Hugely important parent-child moment, that! "Let's stand in the cold and marvel at Kohoutek."

Yeah I really Musk’d that one

Lol @ that video. That brings back so many childhood memories.

My first contact with another being!

doggy say hi to me

i made this my twitter avatar for a few minutes, but then realized (as i was trying to make a serious comment about a friend of mine's mother that died of Covid) that it would undercut some of my intentions

More of an excuse to test my new uke than a sketch, but hi!

^^^^ PBKR

thanks, WmC

Some neat details in that home...

- Rock wall(?)
- Mounted candle holder (perhaps contains a heart drop)
- Cool hanging lights
- Open staircase implying interesting atypical blueprint
- Space-age hovering metallic top hats; a sign of wealth
- Wood accents

Yeah, I was about to say: PBKR, nice pad.

yeah smart furniture 'n' fixtures

Ha, that's my parents place. We're here taking care of my dad. They converted a 1700s log cabin and added a barn-like addition. Cool mix of old and new.

it's gorgeous. an updated house with 1700s bones is something i dream about.

nice cat as well!

happy 420 y'all

excellent

i've been in the woods since April 16 and I will return May 5. cellular internet is almost non-existent and the wi-fi is unreliable and not to be trusted. it is beautiful here! when i get back i will show you my new paintings and you will be like "..."

i am reading the oxford annotated bible WITH APOCRYPHA, a death in the family (holy shit, Ralph), a couple art books on the de koonings, Women of Abstract Expressionism (holy shit judith godwin). high all the time. i'm in Oshkosh this weekend to literally recharge my batteries and downgrade my personal smell from egregious to regrettable

Lookin' good, KM.

hi, Karl!

luv u, bb

a confluence of discussing athleisure wear, humpty hump, and just noticing that a wdyll thread exists compelled me to post this:

oh no are you being given a purple nurple

wait, what's a purple nurple?

(i feel like this is the moment in middle school just before you get dunked in a toilet)

(also, HAI everyone! <3 it's crazy how a 7-day ILX break feels like an eternity to me, but it has been a very good time. i feel very good. i'm also taking this opportunity to go full-on BEARDO, i don't give a fuck! last time i got this far i looked in the mirror and resembled my dad, and it was so fucking weird that i immediately shaved. this time, the mirrors are foggy and hang above compost toilets at 90% capacity. it's not a place to dwell or think. or to shave. so i will pass across that mysterious hair-length border that i ran up against a year ago, this time only knowing it by touch. and by smell. for i am smelly. not today, i just took a shower. but starting tomorrow, and again for a long time, yes, very smelly. lol!

"Key West" was the song of 2020

but yes, i will report in with a full on beard update on May 5! i am downloading some more music for the next ll-day cabin binge.

but also, i must say that Éliane Radigue's "kyema", from trilogie de la mort, has been especially excellent. there's this part about 30 or 40 minutes in where it just dissolves to static noise. hard to explain how good that sounds against the backdrop audio of mostly quiet, occasionally bird-crossed forest noise. but it gets there so gradually that it's no shock at all, in fact it is extremely, even unsettlingly pleasant. and then about 5 to 10 minutes later, it's been transformed back into another drone. i don't think it ever comes back, after that. but very good!

"Key West" was not the song of 2020, let me just take that back. but i fucking love that song

Hah I drove past Cedarburg today and was thinking “hmm I wonder how KM is doing out there”

is that close?! i'm near Omro, now, but my main spot is near the Rubicon. to get there, some might say, you have to "cross the" county line and any number of private property lines, but it's in a beautiful spot! there is a lot of land, there is a guy there that wanders and forages and knows about mushrooms, and he tells me about the medicinal and druggy effects of local plants.

:D

At last -- wilderness reclaimed it!
