(originally posted in Music Appreciation on March 10).

Music Prof Hennessy!
Music seems like the sort of thing that would appeal to the stubbornly illiterate (computer architecture, comic books and Jonathan Haidt pontificating on mentrual politics aside) like you:

I am optimistic about finally slowly starting work today after sometime in 2019. It is quiet and peaceful. I will be vociferously online when I am not working on my paper or unwinding, assuring you that I am filing complaints and pressing charges in India. 🕊️☮️
