The funny thing about the memories that pop up for me on Snapchat or Google Photos or whatever is that I've deleted all the pictures of my exes. But not of their pets.
So I'll have a video or photo of me playing with a dog and I'll have to figure out whose pet it was.
Unfortunately, I also pet random people's dogs, so I can never really be sure.
(I don't remember this at all)

there's a song i heard once, while showering, in 2019, on a music application i no longer use, which was streaming out songs at random. It had a really strong, thumping rhythm. i think it was fast enough you coulda done CPR to it, or maybe just slightly slower. all i remember of the lyrics was that it said once, or perhaps several times "on a row-boat" thump thump thump thump thump (👈 the quick rhythm). it had that kind of alt, indie, folksy feeling to it that a lot of music i listened to then (and now) had. sorta like Blitzen Trapper
when i heard it in the shower i had that odd sort of "i don't like this song now, but if i hear it again i'll probably start to like it" feeling that happens to me fairly frequently. i made a note to myself to look at the recently played songs on the application, and write that one down, and to listen to it again because why not enjoy music! why not!
well, i was showering to get ready for class. i left. i forgot to check. the song has vanished into the cracks of digital algorithms that have probably been replaced and retooled several times over by this point. as i remember it, i start remembering my memory of it, recalling not the original listening of it, but my recollection of recalling remembering listening to it, and the fragment of song i have, no matter how small, gets more distorted, gently warped to accommodate my musical taste (which is itself, impermanent, ever-changing) more and more over time.
THIS is only notable because every time i tell friends and family about this song, the reaction is nearly unanimously "oh, let me try finding it" and various music apps are searched for any song mentioning a row boat in any capacity. a few months ago, i told my family, and we spent an hour after dinner where everyone took turns playing songs which mentioned row boats (some very good) while i listened for a moment before saying, over and over "no—it Thumps. the song Thumps."
and it has occurred to me that at some point, the song will be lost to me entirely (which is not a huge loss! i did not like the song Yet. i only felt the potential to like it, the same way I feel about New York, I Love You But You're Bringing Me Down by LCD Soundsystem) either because i have forgotten it entirely, or because my memory has created a new song which i like a little more, but which has never existed, so that if somebody ever properly found the song and played it for me, or I came across it myself, i might only passingly consider its familiarity before dismissing it as pale imitation, perhaps inspired by the Definitely much better song i am looking for (which does not fully exist, even in my own head.)
#rare personal post#this is not bad btw its very funny#my memory is not air tight but thats fine it doesnt need to be#and genuinely it was sweet when my family all tried their best to help me on this extremely doomest quest to find a song i heard once#five years ago#this does not matter to anything at all i just needed to jot it down somewhere and tumblrs public diary format is so convenient

Nearly five years ago, an intelligent, impassioned man by the name of Jon Stewart spoke on behalf of all 9/11 responders to a representative - and partial - panel of congressmen. It was strong. It was sad. It was damning. And it was telling. Watch it:
youtube
At the time - the latter half of the Trump presidency - Mitch McConnell was the Republican Majority Leader in the Senate...
McConnell was notorious for his uncompromising actions on issues that bolstered Republican stances and thwarted all others. And the 9/11 responders were Not. His. Problem...
Are you still reading this?
At the 5:50 mark of Stewart's address, Jon singles out a Mr Johnson - who is currently Speaker of the House Mike Johnson - for belittling the issue, for blowing them off, and for doing nothing, which was how all Republicans were falling in line at the time...
In terms of actual work for the good of the people, Mike Johnson was singled out for his do-nothing demeanor back then, just as he has proven himself to be do-nothing today. And Jon Stewart just continues to be prescient!
Stewart's speech worked wonders, eighteen YEARS after 9/11, and after the matter spent most of the Trump presidency getting absolutely no consideration at all...
It's been five years since then, and they - like Jon - keep telling us who they are!
[EDIT] I'm changing my tags. Instead of using mostly keywords from what is written, I'm going to experiment with tags that maybe share some appeal. Wish me luck!

I made a little side blog to post about music and maybe post some music fan art because sometimes you hear a song about a cowboy that's never seen the ocean but god he wants to so he gets up and goes and it completely changes your whole outlook on everything like yeah.....YEAH!!!!! go to the ocean cowboy!!!! I believe in you!!!!!
#i didnt actually make a new sideblog this was a blog i had from awhile ago#that was just. empty. and i might as well use it for something! like live blogging variety shows that these two musicians showed up on#five years ago

Had one of those moments of knowing how Yukari Yakumo must feel about 50% of the time tonight.
You put in obvious, silly jokes, and yet people *still* take your little diagrams that break the 4th wall seriously...

The Return of the Banana Peel: A Slippery Saga
Five years ago, I penned a post about the underestimated power of the banana peel—yes, that comedic trope of yore that has sent many a cartoon character flying. Back then, I mused on how life has a way of tossing these metaphorical peels into our path, forcing us to slip, slide, and often fall flat on our faces. Ah, the good ol’ days of thinking that a banana peel was the worst fate one could…

Just like how the bitch at Puerto Rico hid all the shit at an abandoned airport! I bet you these people STILL vote blue! The democrats don't care about normal people! Why do you think they hid these water bottles?
