there's thoughtful and there's not thinking to contact us about what we actually needed first. We don't need these to be frank. No we don't know how to return them. If you sent them, contact knolan@wfmu.org so we can get you your money back or at least arrange for something we can actually use. (SORRY KIM)

ooo didn’t know they weren’t good chairs

I think that honestly the person who sent the chairs will not reveal themselves. So—in my humble opinion—toss them up on Craigslist and get $$$ that way.

afaik Sufjan's Tonya song is not in I, TONYA... his Call Me by Your Name tune is going to lose to Mary J Blige. Jonny Greenwood's score for Phantom Thread (WHAT A FILM) is outstanding, also figures to lose to Hans Zimmer or Alexandre Desplat.
