I would also recommend James Gleick's book "Chaos", one of the only non-fiction books I enjoyed enough to read more than once

I wonder what it's like to die knowing you're a meme

to the people who don't want to pay to look at screens and buttons after a long day of being paid to look at screens and buttons: my brothers in Christ, have you heard about acoustic instruments? legend has it that they inspired the dark art of physical modeling synthesis

I'm taking care of an octagenarian rn and I just wanna say that it's not cool to be that old and in control of the nation regardless of whether he's currently okay. shit falls apart really quick at that age. don't get me wrong, I'll vote for him if he's the option, but ffs can we please get a reasonably aged president already?

started dating an amazing woman who, in a span of about 90 seconds, asked whether I liked boards of canada (she played wildlife analysis) followed by asking if i was into john fahey. unngh! she has no social media accounts. she's a painter. she's smart as hell. she enjoys my rants about metaphysics. she's got a great relationship with her family. we play the same videogames. she bosses me around in the kitchen. she's witchy and skeptical at the same time. she's the same height as me (6'3") and gets real bitey/scratchy when she's excited. already got & gave a few bruises. absolute wifey material. luke is happy.

went to a decent sized party on Saturday (50 or so people), first party I've been to in literally years... just found out the host has COVID. and I spent like an hour driving with her yesterday. and I'm supposed to be on a flight across the US in less than 48 hours.

ahem, aristotle would like a word with you

legit heard this song in a dream recently

christ had to search for this by way of my own comment quoted by mcbpete quoted and linked by usagi and just don't even if it doesn't have you at the blip

noticed this knot on a board at work today and thought "you know, if mole people ever made a sort of roman empire, this would definitely be on a coin or two"

it's the top of spooky season imo and this has been pretty good. just got through an excerpt of Nathaniel Hawthorne's "Ethan Brand" which was pretty dang great this Blair anthology is in chronological order so it's getting spookier as it goes but so far I'm loving it

late 90s electro, be still my soul

this song has been there for me through a number of tough situations over the years

I'll try to keep this short edit: failed at that building adjacent to mine burnt down on Aug 3 (no one was seriously injured and I even made friends with the guy upstairs who had been annoying me - tragedy, the great uniter, i guess) I've been displaced since then, huge amount of smoke damage to all my stuff my renters insurance adjuster is a cunt and is trying to screw me I'm supposed to keep my windows closed until the burnt building is fully removed, and it's going to be hot as hell for at least the next month I don't have a bed or a couch or pillows, all thrown away. I'm broke af and can't afford to buy new shit without insurance $ but that's gonna take a while I have missed a ton of work because I keep getting called to the apartment to meet with people my electronic music gear may or may not be damaged and I won't be able to tell immediately so my insurance is being cagey I'm tired meanwhile, Maui is keeping my life in perspective and I'm thankful I still have my stuff and friends who will let me sleep at their place
