Happy Hump Day! Holler along to some vintage @thejesuslizard.bsky.social as you are reminded once again that shit is not fine.

The Davids think @thejesuslizard.bsky.social last record was among theit best. Grind was maybe the song that got played the most when we took the record home. It fits pretty well with this anti-fascist cartoon by Lev Atamanov, We Can Do It (1970).

If you heard the shameful news last year about the banning of the graphic novel Maus in Tennessee recently, you may still not have been prepared for word of NPR censoring the new documentary Disaster is My Muse on public broadcast. Watch it on Kanopy while you still can.
Art Spiegelman poster for Disaster is My Muse. Art sits at his drafting table with a cigarette and a five o' clock shadow. Outside his window, we see horrific inevitabilities. Those who describe such inevitabilities are surely flagged somehow. If you've read Maus/the news, you'll get the general idea.

The Davids have a soft spot for the earliest incarnations of The Modern Dance (1977) songs. Play The Hearpen Singles (1978) if you're unfamiliar. The track is paired here with animation from The Phoenix Bird (1968) by Sabin Balasa.

Here's a preview of The Davids latest zine made in preparation for Cronenberg's latest movie The Shrouds. The maestro will be in Chicago for two Q&As at The Music Box Theatre this weekend. Chances are that talk will raise more questions than answers. In turn, The Davids will offer him our kisses.
text for first two pages of new Cronenberg zine: From tattoos on Viggo Mortensen to va- hee hees in the middle of that asshole James Woods, to assholes on talking bugs, the bodies present in David Cronenberg's body of work will continue to tell interesting stories long after he stopped telling them. This is particularly the case with David's works that have come out since his 78th birthday. Birth and death and fucking loom large in any artist story, but rarely are the effects of disease on the body woven so well into an artists' concluding statements as they seem to be in David's work made while COVID started working its way onto movie sets. In 2025, The Davids will release a series discussing performance art, chronic pain, extreme levels of pain tolerance, and a new source of disability becoming a wellspring for hot button issues surrounding shadowing forces of ignorance, chaos, and murder. (I.E. typical Cronenberg, typical North American zeitgeist) That episode will also be about sex --not sex of a remotely reproductive nature, but sex that entails most if not all of those elements previously mentioned.

If you're moving through time in the @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social lobby tonight or tomorrow, The Davids dropped some zines off for those preferring to read about the late, great Mr. Lynch on neon.

The Davids demand an official statement about why the Easter egg of Lynch talking about McDonalds didn't make it from the special edition DVD to the Criterion disc.

Michael Shannon starred in a movie for Werner Herzog years ago. David Lynch's name was on the movie as executive producer. At last nights screening of Eric LaRue, Shannon graciously shared his story about meeting David Lynch. The Davids will upload the rest of that story sometime today.

late night listening with the late Ornette Coleman
Mondo edition vinyl of Howard Shore and Ornette Coleman's original score for David Cronenberg's Naked Lunch. Black vinyl. Didn't swing the pressing colored like a failed drug test.

Same message as yesterday. Now, twice as cautious, but half as legible.
