yamamanamaThese are some new thoughts I had regarding radio. I didn't share them with Phyllis' owner nor the woman in the blue windbreaker, so I'm not going to do any more ninja edits over there. I looked up WAAF's playlists to see if they played any Days of the New, and if they did, if it was Touch, Peel, and Stand, and they didn't, but they did play two Evanescence songs in a row and I'm weirded out by this because I don't think they played Evanescence back when they were a new thing and I didn't think there'd be more than one Evanescence song on their rotation, and I thought bands with female vocals were anathema. Stereogum says it was because of the Telecommunications Act of 1996.
I think I can count the bands with female vocalists I heard on WAAF on my fingers.
I also checked to see if they played Limp Bizkit recently and they didn't but they seem to play Kid Rock a lot. They haven't played any new Deftones or any Deftones songs at all but that makes sense. Instead of going back to My Own Summer after going through the White Pony singles a la Days of the New, they stopped playing Deftones until Minerva. This has nothing to do with perceived quality because they played We're Not Gonna Take It and Cum On Feel The Noize in one hour. I think they go out of their way to play the worst 80s music they can find.
Bay State Rock is still a thing but the stuff played doesn't show up on Tunegenie.

Seagull food is haunting my dreams. Not the dream I had before going to the wildlife center, that was the sort of dream you don't ever want to wake up from.
And the strange thing is I have no idea who I was with in that dream. Someone I just recently met or someone only in the deepest recesses of my memory or a composite of various relations or...
A few days before that, I dreamt I was at the wildlife center, mixing together seeds and fish.
Thankfully Miranda and Anya (or perhaps Annia) made the food for the animals in med ward. Except for the bobwhite's food but that's just greens, mealworms, and game bird feed.
Somebody brought us really limp carrots.
Ziggy got a haircut and a bandana. Zack said he acted embarrassed at first and wouldn't go inside and was checking himself out in the mirror and either he thought he looked good with short fur or concluded that there are other dogs out there that went through the same thing.
A few weeks ago, I saw this cart with a chainsaw attached to it that was used for irrigation, which would be great in a zombie apocalypse. Michael says that zombies are the least threatening apocalypse because they're basically just humans without any advantages. Now, if Skynet was using the zombies as a diversion, that would be another thing.
She mentioned her name but I promptly forgot it. Lindy or Lindsey or something. Recently, she saw saw a ruby-throated hummingbird dancing and the female was sitting up in a tree, like "eh." She told of a phoebe and a cowbird that tried to take over her nest. Actually, we think a snake ate the phoebe's eggs because they're the only thing that would eat an egg whole. Maybe an oviraptor but they're quite extinct and they're from Mongolia and maybe they didn't eat protoceratops eggs but were actually tending to their own eggs.
A raccoon peeked his head out of a box while some interns were weighing him or keeping him in the box while they cleaned his cage out or I don't know.
The cygnet vomited in terror and the gosling ate the vomit.
Some of the larger ducklings are bullying the smaller ducklings and not letting them eat. I feel like I'm in opposite world, where ducks are assholes and swans are beautiful birds with lovely personalities. Or who knows, maybe in Opposite World, swans grow up to be really nice birds that look like exceptionally ugly turkey vultures.
The ducks keep swimming even when they're up against the edge of the pool.
Sarah is from New Jersey and grew up in Singapore, which I think qualifies as a megacity in Asia but wasn't exhibited in Megacities Asia. I think Lianne is from New Jersey too. Sarah talked about someone stalling in a four way intersection. I can't think of any worse places to stall, except for railroad tracks, and in that case, you abandon the car.
There was a woman with blue hair and cherry blossom tattoos and two triangles, one on each wrist, one solid black and one an outline but I don't know her name or even why she was there because she vanished after rounds. Maybe she was buying us greens. Maybe she was visiting. Maybe she had a pet that needed to be tended to.
Lauren has tattoos of black flowers on her hands and arms. It looks really cool, like fingerless gloves. She's a vegetarian and has been a vegetarian since she was twelve but doesn't mind cutting up mice and chicks for the fox and raccoons to eat.
Cristina is from Ecuador. Ecuadorian food has a lot of rice. Rice with beans, rice with chicken, rice with fish, rice with potatoes. They do have ceviche but it's different from Peruvian style ceviche and they eat it with rice on the side, of course. Also, they like plantains with rice and possibly olives and pigeon peas, which reminds me of Puerto Rican food. Wikipedia's picture of Ecuadorian ceviche depicts it as being made with tomato sauce. Somebody said she should make us an Ecuadorian dish, as long as she doesn't use the fish bucket to make ceviche. That would be a crime against humanity.
One person had a bat earring, one had a snake pendant and knows people with octopus pendants. I've seen someone wearing a Lego octopus as a pendant. Or rather, I've seen a photograph of someone wearing a Lego octopus as a pendant.
Anya is right: we should wear name tags. She was at the MFA recently but not to see Megacities Asia.
She doesn't want to intern at a zoo because that's all cleaning poop. Or maybe that was Miranda or Taylor or Sarah. Or maybe that was everyone's stance. Anya, or was it Taylor, has four cats and a horse and wants a dog.
Sarah took care of raccoons at a place in New Jersey or something and everything's in the same room and the raccoons chitter and screech at them while they're making food.
Miranda says Paris is on her bucket list. Just see it before it's part of the brave new world of National Front run France. I'm not sure what their stance on art is but I can't imagine it being anything less than hostile.
There's a finch in boarding. his partner died recently, he prolapsed or herniated his organs through his cloaca and we (not including me) had to put them back in. I wondered if he was one of those birds that just gives up on life when their mate dies.
Shannon, I thank, has finches. They're not talkative, just pretty.
A raccoon came to us with second degree burns because he was stuck in a fireplace or he was living in a fireplace and people tried to smoke him out or something like that.
If you're going to eat raccoon poop, make sure it's fresh poop.
This is the cutest fox picture ever.
burning question: if a giant brogmoid were holding up the world, where would he stand?
