obviously what we need to do is add direct support for ActivityPub and ATProto so that we can properly federate with Mastodon and Bluesky

Re: Name a state with no Daylight Savings Time (Surprise, Arizona reviews)

According to my research it's Hawaii. And Arizona counts as a state but one of the reservations (Navajo, I looked it up) does observe it because part of the reservation goes into another state and they want everyone to be on the same time. Which I found interesting enough to waste space typing it o...

Super-soppers are working overtime to dry up pommie tears at Headingly. I hope they remind Johnny B to say “leave wikki” before he goes for a wander next time.

Personally I'm going to be ignoring the chord progression entirely and listening for sounds of royalty and road noises.

And we don’t need to use the whole progression do we? In that particular order? One or two notes scattered about should be fine yeah?

Re: Nur Ein XVIII, Round One: "Blind Spot"

In Singapore, some taxis have little signs warning drivers about checking their blind spots. My partner pointed this out when I told her the title. So - warning about blind spots became my theme. But with handclaps instead of taxi signs.

Re: Nur Ein XVIII, Round Zero: "Sink or Swim"

Slimeparty - this is pretty fun, but I feel like the mix could be a bit cleaner without losing the energy. At present it kinda has "hearing a live band from the bar next door" vibes. The song is strong enough to come through pretty well anyway though, and it's funny that you're submitting...

A slightly difficult one. He will burn in hell as a convicted pedophile. But - he was my favourite entertainer as a child. Caravan Ray was certainly inspired by him.
