing of the trees. The nine o'clock advent of leafblowers to our block was inhumane.

Hmmmkay. *watches the local rock layers*
(It sounds very cool.)
You have also done a modicum of book yelling, I need to point out!

One of the tracks is a duet in Zulu and the other is a duet in Welsh.

I like it immensely! The producer has been recording in Breton for the last five years, but I just found out about her now. It's her familial language.

Is words worth yelling at.

Yay! I really did think instantly of him.

If it's any consolation, you have me beat there.
ETA--I looked at the cartoon just now and laughed. That's going to be one awkward funeral.

And no words, like Charles Addams used to do it.

Thank you. Likewise!
