tom tom the pipers son: Times 6/7/26

Theatergoers Sink Into Disillusionment and Despair Grappling With Concerns Over Surging Oil Prices Amid Tear Gas and Tough Decisions, Sharing Their Secrets to What They Learned From Spending Their Weekends Punching People In States Where Life Is Better, Afraid to Make Child Psychiatrists Uncomfortable Who Want to Have Their Porsche and Judge It Too, Teaching Them About Fear, Catharsis, and Being Human In A New Ad Campaign That Tries to Make A.I. a Little Less Scary

♥ 1:00am
coelacanth∅:

↳ ralph @12:35

oh you're window's smaller than mine! upstateISH ny... not enough summer for good watermelon, and carrots and tomatoes would have to be well-established by now

coelacanth∅:

↳ tom tom the pipers son @1:14

oh nice! Immense Love for both of them.
i knew nothing about this but i couldn't have made it anyway. ♥ 1:20am
tom tom the pipers son:

↳ coelacanth∅ @1:18

dave mentioned it when he had hooker on the program ♥ 1:20am
coelacanth∅: atf i don't call your mic breaks "low energy"; i call them "chill"! 🎪 ♥ 1:22am
joe mulligan:

↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:59

nice! ♥ 1:23am
a___t___f:

↳ coelacanth∅ @1:20

i like chill! ♥ 1:23am
coelacanth∅:

↳ tom tom the pipers son @1:20

no doubt. -and it does seem slightly familiar, but if so i just relegated to my brain's trash bin, since i couldn't go anyway.   1:27am
ian: I see my usurper still haunts these message boards. I used the name coelacanth first, but never registered it. You know it and I know it..   1:28am
ian: Beautiful music by the way just came on here to say I enjoy the show   1:29am
ian: Perfect cat brushing soundtrack, fortunately, I happen to be brushing a cat ♥ 1:30am
a___t___f:

↳ ian @1:28

thank you! ♥ 1:30am
a___t___f:

↳ ian @1:29

yay! i wish i was brushing a cat now...   1:34am
ian: I probably drop in to the message boards once every several years… and I always see this person posting. I guess they are using the name more than I was, but on the other hand if I didn’t feel like somebody stole my name, I would probably post more often.   1:35am
ian: It’s a lesson in humility I suppose   1:36am
ian: My life is pretty amazing in general so I can afford to take the L on this one ♥ 1:37am
ian: It's only an L if you want it to be one 1:37am
spodiodi:

↳ Song: "Laurence Harvey" by "Rema-Rema"

Yes ♥ 1:37am
Spikey BXL: 🥁   1:39am
ian: Even Jordan missed some shots ♥ 1:39am
tom tom the pipers son:

↳ coelacanth∅ @1:23

was just saying….because that’s how i knew about it… he met with people in brooklyn botanical garden afterwards… wish i could have gone... ♥ 1:39am
tom tom the pipers son:

↳ joe mulligan @1:22

thx joe... 🎪 ♥ 1:40am
ian∅: Me too.   1:43am
ian: Imitation is flattering to the ego, but I try not to center my sense of well-being around my ego, that never leads to anything good. ♥ 1:46am
Spikey BXL:

↳ Song: "Side B" by "Mix Monster Menno"

lol at the sample
"ge gaat toch ni na de polis bellen hé"

flemish dialect imploring the listener not to call the cops

1:48am
spodiodi: Yr on fire atf!

I’ve been smiling and loving this whole show

♥ 1:49am
a___t___f:

↳ Spikey BXL @1:46

haha! glad to find out   1:49am
ian: I learned firsthand why so many athletes and celebrities wind up totally self-destructing. Fortunately, I was not so successful that I was allowed to completely self-destruct.. at least not till my student loans are paid off. But when you succeed at very competitive things, it’s hard not to start to believe your own press releases after a while.. ♥ 1:50am
a___t___f:

↳ spodiodi @1:48

thank ya :o)   1:51am
ian: Because the ego actually gets something solid to latch onto. I can always point to my trophy case and go. SEEE   1:51am
ian: Tangible evidence of my superiority granted by an impartial third-party! So nobody can tell me nothing ain’t that right ♥ 1:52am
Spikey BXL:

