This has the same vibe as when you read the reviews on something, and it's obvious the company wrote the review themselves, and then responded to themselves.

Putting this out there for @npr.org's Tiny Desk Contest! Got a full set of new songs recorded and will post the rest soon. 🙂

And now for something fun: A few photos in this week’s @inlander.com about local Spokane artist Kristin Robbins’ work and her art opening tonight at Entropy from 5-9 pm. www.inlander.com/culture/kris...

The last two nights, my boyfriend has come downstairs to ask me to "turn down the bass" so tonight I am listening to this album, just so I can say "actually, there is no bass on this album." This is what it's like to live with me. 🙃

Found a signed picture of Ruth Gordon 🤍 #haroldandmaude #rosemarysbaby #ruthgordon
