7yo says she doesn’t like to watch Charlie Brown bc the music makes her feel weird and sad

Since I began a new medication a week ago, 75% of the hearing has gone from my right ear. This is making me appreciate how much stuff happens on the right channel of a record (50%).

Here's a fun little fact for you: Edwin S. Porter directed THE GREAT TRAIN ROBBERY (1903) but he also directed THE LITTLE TRAIN ROBBERY just two years later. A kiddie gang led by a tween bandit queen steal a miniature locomotive. It was based on Porter's childhood horseplay with his friends.

I love the introductions in old ghost story books. From Witches, Ghosts and Signs by Patrick W. Gainer

Working on this Saruman card for Wizards of the Coast a few years back was great fun since I got to draw evil things. #mtg #lordoftherings #magicthegathering #illustrator #illustration

If you look at the earliest text print ads before "advertising" and "copywriting" became a thing there's a vibe to them that's quite similar to AI flyers - enormous amounts of text to make sure all the available ad space is filled and every possible detail accounted for

Can anybody help me out with some dream pop recommendations?

Lives in a sonic Venn diagram of early Pink Floyd and early Tame Impala. Steady Sun is helmed by a guitarist and composer with credits on recent records from Clairo, El Michels Affair and more. #newmusic steadysun.bandcamp.com/track/mercy-...

"Empty and peaceful the old house dreamed, with sunlight shifting from room to room and no sound to break the silence, save in one place, where the voices of children could be heard faintly above the rustling of a tree."

Ebert nailed fandoms many yrs ago way before they metastasized even more under social media.

This is tonight! Come to Moon Palace at 6 p.m. on Thursday to hear me chat with Marissa about her book, A DUBIOUS GLAMOR, which has a magic sword, harpies, and resistance to fascism. Also, cake. (Both in the book, and at the event.)

The Pandora Mark Knopfler station keeps playing the worst song from every album I own. I think people are giving the old thumbs-up only to songs that don't have any tension in them. All Cruisin' Stock Broker $80k Convertible Weekend music all the time.

@kellylink.bsky.social Just wanted to say thanks so much for recommending Between Two Fires-- it was so, so good! It's one of the best books I have ever read.

Just found out that Robyn Hitchcock wrote "Balloon Man" as a spec tune for The Bangles. So interesting-- knowing that, I can totally hear it. He wrote for The Bangles like they were a musical instrument. youtu.be/l7hxAZTTEVw?...

I was in an antique store in New Hampshire today and the hair salon radio station they were playing said "all human music, all the time". 1. That is weird. 2. It makes me wonder where terrestrial radio stands on the ai issue. Is it better or worse for them?

"Witness my Act and Deed", 1882 - Frank Paton, British (1855 - 1909)

I asked an Irish student once who is the Irish Bob Dylan and he said Christy Moore. This is the most powerful anti-fascist song I've ever heard. This crowd is simply not having it from fascists. youtu.be/aAsJPnHzyBQ?...

we live inside a dream

I love this song above all others, all the different versions of it: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Cxf...

A creep

There’s a punk “year zero” version of this too, with so much amazing stuff written off as “hippie shit” and boring meat and potatoes regressive rock lauded because “it’s punk”. 50 year old music? No thanks, grandad! 48 year old music? Timeless genius.

Three figures I can think of who know their pre-Elvis pop - - Paul McCartney - Elvis Costello - Bob Stanley (of St Etienne) Like anything else this has its blind alleys & garden paths but you can say it’s a large part of their continued appeal

This is such a beautiful song, but I especially love how well-recorded the orchestra is here. You can get more detail on DG or somebody with digital recording but you can't beat this sound in my book. youtu.be/D-zusE3uqmk?...

Baddest motherfuckers of all time.
