The last 4 1/2 minutes is an impromptu jam session that followed the intended end of the song. The lads didn't know the entire thing, jam and all, was recorded. They liked it and kept it on the album. I am so glad they did.

Ornamental grass, in the dark of evening, at a time when, not many days ago, it wouldn't yet have been dark. Bit like life is sometimes.

The wispy and curving tops of stalks of ornamental grass, lit artificially and in front of a dark evening sky.

I picked this up at @therobintheatre.bsky.social - a wonderful place - and these stories are definitely unique. Less murder mystery (what I was expecting 🙄) and more existential dread in a not-terribly-serious style.

Michigan in autumn is where I want to be.

I had two conversations not sooo long ago about where in the world it's like Michigan autumn year round, one with my then partner, and one with ChatGPT. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Wow. Not one of my starred guys started, and Kaminski and Jaquez were my high scorers. Oof. And yet I didn't lose that much ground.

Here's some music to set the tone for your Halloween evening. Ghosts, sorcerers, and monsters of all kinds...strange noises, moans, bursts of laughter, distant cries to which other cries seem to respond - it's all here.

I've posted a scant few graveyard scenes this month, disappointing my October 1 self who had big plans.

#photography #graveyard #moody #Octobervibes
A graveyard with a scattered few grave stones, one in the left foreground that is a base topped with two round pillars joined at the top by an arch. There are brown fallen leaves covering the ground round the gravestones and there are large evergreen trees in the left background and large deciduous trees in the right background.

In the produce aisle
At a family do
At the coffee shop
By the neighbor's yew
When I brush my teeth
Or read my book
When I just arrive home
And you give me that look...
You can flirt with me
Anytime
And anywhere

When worries aren't
Simply a darkness
Brooding over everything
They take the shape
Of the face in the mirror
Repeating as many times as
All the ways in which
The person behind the face
Will not be good enough today

Thank you for walking away, because I never would have.

A paved walking path through a woods of bare trees in late autumn. On either side of the path are wood slat fences three feet high and ten feet long. There is a dense foggy mist obscuring the distant path and trees.
