I poke my head in here once in a while but my time away has made me understand just how great a medium social media can be to fuel anxiety and how terrible a medium it is (right now) to feel connected to others.
This mini-thread PSA is basically to say: I miss blogs, and want to see more blogs. And that means I also miss blogging, and I include myself there as being remiss at blogging. So instead of tweeting more, I plan to blog more. And occasionally link them here for you, friends.

Hi, y’all, B E here. Last Thursday, we were supposed to record something fun and silly, but with everything happening, it didn’t feel right. So we recorded this instead. Part tribute, part vent session between friends, and available in full here.✊🏿
I wrote a little something inspired by @kottke and @scxtchmusic, about the phonetics of beatboxing. It was a lot of fun to think about, I hope you enjoy. osotherapy.com/blog/bilabial…
