And finally, WOW. I just watched (on YouTube) the 90th birthday tribute to Stephen Sondheim. It was due to be broadcast, presumably live from Broadway, about a month ago… instead, it is all kinds of people singing from their homes. People like Lin Manuel Miranda, Christine Baranski, Patti Lupone, Bernadette Peters, Brian Stokes Mitchell, Jake Gyllenhall. It's lovely, it's really moving, it's kinda sad, and it's brilliant. So many awesome singers. You should watch it.

If you had your own alpacas, you could make your own yarn??

Elon Musk is the 'Tony Stark' you ordered from Wish. That which has been seen cannot be unseen...

The plant plastic looks promising, but what happens if you put the bottles in the normal plastic recycling?

Sadly, Biodegradable plastics (except for PET) should NOT be recycled, because they contaminate the process and result in low-quality recycled products.

I think that's why many plastics fail to get recycled. The cost of proper sorting is high and it's easy for a batch to get contaminated. eg. How about plastic plates with food still on them?

Those alpacas are adorable! But sadly none with curly hair, as that will forever remind me of Justin.
