1 remix replaced:

With about 500 songs left to review I discovered another remix -- 'Disturb the Doubtful Sleep' is a remix of 'Blameless Thoughts.'  To stay at 5,500 songs for my overall hall of fame I had to quick find a replacement, which I did in Liella's 'Absolute LOVER,' which only came out today.  Talk about jumping from icefloe to icefloe.  But I found a replacement and that's all that matters.  I'll still have a perfectly symmetrical music hall of fame when all is said and done.

Nyaa.si also has a free copy of the latest Haruhi novel, but I haven't had time to read it since I'm working on my 47th reread of '100 Waifus.'  I'm up to Chapter 42 of the book so I'll be able to finish this before the end of year deadline as well.  It does seem like I'll be finishing the book and the music at about the same time, in an eerie moment of synchronicity.

As a Texas native I'm happy to see SMU got into the playoff.  Now I have SMU and Texas to cheer for.  A lot of the playoff teams are newcomers.  Congratulations to SMU, Indiana, Arizona State and Boise State for finally getting an invitation to the dance.  This is what the expanded playoff is all about, giving everyone who deserves a chance a chance.

The state department assures me that Israel's invasion of Syria is only temporary and thus doesn't violate the sacred and inviolable 'rules based order' of territorial integrity.  I'm sure I can trust them.  The USA is never hypocritical.  And Israel has never in its history ever annexed anyone else's territory before, so they can be trusted on this matter.

It looks like the Turks are willing to permit the Kurdistan enclave to continue indefinitely, meaning 'Syria' really doesn't exist anymore.  Just like 'Somalia' doesn't exist and has been broken into multiple ruling parts for decades now.  I wish there was more authenticity in the world.  If Kurdistan is a permanent new nation on Earth then just declare your independence already.  Stop pretending you're a province in rebellion when the person you're in rebellion against doesn't even exist anymore.

I'm happy Daniel Penny was acquitted.  It's too bad Derek Chauvin wasn't.

Boku no Risou no Isekai Seikatsu is quite the sexy manga, though don't expect anything more from it than that.
