Sorry, but it was such a beautiful setup. How could I not!?

Twenty six years, only to find out it was me the entire time...

I discovered The Shoestrings recently. They put out their first album in 1997, and their second in 2021, so… prolific. I checked Bandcamp and saw “66 brand new, unshrinkwrapped copies of the original, long out-of-print CD from 1997 were recently discovered while cleaning out the Le Grand Magistery vaults.” It was already sold out. But I found one online for a reasonable price.

I follow Discontinued Foods on Bluesky. Thats where I learned about this limited summer edition of Bush’s Best baked beans. I ordered them a week ago last Friday, and they were sold out by the following Monday. The flavors are Apple Pie, Dill Pickle, and Rocket Pop. It also comes with a compact Bush’s branded can opener and a beer cozy. Not a bad deal for just $5.25 plus $5 shipping. I’ll be posting about them in the “What are you eating/drinking” thread later. I’m not up for three 28oz cans of beans tonight.

There's only so many albums you can release when your budget is an erm ... shoestring?

I don't know why a 2nd PS5 controller feels like a guilty, 'luxury' item, but it does - so I went the whole hog and got the fancy red one... it is rather lovely though.

I also really like the purple one, and the 'indigo' one is cool too - though I assume @Famine will have the purple one, or both??
