Trying to create an elephant plush pattern. My first fabric mock-up showed some flaws in my design but it sure made a cute little alien.

Tfw ur first flight gets delayed and it bungles the rest of your flights so u gotta reschedule but you actually lost ur two tiny nerve-wracking layovers and instead get a healthy 3.5 hour one and only end up landing 20 minutes later than ur og flight

The Last Show We Played.

And by far, it was the best damn show I’ve put on.

What timing it was too, for the day after the bar closed due to COVID-19. I played alongside another female lead singer named Tanya and her band Failing Up, and another all male group called Static Age, both of which I could see playing Warped Tour on a shared stage with. Unfortunately, Give You Nothing GAVE US NOTHING(lol) and didn’t make the show because the drummer’s family doc said corona virus made it too dangerous to travel, so Domino and the Derelicts had to go on first.

Along with all the album songs, we played 2 new songs called “I Am Fire” and “Stay”, which we nailed, so the 3 and a half hour practice the night before didn’t go to waste. Also, people that donated to our now delayed Portland trip got to see where their money was going. 

I remember performing as a 2 piece at the Caravan when my drummer Bill and I first started out, and in recent years we’ve gained not only band members/skills but a decently huge following, to the point where at recent shows the line was too big to get in. I know waiting to make it big will pay off, just gotta get through this quarantine improving with each day that comes.

Thinking about posting a video soon, would you watch?

It’s weird that it only let me sorta record on if but Ima take that as a message from spirit to save the message for later. My recordings. You can hear when I make sounds but not when I talk lol. #failingup #learnedlesson #nexttimeoutsidemyspiritualspace. #humnerlife #williamkhumphrey https://www.instagram.com/p/B2t5fA7ncUV/?igshid=31uepdb0a0v0

“The real test is not whether you avoid this failure, because you won’t. It’s whether you let it harden or shame you into inaction, or whether you learn from it; whether you choose to persevere.” – Barack Obama . ❤️if you choose to persevere! .

AT&T will punish Disney+ viewers

AT&T epitomizes the failure of America's corporate regulation. After the company spent millions on dirty tricks to help Trump's FCC Chairman Ajit Pai kill Net Neutrality, it went on a stock-buyback spree while reducing its network improvement budget.

Capex continued to suffer, even after the company got a $20B tax cut from the Trump tax deal.

One thing the company DID spend on was acquisitions, going on a buying spree that included acquiring Time-Warner and Directv.

Randall Stephenson, the CEO who oversaw this plan, got paid $32m for his trouble, even as the company haemorrhaged money and subscribers, as his plan to "synergize" telcoms and entertainment failed spectacularly.

https://pluralistic.net/2020/03/13/go-katie-go/#failingup

Stephenson collected a golden parachute and bailed on AT&T, but the synergy plan lives on, merging every strand of AT&T's monopolistic behavior.

They're going to exempt HBO Max from broadband bills, while charging for rivals like Disney+ and Netflix.

https://www.theverge.com/2020/6/2/21277402/hbo-max-att-data-caps-netflix-disney-plus-streaming-services-net-neutrality

Disney has bet the farm on Disney+: without theme parks, movie theaters, hotels or cruise ships, the company is hoping to leverage a $6/month teaser rate for subscriptions into a position so dominant that cable operators won't dare mess with them.

This is Netflix's plan as well: to be so well-loved by cable subscribers that cable operators won't dare to mess with them.

https://variety.com/2018/digital/news/netflix-ceo-says-u-s-rollback-of-net-neutrality-rules-is-no-big-deal-1202874570/

This is not a good plan.

AT&T is desperate, cord-cutting is epidemic, the company has a massive overhang from its attempt to create a vertical monopoly, and it has never, ever been shy about making its customers angry at it.

As HBO Max boss Tony Concalves told The Verge: "The network is the plumbing, and the content is the water. And you’re seeing water and the plumbing kind of coming together."

This is going to get ugly.

I picked up this gem for my teenage son (and me). 😊Admitting fear of failure takes courage. Can’t wait to dive into this with him. #momboss #mombosslife #failure #failingup #perspective #fear #bookstagram #books #reading #wellnesswarrior #mindfulness #parenting #mom #life #lessons #mindfulparenting #lovemyson #thoughts #success https://www.instagram.com/p/BofqIEsnQ99/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=gq4zfin2xlux

A couple of pics from my game today with Jamie from @mutantsnakeeyes. He had an evil Sacrificial Offering list that I cunningly out-deployed. (Read: accidentally deployed in a way that didn’t give him much room to manuever. #FailingUp) Lucky for me, Fulgrim didn’t get a chance to absolutely destroy my entire army by himself. (Tho he did solo my grave wardens pretty easily.) what a smackdown with a great guy. 10/10 would fight again. #warhammer #30k #warhammer30k #horusheresy #deathguard #emperorschildren (at Warboar Games)
