That's a bit ham-fisted but nevertheless gets dap for name checking them.

That'd be a pretty left field name drop (albeit of a fantastic group). I've gotta give the album a listen still. Looking forward to it.

Such a quotable!

Miley Stewart is just the fictional character name on the show. Beyond that, I don't know much and have never seen an episode (not the demo/age). Your last question makes me think of that Black Mirror episode she did years back.

Oh sorry you'd probably know her by her stage name....

Miley Stewart.

Speaking of Shogun....I was convinced John and Mariko were the Jim and Pam of feudal Japan and then.... Great show!

Anyone watch The Sympathizer on HBO? Thoughts?

Kermit the Frog has had over 50 personas. Heck when he was a Doctor it was also in space! Like, come on, pick a lane frog!

Yes, I've no disagreement regarding your assertion. Rather, it sparked musings of my own regarding Nietzsche's own thoughts on the creation of art. It could easily be applied to many musical artists.

This makes me think of Nietzsche's The Birth of Tragedy. This phenomena of intense artistic performance in juxtaposition to the "off stage" persona would be suitable to look at through the lens of Dionysian frenzy, transcendence, and the ultimate tearing apart of one's self in artistic revelry.

100! I'm also unapologetically biased. TAFKAP was not a persona like a Ziggy Stardust, etc. Sure, it was presented to the public but as an act of protest more than a commercial pivot. Jamie Starr was not presented to the public at all. Die hard fans knew the name, but it was more of a way to...

Maybe. It's a good discussion and mostly anecdotal in our assertions. My mother is a septuagenarian Jewish woman from CT that is firmly Democrat. And so are the legion of women in her canasta group. They probably all have landlines (although my mother would not talk to anyone cold calling).

If I'm reading this correctly, your assertion is that folks on the right are more likely to spend their time sharing their political opinions to strangers on the phone? I don't know, I've heard a lot of liberals bloviate ad nauseum too. I could imagine them bending a pollsters ear. Full...

Got greeted by this cutie outside my lodging this morning. Super friendly. Came straight to me for pets. Small but young looking not malnourished and pretty clean.

Lol. Worlds apart. Needs a mashup.

I get the sometimes awkward push and pull of giving and receiving, reciprocation, social expectations, etc. But here's the deal: I've found this place to be an incredibly generous environment - in relationships, information, and exchange. There are stellar examples all over the place...folks...

Yup...if you're still using it, that used to be my ortofon. I wouldn't feel right taking anything. Honestly, it's just been sitting in a components box unused. I wasn't planning on selling it. In fact, I don't know what I've really kept it for. But...make sure it meets your needs and timeframe...

I have a Music Hall PA 2.2. I bought it new in 2017 and haven't used it regularly since 2018 (I had it in a side system for about six months in 2021). You're welcome to it for free. However, I am currently out of state for work till end of April and then a short trip to Mexico. I wouldn't be...
