    🎵 L Y R I C S 🎵:
    Think the clouds are clogging up my brain
    Like the weather drain same as the tears on my face
    And I'm stuck up in the storm eye
    I guess I'll be all right

    Oh (uh-oh, uh-oh)
    Oh, oh (uh-oh, uh-oh)
    Then it hits me like
    Oh (uh-oh, uh-oh)
    Oh, no (uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-uh-oh)

    And you're that wind that swept me off my feet
    Got me flying 'til I'm crying, and I'm down on my knees
    That's what Dorothy was afraid of
    The sneaky tornado

    Oh (uh-oh, uh-oh)
    Oh, oh (uh-oh, uh-oh)
    There's no place like home (uh-oh, uh-oh)
    Oh, oh (uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-uh-oh)

    I'm boarding up the windows
    Locking up my heart
    It's like every time the wind blows
    I feel it tearing us apart
    Every time he smiles, I let him in again
    Everything is fine when
    You're standing in the eye of the hurricane

    Here comes the sun, here comes the rain
    Standing in the eye of the hurricane
    Here comes the sun, here comes the rain
    Standing in the eye of the hurricane

    I'm flopping on my bed like a flying squirrel
    Like a little girl hurt by the big bad world
    Yeah, it's twisting up my insides
    Can't hide it on the outside

    Oh (uh-oh, uh-oh)
    Oh, oh (uh-oh, uh-oh)
    Yeah, it hits me like
    Oh (uh-oh, uh-oh)
    Oh, no (uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-uh-oh)

    And that's when you hold me, you hold me
    You tell me that you know me, I'll never be lonely
    Say we've made it through the storm now
    But I'm still on the lookout

    Oh (uh-oh, uh-oh)
    Oh, oh (uh-oh, uh-oh)
    The air's getting cold (uh-oh, uh-oh)
    Cold

    I'm boarding up the windows
    Locking up my heart
    It's like every time the wind blows
    I feel it tearing us apart
    Every time he smiles, I let him in again
    Everything is fine when
    You're standing in the eye of the hurricane

    Here comes the sun, here comes the rain
    Standing in the eye of the hurricane
    Here comes the sun, here comes the rain
    Standing in the eye of the hurricane

    And he picks me up like
    He's got the way of the hurricane
    And I think I'm fine like
    I'm in the eye of the hurricane

    And he picks me up like
    He's got the way of the hurricane
    And I think I'm fine like
    I'm in the eye of the hurricane

    And I'm floating, floating
    And I don't know when, know when I'm gonna drop
    He's got the way, he's got the way

    I'm boarding up the windows
    Locking up my heart
    It's like every time the wind blows
    I feel it tearing us apart
    Every time he smiles, I let him in again
    Everything is fine when
    You're standing in the eye of the hurricane

    Here comes the sun, here comes the rain
    Standing in the eye of the hurricane
    Here comes the sun, here comes the rain
    Standing in the eye of the hurricane

    And he picks me up like
    He's got the way of the hurricane
    And I think I'm fine like
    I'm in the eye of the hurricane

    And he picks me up like
    He's got the way of the hurricane
    And I think I'm fine like
    I'm in the eye of the hurricane

  4. @axbom Thanks for sharing this! Made me think of the #HelloMyNameIs campaign:

    Founded by the late Dr Kate Granger:„I’m a doctor, but also a terminally ill cancer patient. During a hospital stay in August 2013 with post-operative sepsis, I made the stark observation that many staff looking after me did not introduce themselves before delivering my care. It felt incredibly wrong that such a basic step in communication was missing.” en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kate_G

  5. Hello, Calckey! I've been using Mastodon since the E-train derailed over at That Other Place. I like it, and I LOVE the idea of the Fediverse, privatized social, and no F-ing algorithms run by advertisers and agendas. But I'm also frustrated by some of the limitations over there, especially low character limits on posts. So, I'm trying this. At the very least, it should give me some perspective on that the Fediverse really means.

    Anyway, love to follow and engage with interesting people. Especially interested in meeting other writers of all kinds, mystery, science fiction and fantasy readers, indie publishing, folks interested in film and TV (especially genre), science and space folks, makers, and folks that know more than I do.

    Maybe I'll do something interesting you'll like too. Follow if you want. Be warned, when I publish something I'll talk about it, and that happens regularly. An my wife is cozy mystery writer Christy Fifield, and I brag on her stuff too. I'll try never to be a jerk about it.

  7. CW: About my name

    FiXato

    Hello, my name is FiXato.
    It started as a handle, or more accurately as a moniker under which I would produce (online) content. As it's become part of my identity over time, I've come to regard it as my name, rather than a nickname though.
    In mixed offline and online contexts, or where applicable, I might sign with a combination of my wallet names and online names ¹. While my wallet names are easily found online, I want to be addressed online by my online name, FiXato.

    Shortened form(s)

    People who've interacted with me for a while and who are looking to shorten the name, are free to refer to me as 'FiX'. Just 'F' is fine too, though my preference goes to 'FiX'.

    Capitalisation

    The odd capitalisation of the name is a stylistic choice, which originates from early logo sketches ², where the X would act as an encapsulating centre glyph.
    While the X in my name is capitalised, it does not affect the pronunciation of my name, or indicate the start of the next emphasis.

    Pronunciation

    The closest approximation to my name's pronunciation I've been able to come up with using the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA), is: /fɪks'ɑto/.
    If I had to write it phonetically, I'd probably describe it as fix-ah-toh ³ (or fix-ah-tow?).
    This would be the preferred pronunciation, though I'm also okay with a more American pronunciation, similar to /fɪkseɪ'to/.
    I guess it's similar to how 'tomato' sounds differently between British (/təˈmɑː.təʊ/) and American (/təˈmeɪ.t̬oʊ/) English.

    The shortened form would simply be pronounced as 'fix'. (Though still written with its F and X capitalised: 'FiX'.)
    IPA: /fɪks/

    Attached is an audio file with a quick pronunciation of my handle using British and American English pronunciation.

    Footnotes

    ¹ The combination of wallet names and online name usually is in the following form: my meatspace ⁴ first name, followed by the initials of my meatspace second and third name, followed by "FiXato" (including double quotes), followed by my meatspace surname.
    I.e. $firstName $initial1. $initial2. "FiXato" $lastName.

    ² In the earliest sketches and name choices it was actually 'FiXations', but the balance felt off, and it was already a rather well-used name as well as common English word, which would make searching for content produced under that name rather difficult, so I decided on "FiXato" instead. Of course I later discovered that 'fixato' is also an Italian verb, and that search engines later on decided that it must be a typo (even when explicitly capitalised) of 'fixator', which is a medical device...

    ³ no, not 'fix a toe'; the 'ato'-part is more a single syllable, and not as separate from the 'fix' part either.

    ⁴ Meatspace: a term to distinguish the offline from the online life. Meatspace is the aspect of the world where we interact physically. When it comes to my #meatspace name, I might also use the term 'wallet name' instead; i.e. the name that's on the cards and such that are in one's wallet.
    No, I don't consider 'in real life' a good alternative to indicate the offline interactions. It has the negative connotation that our online communications are not actually part of the real life, while it merely is just another means of communication.
