Finally, I have come to think of frogs as emblematic of that relationship -- that I barely understand -- between the mysteries of the transfer of life from one generation to the next and our irrevocable, necessary commitment to the use of nuclear energy. This association of images is ambiguous for me; I do not know how it started, nor whether I should trust it. I suspect that, like other preconceptions about biological "facts," it defies explanation and can be stated only as an admitted bias for whatever facts there are to be discovered.

Tell me have you heard this yet: "This sounds like Garrison Keillor, only worse," or, "His voice is so relaxing. I could do yoga to it." Think the second one is true, if you were inclined.
― peacocks, Saturday, 15 January 2011 05:53 (thirteen years ago) link
i find it relaxing in that i float on the waves of its words+music but i wldn't be able to do yoga to it, too distracting in its art
― obliquity of the ecliptic (rrrobyn), Saturday, 15 January 2011 17:01 (thirteen years ago) link
a lot of ppl find it relaxing, think ian said it was the most relaxing record, tho he put it better. there's a thing on the label website quoting a dude who wld give it to ppl at bad times in their life
