Dolly Parton has been dropping one track at a time for her upcoming album . The newest track to drop? Her cover of "What's Up?" featuring Linda Perry.

And yes, as all of these covers have been, it's good. You can check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ruw0_o-tWzk

Can't wait to her the original songs she's written for this album.

Good morning!

Filbert is over here with some legit fears about losing interest in our passions.

Oh no. Am I getting from Filbert?

Good morning, and happy 2024!

Something I used to do on my socials in the past was post a little morning post about how thankful I am for anything I thought of that morning. I am going to start doing that again using the hashtag in case you want to mute / it's not your thing.

Today, let's start out by saying I am thankful that the Lord has entrusted me with my four wonderful children and my wife. I am lucky to have all of them in my life and love them all so much.

In case you didn't see it earlier, I posted about the game Densha De Go!! Hashirou Yamanote Sen (Go by Train!! Drive the Yamanote Line) on my Pixelfed account. You can check out the post (and boost, if you'd like...I know I would) here: https://pixelfed.social/i/web/post/663035428811957328

I was hoping to like it, but I also kind of bought it on a lark based purely on reviews / seeing it in action at Magfest.

So glad I did.

It's so very different than any game I've played before.

Here's another screenshot.

Good morning and Happy Wednesday!

Today is my official "Mastoversary." Now this account I made in November 2022, but my first Mastodon account as made today two years ago on Dot Social.

In these two years, my social media experience has been better. I've had more direct conversations with folks about so many things. Learned about more new music. Kept connected about politics, without as much of the...wild anger, bitterness, and screaming angrily into the void.

I am glad to be here with y'all.

Here's to the Fediverse.

I am watching Sailor Moon S: The Movie now, my first entrance into any Sailor Moon anime. I had recently read the short story manga that the movie is based on.

And, frankly, this may be the greatest anime of all time for this scene alone.

So, Fabricant 100 has ended and I've been wanting to put down my thoughts on it.

Basic summary of the series for those who don't know, the series is about fabricated humans. A scientist became obsessed with creating the perfect human. So, tried to do so by creating fabricants from the body parts of dead people. When he died, the fabricants became obsessed with obtaining the best "parts" from living people, killing them to modify their body for the better.

Enter Ashibi and Fabricant 100.

Do Retry was an interesting series. It was set in a post-World War II Japan with a sick sister and rough brother who gets pulled into underground boxing tournaments to try to raise money to help his sister.

The series followed Aozora as he tried to raise the money for his sick sister by boxing. The series progressively gets better as it goes on as Aozora learns to be a better boxer. It was an interesting, and grittier sports / boxing manga.

The International Museum Day event is happening on Moduland. Since it started, I feel I am finding my villagers far more active visiting the museum.

I found Kabuki spending a ton of time just staring at some classic paintings. They truly are beautiful.

Have your islanders been more active in the museum lately?

@To asked the following question: What are your favorite Comedy or Gag Manga/Anime?

So, let me see - I can't think of a good idea, but definitely for .

Favorite gag manga series: and .

Azumanga Daioh is a silly classic. Just...ridiculous.

Roboco is one of my favorite ongoing manga with goofy jokes week after week.

I leave you with a ridiculous Roboco screenshot.

Friend: Do you listen to (NAME) podcast?
Me: No, I...
Friend: Oh, you may like it (proceeds to describe podcast)
Me: Uhm, I don't listen to podcasts. Podcasts are basically talk radio for Millennials and I can't get into talk radio.
Friend: Oh
Me: :akkoShrug: You do you, tho.

Happy !

This week, we went to to do another music video themed photo shoot for you to guess.

We have Tiansheng, Lucky, and Kabuki dressed and performing as this late 80s to early 90s alt / grunge band.

Can you guess the artist and music video referenced here? Good luck.

Please like, share, and comment who you think it is.

Good morning.

It is a somber Tuesday after the incident on the Francis Scott Key Bridge. That is my local commuter bridge and the one I took to work daily for over a decade before getting my current, local job.

My BIL / SIL take it still take it. I am thankful their commute did not line up with the incident. We called them both when we saw the news early this morning to check. I am also thankful for those who were able to be saved so far out of the harbor.

I pray that more folks who fell in are found and saved.

So, I recently got a silly tuxedo t-shirt. And then decided to recreate it in the game.

Here is a side by side of real me and me.

I've been saying the Chef's name has been bad for years and I am FINALLY glad more people are coming out and saying that Kansas City needs to change their team name and stop all the racist iconography, chants, etc.

As I have for years, I will continue to refer to them as the Chefs.

As 2023 is coming to an end shortly, I'm going to go through and just randomly list off some favorites from the past year.

High speed. Minimal thoughts.

First - favorite new manga of 2023? Beat and Motion, Two on Ice, and Shojo Null. The first's about music; the second's about figure skaters; the last is set in a world of disposable cyborgs that are actuality sentient people with machines on them removing all sense of consciousness - with a sentient cyborg lead, a co-lead whose parent's were murdered for learning this truth, & good social commentary on cops.

Okay, did not expect to see a Lil Jon and Steve Aoki collab for a wild remix of "Get Low" called "Get Lower."

Okay, so another set of stats now that April is over.

As I've said before, I am posting concurrently to Pixefed and Instagram to see what the differences are.

Let's break it down by month first. Here are average likes by month for the year to date:
January - Insta 20 / Pixelfed 8
February - Insta 21 / Pixelfed 8
March - Insta 27 / Pixelfed 11
April - Insta 26 / Pixelfed 9

Year to date, we're averaging 23.7 likes per post on Insta and 9.1 likes per post on Pixelfed.

But, this is a thread, so let's go deeper.
