The problem with the sauna is that I have to sit with other men in various states of nakedness who are coughing, sneezing, listening to music on their phone speaker, or trying to talk to me.

Saw an ad for True Classic shirts on FB and ordered some and really like them. Same for my solo stove. My first thought when asked if online ads work is “No. Of course not. I just ignore them.” But then I remembered these purchases.

Those tanks and bombs and jets and nukes are kept in states though. A secessionist state with a federal arsenal could opt to hold onto it. Ukraine gave Russia the nukes it held within its border. Looking back probably not a great idea.

You might like McCartney 321 on Hulu. He basically sits at a sound board with Rick Rubin isolating tracks and talking about how the songs came together.

We almost didn’t have Confederacy of Dunces. The fact that it was published is a miracle. Toole’s mom was persistent enough and managed to get the manuscript in front of someone with just enough patience to give it a look.

Pandora can be maddening. Create a station for Pixies. Some Bowie song plays. Ok that’s cool. Create a station for Velvet Underground. Same Bowie song plays. Ok. I guess that makes sense. Create a station for Warren Zevon. Same goddamned Bo

I’ve never had a smart tv that ran Netflix, etc natively better than a Roku or Fire Tv. Non-integrated means nothing here. You press a button and get Netflix whether it’s on the Roku or the slower integrated Samsung software.

I much preferred the print CSM to their online version. With the print I knew what to read front to back. With their web version it seems less organized. Stories remain for a week or longer as new ones crop up. It’s hard to know where to fo

I can never seem to get to the heart of what Krishnamurthi is trying to say. I just find myself getting lost in his words. I can’t tell if there’s no there there or if I’m just not understanding his angle.

The priest’s story of the gang first coming upon him sitting on a rock in the middle of the desert like he had been waiting for them somewhat supports that. “There he set on a rock in the middle of the greatest desert you’d ever want to see

I highly recommend the podcast Re:Joyce by Frank Delaney if you're at all interested in Ulysses. He reads Ulysses and discusses it - sometimes an episode is dedicated to just one sentence, sometimes a paragraph. Tragic that he died bef
