We're getting into a rhythm! Day 5 of Inkventpocalypse is up! It's very purple! I also didn't have any sensory issues with anything, thankfully. However, I learned a lot of new to me things. I got hungry researching the inks. Shout out to a tasty @fridaytea.com

Ok so if you're not into things like "experimental inuit throat singing" then I'm not sure why you're following me in the first place but holy *shit* this album (and everything else!) is so good.

I haven’t listened to KMFDM in probably decade(s) & I can’t believe I did so much as a teen. It’s way heavier (guitar-wise) than anything else I listened to. I still remember all the words & samples on ANGST.
It’s hits very differently at 46 than it did at 16, for sure.

If you're unfamiliar with what alt text is, what it means, and how it's used around here, the following may be helpful.
Although it's still a very underused feature, users can add "alt text" to any image

Inkygeek.com blog is taking an inkvent break for tonight, more backend nonsense & a really busy, heavy day means no brains left. I’ve got day 3 done & photographed, just can’t make the words happen. Will make it exactly a week behind (which works out in my head.)
