Listening to the 50th anniversary edition of The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway, a concept album by Genesis that's been a big part of my life since I was a teenager.

Today is #ComingOutDay. In Nov 2023 I came out as #bisexual, after having come out to my cousin in '94, following which I erased that from my identity. Since then, I've also come out as #trans and #nonbinary, and started going by Fievel. It's been quite a couple of years for self-discovery.

I'm mentally exhausted, so I'm going to put away my phone and hang out with Bob on the porch.

Joni Mitchell, Tom Waits, Tracy Chapman, Cameron Winter (Geese), Liz Stokes (The Beths), Lambrini Girls. Just to name a few. And to ignore about 100 years of Tin Pan Alley and Brill Building writers.

It’s probably Stevie Wonder

I also need to know: I am fairly middle-of-the-road on Taylor Swift but someone I know called her the Greatest Living Lyricist. She is not.

Who is yours? Either the greatest or your favorite?

What’s the word where you’re from that, when pronounced exactly as it looks, identifies a tourist immediately?

This morning I broadcast my interview with indie band Daisy The Great. Got home and produced this month's episode of The Jazz Session. Members already have it, normies get it on 10/15. It's a really good one, featuring Carmen Staaf. Now I'm prepping for a jazz interview I have tomorrow. Links next:

This is an EXTREMELY IMPORTANT PRO TIP, y'all. That place is the bomb. #poetry #charlottesville #catfish #collards

dirtgod raven mack @dirtgod.bsky.social · 3d

one week from today
a little protip: Diilishus Fish & Chicken is half a block away & open til 9 (which means after the open mic)

you can listen to a bunch of poets, featuring my raggedy ass, AND then get you some catfish & collard greens (my likely choice)

Fievel 🇵🇸🏳️‍🌈 (they/them) @jasoncrane.org · 10d

Two weeks from tonight! Bring a poem to the open mic and also hear featured poet @dirtgod.bsky.social read! #poetry #charlottesville @raqc-cville.bsky.social

Rush just announced they're going on tour with a different drummer and probably a keyboardist. I didn't see that coming. youtube.com/watch?v=koiX...

My sister and I do remote movie marathons where one of us calls the other, phones on speaker and muted, then we unmute to chat. Mostly we rewatch our favorite action franchises. Today it's a Wickathon, Wickapalooza, Wickfest, Wickmania. #JohnWick

I fucking love Lenny Bruce. I discovered the Thank You Masked Man LP in my college radio station's library in 1992 and I was instantly hooked. Went to the local record store and found The Berkeley Concert on CD. Eventually collected everything. (It took many listens to get all the references.)

Fievel 🇵🇸🏳️‍🌈 (they/them) @jasoncrane.org · 6d

Not hard to figure out why.

Welp, I made the mistake of watching a Drumeo video about "Tom Sawyer" and now I need to listen to Rush for the rest of the night. I first started listening to them in 1987 and I've never stopped. youtu.be/0nqmBjBIXOg?...

Has anyone checked to see if things get even better here in Omelas if we chuck another kid or two in the oubliette
