So, another week is starting, and it's getting colder outside. The last thing you probably want to do is crawl out of bed and interact with other humans, or do anything that appears remotely or even hypothetically productive. At this point, thanatosis (the art of playing dead) likely seems a cunning and ultimately tempting option for avoiding the burden of one's commitments- and as a traditional reflex amongst North America's only native marsupial, the opossum, it's arguably the most patriotic measure of avoidance as well. Far be it for me to counsel you on how to justify or edify your rotmaxing, but if you do need to burrow into obscurity for an indeterminate period of time, during which rumors of your expiration may be exaggerated (if only slightly), might I suggest that you take with you into this social-void some tunes from the master of morbid bluffs, Milkypossum- the curiously lively, shadow queen of the internet, whose presence is felt nowhere, and yet everywhere, hiding her power levels in plain sight, while rehearsing a terminal case of taciturn aloofness. This is all to say that she's a lot of fun, but you're going to be hard-pressed to spot her (sans pseudo-rigor mortis) in the wild- much like her namesake. If you're not already hip to Milky's brand of OST acid house, hip-hop, hyper-referential digital hardcore, hyperseeding webcore, and hyper...well, hyperpop, let my interview with her be your introduction to a new world of eccentric opossibilities and digital euphorias as you withdraw into reclusive social hibernation for the year- preferably with access to high-speed internet and a pouch stash of lactose-loaded snacks.
