Is there a word for that feeling you get when you’ve spent ages writing alt-text for a photo, and checked it repeatedly. You post your shiny new toot. Or toot your shiny new post. You go back and look at it later, and the thing that JUMPS out at you is the spelling mistake/missing word. Asaaagh. Every.Bloody.Time.

Compilation of 80s music videos and ...I love them. People think the 80s had the worst music? 90s were meh with some flashes of brilliance. And has pop music even changed since the 2000s? Clear channel garbage: you're wrong.

@flexghost Danny Wilson, “The Second Summer of Love”, 1989, sparkling water. They were a great live band too.

Four of our rescues. From the left, Charlie, grey tabby, crippled back legs. Biting and hissing are his preferred means of communication. T-Lo, black tripawd, rescued from a truck stop. Henry, a very shy orange rescue, born under a shed and rescued by the owners of a local Thai restaurant. Tiny Sir, orange and white, rescued as a kitten. Seen chasing cars in the street.

Tiny Sir the cat, who was tiny when he came to us from the rescue centre, and Clover.

@RickiTarr Chuck Dickens, and they’d all be named Nancy, Oliver, Ebenezer or Pip.

is acting when they are being recorded.

It’s so easy to get wrapped up in tempo and pitch when performing a piece, especially when it’s an original song that you’re still trying to work out parts of the melody. But even if you manage to land all your lyrics on the beat and hit the right notes, I find that a recording can still sound lifeless or weak.

I try to address this by “acting”, by being the character that would be telling the story or singing that song, by channeling their emotions into the performance.

I heard a cover band once play Enter Sandman by Metallica. They nailed it, note for note, but even though the vocalist was in time and in key, they didn’t sound the slightest bit angry. This made the performance feel… somewhat unsatisfactory. I feel it needs to be sung with red hot fury and blind hatred in the words. Their performance has stuck with me, and it’s resulted in me making a conscious effort to embody some kind of character for each song.

So anyway, I’m a zombie in my entry.

@dgar I saw Pink Floyd perform "The Wall" in 1980. You want "somewhat unsatisfactory", they nailed it. Soulless, lifeless, and dull too.

Seriously heard someone saying they don't listen to many black artists, because they aren't really into rap. Bitch please, feel free to share songs from Black artists from any genre. Here is one of my favorites, if you like this song please check out her other work:

I have no idea why but I listen to Def Leppard pretty much every week. The drummer still has two arms in this one, so enjoy kids!

@flexghost this is one genre that completely passed me by, all that incessant REO Speedforeigner twaddle proved too much. Daryl Hall had some hair, so ‘Sacred Songs’ and a glass of 19 Crimes Snoop Dogg blend.

@flexghost nah, but hair metal completely eluded me, but I didn't want to miss your Friday evening fun !

I kind of miss when Bond movies were completely ridiculous. There would be some woman named Iva Wetpussy, and she'd not wear bottoms the whole movie with no explanation. But we need to make this more inclusive, so there also needs to be a man named Colin Allbutts that wears chaps the whole time, and an Ace named Ima Notinterested, who actually gets all the work done.

A goddess on a mountain top

Clover is in her terrible twos, and seems to have decided that being a cat bed is an act of rebellion that will not go unnoticed. Tiny Sir the cat says it’s very comfy there. #CloverTheLeonberger #Leonberger #dogsofmastodon #catsofmastodon
