Reviewing the appeal letter I just sent Anthem in our ongoing tussle over coverage, discovered I had hyphenated "up-to-date" despite it not being in noun-preceding position, God DAMN it I feel like I let down the whole team

@semidetached Those look like they’d have the power to turn any vista into an opera, if focused just right.

@lexipenia I don’t think I’ve heard Szeryng before and would like to check out more!

@emilyherring I remember the morning the towers came down, the first thing I did after the news sites wouldn't load was go to radiohead.co.uk. I don't know what I thought would be up there, I just had the idea they'd been getting us ready for this and would be able to explain it somehow.

Sometimes, seeing dudes behaving in the world, I remember the awful sorry-not-sorry text to Der zürnenden Diana (https://www.oxfordlieder.co.uk/song/3003) and then think, what a bizarre time capsule Schubert was of his moment, absolutely anything that crossed the guy’s desk was at risk of getting immortalized. What were the odds of “Best Biedermeier Erotica 1820” being the thing to hang around?
