i was in a store tuesday and they had a walrus penis bone for sale but it was pretty expensive and i don't know what i'd do with a penis bone that big
also the demo bonus tracks on the residents' "eskimo" reissue are honestly very good
i actually prefer miniatures, i get the refreshing feeling of doing light reading without having to plow through all those unimportant words

I don't know what I'm into at the moment. I feel like I blew the last month not being into anything. I started a book on the history of Africa which is pretty good.

i'm not really "into" it deeply, but just the whole theory of endosymbiosis is really interesting - a lifeform (like a mitochondrian) that becomes integrated within another lifeform (a cell), with its own set of DNA. it's fun to imagine a human being wholly subsumed into a different lifeform, into a new symbiotic relationship

so I have a chronic habit of buying books and just not reading them, and also my bookshelves are all full so I have like 7 or 8 stacks of books scattered around my apartment. a couple months ago I decided to go through them all and make a short list of stuff I was most excited about reading first, and wound up with like 25 books, so that's what I'm pulling from. So far I've read Charles Burns' "Black Hole" and now I'm 1/3 of the way through "The Great Gatsby". This is my full "short"list

god, that's what i need to read more of, indie comics. they're so expensive though...
the only one of those i've read is transmetropolitan. i'd give it a thorough "ehhh".

I picked that up when I went through a cyberpunk craze a few years ago and bought any cheapish cyberpunk comics I could get my hands on. I think the only thing I actually made it through reading was Paul Pope's "100%" which was NOT cyberpunk and tbh was like on the better side of mediocre but not really excellent

i read pope's batman alternate universe batman story where batman, in nazi germany, saves the life of ludwig von mises. it was very lol. that's libertarianism for you - the sort of person who, if they find themselves in nazi germany, immediately thinks "OH NO MUST PROTECT LUDWIG VON MISES", because that was the real horror of the nazis obviously

yess nath & stevie (the two stevies lol)! I came here to say reading, although that’s kind of always my answer to what are you into right now, but lately for the first time in a while I’m reading the way I used to viz busting out a book at every opportunity*, staying up at night to finish things &c. It’s a good feeling.*including at lunch at work, something I never did before at this job as I like my coworkers and it feels slightly rude

tall glasses of water w a splash of cranberry juice (like super tart 100% cranberry juice, not juice cocktail)
― vision joanna newsom (Stevie D(eux)), Thursday, 21 March 2019 23:33 (five years ago) link

― j., Thursday, 21 March 2019 23:38 (five years ago) link
stevie I highly recommend getting the 100% cranberry juice CONCENTRATE (they have it at WF and in hippy groceries, also amazon of course), adding just a touch of simple syrup, and adding club soda to taste. It is like the opposite of your cran water but so good with the intense cranberriness, as opposed to that dumbed-down-with-apple-juice cocktail crap.

Managing ti find a book I was looking for a copy of for years on the same day I discovered it was risiing in price online.Looked on the shelf in the local 2nd hand/remainder bookshop tonight and there wasa copy sitting there. Haven't looked in there for it for a while so wonder how long it was there. Just been reminded because its by a guy who does a podcast I've been listening to recently.

cumbia, many styles exist of course but i feel particularly drawn to the often very strange and darker sounds of cumbia sonidera (typically mexican?), its heavy, languid rhythms, electric keyboards, bizarre vocals, folk melodies that drip with sadness. physical but also very heady and hypnotic musicana roxannethat weightless, insubstantial sound of late-era black ark productions, eg heptones party time, junior murvin police and thieves, much of which i couldn't get into the first time around when i preferred the heavier rootsier stuff like ape-o-logybrice mardenanish kapoor's etchings
