Weird old guy - record curator - wine drinker - cook - husband - dad - door knocker for local races - former stage 4 patient - getting kinda old. The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.

My issue with bitcoin is the same that I have with illegal drugs - all the bad actors you support by participating. So I don’t participate. I have greater obligations than just myself. Clearly I’m a person raised Catholic - though now fallen away.

I saw Ra several times in different places - big outdoor show, fancy theatre, tiny rock club, giant rock club, etc. and it was grand every time. I should have bought more records…but I do have two autographed by him.

I certainly listen to Fela far more often than Buddy. Though I only have one Tony Allen as leader album (and several by Rich).

Really a bunch of supposedly alpha leaders just decided to neuter themselves. What a pathetic and weak pile of Quislings.

I only know five of the top 20 due to my retreat into jazz poisoning (what my old roommate called my records)

I really did not like Egypt 71. Maybe I should listen again -but I probably will not

It’s a very fine album.

Join me for #recordsontheshelf this month- share your collection. #musicchallenge #vinyl I pulled an actual pop album before I saw this so it seems reasonable to join in…

Platner is a phony who is marketing himself as a change agent against an accomplished and qualified opponent. We will be lucky if he just turns into Fetterman or Sinema 2.0 and not Trump 2.0 - really not the right choice.

More than that. But that would get me to reconsider.

I live a mile from a Target and I stopped going when they decided to join the MAGA movement. Like Tesla - insulting your core customers is not a path to success. They need to repudiate and take action or I remain committed to nope.

Given how low propensity voters seem to have shifted so strongly to MAGA this seems like it might be a case of shooting themselves in the dick should it pass. But as an anti-democratic substitute poll tax - we should oppose it anyway.

My kid still wears one I bought about 15 years ago. I wear my ICE OUT sweatshirt when I’m in public nearly 100% of non-work days.

Bridesmaids I hope… though more salacious thoughts popped into my head.

Amazing! I can’t believe I put it off for so long…

5 discs of Hemphill and a few other things during the course of the day.

Sadly I have never seen the original Horo record.

I only hate beets / ate brain tacos and the texture was not great - otherwise fine. My kids for a long time only ate beige food.

I finally picked this up and it is probably all I will listen to until my wife returns on Monday.

I was at the 1978 Rust Never Sleeps show in St Paul - and it made me a Neil fan. A lot of hippies headed out when Crazy Horse hit after the acoustic set.

Murmur is peak REM for me - the only record I play still.

Moxie is the nectar of the gods! I understand from others that it tastes disgusting.
