Dusty Chalk

Daw! I would hug him and cuddle him and call him Lovecraft.

Mt. Mountain, Dust -- so good. I've listened -- and liked, and probably buying -- their entire catalog, but Dust is their masterpiece. It's like Tool on quaaludes, with a bit of Desert Sessions thrown in. https://mtmountain.bandcamp.com/album/dust

I was listening to Tidal’s Modern Psychedelic playlist, and their track, “Livin’ a Lie” from their album, Seeing Other People , stood out. I need to check them out further. Think I’ll start with that one. Thanks for the indirect rec. In the meantime, been listening to the Tool catalogue. I forgot how annoying their filler / studio wankery can be. Some, deliberately so.

So...Florida? And: yes. Although a foot above sea level might be fucked sooner than the mountains of West Virginia, if you can believe that.

Cheeze (some aged sharp cheddar something -- 12 year, I think) and triscuits

Just got to the part about day larks and night owls, and how circadian rhythms are hereditary but not inherited and that definitely rings true. Also explains why moving my schedule back to early is a constant struggle. I should go to bed.

David Berman, singer/songwriter of indie band Silver Jews, dead way too young at 52.

This video makes no sense. Kind of like a Storm Thorgerson album cover come to life.

Hey, don't you ever besmirch Billy Joel... Or do. Do what you want what you really really want... Yeah, the use of the Spice Girls music cue was just as brilliant. Even if you hate the Spice Girls. In fact, especially if you hate the Spice Girls.

And now I am reading it, too. I am definitely this book's target market. A lot is reminiscent of things I knew and thought (my theory has always been that dreams are the brain "freewheeling" -- I.E. unthrottled, which is very similar to how he describes it in the Joe Rogan interview; alcohol and most other drugs including sleeping pills are bad for sleep...), so I will read and learn.

So how did we miss new Charlatans?!?!? Comeback songs aren't usually this good, neither. The 80s are still alive and well.

So great -- I go back and listen to those 8 albums every once in a while, but that one stands out.

Weird, I can't chat no more.

Happy birthday, oh captain my captain! (party favour noise)

Unholy carp, this is so good...even the music...they just played the Billy Joel song, “Bigshot”, and it was so perfect on so many levels. I haven’t seen good use of music cues like this since “Action!”

I love Yes.

Me: been listening to this: It's kind of all over the place stylistically. I've been listening to the Contemporary Psychedelic playlist on Tidal, and I almost forgot that I wasn't listening to it. I dig it.

My sister bought a MacBook Air from @strid3r, she’s extremely happy with it. I bought a MacBook Air, myself. This one: https://www.microcenter.com/product/507657/macbook-air-md711ll-b-116-laptop-computer-pre-owned---silver I’m pretty happy with it, but I’m not running Cubase or DJ software on it. I’d definitely look for 16G on a mini or MBP or some such if you’re going to go back to a 2014 model.

Watching it too. I readed the original comics many moons ago. Am happy they didn’t tone it down (yet, on episode 2).

Yeah, condolences, but glad your day was nice.

Happy birthday, Antonio! (party favour noise)

Oh, okay! I used to work at 800 K street. My favourite was Absolute Noodle. That’s where I got that expensive but delicious make your own noodle bowl piled high with veggies.
