Exasperated person: you don’t have to play blue and black every time! Me: what are these other colours you speak of?
The busoki, (bu-so-key) or more commonly, the lover’s dance. Intimate and playful, but still simple enough that it could be performed no matter how distracted the participants became.

The cloak check is $2. She is currently taking a cloak from the person who came in before you. “One cloak, check!” She says officially, while taking no record of who the cloak belongs to. The cloak check goblin is Ixmolla. She’s a Prismari student and her medium is fireworks. She’s taken this job because her graduate thesis is going to be very expensive. Nothing less than a four kiloton explosive yield will deliver what she considers to be a sufficient artistic statement.
"You need pinesmoke tea," Dina says knowingly. She walks to the kitchen and futzes with the stove. "The other dryads here keep insisting the twig crap is good for rebalancing, but they try and sneak in a pitch for their weird cult every time." Dina leans out the kitchen and winks. "You're not in a cult! At least you've got that going alright!"
Sat, May 2, 2026 1:30 PM - 4:30 PM Showcase Room Every Strixhaven student accepts that at some point in their studies they'll be lightly to moderately charred in a magical mishap, but the staff at the Strixhaven Star are supposed to be reporting the news, not inserting themselves into it! GM Kathleen De Vere (LoadingReadyRun) leads an all-star cast on a chaotic romp through the multiverse's second-most dangerous university.

"Another One Bites the Dust" was used in a study to train medical professionals to provide the correct number of chest compressions per minute while performing CPR. The bassline has close to 110 beats per minute, and 100–120 chest compressions per minute are recommended by the British Heart Foundation, and endorsed by the Resuscitation Council (UK). A study evaluating CPR chest compression rates in veterinarians and registered veterinary nurses found that Queen's "Another One Bites the Dust" helped improve the accuracy of compression rates. When used as an auditory aid, the song resulted in a significantly higher number of participants achieving the correct rate of 100–120 compressions per minute, outperforming other aids like the Bee Gees' "Stayin' Alive". However, the content of the lyrics was not considered "quite as appropriate".
6. Identity and belonging Your shows often feel like temporary communities — chaotic but safe, transcendent yet grounded. How do you think about identity and belonging within these spaces, both for the band and your audience? Is creating that collective intensity intentional? Stu: Thank you! Creating a safe and inclusive space for folks to get freaky in is really important to me and the other gizzards and sometimes hard to pull off. We try really hard! Mostly I think it’s about validating and uplifting those folks who exist outside the sphere of “normal”. If you can make your space feel like home for minorities, women, LGBTQI+, folks with disabilities, first nations and more then the others people (like me!) should also feel at home. And I guess if cis white men don’t feel at home in a space like that it might be for the best that they stay at home and don’t crash the party ha ha
