Obligatory link - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seal_finger
Don't let a Seal bite you.
"Seal finger was first described scientifically in 1907. It can cause cellulitis, joint inflammation, and swelling of the bone marrow; untreated, the course of "seal finger" is slow and often results in a thickened, contracted joint. Historically, seal finger was treated by amputation of the affected digits once they became unusable...."

I did return to my old flac and mp3 collection. Got Foobar working again, found a nice skin and I'm rediscovering music that I that skipped over. I buy second-hand CDs when I find them. I've managed to get a digital copy of all my favourite albums and tracks.

I will keep Spotify though. A long time ago, I got friends to share their Discovery and Release Radar playlists. With my own, I have a nice spread of recommendations.

I need regular new music. Call it a search for unexpected dopamine. Spotify still picks new tracks that I really like. I also like Spotify Connect and the easily shared collaborative playlists.

The UK has less alternatives for music discovery. I don't like Radio, way too much talking and ads.

I've got rid of Netflix, Prime. I'm getting Disney+ for free at the moment. Back to physical for film and TV.

For now, Spotify recommendations is worth the cost of entry.

Anyone seen Adolescence? Is it worth the hype?

It's not something I'd normally watch. Enough depressing things going on in the real world, without mixing in fiction.

However, I did binge it all in one session. Great acting. But the whole thing was a brutal experience.

Aside from the main story line, reminded me of how horrible school can be. I sometimes wake up in the mornings and think: "Yes, I get to go to work, and not school!"

So if you really enjoy a good misery drama (and that's not me being judgemental, I just can't think of a better way of classifying it.) Then I'd recommended it.
