This is a pretty amazing collection of gig recordings from the 80s to 10s, digitised from tape. Appear to be good quality too and downloadable in a variety of formats.

blunt shaped doughnut with red sprinkles on the end

and blunt doughnuts, lol

it’s all infused pre-rolls & hard candies here, tonight!

I'm so excited that I got to do this analysis, bc it confirmed my expectations, but the scale of the numbers are fucking wild. I've been banging the "get tf off substack" drum for five years now and these numbers just blew up every fucking argument I've fielded and now I have hard stats to prove it.

More to come, but I just did a data analysis for someone who left substack for beehiiv some time ago and WOW, if your only motivation is money? Forget nazis, terfs, and pedos, just care about cash? You should get tf off substack now!

In case the field where your fucks are grown is fallow.

A picture of a library shelf with a small rolled up note on it. The note says “read this” in child’s handwriting.

A picture of the note unrolled. In the same child’s handwriting it reads “beware of the future!!”

Still thinking about this note I found in the children’s section of the public library when I worked there back in 2018. This kid tried to warn us…

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

excellent choices

my holy trinity is usually water bottle, something alcoholic (or just something tasty), and something caffeinated.

yes accurate

Two hooded figures with lamps approach a moonlit, isolated cottage. A woman answers the door. We have come for the child, says the hooded figure So soon? she asks It is time, says the hooded figure. The woman is distraught. We should never have got him a library card! What is done cannot be undone, says the hooded figure We couldn’t see the harm! We just wanted him to enjoy reading! For most, it ends there, says the hooded figure, turning away and walking into the wilderness Oh lord, What have I done! says the woman, the child walks past her and out into the darkness with them. Do not cry mother. I am a writer now.

TIL Harvey Fierstein, playwright, actor, gay icon for the ages, has now reinvented himself as a quilter. He's posting videos on Facebook of his quilting. He's really quite spectacular at it.

It's never too late to find your next thing.
