    <content type="html">This past few days I've been listening to The Who in the car, and keep coming back to this line:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Like broken glass, we damage &lt;br /&gt;even in defeat&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think that's going to be my 2025-2029 motto.  As we enter a season of dangerous and corrupt authorities in various places, many of them backed by a vocal percentage of the populace, let's do as much damage as we can, as often as we can, to every injustice and every goal they have.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=krait&amp;ditemid=317873" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/&gt; comments</content>

    <content type="html">Dug out my music and started building some playlists for the car, which I've been putting off due to the complexity involved.  (True facts: I am &lt;i&gt;right now&lt;/i&gt; using &lt;b&gt;THREE&lt;/b&gt; computers.  I took pictures.)  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once I finished burning a couple of driving CDs, though, I started poking around through all the stuff I was glad to see but that didn't end up on a disc.  So much music!  So long since I last heard any of it!  I'd forgotten some of ~~feelings~~ attached to certain songs that I used to mainline (thank you, O Repeat button!) when in the throes of writing inspiration.  (Not my standard method, but I've still used it more than once.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sadly, in case anyone was wondering why I've been so silent: I have written possibly 100 words in the last month or more; I'm going to spend my next day off transferring some music to my laptop, in an attempt to spur me back onto the creative track!  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Can't hurt.  Even if all I get out of it is a tendency to sing songs nobody recognises under my breath at work.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="cut-wrapper"&gt;&lt;span style="display: none;" id="span-cuttag___1" class="cuttag"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b class="cut-open"&gt;(&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b class="cut-text"&gt;&lt;a href="https://krait.dreamwidth.org/169853.html#cutid1"&gt;TL;DR  End result: Earworm Attack.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b class="cut-close"&gt;&amp;nbsp;)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="display: none;" id="div-cuttag___1" aria-live="assertive"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=krait&amp;ditemid=169853" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/&gt; comments</content>
