My son is on the spectrum. His idea of fun is computer games. On the great side of it, he has decided that he is going into the trades. I couldn’t be prouder of him.
His sibling has given me tunes for Tuesdays, as has his mother. Today I asked for his.
He gave me four. Two are cartoon—like singing. I can’t handle it, and I won’t inflict it on you.
His third choice was:
I happen to prefer the choir version:
His last was labeled “American”. It is a song I happen to like. It depends on whether it was “The War of Northern Aggression” or “The Civil War” or “the war to free the slaves”.
Congrats to him for being interested in the trades. One of Interesting Coworkers kids got in with a service that certifies our biosafety cabinets and is getting his travel, lodgings, and food on the road paid for while making more money than he can find outside of a degree and he’s still in his trainee phase. On the other side his sister is working at Target because her DEI coaching career choice isn’t interested in hiring her to any place she wants to work.
Far Cry 5 had some amazing songs. Keep Your Rifle By Your Side gained a cult like following during the Summer of Peace. Build a Castle is another haunting one. For a game meant to mock and belittle preppers and the religious we took the sound track and unironically loved it. It drove the devs and community crazy.
