#QuoteSunday

A long time ago on a network far, far away I started to post quotes I thought notable or relevant to current events. On Sundays. With the hashtag #QuoteSunday.

I wasn’t the first, merely carrying on a tradition I think started by the estimable @nitinkhanna.

It’s often fun to find one, unless I’m commenting on current events. But I still try.

A screenshot from January 2015 of some App.net (ADN) weekly events I participated in. #QuoteSunday being appropriate for today. Others shown are #WorkChat, #MondayNightDanceParty, #TuesdayChallenge, #WednesdayChallenge. Each equally rewarding.

Talking ADN

Talking Heads have had a major influence in my life. Subtle but major nonetheless. I’m now accustomed to the fact I’ll never see them play live; it’s taken me decades…

Prior to App.net’s shut down for good I’d hoped a song could be played during the final #MondayNightDanceParty. Due to an unfortunate typo by yours truly that didn’t happen. No matter, it’s this:

It sums up what I think of ADN. Especially poignant is… oh, listen to it!

Tidying up my emotions after ADN’s termination, here’s a song which I think looks forward:
