If you happen to have the Apple News app, head to the "Games" section to solve one of my crossword puzzles! (It's the feature puzzle on 7/20.)

It's titled "Pair-adoxical," and it's pretty smooth and beginner-friendly. Hope you enjoy it ✏️

@sho_wada Deep cuts are the best!
I like how he goes between major and minor in that one, like he does in Things We Said Today

My faves are Magneto and Titanium Man and Call Me Back Again (I love it when he just lets it rip) 🎤

@sho_wada I happen to like that old-guy vibe -- "Calico Skies" is one of his prettiest, most honest songs.

Curious to know: what's your favorite Venus and Mars track?

@glooobe It's a pleasure to help you learn!

Today, on my way home, I was stopped by a random gentleman who told me that he liked my "large forehead" and told me it meant that I "think too much." He then segued (with disturbingly remarkable ease) into trying to get me to join some mystic religion.

[Tom Kain (トム・ケイン) @tmkain]

@znQZhwKv5wnat3y It was "contours"! That was a tough one to catch! Good job.
I think I said "The contours of the problem stretch deep..."
(I used "nuanced" and "contour" because they're both from French--it was a tie-in to another part of the lesson 🇫🇷 )

C. S. Lewis, stop overthinking it and just act like a good person

[Tom Kain (トム・ケイン) @tmkain]

@glooobe Haha, no. That was pure coincidence!

[Tom Kain (トム・ケイン) @tmkain]

@znQZhwKv5wnat3y No worries at all! It's a privilege to be under the microscope, especially when I know what I say might be helping somone😊

Thanks so much for listening.

[Tom Kain (トム・ケイン) @tmkain]

@Komaniecki_R Good man. I admire your dedication to the craft.

[Tom Kain (トム・ケイン) @tmkain]

@Komaniecki_R Excellent choice! When you sing it, do you go for the high note at the end or just scrap it so you don't risk waking the baby?

[Tom Kain (トム・ケイン) @tmkain]

@znQZhwKv5wnat3y Well done on all three!

[Tom Kain (トム・ケイン) @tmkain]

@DanHayesMLB If you as much as flinch like you're thinking about going to second--like perceptibly make the very beginning of a move that way--the umpire has grounds to call you out. Probably the right call.

[Tom Kain (トム・ケイン) @tmkain]

@Komaniecki_R I was going to comment about that trumpet solo--that alone makes every listen worthwhile.
