I need to argue with him more instead of just laughing, though, because not all thought is linear!

Chris Brokaw opening for Chris Smither at 04 Center Austin 10/10/26 blew my mind & heart wide open. The legend Smither's last US tour. What a night. Magic in the air! Legends, passion, love, kindness, history, humor. A night I'll never forget.

I love listening to my cute boyfriend critique music I love: "Yes, Arthur Russell, we are always on another thought, thought is LINEAR"

Sean...I'm bringing blue and yellow everything, because my boo is red-green colorblind and that's also the color theme of the album!

Do you ever think about how weird it is that John Lurie is such a wildly expressive saxophone player, but his actual voice is the most deadpan, monotone thing imaginable? This is coming up, because my cute boyfriend is going to read me his memoir in the hammock...in THAT VOICE...he's been studying

I'm about to be very busy being in love, but I do have an important disco opinion to share, which is that I am pretty sure "I Specialize in Love" by Sharon Brown is the only jam that the extended mix on the 12" is better than the Disco Purrfection vrsn, but I remain extremely open to dialogue.

Important realization the other day: if the productive tension between Minutemen's "Maybe Partying Will Help" and "Escapade" by Janet Jackson is the central dialectic of my soul, "Die, Alright!" by the Hives is the most exact point of the tension! Reality + escape from it, but the escape is death!

Like the device was not playing that song ever again after that moment where it got stuck, then the device died and could not be connected to anything, and my stereo amp still said it was connected to this device playing this song for MONTHS

I'd like for everyone who is/has been skeptical of my ability to control the weather with my stereo, who doesn't think astrology, numerology, & tarot are very serious things to consider, that the Lion's Gate disconnected my Bluetooth from a song on a device it got stuck on for three months! What?

Aikido summer camp in Boulder was fun! Laughing in the background framed by the triangle of power formed by Tres Hofmeister Shihan and Kamenna Lee Sensei and being uke for Hino Shihan from Hombu Dojo in Japan, who is so kind and wonderful!

Ad for this came up in my insta feed and gotta say that rich people cryogenically freezing their dead pets for a future Walt Disney-style revival is the exact kind of plutocratic dystopian shit I have come to expect from this timeline 10/10 no notes. cryopets.com

I was asleep & she bolted under the bed to hide before I could grab her. (The space underneath the bed is so narrow that my carry-on size Pelican can't fit underneath it.) Dogs can do the most insane things when they're scared. I had to pull her out gently on her side, like delivering a breach baby.

Lucy and I are hiding away in a storage container turned into a small, narrow house with some porch extensions built off of it in remote woods and I was worried about noise being in a steel container, which came to pass when there was a horrible thunderstorm in the middle of the night...1/2

I have this incredible feeling of stability since deciding to quit drinking forever. I no longer am counting days or wondering if and when I will have a drink again. So freeing. My stability doesn't feel situational anymore. I just feel totally capable and in control of my life. Wild stuff.

The water in the remote woods of PA tastes quite bad, so I will be surviving on herbal tea, I think. Glad I brought it.

African, can confirm: every moment of your life has been spent during an atrocity somewhere, perpetuated or exacerbated by a larger number of countries and corporations than many care to admit.

Your Prime Day reminder that half of Amazon warehouse workers struggle with food & housing costs. A third have had to rely on government assistance like SNAP — which was gutted last year. If Bezos can spend $500M on a yacht, Amazon can afford to treat its workers with dignity.

Black text on a white page that reads as follows:

In January, our administration inherited a $12 billion budget deficit — a fiscal crisis greater than the Great Recession. 

Today I am proud to announce that our balanced budget has cleared the final step and passed the New York City Council. 

We balanced the budget by taxing the rich and making government more efficient. We did not balance this budget on the backs of working people, and we never will. 

Every year that follows will build on these principles: Honest budgeting. Fiscal discipline. Transparent government. And an unwavering belief that working people deserve a government that delivers for them every day.
