Also Lasso last night. Today, and I know this won't be everyone's cup of tea but keep in mind the main characters are designed to be split between loving and hating musicals, Schmigadoon!

^ This. Thanks Mikey. Christmas in July.

Yeah, White’s name is all that got me past the first episode, but I did think it laid the ground work in the second and I enjoyed its growing cringy-ness. It’s a limited series so we’ll see, but very hopeful. On the other end of hope, watched the pilot of Sexy Beasts, a dating show where the put sexy people with the worst personalities together to prove it’s “all about personalities”.

I think you have the Sieveking Omega stand. One of mine is also. The other is a newer, cheaper made, random brand X Omega stand (lots of options) that’s 1/7th the price and probably why no one stocks the Sieveking any longer (if they even make them). The amp stand, aka monitor/laptop stand, is made by Navaris, and dimensions work well with the GS-X Mini.

Still doesn’t suck.

Anyone else watching Mike White’s The White Lotus [HBO]? Two episodes out so far and building its awkward fun.

Forget taste. 😉 All you need to know is Quaker Oats asked America’s children who was best and Quake got spanked and discontinued. Quake then dug a hole to “down under”, slimmed down, and got a kangaroo sidekick. This gave the new team the confidence to relaunch Quake as Quangaroos and take on Quisp again. Big mistake (Coca-Cola wouldn’t learn the lesson). Discontinued again. It was like a slo-mo game run by marketers.

Quisp was better!

Atlantic’s The Uyghur Chronicles: One by One, My Friends Were Sent to the Camps https://www.theatlantic.com/the-uyghur-chronicles/ “When our turn came, we entered the second office. Güljan, from our neighborhood committee, was waiting for us. She had us sign a registry. In addition to our fingerprints, she now said that they would also be taking blood samples, voice samples, and facial images. My wife looked at me anxiously. Nearly everyone I knew from the labor camp where I’d been imprisoned two decades earlier had already been rearrested. My turn would clearly come soon.”
