Actually, you're onto something. President Bailie is at WORST going to drag us into a war with Olivia from math class who told everyone about her crush on Jayden, and I can live with that

Perhaps twenty, even! Imagine paying twenty dollars for something! Anyway, here's what you owe the government

my favorite question on here was "even if you wanted to file your taxes for free and directly at the IRS, are you aware it might cost the IRS ten dollars to do it. ten WHOLE dollars, are you really sure you want that? really?" Yes. Yes I do want that.

Well, that seems like a unanimous consensus. I can't argue with a unanimous consensus like that.

Phew. 6 out of 12 scenes done here, but I forgot how emotionally taxing it is to work with Scene 6, so I'm debating if this still means I deserve an Emotional Support Burrito.

Fiona Apple > that other lady who's in the news for getting engaged to that one guy. For context, PG County is a Black ass county. Fiona Apple was working with an activist group in PG County which inspired her first song in 5 years. Can you imagine that other lady doing anything of the kind.

Oh, Wes. If [composer redacted] was a Posterβ„’ we'd already have gotten into a bitchfight.

God, I'm about to spend [length of time redacted] trying so so so hard not to subskeet about [composer and piece redacted] and I want you all to know that I have the patience of a saint for this and will, in fact, see the light of heaven. Unlike [composer redacted].

Ah, the "goes through chapter books like a teenager goes through groceries" era. My nephew is that age and 90 volumes into One Piece.

probably doesn't help that the standard I hold myself to is "if I print a score with misaligned hairpins I'm going to walk into the sea" and the standard I see in a non-zero amount of professional performing scores is "yeah, fuck it, lyrics on rests is fine"
