People SO Stupid
Recently, I wrote about Cardi B's single "WAP" which took over pop culture in America. Today, I introduce the rapper Tom MacDonald and his single "People So Stupid" which replaced "WAP" in the number 1 position of a music chart that tracks sales.

Shell scripting registration closes soon... Want in?
Yes. Yes, I do want in to this class. I have zero understanding how I would use shell scripting in my daily technical writing duties, but I still want to learn. However, I took a class about Drupal this summer and have yet to use the information I learned in that class at work either - and work paid for me to take the class! I hope that I find out what I am going to do with my Drupal knowledge prior to forgetting my Drupal knowledge!
In any case, learning shell scripting would be awesome. I am likely to look at the resources that are presently available to me to ascertain whether there is already shell scripting classes I could take.

Brilliant Idea
This is an amazing idea! When I think about my own electronic drums, I want to make sure that I do not have a bunch of cables that will make it look messy.
I have to find a band first.

Need to Do Some Synching
If I did this "right," I would have 4 copies of my "Music_Shell" folder with the same number of files in each.
A: 139421
L: 139638 ← Source of Truth folder
O: 139667
P: 150011
There are 217 *fewer* files in the A:\Music_Shell folder than in the L:\Music_Shell folder.
There are 29 *more* files in the O:\Music_Shell folder than in the L:\Music_Shell folder.
There are 10,373 *more* files in the P:\Music_Shell folder than in the L:\Music_Shell folder.

From https://musicbrainz.org/genres, except I changed the ul tags to ol tags because I wanted to have a count because UL = unordered list (bullets) while OL = ordered list (numbers).
