Want to go visit the national parks this year? Sorry. The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

a Bard student wants to talk to me about Jandek so I'm revisiting some stuff and reminding myself that "The Cell" is really one of the most remarkable recordings I've ever heard. Hard to recapture now that feeling of the shock of him suddenly appearing live and then doing THIS but wow what an album.

Letting go of books is hard. Here’s a Reno library volunteer hauling off my donation 👋😢. At the next library sale I’ll probably buy some of them back 🙄

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last. Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

TIL re: Slugs’ Saloon (legendary NYC jazz dive, Sun Ra appearing weekly): “The owners were devotees of [...] Gurdjieff; in Gurdjieff’s first major book [...] the extraterrestrial Beelzebub refers to the inhabitants of Earth as ‘three-brained beings,’ also known as ‘slugs.’”
