Went deep on playing with VCV Rack again last week. That stuff is SOOOO much fun. It might be a lot of work to actually get to where you are producing good music, but there is so much fun learning along the way...

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)
Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.

I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

This afternoon's doodle features 3 species of Mole Salamanders.

The females of some populations of Mole salamanders exist only as females, and mate with males of multiple other species. They then patchwork those genes into their daughters. This process is called Kleptogenesis.

Been looking for an excuse to make some apple cider sangria again, especially since I'm right near an orchard that makes amazing cider.

Brought some to a gathering of old friends tonight. It was basically the only thing we drank and we drank every bit of it, so Perfect!
