The Big Book of Blah (Blog)
July 6th, 2020
I support Black Lives Matter and am heartbroken about the callous disrespect for human lives and rights in our country.
It is also Pride Month, and much of the community has shifted its focus to “Back Lives Matters” instead. Some LGBTQ+ events are still happening online all across the US despite social distancing. Check your local chapter; mine is Bostonpride.org.
Today is my ex-best friend’s birthday. I have no idea if she ever tunes in, but she was here when I started the show in 1998 and one of the first listeners. Wherever you are, Happy Birthday, Terri!
It has been a while (Halloween) since I did episodes. No real good reason for that. Part of me was having a snit because I felt like I put a lot of work into these, and very few people listened to them. Part of it was I joined a raid team in my MMO, and it is very labor-intensive. I also picked up about 15hrs/week more at work during the pandemic.
I’ve been toying with the idea of making more daily posts. For example, features like “What’s that Sample” and “Music from Films.” I listened to many Podcasts while in quarantine, and it seems to be what they do. Stay tuned to see if I do that.
