one unexpected outlook change from being a dad is taking the self care people 10x more seriously when it comes to dealing with weirdly directed anger and rage (including Online). many angry posts should have been naps or little packets of crackers

30yrs ago this wouldn't be in my 31. But 'Low' has risen so far as an album it's now my favourite. That is entirely down to me getting older and seeing that album as a masterpiece, seen as a complete work. This has a progressive menace to it.

Pops Staples - Somebody Was Watching

Pops Staples was born today in 1915! RIP. Pops and the Staples Singers were huge in the gospel and R&B movements of the 60s/70s. Pops knew how to use some tremolo on his guitar, too!
