Kurt Vonnegut tells his wife he's going out to buy an envelope: "Oh, she says, well, you're not a poor man. You know, why don't you go online and buy a hundred envelopes and put them in the closet? And so I pretend not to hear her. And go out to get an envelope because I'm going to have a hell of a good time in the process of buying one envelope. I meet a lot of people. And see some great looking babies. And a fire engine goes by. And I give them the thumbs up. And I'll ask a woman what kind of dog that is. And, and I don't know. The moral of the story is - we're here on Earth to fart around. And, of course, the computers will do us out of that. And what the computer people don't realize, or they don't care, is we're dancing animals. You know, we love to move around. And it's like we're not supposed to dance at all anymore.

I miss Joe Strummer.
Thinking of Joe Strummer (b. 8/21/1952, d. 12/22/2002) today. Artwork depicts Joe Strummer like an icon with orange halo, and black and green vestments. He’s got his worn Sunburst Fender Telecaster (looks like he’s holding an “A” note with his third finger on the low E string in the 5th fret) and has a cig dangling from his mouth. Top text reads “Saint Strummer” in an old Slavic-style font. Artwork available at https://saegsart.com/collections/saint-strummer/products/saint-strummer

Review | The Bug vs @ghostdubs.bsky.social - Implosion by Gavin Brown

"The material here is manna from bass weight heaven, and the thought of these tracks being played out on a massive rig, is a very tantalising thought indeed."

This summer I found a very small and interesting flowering plant in the forest. I went and checked it today and the leaves are still green! Any ideas? #plantsky
An, as yet, unidentified plant. Green leaves partially covered by fallen tree leaves.

May I introduce you my new creation: the “NoDak” cocktail? 1 part vodka, 1 part ranch dressing, all parts delicious. The next iteration will have a hamburger dill garnish or a cornichon (if you’re nasty).
