By the powers I hate fuzzy search. It just makes your search box into one big "I think I'm lucky" field of no good use.

Fuzzy search makes sense when exploring, but not for *finding* stuff!

I'm really looking forward to an abundance of #textual tutorials showing different ways to use the module. I'm having a really hard time with the official documentation, and how I can refactor my current code to use #textual.

This song appears to be a playful and whimsical piece that uses imaginative language and concepts to evoke a sense of wonder and delight.
