I’m enjoying the hell out of John Wiswell’s “The Dragon Has Some Complaints”, but legit did not expect the cheeky reference to Bad Dragon when it came up. Also, pretty sure that, at its heart, this book is kind of about adopting a weird feral cat, from the cat’s POV.

I began reading Mighty Real, Barry Walter’s’ LGBTQ history of pop music, on Monday and have been enjoying it so much. If queer history or music history is your thing, I’d enthusiastically recommend it.

Wylding Hall by Elizabeth Hand, about a rock band in late 1960s Britain who chose the wrong old manor house to make their next album in, is my absolute favorite haunted house story.

Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to get through this thing called life. Electric word, life. It means forever & that’s a mighty long time. But I’m here to tell you there’s something else - the afterworld. A world of never ending happiness. You can always see the sun, day or night.

I wear suits a few days a week for work, so they’re basically normal clothes for me. That said, it’s still very uplifting to my spirits to be walking around in a white linen suit on a Friday in the spring.

There was *one sentence* I read yesterday in Dan Ozzi’s “Sellout: The Major Label Feeding Frenzy That Swept Punk, Emo, & Hardcore 1994-2007” that referenced Reel Big Fish, and 30 hours later their “Sell Out” is still on infinite loop in my brain. Send help.

Stayed up much too late finishing “Haunt Sweet Home” by sarahpinsker.bsky.social, which I started reading at lunch. It’s hard to talk about without giving spoilers, but it’s an absolutely terrific ghost story (& more). Absolutely a book that makes me want to grab people by the lapels & rave at.

Finished listening to Grady Hendrix’s “Witchcraft for Wayeard Girls” this afternoon. What an absolute monster of a book. There’s plenty of horror, both supernatural and natural, but also a story of the way society in the 1970s (and now, if maybe less blatantly) casually lies & manipulates girls.

One of the things I really appreciate in Jesse Rifkin’s “This Must Be the Place”, a study of music scenes in Manhattan focusing on the venues themselves, is that he includes a suggested discography in each chapter. There’s too broad a range of styles to expect reader familiarity with everything.
