I am perpetually 16 years old
Good morning, my lovely people! You’ll have to forgive the slightly later-than-usual arrival of ye olde Weekender, as your friendly neighborhood Maniac has had less challenging Fridays-that-turn-into-Saturdays. There’s a lot going on. Our most immediate past is the Fun, which you should go play. The next most immediate thing, with much more info to follow tomorrow, is the Corenament; the Bracket Bosses are poised to make their selections, based on the community’s input, which you can still provide for a couple of more hours or so.
Otherwise, spring is in the air, pounding is in my head and this house ain’t gonna clean itself. Have at it!
Strange-ass Moods …
The first post-Pour Lui BiS tour is right on, and the theme for the Fun!!!:

That PIIIIIIIN post made me want to do one about Queens, but they’re better Weekender material, don’t you think?
I almost forgot about the Broken By The Scream interview, in Finnish!
I received an interview offer from Finland! Thank you!! https://t.co/BjML6ncWBN

If I ever have occasion to meet Ruru Summertree, aka FunFunFun in person, I’m going to ask her how she felt when her daddy took her T-bird away:
Somebody tell me everything about Afilia Saga:
Stop everything that you’re doing and go read about Jimusho in this article that Daemon shared a little while ago and I almost forgot about.

If you were curious as to what the Woman Who Could Have Been a Star Called Yukako Love Deluxe if She Hadn’t Bailed on BiSH is up to these days:
Rain shared a translation of Marty Friedman-san’s enthusiastic PassCode statement:
Also, has anybody else noticed that Marty’s actually getting younger?
In this case, though, no translation needed:
