Whenever I'm stressed by our tight financial situation, I remember that we lose WAY less money than big corporations. 80 BILLION?!?! Someone give me 80k and we'll at least make something people want

Happy 10th birthday to this unique beast of an album, the immortal Beyond the Fleeting Gales by @cryingband! Literally sounds like nothing else in the world and is like a hyperactive fantasy adventure set to music. We await Crying’s return, but for now, we have this to worship
