Hi, y'all.

I left Dark Finance.

I'm a cook.

Last band broke up.

New band is cool: https://badvrb.bandcamp.com/album/ep1

Shall I mark all as READ?

Love,
LMNO

I've been blaming Cram for it

This makes sense. Kramer, Cram-er. It all fits together.

WAKE UP, SHEEPLE!

It's been a real challenge to my apparent hidden agism, to be honest.  Most of the volunteers are retirees, and those folx can do some serious food prep work.  I've also been able to lean into my "meditation by way of mise en place" pretty hard.  Three hours of mirepoix prep can change one's brain.

I guess I should update people.

On Mardi Gras day last February, I overcame the curse that bound me to the Dark Gods of Actuarial Finance, and they released their hold over my soul.  Something about, "Maximizing efficient capacity resources viz reduction of meat-based sentience". Then they handed me a small gold-plated parachute (honestly, it was spray painted metallic yellow) and cast me into the void.

It's been an interesting few months.  Now that I had my soul back, I wasn't going to readily jump back into that occult morass.  I've been volunteering in a kitchen that provides meals for the housebound and infirm (it began back in the 90s as a way to get food to AIDS patients who were too ill to leave the house).  I know I'll eventually have to do something capitalistic, but for now I'm really enjoying simply helping people who need it.  So much so that I'm seriously considering going into non-profit work. 

I also laid down some drum tracks for a bar rock kind of band called "American Traditional"... when it gets posted, I'll share a link.

Anyway, that's what's going on with me.

I do not want to acknowledge what I just saw.

I will say however, when I read the OP, my brain did not read "briping" as "BRY-ping", as obviously intended. 

I read "BRIP-ping".

I prefer it that way.

I post this sentence so there are five "I" statements in this post.

I figured it the other way around -- fuck Amazon, let people buy it from a competitor for less.

I dunno if Lulu does hardcover, but I've got a few paperbacks of the CTC around the house, want one?

I'm setting up the new 2021 PD there in hardcover. It's been a while since I used them and it was new to me.

Amazon is where I'm having a problem. They seem to think the PD should be re-typeset from scratch so it reads like a normal book. There may not be a new Amazon paperback version. I'll keep hacking away trying to get them to understand that it's MEANT to look they way it does. 

Yeah, I was unpleasantly surprised when I found out that the CTC was available on Amazon for like three times the price as Lulu.  Naturally, I see none of those profits.  I have stickied the situation on the FB page, and have advised that people buy directly from Lulu.
