Thanks @premeemohamed.com I just finished beneath the rising (which I thoroughly enjoyed) and now my friends outside of winnipeg are seeing northern lights and all I can think is the doors are getting thinner

Working my way through Shake It Up: Great American Writing on Rock and Pop from Elvis to Jay Z and Richard meltzer had to be at least tongue in cheek writing the aesthetics of rock...right?

It's impressive how much better the original demos are than the final version of the red hot chili peppers debut

It never really clicked until this listen through how dino valenti kinda ruined a perfectly good psychedelic rock band when he took over quicksilver messenger service. Took a band formed around jamming and dual guitars into a middle of the road rock band, that said Fresh Air is still pretty good.

Humans sure do like to draw imaginary lines on a map then imbue them with meaning and enforce them with violence

Beyond stoked to devour @tkingfisher.com Hemlock & Silver, you know it's poppin' off when the library gives you a shortened lending period

You know that right wing meme when they look at a baroque church and are like “no one knows how they did this. We’ve forgotten how.” That’s how I feel about this 36 seconds of 30 rock

Halfway through Indians On Vacation by Thomas King so this might change but here's my thoughts so far: "So we're in Prague. A pair of unlikeable characters are accompanied by the main characters named insecurities as they have a bad, bleak time in Prague and Budapest"

70 years ago, on this date, Emmett Till was kidnapped and brutally murdered by white men.

His family, including his cousin who was with him at the time, is repeating the train ride he took from Chicago to Mississippi in 1955 to mark the anniversary

started reading Little Rot by Akwaeke Emezi, devoured half of it before needing a break. So far it's a well written tale of mostly terrible people and the terrible very bad no good things they get up to in New Lagos

Devoured another great @michaelconnelly.bsky.social novel thanks to my library. The Fifth Witness was everything I want in a Lincoln Lawyer book plus the rare appearance of a character who manipulated Mickey Haller and straight up got away with it.

Got double serving of @sgj.bsky.social from library. Almost devoured Killer On The Road in one sitting but I accidentally gave myself massive anxiety by listening to Closet Witch at the same time. Incredible novella, gory in all the best HE JUST TORE OFF WHAT ways alongside the usual great writing

We have destroyed the natural environment for this kind of music. The best time & place is two am in a smokey club, half the audience dangerous and the other half tourists from uptown. The fan hasn't worked since the 70s so the ceiling is hazy with cigarette smoke. #jazz #nowplaying

Fantastic reading day, devoured Memory Police in two sittings. Had to stop and smoke a joint and eat lunch at the halfway point. Then got 100 pages into Emperor Of Gladness, the writing is beautiful but I have no idea where this freight train is heading #reading #nowreading

Devoured the MemoryPolice in two sittings. The most spiritually claustrophobic novel I've read in awhile. How far would you go to keep your memories? To maintain your bodily autonomy and stay safe from an oppressive surveillance state that can literally make the concepts of
