Blagueur, musician. I have delusions of writing. Also I play viola.
The people have spoken. #RucksackEffluvia it is.
Spread the word, folkies! The new #CatchyHashtag has been determined! π£ π£ π£ π― π π π
@groofay I grok #RucksackEffluvia more.
In other news, despite my best efforts, I am still exactly one follower behind my birbsite account.
Maybe it was just destined to be this way...the bird, even through severe neglect, remains triumphant by a hair's breadth.
This situation is just, like...it's really speaking to me, man. It's gettin' deep, you know what I mean? Dude.
Alright, today's mission is to make a #catchyhashtag for realsies. To manufacture a hashtag of optimal catchiness.
How's about #RucksackEffluvia?
Or, uh... #IAmNotAGingerbreadMan?
If you never get any visitors you never need to tidy up.
Making an enormous mug of tea and sitting down to write a blog post.
I'm kinda new to this blogging thing, and I'm getting to the part where it's difficult to figure out what to write about next.
(It's a blog about absurd art/writing/music. I know. How goddamn predictable of me.)
To be honest, of all the days I've ever lived, this is definitively one of them.
@Doppio On Mastodon, shouldn't that be a tuskache?
And would #tuskache count as a #CatchyHashtag ?
This incoherency brought to you by my own tuskache, pain relievers, and several days lack of sound sleep.
@KevinMarks nails it in his 'Mastodon Theory':
"In a classic silo, who you share a server shard with is an implementation detail, but choosing an instance does define a neighbourhood for you. Choosing to join witches.town or awoo.space or botsin.space will give you a different experience from mastodon.social"
Somehow mastodon's instance architecture puts the human element back into the center of the digital experience.

In other news, one of my favorite albums of 2016 finally got put up on the Spotify: the Satie album "Socrate" by Barbara Hannigan (soprano) and Reinbert de Leeuw (piano).
By the way, thank you to @DaveHiggins for reminding me of the #catchyhashtag.
I hadn't forgotten, obviously. I just let it slip for a bit. Given it time to ferment, if you will.
just remembered that I'm not doing birdsite for the week. shoot.
oh well. I'm just gonna start now.
A recording of Sauguet's "Musique pour Cendrars" (for baritone and viola)...shame the violist is so wimpy and/or relegated to the background. They could have played twice as loud throughout and never overwhelmed the vocalist.
Listening to Henri Sauguet, a 20th century French composer who has no business being as neglected as he is.
Also listening to the next-door neighbor mowing their front lawn, because I tragically don't live in a recording studio (I can always dream). This neighbor, at this moment, is more worthy of neglect than is Sauguet.
well that was a good AMA. so many hundreds of questions. y'all are the grooviest of grooves.
trapped in a small city/big town and have several hours to waste, #AMA.
I need to be more cautious. My carefully cultivated pretentious fictionality is becoming a little too concrete for my liking.
My hope is that this causes my birbfollower count to drop catastrophically, as people read it and are like, "Oh, I'd better unfollow Groofay because nobody else is gonna pay attention to his tweets" but like thirty people do exactly that.
Naruto just followed me.
I refuse to believe it.
I mean, this is birbsite we're talking about, not the Ensemble Intercontemporain.
Although, if the EIC is following me under cover as a porn spam bot, I do hope they recognize and enjoy my sense of humor.
