Last year I didn't finish the McSweeney's Advent Calendar until this year (I really pushed to make it a real Christmas in July type thing but never posted about it). So this year I think I'll start early and hope I'm not bored with Christmas before December whatever.

Saw Kaytranada and Justice in Oakland last night. Original tickets had an obstructed view so we got reseated to much better seats (lol, so my photos were 10% less shitty 😆).

In honor of me trying to get over the horrors I saw in midtown last week, I post the beautiful sight of a sundog I saw in the sky as I walked to dinner yesterday.

Read (heh, "read") a second wave of Ed Ruscha artists' books today. I didn't realize my library had them because instead of classifying them into photography, they were classified by subject be photographed 😭🤣🤨

I always come down with a massive case of library envy every time I visit Woodland Public. Currently the whole place has a game theme but my fav was the ref desk 🤓

This is my very favorite of Ed Ruscha's Various Small Fires. A million artists have attempted to emulate/exceed... but I appreciate this for its blazing path setting.

My vacation summer life seems to be over already (sob) so I guess it's back to random rabbit holes for now (I definitely saw Superman on opening night but have definitely been shamed into not talking about it until the rest of the wold has seen it by which time? I'm done with it all)

LOL, trying to win tickets to next year's Cruel World is useless. Nonetheless, I answered all the questions honestly. Too bad they didn't ask about the hotel merch pack because I. have. comments.
