“"That relationship we have with cats now only gets started about 3.5 or 4,000 years ago, rather than 10,000 years ago."

Cats became our companions way later than you think
In true feline style, cats took their time in deciding when and where to join us on the sofa.

Sometimes you just have to listen to the 69 Love Songs Lp in one sitting.

When you know the inspiration behind it I think it's safe to say that Halloween Parade by Lou Reed is one of the most truly heartbreaking songs. New York is an incredible record.

In Polvo I hear ideas and riffs I made up but discarded as too weird. They make it work somehow as something caught between off the cuff and tightly composed.

When you're gathered with your family this holiday it's good to remember what this day is really about, Gorgon, the sixteen foot tall sentient cooked turkey that grants wishes to the children.

Hey, does your kid love Stranger Things? If so I suggest letting them read Paper Girls, a graphic novel by Brian K Vaughan. It has that same science fiction kids on bikes time travel vibe and is very good. Kids need books.

Static is my Thanksgiving turkey. He came to check on me and slept on my legs at some point this morning.
