Lazy Sunday CCLXVI: Political Stuff, Part I

The Portly Politico2 Comments

Summertime is the slow period for politics in the United States. Yes, President Trump was convicted in a sham, politicized trial for essentially putting some expenditures into the wrong category on a spreadsheet, but that’s only boosted his appeal.

But since rubbing elbows with our frosty elites, I’ve decided to subject everyone to some posts about politics for a Lazy Sunday or two:

Happy Sunday!

Lazy Sunday CCLXV: Disco Elysium Reviews

The Portly PoliticoLeave a comment

A bit of tedious housekeeping before launching into today’s installment of Lazy Sunday:  I give this series, as well as several others, Roman numeral designators.  It is a bit unwieldy, but unnecessary unwieldiness is, after all, a hallmark of this blog.  What is portlier, I ask, than a bloated inefficient numbering system?

That said, I tend to make mistakes with Roman numerals.  It’s easy enough to do, especially as the numbers enter the triple digits.  I decided to check to see if I have been accurate in my numbering, and I have not.  It seems I got off track somewhere in the 140s(ish).  It occurred to me to check when I labeled this edition “CL” (150), as I thought, “wait a minute—didn’t I hit that milestone a long time ago?”

So I undertook the tedious task of renumbering all of the titles for past installments of Lazy Sunday on the list below, and changed from a bullet to a number for the list, to give myself an additional safeguard.

What I did not do was go back and change the title of each individual blog post to the correct number.  That would take an inordinate amount of time.  I may go and correct that eventually, but, goodness—what a dreary task!

So we’re starting fresh today, with CCLXV, or the 265th installment of Lazy Sunday.  That means in one hundred more Sundays (assuming I don’t skip any—gulp!), we’ll have year’s worth of Lazy Sundays to enjoy.  Maybe I could publish The Lazy Sunday Daily Devotional?  Ha!

With that, let’s get on to the posts!  To celebrate Ponty’s review of Disco Elysium (that’s an affiliate link, so I get a portion of proceeds from any purchase made through it at no additional cost to you), I figured I’d feature our respective reviews of that legendary game.

Go play some video games!

Happy Sunday!

Lazy Sunday CXLIX: End of School Events

The Portly Politico2 Comments

The end is nigh!  The end the school year, that is.  Unlike all the folks that work year-round—the fools!—I get to revel in approximately two months of summertime goodness every year.  It’s a fair trade-off for the brutally long hours I put in during the school year.

With this ending-of-all-things in mind, I figured I’d glance back at some recent posts about end-of-school-year events:

Happy Sunday—and Happy Memorial Day Weekend!

Lazy Sunday CXLVIII: Four Mages, Part II

The Portly PoliticoLeave a comment

Today’s tracks are from my seventeenth album, Four Mages.  It is a collection of ten electronic tracks, all but one of which (“The Blind Prophet“) is color-coded. Each piece explores some facet of fantasy archetypes, weaving and casting a musical spell upon listeners.

Here are some platforms where you can listen:

I really enjoy this album, and I hope you will, too.  It’s about fourteen minutes in length, so it’s perfect listening for quick errands.

Of these, I think “Pink Princess” is the best, but I have a soft spot for “The Blind Prophet,” and “Black Mage” is just so sinister and mysterious.

Which is your favorite?

Happy Sunday!

Lazy Sunday CXLVII: Mothers

The Portly PoliticoLeave a comment

It’s Mother’s Day here in the United States.  I’m excited to celebrate with my awesome Mom today, as well as my sister-in-law, who is also an awesome mom.

In the long annals of TPP history, it seems I’ve only written one Mother’s Day-related post, and haven’t really written about mothers at all.  Considering I’m a single man, that’s probably not surprising; it might be weird if I had written more about moms.

As such, I’ve just got two posts to share this Sunday, and one is definitely a stretch:

Happy Sunday—and Happy Mother’s Day!

Lazy Sunday CXLVI: Ultra Laziness

The Portly Politico2 Comments

In the past week I’ve had three posts that were, essentially, non-posts.  In an effort to get back on schedule while also embracing this recent bout of exhaustion-induced laziness, I’ve decided to turn this weekend’s installment of Lazy Sunday into an absurd metacommentary on not writing real blog posts:

  • “No Lazy Sunday Today” – Lazy Sunday somehow got even lazier.
  • “Nothing New” – There’s Phone it in Friday, then there’s nothing at all.  This post was right in between; at least, it was something about nothing.
  • “A Quick Update” – the most substantive of the lot.  See—I’m ramping back up to more real posts!

Have no fears, readers—I’ve just been extremely busy at work.  I’m talking ten-to-fifteen-hour days, everyday, since last Monday.  I took time Saturday to clean and get my house and vehicle in order, and made sure to take a very long nap.  Just gotta get through one more hump this Tuesday and things settle down quite a bit—for now.

Happy Sunday!

Lazy Sunday CXLV: Murphy Vids, Part II

The Portly PoliticoLeave a comment

My fat dog Murphy is the gift that keeps on giving.  Well, actually, she’s a huge drain on my financial and temporal resources, but, hey, who can put a price tag on love?

But back to that gift giving comment.  Murphy does bring in the views to my YouTube channel, which—like most of my artistic endeavors—would probably be a massive flop if I didn’t have a cute, sassy, ornery dog to showcase to the content-hungry masses.

So, here are the three latest editions of Phone it in Friday featuring my lovable, stinky bull terrier, Murphy:

Happy Sunday—and Viewing!

Lazy Sunday CXLIV: Four Mages, Part I

The Portly PoliticoLeave a comment

Last week I released Leftovers II, and in just a few weeks I’ll release my next album, Four Mages (2 May 2024).  If you’d like to hear my latest release, you can do so here:

Readers might have noticed some of the colorful mages popping up over the last few weeks on this blog.  I’ve posted three of the Four Mages so far (“Black Mage” is coming this Tuesday, 9 April 2024—stay tuned!), so I thought I’d share them with y’all this Lazy Sunday:

  • “Open Mic Adventures LXXIII: ‘Blue Mage’” – “Blue Mage” is a duet for oboe and bassoon, built upon a mysterious whole tone scale. The piece is written in 5/8 time, further lending to the mystical feel of this magical journey.
  • “Open Mic Adventures LXXIV: ‘Red Mage’” – “Red Mage” is a mischievous and playful duet for oboe and bassoon. It is the companion piece to “Blue Mage.” The piece has a playful, mischievous feel, and I love how it sounds very much like it’s from a fantasy JRPG soundtrack.
  • “Open Mic Adventures LXXV: ‘White Mage’” – “White Mage” is a bright but flowing solo for flute with celesta accompaniment. A piano could be substituted in place of the celesta. It has a delightful Final Fantasy vibe.
