This is a much wider shot from the blood moon the other night, I didn't realize how noisy it was until just now, but I don't hate it.

The title today is a bar from one of the silliest internet videos I've seen recently, a rap from "Drippo the Hippo". There's a few videos of him (the hippo) doing little rap songs about how cool he is, and I must say, he sure is.

I CAN EMBED VIDEOS!!!

I don't know how well this will work, but it's worth a shot. The title isn't from this video, but this is the first/main Drippo the Hippo video, it's made the rounds on the internet a few times, I don't know when it's originally from, but I love it. It's such a good showcase of whimsy, something that is lacking in most people's day-to-day.

The lyricism is also good, something that doesn't need to be true for a video like this to work, but because the rhymes and rhythm go hard, for lack of a better term, it makes the video absolutely sublime.
