Just had to use Shazam to remember a Sufjan Stevens song, so clearly I need to step down from my duties.

I’m a minister, and not a single funeral or wedding has passed that I haven’t called one the other.
I routinely call my son and my dog by their respective wrong names.

Texas: always independent until they need the government’s help.
NEW: President Biden says Greg Abbott and Dan Patrick delayed federal Hurricane Beryl aid getting to Texas. “I've been trying to track down the governor,” Biden said. Patrick, acting gov while Abbott is traveling in Asia, said he was "easy to find" and there was no delay.

Our teen, bless him, wants to watch The Boys. I'm kinda fine with it (at least he asked?), but I've told him to read the book, and I'll let him download the Prime app to stream it.

It's the ABCs of XPN today, and we've got some Lauryn Hill on right now and The Highwaymen earlier. Support your local radio stations, y'all, because they can still get weird.

Delaware has three counties, and two of them are Florida.
I am now struck with the horrifying realization that every state probably has its own Florida

I’m of the age where I’m constantly battling with the ice maker in this stupid refrigerator, and I can’t for the life of me figure out why sometimes it’ll just…stop working.

Independence Day annual re-watch is happening (obvs), and I’m always struck by optimism about the willingness of people to work together in the midst of a crisis, ya know?

Found a massive window leak during today’s storm, so that’s a fun project going into Fourth of July week.

I know who I’m voting for, so I passed on this thing and finished up “Sugar” instead, and I kinda think it was awesome.

We moved to the mid-Atlantic a few years ago, and I’m gonna say something anathema to my gulf coast and Georgia beach friends: Boardwalks at the beach are kinda awesome.
Why did we decide salt water needed to be a key component of taffy marketing

I really love the local independent station (WXPN), but “Armageddon’s Back in Town” is not the Drive-By Truckers song I’d have chosen for their “ABCs of XPN” special.

The Portal Tomb sounds like part of some terrible Dabo Swinney easter joke
The portal tomb may go from a house of the dead to a clumsy reconstruction offering shelter from the rain to cattle and hikers, but it doesn't lose any mystery. Its sense of the sacred and our need to project stories upon it is not diminished. – Dr. K. Brophy #StandingStones

I'm so broken by ITYSL that I had to stop myself from calling someone a "Bag Brother" when I saw that they had the same re-usable shopping bag at Trader Joe's this AM. Send help.

I still type "bl" in my browser to get to Bluesky, but the first page that always loads is "blutarsky," and I'm reminded over and over again we won't see anything from him this season, and I get bummed all over again.
