A trail run with blackberries and late summer flowers on Oregon's Sauvie Island A late summer run for NPR's Brian Mann featured an abundance of ripe, wild berries and a dip in the river.

This article pairs well with my song about Blackberry Picking on Sauvie. And gives me an excuse to once again promote my next album - (almost done 7 years in the ma

Interesting for sure. I'd be interested to read your full thoughts after reading the review (or the book) but it's true that the premise of the book may have been over simplistic and put too much blame on Pornography and/or Porn culture. Of which I know nothing and you know a lot.

How Pop Culture Betrayed Millennial Women (Gift Article) In “Girl on Girl,” Sophie Gilbert makes a searing case that trends from the 1990s and 2000s, online and off, damaged young women in deep, dark ways.

On today’s @nprfreshair.bsky.social I’m talking confessional songwriting as heard on new LPs by Lucy Dacus and Jeffrey Lewis: www.npr.org/2025/04/01/n...

Oof, unfortunately that is one of the most famous worst pictures of Jeff ever. From his NY times profile many years ago. Not sure how that got chosen

Albums by Lucy Dacus and Jeffrey Lewis show the range of confessional songwriting Dacus mixes confession and intimacy on Forever is a Feeling. The EVEN MORE Freewheelin' Jeffrey Lewis nods to Dylan's early New York City folkie days, with a great song about the pain of existence.

Nice words from @Lou Barlow on brother Jeff (Sprinkled throughout the episode). First became a Lou fan in high school back around 1997. Cool to hear him praise Jeff all these years later.

The EVEN MORE Freewheelin’ Jeffrey Lewis (Album Review) It’s time Jeffrey Lewis was recognised as one of the best lyricists of his generation, The Even More Freewheelin’ should do more than cement that status. All things being fair, it should go down as on...

Sweet to read reviews by writers who really "get it" Some good pull quotes: "There hasn’t been anyone else quite like Jeffrey Lewis for a long while. It’s time he was recognised as one of the best lyricists of his generation, " @klofmag.bsky.social

“The Franchise” Gives Hollywood the “Veep” Treatment Satirizing the superhero-blockbuster business, HBO’s new comedy finds mostly easy targets, but eventually something more.

Just finished this show. Highly recommend it. Has some slow parts but builds to a great end. From creators of VEEP. Also for fans of The Playet

I haven't started season 2. You think it's worth it?

What season are you on? And what do you think?

It Was a Work of Staggering Genius—and a Sensation. Then It Went Away. What Happened? Dave Eggers’ debut made us all lose our minds. Now we’ve mostly forgotten it. Maybe we shouldn’t have.

Ì enjoyed reading this. One detail they left out perhaps is the influence of Chris Ware and his Acme Novelty/Jimmy Corrigan books on Eggers' book. Though I have not Googled it to find out if Eggers ever talks about this.

Anti-Trump crowd descends on Portland City Hall in ‘Not my Presidents Day’ protest It drew over 1,000 peaceful demonstrators to downtown Portland, in one of the city’s largest protests to date of the second Trump era.

Any time an article describes police as "scrambling" to respond to the size of an antifascist protest, you're doing something right.

Also, it means a ton of people just went to their first protest!

Time to keep the momentum going! Talk about this with coworkers tomorrow! Normalize resistance!
