May. 26th, 2022 10:26 pm1. Making headway with the scarves, but I'd love it if I could figure out how to knit socks - they look insanely complicated though. I watched a woman crocheting near me on the subway this morning - it was fairly empty. Has been the last couple of weeks - which is lovely.
Commute was (for a change) uneventful. For a moment, I thought I'd have issues since they had two people who had to been seen to for medical issues at the Carrol Street and Bergen Street Subway Stops. But that notification was around 3 pm. By the time I got there at 4:40, it was taken care of, and the train was right there at 4:42. (I got there quicker than usual - because I jogged across the street, and didn't have to wait for the incredibly long light. )

To her fans, Stevie Nicks, who turns 74 today, is more than a rock-and-roll icon; she’s a kind of spiritual guide, offering what to listen to when you need help listening to yourself. “When you keep music in your life, I think it just changes you and pulls you out of a deep hole,” Nicks says. “Whenever I'm depressed, I just put on music.”
For a while now - I've been listening to music all day long at work and during my commute. Even when I worked remotely, I'd put the music on and occasionally throw myself dance party breaks. It keeps me sane. It also lowers my blood pressure, calms me, and makes me less anxious and occupies the part of my brain that likes to worry over things.
Music and meditation have helped me tremendously.

Seth Green lost his NFT Bored Ape in a Twitter Pfishing Scam and is now trying to convince Darkwing to give it back to him
Seth Green is in a hostage negotiation for the “kidnapped” Bored Ape star of his new animated NFT show.
After Green’s NFT collection was swiped this month, he lost the commercial rights to his ape because someone else now owns it and isn’t giving it up.
Near as I can figure - NFT is the techno version of beanie babies.

I shouldn't find this funny, but I do. Sharing in case you do too.

I told mother.
