What’s the deal with self check-outs in grocery stores? Have you seen these, folks? Just the other day I was at one when it told me to “please continue scanning.” Yeah, that’s right.

Whiskey bottles have the pull tab to start peeling the top off. Why aren’t wine bottles the same? Why are we so committed to taking that tiny knife to it instead?

I’ve purchased a lot of parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme in the past 72 hours in preparation for the bird day. In unrelated news, I’m singing “Scarborough Fair” incessantly, whether you want to hear it or not.

I saw a skunk in my backyard a few weeks ago late at night. Now I’m convinced that every time I go outside at night, a skunk will be waiting at my doorstep.
So far he hasn’t shown up.

Is there a Steely Dan contingent on Bluesky? Very exciting news this morning as their performance of Show Biz Kids on the Midnight Special has just been uploaded to YouTube.
It absolutely cooks! Great to get more live footage from the 70s.

For the past two hours, I’ve been listening to Roedelius - Selbstportrait slowed down by however much the AT-LP120 does - 8%?
Anyways, it’s fanatic. I feel like I blink and I have to flip the record over. Can’t get enough.
SLOW DOWN YOUR INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC IN AN ANALOG MANNER.

Today it’s muggy, gray, and raining on and off. This weather always makes me put on Think Tank by Blur. Something about the music just fits the atmosphere.

What is your favorite song to start the day with? For me, it’s the Keith Jarrett / Gary Peacock / Jack DeJohnette rendition of “God Bless the Child” from Standards, Vol. 1.
All seasons, all moods, it fits.

I wonder if ambient artists turn out albums the same way some jazz artists do. You’ll be listening to one of the greatest jazz albums of all time and the liner notes say “recorded on August 14th, 1967.”
