@flexghost bUt jIM moRrIsON wAs A pOEt! By that standard, Paul Shore is an actor.

For me, anything by The Doors qualifies, but since this was their biggest hit, the choice was clear.

@flexghost Not great. Our cat crawled under the couch and stayed there all night. She’s keeping her distance from us today.

Compilation of 80s music videos and ...I love them. People think the 80s had the worst music? 90s were meh with some flashes of brilliance. And has pop music even changed since the 2000s? Clear channel garbage: you're wrong.

@flexghost It’s about as obscure as it gets, but EBN-OZN’s cover of “Rockin’ Robin” still slaps.

@flexghost I’ve never been a big fan of Neil Young, so it kinda makes sense that the one album of his that I love is the one most fans loathe: Trans. Things the first track.

The Indian restaurant I used to work for is so secretive, they made me sign a certificate promising not to share their flatbread recipe. It's a typical naan-disclosure agreement

@Natasha_Jay @miffyhelen That’s better than when I worked as a mechanic. It was one Saab story after another.

    @vampiress This may be a slightly esoteric point, but I don’t think it’s the show’s optimism that didn’t click. Rather, I feel it was more a case of Trek fatigue. Here was a show that used the same templates used in every Trek show since TNG: same storytelling, same pacing, same cinematography, etc, but then they kept the old optimism and wrapped it wide-eyed wonder because they were the first crew to explore deep space. FWIW I still applaud the producers for trying very different theme music.
