A terrific piece by the other Carl Wilson.

A tribute to Sly Stone and Brian Wilson, two pop visionaries who retreated from a cruel world:

Just absolutely gutted to hear about the passing of Cole Heinowitz - incredible poet and translator, friend and legendary talker. I will miss her so much.

I wrote an op-ed in support of Nevada Humanities, and the notion (out of date, it’s true), that economic value is not, in fact, value. Enjoi: thenevadaindependent.com/article/opin...

I love poetry. Last night I read Renee Gladman, WS Graham, and Erik Soto and Yannos Ritsos. It’s just not boring and anhedonic like nearly every other feature of contemporary life.
