I missed David Bowie because I was hanging out backstage with the guitarist from Prick, getting stood up for an interview with the singer from Prick.
How about this? Best concerts that you ALMOST got to see but DIDN’T.
Include reasons if you like:

Rolling Stones (play rehearsal)

Johnny Cash (I dallied)

R.E.M. (play performance)

Nirvana (canceled, college declined to pay requested $500 appearance fee)

And of course my city council rep, @peterspadafore.com, is the only one who supported keeping Flock cameras in Lansing.
It's absolutely infuriating that I can't even go to work without getting tracked on Flock cameras, but it feels extremely personal that these two are pointed exactly to monitor two of my siblings' homes and businesses and the Old Town festivals.
@andyschor.bsky.social why and who decides this?

Oh, amazing.
From the Stedelijk Museum yesterday: In the World But Don't Know the World (2009) by Ghanaian artist El Anatsui. Made entirely out of bottle caps strung together with copper wire. (I feel like a rube. Hey, look at these nifty Newmans and Motherwells! Nah, I like the one made out of bottle caps.)

This Substack post is gloriously written and made me laugh out loud three times
This explainer out of Australia is genuinely useful background and analysis of what happened with the Canada-US trade deal last night. Note that it is extremely and delightfully sweary. Also there’s an appended glossary of Australian slang.

Last night we had the grand unveiling of our new mural! Isn't it fantastic? The kids who painted it spent time in our space and designed the entire thing themselves. We love that they included the safety equipment! We think the ant may become our new mascot! 🐜

Describing a movie boringly:

One woman's attempts to make her colleagues stick to health and safety regulations fail, with predictable results. She fixes the problem, then leaves the workplace, taking her pet cat with her.

Mostly failed ecoprinting on paper experiment using black tea instead of iron and vinegar and a variety of papers. A few interesting bits, but mostly a mess.

If you’re at GenCon, pop by and say “hi” to Jody! Chances are good that he’ll let you play with some of the toys he’s made.
Waiting for the loading dock so we can start setting up booth 229 for Gen Con. Woohoo!! Really happy with the new stuff we made this year. Going to be fun!

Been really enjoying these books too and swapped to the audio books around book 2 because I’d heard how great Jeff was as a narrator. It wasn’t an exaggeration. He really is one of the best in the business. Huge recommendation and very excited for the TV show.
Deeply cheering news that Jeff Hayes, who narrates – nay, *performs* – the fantastic Dungeon Crawler Carl series by Matt Dinniman, will be in the Peacock TV show as Princess Donut. I'd never heard of these books last June. Now, I am ALL IN. www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/d...
