what do you think about ed sheeran
Good day to you, @toothsheeran.
We today have an answer for you, in two parts, to the imperative question you raise with us here at WIP: The Ed Sheeran Question. We’ve been expecting you.

Jon (Tumblr Marketing): This question struck me as considerable happenstance, as it was only in the past week I was looking at Ed Sheeran’s Wikipedia, and looking him up, on Google. Nae, the doubters say, ‘Tis far too inconvenient: I don’t believe for one moment you were actually Googling Mr Sheeran, or researching his Wikipedia profile, only to find this WIP question nestling in your inbox just days later I simply do not believe it!, they say.
Look upon my search history, ye mighty, and despair!
So it is true I was Googling Ed Sheeran, and the extent of my thoughts are these: Wow, I thought, Ed Sheeran went to prep school. Didn’t expect that. Wow, I thought, Ed Sheeran was voted by school classmates as “most likely to be famous”. This made me consider my own school experiences: I was, unfortunately, voted “most likely to work at McDonald’s”. Some wounds never truly heal, I can assure you.
My thoughts continue. I recalled earlier school days, in which my classmates and I would gather in hallways with our tatty jumpers and baggy rucksacks which would swing around like potatoes in a sack, and play Ed Sheeran’s very first recordings through the weak speakers of our mobile phones. We marvelled at the young man’s talent, and it seems remarkable—and a touch melancholy—to reflect on these days now. At this time, Mr Sheeran was merely a word-of-mouth phenomenon. We didn’t know it, but we young sproglets were at the cutting edge of popular music! More than ten years later, and Mr Sheeran is now a pop culture behemoth! He is also a close acquaintance of Tay-Tay, or so I am informed by Lindsay, an esteemed colleague here at Tumblr.
My thoughts continue still. In the ten years since Mr Sheeran’s meteoric rise, a rise that has born witness to more than 150 million records sold worldwide, Spotify’s second most streamed artist of the decade, Brit Awards for Best British Male Solo Artist and British Breakthrough Act, a second studio album, x, which has topped charts around the world and won Album of the Year at the 2015 Brit Awards, and the Ivor Novello Award for Songwriter of the Year from the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors, Mr Sheeran has become noted for his flaming red hair. As it happens I too have flaming red hair. This has led to an unfortunate increase in incidents whence I stroll the streets by moonlight, letting the day’s thoughts rest and percolate, when various street urchins (drunk, I imagine) have felt at liberty to shout “Oi! Ed Sheeran!” at me.
That concludes my thoughts on Ed Sheeran; thoughts which, I fear, say considerably more about my person than that of singer-songwriter, record producer, and actor, Ed Sheeran.

Getting another shot - 1/31/24
I hope everyone is doing okay.
I haven’t had luck at job hunting and not at all motivated to do so. I turned one job down. My style of supervising wouldn’t be a good fit for the people already there. The investigator pointed out that one of my biggest challenges was the staff. There seemed to be a lot of hidden issues that he hinted to.
I feel good about the upcoming interview on Friday. I’m…
