This reco from @philipsherburne.bsky.social's newsletter made me exit my body for a bit. Pipe organ drone from one Stephen O'Malley. (@totalvibration.bsky.social on the off-chance you haven't heard this, oh my god)

The new Johnny Blue Skies / Sturgill Simpson jawn is a ray of pure, exuberant sunshine.

Hell yeah I love that
ββThe persecution is the point,β said Rep. Abi Boatman, a Wichita Democrat and the only transgender member of the Legislature, who received the [Kansas Dept of Revenue] notice on Wednesday.β To underscore that: a Kansas state legislator is among those whose driverβs license will be voided.

Let it into your heart
this is extremely fucking important, esp with what just happened in kansas. they are trying to criminalize every aspect of our existence. i try not to be alarmist about things but this is where we are and it is BAD bad
Will be calling my rep this morning. This bill is atrocious.

A YouTube comment under CCR's 'Keep on Chooglin': I choogled a little a few nights ago...... thinking about chooglin some tonight.
I hadn't thought about chooglin' tonight, but this guy is making me change my mind.
Jethro Tull should be in.
The eagle ears of @belownirvana.bsky.social brought this album to my attention, and it is sublime. Shimmery, cosmic synths and piano that pulse in and out like fireflies.

'Revel in Contempt' is such a banger
Last Sunday when you and I were looking for them? They were perched above my car, pooping on it.
NYCers, this takes all of 30 seconds to do. Please help fight for our libraries.

This is the way. 9:45 at the very latest.
I can't do it either. They're like fingernails on a chalkboard to me, and I retain nothing.

I was also addicted to Pepper II
Those fucking bats, man
Hah the first home video game I ever played was the Smurfs game on this bad boy. My neighbor Alex Newbold had it.
Dang this is fantastic. Related - if this sort of zone speaks to you, Mind Mold is definitely in the neighborhood, and this album is astounding.

You have a lot of good ideas, but this may be your best.
I loooove Elori Saxl. Peeping now.
In his latest newsletter, @philipsherburne.bsky.social says this album goes down "like a dose of bottled sunshine." I don't disconcur. If you like ambling, sun-dappled motorik excursions aided by some hazy synth magic, this will banish your winter blahs.

Just leaving this here so we can all enjoy it tonight.

'Flow My Tears, the Angel Investor Said'
Spend 70 seconds completely absorbed in a task while shrieking as loud as you can
