Mudgeon the crow monster and I are having nirvano, a medium roast blend from Outer Dark with goat milk foam and shoegaze for our ears this morning. Brew time was about 3.5 minutes and the method was pour over.
I hope you all have a lovely day wherever and whenever you are. Cheers.
Today is a Mexican dark roast from Outer Dark. Tasting notes are mostly char, wood, and dark chocolate. The foam is goat milk, and the method is pour over. Also, bonus cats in the background.
¡Espero que tengas una buena semana!
reblog if the first musical you listened to was not Hamilton
Do you mean live theater, professional production? I think that was the Will Rogers Folly’s. If you count community theater it was a musical version of Midsummer Night’s Dream. In terms of movie musicals it was the R&H South Pacific. Of course before all of those I watched the Jungle Book (original feature animated film) 500 times before age seven and had every word of every aria memorized.
Today’s cup is a limited edition roast from my local shop Outer Dark called Bizarre. Dark chocolate and rose notes, light roast, very fruity. Foam is goat milk and the method was pour over.

A good day starts with Daria and a damn fine cup of coffee.
Card and coffee. Today is the 8 of cups, a dark night of the soul so to speak. Well as long as I’ve got my joe I am sure I can handle it. Happy morning wherever you are.
Capp and daily card, what does the day have in store?
A willow tree in black and white is timeless.
If retro is 15 years old or older then I am getting pretty close to everything in my life being retro.
Fun fact: some of the voice actors from Magic School Bus also appeared in Are You Afraid of the Dark?, and I was feeling nostalgic so I drew the MSB kids as their AYAOTD counterparts.

Generational Demography is Dumb
Generational classification is a nightmarish conceit born of marketing and the endless need of humans to feel both connected and independent, especially when we are young. To borrow from an old joke, it is the need to "all be different together." If it simply stopped at artificial lines in trends or even sales pitches, it would be annoying but not harmful. Sadly, that is not the case.
Many people really believe that there are unreconcilable differences between generations. Furthermore, they often have prejudices and even act in overtly discriminatory ways across generational lines. This decreases social cohesion, a force that is in short supply anyway, and allows the ownership class to further divide the majority against itself. The fact is that no matter the age of the person sitting across from me in a Denny's, I undoubtedly have more in common with them than I do with dynastic actors or billionaire business people.
It is of course true that I was born in a time and place. Being raised in the midwestern U.S. throughout the late 80s and 90s does inform my taste and my sense of optimism (or lack thereof). It doesn't mean I am destined to like or dislike anything. It has no actual impact on my understanding of technology, politics, or social norms and only minimally impacts my habits online. So at first blush it is all nonsense, and the best thing we could do is just drop the generational nonsense and focus our energy on the class war, which as of now we are badly losing.
The thing is... There is a part of me, and I bet there is a part of you too, that wants generations to be real. If not generations, then Breakfast Club cliques, or maybe high school reunions, or something, anything, to feel connected to. I think that is part of why this harmful myth works too. I want to think that as a former latchkey kid turned cynical 40-something, there are other people who will just get me. Even if we are only two years apart and grew up in the same house, there is no guarantee of understanding; ask my brother. So the desire is real, but the idea that generational categories will bring it is a false promise.
Whenever you were born, I hope you are having a good life. If not, I hope that it changes, and remember the timeless wisdom "Don't Let the Bastards Grind You Down."
Well, say goodnight Gracie.
