A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

Passaic River Blues:

If we lived in a sane society, and a President's obvious and admitted mismanagement led to mass death and mass unemployment, that alone would torpedo any shot at reelection. Put to the side all the corruption, destabilization, norm-breaking, absence of a single redeeming human quality or trait, etc., Donnie Shitbag just wouldn't have a shot. But unfortunately we do live in a sick society, so Trouble's right. The only way to overcome every voter suppression tactic the GOP has and will continue to leverage, up to and including a redo of Bush v. Gore in a newly fortified conservative Supreme Court, is a turnout tidal wave.

@Brian...I'd rather FMU got the money. After what? 14 years of getting Trouble's CDs this time something snagged in Customs....FMU should say things sent over seas are GIFTS and a few bucks in value. shouldn't be seen as a business thing MHO.

I'm pretty sure I'm not going to test positive because I know who got me sick and she's negative, so it's probably just some random other sickness. But you know, for the sake of everyone else in your life you have to get tested just to be sure!!

i was really sick in February (but no fever) -- then really REALLY sick in March (the fever kicked in, was 103.5 at its worst) -- but it turned out it was not COVID-19 (by the time testing came around, i did not have any symptoms -- but had anyibody testing done, and all that was negative)
a friend of mine was also knocked out with some equally severe, crazy non-COVID nightmare . . . long story short, do whatever you gotta do to take care of yourself!

I'm probably in the minority, but I really resent Fall. Winter is kind of like a politician or celebrity you hate and have to endure day-in day-out. But Fall? It's like that significant other that teases you with nice moments, but you know in the back of your mind that they're going to cheat on you, leave you, and take the puppy you and they rescued.

@kppk, re: our recent conversation about radio reception, you should definitely be able to get 91.1 clearly in southern Sunset Park esp. if you are west of 6th Ave., but only with a "real" radio or stereo. Junky cheapo alarm clock radios and stuff like that are only good for picking up Z100! (Or other terrible commercial stations.)

ideas are ideas until someone doesn't like them and then it all gets 'political'. the personal is political, and the only people who don't admit that are the people whose privilege has exempted them from having to consider that the rules are/were written by them, to protect them.
