Literally spent an hour talking sht about FB and how I’d get off all these apps if I could. Had her! She hands me the phone. 10 min later I promised her I’d google it and here we are four days later and I still don’t know… so 30s. I’m in my late 30s. What gen is this? 🙃
Next time someone asks me my age, I’m gonna tell them the story of how I talked my mom off FB (bc suddenly, like a neurotic mom, I’m living my dreams through *her) and then couldn’t figure out how to do it for her in the app

I have a mentoree who told her professor she had no interest in learning Tchaik bc of the sheer volume of times it had been done. She offered Coleridge-Taylor as an alternative and her professor accepted it.
Especially when I think about the sheer number of hrs we, as a studio, we’re made to listen/watch this concerto in school. Same shit from like 4 ppl a masterclass. Variety is the spice of life, and then you diversify it?? 👌🏽

Annaleigh Ashford might have stolen the show @SweeneyToddBway, but for us the true draw was @LadyJessMusic and the rest of the pit! (Actually, Annaleigh Ashford was truly amazing.)
gate-keeping Eastman but being too passive to say so & also not Black is wild .. doesn’t deserve full coverage on this platform but does deserve to be identified & laughed at
& WILL be a drinking topic at some point in the future
bc does it ever stop, classicals? Ever? 🙃
@NintendoAmerica@animalcrossing got a smooth 75,000 nook miles, 100,000+ bells, a customized home with a second floor and a basement. I have paradise planner, and the game is updated. PRO DECORATOR LICENSE IS NOT SHOWING UP SOMEONE PLEASE ADVISE. It’s been two weeks of trying
