I have one more list-based experiment to push before I start with the essays next Monday. It's called The Assembler! You get to shuffle your picks one at a time from set categories like "popular" or "uncomfortable challenge". You're guaranteed a wide range!
Here's what I have for this week's new music! You can find the links at www.endaural.com/anticipation...

This list I made is kind of a cheat, so to make it up to you, I'm going to be keeping a list of lists!! Click into this thread to see a bunch of other good music lists from people, I'll keep adding more thru the years end
Lists of the year's best music are fun, but they're too safe! My list shows you 10 random picks from a pool of 605 (with streaming links). I think they're all good, but you probably won't see the best ones. Is that still worth your time? Can you afford to take the chance without the best assurances?

It feels unusual that there's still so much vital and exciting new music released this week, but it's true! You can check the links at www.endaural.com/anticipation... for proof

Sorry to be a buzzkill but Spotify's thinking about "listener age" is totally faulty. I keep track of my average year per day (sum of release date / number of releases listened) and I had 185 days where it was more than 2020. That'd put my listening age at a low number!

I'm seeing a lot of wonderful 10 year photo comparisons on the timeline today! I don't really have photos of myself so here's nearly 10 years of listening data, you can see me breakdown in 2020 via lost ability to focus, restored this year when I started therapy, + a more detailed look at this year

I've got my radio listings page to be functional!! Maybe it's not pretty, but it should be functional (please let me know if it gives you bad links or info). It only has KEXP, WFMU, and some Hollow Earth Radio for now, please let me know about the other good radio shows and I'll put them in

I just saw this story on it www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/1...
![VATICAN CITY — A group of 48 transgender women attended a major Vatican event on Sunday with Pope Leo XIV, continuing a tradition that began under his predecessor of inviting members of the LGBTQ+ community to the church’s annual “lunch for the poor.”
Get concise answers to your questions. Try Ask The Post AI.
Unlike in past years, however, no trans women were seated at the pope’s main table.
The fact that they were present at all, the women said, suggested a willingness to keep open a door unlocked by Pope Francis, the late pontiff who revolutionized relations between LGBTQ+ Catholics and the world’s largest Christian faith.
“That he’d mingle, that he [sat] close to [us], that’s a good sign, right?” said Alessia Nobile, a trans woman and Italian author who attended the lunch. She said she managed to hand Leo a letter on behalf of the “trans community,” to which he simply “smiled.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:5zsxugwncy4bbeqe2krjjiac/bafkreibfejku46fhaw4c27wlx3muxsqawovnnoizdsvv7dwmvlizn27cau@jpeg)
