I have my great great great grandfathers diary in my possession - he drew this in 1845. There were no photos so he drew what he saw.
I am sharing Henry T Whinfield’s art for the first time ever to the world.
This is a world debut.

This is looting
Y'all I just caught the Kennedy Center claiming it isn't closing while telling vendors it's closing and now they're selling all of their Steinway pianos

You can hear the voice in Schmitt's head telling him to "go on offense" at 3:15. So confident in his self-own.
🤡 Schmitt beclowns himself 🤡
Schmitt concocted an elaborate conspiracy theory that Smith traveled to Atl for a Hawks game and to collude with Fani Willis, & flashed his "evidence" before accusing Smith of perjury. There's just one problem -- his facts were totally wrong.
Here's the whole sequence:

Far as modern country and youth baseball, it turns out one kid on the team selected an AI-generated “outlaw country” song as his walk-up jam. And boy is it not good. Link upon request only.

The Langley song is popular where I live, so I've heard it around -- Target, youth baseball and such. It makes me think of the way "Seven Year Ache" echoes Fleetwood Mac.
Also, it's a good day to revisit Robbie Fulks' essay on Shania Twain. I've come back to it often. talkhouse.com/the-spectacl...

Jackie Jackson died two days ago. His death did not get the fanfare that the big celebrities get but I assure you he was no less than any of them: a titan astride the earth. In this thread, a few of the songs he played bass on. You know these songs. You know their bass parts.

My interview for my current job, in 2014, was nine and a half hours long. I brought a thermos.
I’m sorry, but if you bring an iced coffee - or any damn beverage at all - to a job interview, you’re disqualified. It’s not hard, people.

Tonight is giving us our first break from the late summer heat down this way. I stepped outside for a moment, and look who was hanging out on the backyard power line. Hoot.

My Instagram feed showed me the president of Nauru announcing that the name of the country is now Naoero. I guess Instagram gets me, for better and for worse.

On John Coltrane’s “Alabama” by Ismail Muhammad
June 17, 2020 – The sonic landscape that John Coltrane conjures on “Alabama” suggests something about the temporality in which black grief lives.

Today is Coltrane's centennial. So I'm re-upping this piece I wrote on his first biographer in 2014. Piece won an ASCAP Deems Taylor-Virgil Thomson Prize. One of my favorite projects.

Here's a nice transcription of the opening section of Coltrane's "Psalm" (part IV of 'A Love Supreme'), with the words he was reciting through his horn.

Its extreme Frippiness threatens to make Hall a role player on his own first solo album, but once the odd juxtapositions’ shock value wears off, you’ve still got a singer and a sound that work together. Side One arrives in stages; the flip starts even better. B1 here: youtu.be/kH18-9vAvuQ?...

Getting an early start on #CDFriday in my home office. It’s a wonderful set of covers, and it was my first exposure to Bobby Charles. (Hi Andy @vetiverse.bsky.social, if you’re out there.)

Digging J.J. Cale lately. Looking at the back cover of ‘Really,’ and these dates and sessions are sending me. Why was he cutting tracks at four studios in two states within a week’s time?