↳ a___t___f @1:49

Antwerp dialect, as to be expected from Dennis Tyfus   1:52am
ian: So yeah, it’s hard enough without people imitating me and flattering me like that ♥ 1:55am
a___t___f:

↳ ian @1:49

i do imagine it gets really stressful at a certain point! ♥ 2:04am
tom tom the pipers son: g’nite all… atf... ♥ 2:04am
Spikey BXL: nite tttps ♥ 2:10am
Spikey BXL: bananas are next for you ♥ 2:12am
a___t___f:

↳ Spikey BXL @2:10

i do already possess the strange (to some) trait of strongly preferring slightly green/sort of unripe bananas ♥ 2:12am
Spikey BXL:

↳ a___t___f @2:12

oh, I share that, I like it when there's still some bite to it ♥ 2:13am
Spikey BXL: same with pears ♥ 2:13am
a___t___f:

↳ Spikey BXL @2:12

exactly! ♥ 2:28am
Sasha: Is that the bass from Clubbed to Death??? ♥ 2:31am
coelacanth∅:

↳ Spikey BXL @2:13

i've practically given up on pears. it's ridiculous because they easily grow in this region, and easy to care for, but i think it's a few years since i've had a good one. they rot before they ripen...which is something y'all circumvent by eating them unripe! ♥ 2:34am
Spikey BXL:

↳ coelacanth∅ @2:31

so odd this lousy availability   2:35am
ralph: Also I think it tends to be better for you to eat the whole thing. Like I could swear I read the dandelion plant in its entirety is a whole protein. ♥ 2:35am
a___t___f: for a while i actually preferred pears over apples when it came to winter fruit. but then i started discovering all the different apple varieties ♥ 2:36am
a___t___f:

↳ ralph @2:35

i wanna look into that! i do like dandelion greens ♥ 2:36am
coelacanth∅:

↳ Spikey BXL @2:34

it is indeed. 25 years ago i could buy a few pears every month for years and they'd all be good. ♥ 2:38am
coelacanth∅: i ate a hunk of dandelion root once.
ONCE. ♥ 2:39am
coelacanth∅: in any case, complete or not, it would be very little protein.
there're better ways! ♥ 2:40am
a___t___f:

↳ Sasha @2:28

i'm not sure!   2:40am
ralph: Found it! I read this is Revered Roots by LoriAnn Bird. Good stuff. ♥ 2:43am
coelacanth∅:

↳ ralph @2:40

Thank you (www.thriftbooks.com...)
i want to read this!
...do you recall what she might've said about burdock? ♥ 2:46am
a___t___f: that looks cool! ♥ 2:46am
Sasha:

↳ a___t___f @2:40

Got it! It's from Massive Attack's 'Angel'. ♥ 2:47am
Sasha: The Machka song ♥ 2:47am
coelacanth∅: from what i read, many years ago, the dandelion greens (like most or all bitter greens) are good for your kidneys; the root is good for your liver. so certainly the whole plant is very nutritious. -or maybe medicinal. ♥ 2:49am
a___t___f:

↳ Sasha @2:46

ohhhh! ♥ 2:49am
coelacanth∅: (i take the root in capsules daily, but i rarely eat/take the greens. i should.) ♥ 2:51am
coelacanth∅: Thank you hyporealist!

'night

♥ 2:51am
Sasha: Last time i was on the chat here everyone was talking about broccoli (the greens, not the Coil song or the James Bond guy). When did wfmu turn into the vegetable board? ♥ 2:52am
a___t___f:

↳ coelacanth∅ @2:51

thank you for tuning in! gnight ♥ 2:52am
a___t___f:

↳ Sasha @2:51

lolllll   2:54am
ralph: It’s a fun book. It’s hard to know where to start with burdock because it offers so many gifts. Just hit after hit. 🎪 ♥ 2:56am
Yvang: Thank you ATF! 2:56am
spodiodi: Thank you, atf!!
Great show ♥ 2:57am
Spikey BXL: Thanks ATF!!! ♥ 2:57am
a___t___f: thank you everyone!! <3   2:57am
ralph: Freshest show around. Thank you ATF
