Re: Kaepernick: “I don’t see all the social injustice that some of these people see,” Ditka said Monday. “There has been no oppression in the last 100 years that I know of.”

I saw Ditka at ohare being taken to his gate on a golf cart. He was sort of sprawled out on the back like a sea lion.

I have a falsetto part to sing in one of my songs. I noticed that I can hit my pitches with ease if I sing straight up through my “mask” in the style of the Brothers Gibb. This was forcefully rejected by the rest of the band.

interesting that conservatives were militantly “we must reward hustle” when the target was affirmative action at elite universities and now, when faced with the success of south asians and other groups, it is “i think we are too meritocratic”

“Repainted nardo gray.” “Nardo Gray” would be a good taunt or epithet for one 10yo boy to hurl at another.

The "Is AI alive" conversation is 100% this, too. If you can be conned by a chatbot, I fear for your general safety. You are the guy at the stripclub who think the dancers really like you.

A friend who is a poet has tried to get me to write out my lyrics over the years and I’ve steadfastly refused. They’re meant to be heard in context. On the page they are lifeless and awkward.

You’re right. And those Slint guys moved to Chicago and played in bands that sounded nothing like Slint. A genuine betrayal!

Trying and failing to sound like Slint is the ethnic music of my land, The Suburbs.

This one goes out specifically to my wife who has been on a The Band kick lately. To the extent that she if flogging herself through Robbie Robertson’s excruciating *second* autobiography, which is just him paling around with famous people in LA. 😴

I can’t understand this impulse. When I crack my knuckles and get ready to write something, any old thing, I feel like I’m about to serve up a special treat for you the reader. I’d never deprive myself of exercising this particular power nor you of the pleasure. You’d think at the highest levels…

And it’s occurred to me that my 20th century music education could accurately be described as a German music education.

I’ve gotten on a Krautrock kick lately and noticed all my bandmates have German surnames. The kunstwerk is coming from inside the house! But my father’s Deutschophilia is a weird engine that nestled in my brain and I know is always running in the background.

Courtesy my father he got there first with Beethoven and can never be wholly winkled out of my musical consciousness.

I think the median voter believes in Natural Prices, and these are about how much things costed at the most recent point in their mind where they felt relatively financially stable. They expect politicians and businesses to honour this and take steps to ensure things cost their Natural Price.

Anyway, I know that the "we're all going to die by a robot army" hype is really fun for folks, and so that's going to have way more power than the "nah, dawg, that's dumb" skepticism. That's my cross to bear. But please do consider the possibility it's just very silly hype.

A Face in the Frost, which just read, had sort of a vibe like that. Never really understood precisely what was going on, and it was genuinely scary at times too.

I had a friend release an album called Metric the same week the band Metric released one and he said that it probably juiced his sales quite a bit.

The kind of sweaty conservative defensiveness I think we're all familiar with even today
