Excellent pick.
Fun facts I discovered while queuing up this video: you were the last person to play something from Dessa, and that was in 2014. Much to my surprise, I've not ever played anything by her.
you tried.
Ha! I actually think the Audiotree this performance today's video is from is a lot stronger than the Tiny Desk Concert I'd wanted to include at the time.
I'm undecided.
But really, that's only because I still haven't put forward much of an effort to listen to her. It feels kind of weird since we went to high school together (not that we hung out or anything). Also, and more annoyingly, she's like the 8th person now I went to high school with worthy of a Tweeter checkmark.
This made me chuckle though:
Regarding today's book, I was reminded this morning that illustrator Frank Morrison won a silver medal in the Society of Illustrators Original Art show. This award is not well known outside illustrator/book geek circles, but it's always interesting to see what comes out on top.
I still don't understand what sean meant by "(note: slow)"
That it loads slowly?
huh. well, i guess.
(you're really rocking that LTE/★ ratio this week)
yep.
Wait, are we going LTE/★ now, or LTE/Number of Rankings. Because those are different things, and now I want to know how they compare!
sorry, i meant the latter. was just using that as a shorthand but i can see how that's confusing.
Philo, you are focusing on the wrong thing. What's important is that I went from "not even close to 'amazing'" to "really rocking that . . . ratio" overnight!
Broke into the top ten. Right now at sixth.
🔥🔥🔥
Yes, sean's LTE easily rates a three fire comment.
trying to work out the conversion rate. gimme a second.
It's the same ratio as Stanley Nickels to Unicorns
I was looking for a beach games episode "see if there's a conversion chart" clip, but your response is spot on. 1 Schrute buck.
Got to be near the top for video:CoC comment ratio for a day.
Challenge accepted. It might be a while to figure out the right incantation.
As amazing as this is, I also want to put it out there that I'm TOTALLY cool with additional votes on this video!
There's a video?!?
Done!
Woohoo! As the one who requested 1-10 star ratings for LTEs, it's only fair that you occasionally rate a video! 😉
Right. Most pages on the WGOM load in under a quarter of a second. The tags list takes a lot longer. The first time it was exactly eight seconds and this time it was 4.8.
can we get 1-10 star ratings for each LTE?
4/10 - places too much responsibility on me to rate more things.
Dido.
are you trying to work Relegation into WGOM?
Couldn't you just reply using star emojis? Or use DG's newly invented fraction system?
⭐⭐⭐1/2
Dido.
use DG's newly invented fraction system
10/10 - gives me undeserved credit for inventing fractions.
🤣
I went straight to the library's website when I saw this, and there was a copy available. Score!
Ooooh, does this make me an influencer? 😉
I'd say so, yes.
And the useful type, not one of those "for the 'gram" types
Awwww, this just makes my day!
