Actually it was during the middle of the day.

I was doing a semester abroad in London 30 years ago, and I'd been unaware of Uncle Tupelo. I returned home in May of '95, and about a week later I started summer school. While moving into my dorm room I set up my TV first for background noise. I tuned into MTV and heard "Box Full of Letters." I've been a fan ever since. Happy 30th, A.M.!

Had an unexpected afternoon off and finally got around to watching Beastie Boys Story. So good. It made me miss them and their music.

I watched Anora last night. I very much enjoyed this movie, but the ending left me totally nonplussed. The movie brings all the feels. It's an emotional roller coaster. I've only seen five of the ten Best Picture nominees, so I'm not sure how things will shake out once I've seen them all. I do get why Mikey Madison won the Oscar for best actress. She's fantastic.

According to Oxford Languages it means: expressing compliance or agreement, especially acceptance of instructions received by radio. "“Wilco, Sir,” came the reply" The key is in the origin: 1940s (originally in military use): abbreviation of will comply .
