How to Fix a Typewriter and Your Life
This is the story of how a man traded steady, grinding corporate security for a dying craft and, in the process, found his soul.

Elis Regina gostava de cozinhar e mandava bem nas panelas, inclusive gostava de fazer feira e era rigorosa nas escolhas. Quando chamava os amigos pra jantar na sua casa e ganhava elogios, respondia: -- É que você ainda não me viu cantando!

Just finished this excellent book on the cultural backgrounds to ‘The Waste Land’ and its relationship to the work of Eliot’s contemporaries, with a refreshing emphasis on women modernists. A good book to read alongside Matthew Hollis’s ‘The Waste Land: A Biography of a Poem’ (2022).

For very specific stuff I listen to occasionally, I keep a well-organized digital library. I miss spending time with it—reviewing and expanding my digital collection—so I might set aside time for that soon. It’ll be fun.

Marcelo Nogueira @marcelonoah.bsky.social · 23/04/2025
I also collect LPs and 78s, which are reserved for listening rituals. I’ve been making more space for those lately, and that’s where I go deep into the experience. I buy both old and new records, often directly from artists at concerts or through their websites.

Marcelo Nogueira @marcelonoah.bsky.social · 23/04/2025
I should add that I also have an actual radio in my kitchen, and I have a wonderful time listening to my city’s late-night broadcasts—real shows curated by people who care about and study their repertoire, no algorithmic slop. So there’s always an element of chance built into listening.

Marcelo Nogueira @marcelonoah.bsky.social · 23/04/2025
Still, I’m open to trying other platforms until I get a real sense of what’s out there. In fact, I’m excited to keep exploring. One thing is certain: I won’t be going back to Spotify. They offer the worst product, and they’re neither more affordable nor more user-friendly.

By the end of the trial, I decided to move on. I bought a new pair of AirPods and received three free months of Apple Music (my thinking was, this basically gave me a $30 discount on the earbuds). The sound quality there is solid too, and it integrates seamlessly with my computer.

My biggest concern was losing years’ worth of carefully curated playlists, but in a way, that loss felt liberating. Without playlists, I opened myself up to change.

Marcelo Nogueira @marcelonoah.bsky.social · 23/04/2025
First, I signed up for Tidal’s one-month free trial—just to ease out of my old habits without going cold turkey. The sound quality was noticeably better, which made me pay closer attention to the listening itself. That, in turn, became a joy on its own.

Marcelo Nogueira @marcelonoah.bsky.social · 22/04/2025
True. I've been off Spotify for three months now, and my music-listening habits are doing great—better now, actually. Opting out looked impossible at first, but let me tell you this: it is not only possible, it is liberating and transformative. Just do it! open.substack.com/pub/littledo...

Adrien Brody took home the award for Best AI-Assisted Overacting and didn’t even bother to thank the software Respeecher that made him “sound authentic” in Hungarian. No need to learn anything when you can just have the editor, a native speaker, feed his own voice into an AI and patch over your act.
