posts from the other site you think about at least once per week? I'll start:

a post from twitter user kukukadoo reading: "trump: they say it’s a dream. is it a dream, folks? i don’t think so. there was an acc-i-dent. on mulholland drive. “no hay banda.” it’s all an illusion, reality’s an illusion. betty, some people call her diane, beautiful girl. very sad. a lesbian, you know, which we love"

if i’ve ever been inclined to patriotism it was because my country produced people like dolly parton. as a history, as an ethos, as a system america is a horror; but wild weeds still grow in its cracks, and make it better than it is

Snagged a clean '97 reprint. Some folks suspect this was the last album cut from the real masters before they were lost in the '08 Universal fire. The recent Acoustic Sounds cut is excellent but this feels a little closer to the source.

I’ve spent the last two weeks or so listening to a very bonkers moving coil cartridge a buddy loaned me through a set of step-transformers I designed and hand wound. Good excuse to revisit all my favorite records with different preamp/amp permutations. #hifi #vinyl

Music edition: Croz was surprisingly affable. Not always the case with him, as I'm led to understand. Two of my favorite niche acoustic musicians were profoundly rude to me at an event, which was a shocker. Quit listening to their stuff as a result.
