me when i see the first groundhog of the year
The Feelies' first album is revered, but my favorite is the relatively ignored Time for a Witness (it's the guitars). Inspirational verse: "Open your eyes and you'll find the light / Decide what side you're on"
this chapter from an oral history of The Village Voice might be worth a look:
Related to the mighty Vulgar Boatmen, the Silos seem forgotten, but this song was huge for my freshman year of college. I still hear the chorus every summer: “Today I’m gonna be / Driving down Highway 441 with the windows down / Beer in one hand, radio blasting / My old needs I won’t recognize“
imagine placing a bet on the prospect of nuclear war

Daylight Saving Time began this morning 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞
even though I've been counting down to this, I woke up at 9.35 & was like whoa why did I sleep so late
hope he's all right. so sorry this is happening
it goes so hard (I rue the day that I ever met you / And deeply regret you getting close to me)
apparently 1996 was a big year for me. I know Massive Attack & Tricky are not forgotten, but what about Nearly God
DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME BEGINS TOMORROW AT 2 AM LFG
fun facts about DST:
it is not Daylight "Savings" Time
it should be the year-round standard time
Arizona & Hawaii do not observe DST (note that these are in sunny climes)
ah i didn't know this
remind me to tell you sometime about how being bullied for my 8th-grade Spock Halloween costume (avec tricorder) helped push me into a writing career
New header courtesy of @alienvsrobbins.bsky.social. Was hugely flattered The Ends of the World played some role in inspiring maybe the most succinct account of why geology is soul-altering
wow, this is awesome. i am flattered in return. & yes, that book is a perspective-transformer
every day until the first day of spring i will post one great lost song from the '90s. today's entry stayed in the worst cd player i've ever owned for over a month in 1996
oh you're gonna want some popcorn for this
love it, but repeater will always be my fave
bro there are only 2 days till Daylight Saving Time
Rereading Bataille for a paper & remembering the crazy French roommate I had in my 20s. I woke up one morning to find a note on the kitchen table—"Returned to France. This is for you"—beneath which was a copy of Bataille's Visions of Excess that I still have

sometimes I am struck by some arrangement of quotidian objects & wish I knew how to take better pictures
Gang Starr aren’t forgotten, but this track seems to fly beneath radar. I can still recite it like a poem
