Here is another quiz that is well done to determine your Magic: The Gathering mana colors.
The one and only. ;)
God Lives Underwater - From Your Mouth
I always thought this band was underrated. They broke up after the singer unexpectedly died.
I'm a middle school teacher and generally very permissive with my students when it comes to using the bathroom. That being said, bathroom breaks must be managed. Students routinely go into the the bathrooms to fight, smoke weed, vape, have sex, and other nefarious activities. In a perfect world I would love for my students to be able to get up and go when it was necessary, however, as a teacher I have to keep tabs on whose in and out of my classroom.
Hum - "Little Dipper" (1995)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z2TOcWTQpBQ
This is a really cool song from the album You'd Prefer an Astronaut. I've read that this track was the inspiration for the Deftone's "Change (In the House of Flies)."
“Fish-fingers all in a line.” 😂
A great track from an amazing and influential album.
Personally, I’d probably rank this album within my top 5 favorites.
My dad and I played the absolute balls off of this game on the NES when I was a kid. Playing FF1 with my father is one of my favorite gaming memories.
We made it to nearly the finish, but never completed it.
Not bad considering we didn’t have the game’s manual, a strategy guide, or the internet.
Pavement - "Range Life" (1994)

A chill indie rock track from Pavement's 1994 Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain.
One of my absolute favorites. It’s been a while since I watched it, but I remember really liking some of the music they used in the series. In particular all the classic punk music in the scenes with Cameron.
I'm on iPhone currently, but this is my launcher of choice on Android. It's so clean!
Hüsker Dü - "Don't Want to Know If You Are Lonely" (1986)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eoKeH7JYE48
A great song from early alternative/punk band Hüsker Dü's 1986 album Candy Apple Grey. If you enjoy this track I highly recommend you give Hüsker Dü's 1984 album Zen Arcade a listen as well.
Well, not really. Oklahoma is a deeply red state, but it is more liberal in areas like Oklahoma City, Tulsa, and the university towns. I've always gotten the impression that people living in the panhandle were a different breed of conservative psycho though.
Oklahoman here! I’ve personally haven’t spent much time in this part of the state. It’s was historically referred to as “No Man’s Land” if that gives you any idea. The panhandle has a much more arid, high plains type climate than other parts of the state. I believe there are literal sand dunes out that way. Oklahoma’s highest point, Black Mesa, is in the panhandle. Im told Black Mesa is a great camping spot for star-gazing, but I’ve never been. As far as I’m aware it’s mostly right-wing but jobs living in that area. I seem to recall a few local news stories about people in that part of the state making a big stink about trans kids trying to use the bathroom and so forth.
Posting a classic.
Ah, that’s right. After I posted that I thought to myself that as Welshmen The Manic Street Preachers probably wouldn’t appreciate being lumped in with Britpop.
Suede is my favorite of the lot.
Do the Manic Street Preachers count as Britpop?
If so, they are my favorite.
Three decades ago, with the West recently victorious in the Cold War and liberalism triumphant, it was natural to assume that liberal social systems are largely self-ordering. But just about every social and political development since then has shown...
An interesting essay by author Jonathan Rauch on the value of intermediary institutions in Western liberal democracies.
