After a long year of studying and listening to prog rock albums and slowly eliminating them one by one, the citizens of the Fediverse finally decided on their best

To Fripp, Bellew and the gang, CONGRATULATION

To the Fediverse: Thank you for you participation and see you soon for another album tournament!!!

I've been exploring Joni Mitchell's post-1980 work this past year and I find it matches the impedance of my soul. Today I woke at 12:30 am and walked in the forest for almost three hours in the rain with faint light from the cloud-shrouded full moon while listening to her post-1980 work and it was deeply satisfying. #jonimitchell
My relationship with celiac disease has me feeling burdened and stressed when I go to restaurants, bars, the office - anywhere that there is a risk of gluten contamination. So I rarely go, as I have erected vast psychological barriers around such environments. I wonder if I could make friends via mastodon posts. #celiac #loneliness

For years I knew there was something wrong with my elbows because they did not handle weight well - a hypermobility spectrum disorder would explain this.

Last week, a physical therapist confirmed that I have hypermobility in my elbows and knees. I had long known that my fingers and thumbs had this trait, but didn't realize until this month that this feature could be connected to pain and lethargy issues I've had for a long time.
I hope to explore this in 2024.

My best friend passed away 9 days ago after dying in my arms. He was extraordinarily gentle, amiable, and loving, whispering into my ear when I would nap. I am trying to console and stimulate the mind of his mate, and hope to find her next partner soon. I miss Hari beyond my ability to write. Every blue sky with clouds reminds me of him, and he takes up so much space in my mind that I have trouble filling it with anything else. #budgies #pets

I went to Inglewood, California this week to see the final show of the Age of Pleasure tour by Janelle Monae, was 3-4 people from the stage, wore a purple Kellindo shirt.

I thoroughly enjoyed Dreamer Isioma, Nana Kwabena Tuffour, the surprise Jidenna(!) appearance, and of course, the ephemeral and uplifting Janelle Monae. I had thought Philly was the best show of my life, this was even better!

I'm still feeling amazing from the Janelle Monae concert Monday night in Philly. Only thing that I don't like about it is that the previous two albums were each five years apart and I don't want to wait five more years to see her again - so I'm going to see another show on this tour. All of the musicians who performed - Nana, Flyana Boss, Janelle - had infectious energy, and I will miss #flyanaboss since they're not performing on the final leg. #janellemonae #nanakwabena #ageofpleasuretour
Janelle Monae has been my favorite musician since 2018 when I lfirst heard "Take A Byte" and proceeded to buy CDs of all of her albums and EP. I saw her for the first time, last night in Philadelphia and it was amazing! #janellemonae #philly
