Thanks @top10nathan.bsky.social for the chance to talk Waits!

The closest Waits ever came to a pop song and it is amazing and tender and I love it. This is my favorite version with just vocals, guitar, and upright bass.

Badgers still alive (I shout down 10 in the first half)!

Ok, so again the defense saves the day and the offense is getting it back in better field position than they lost it. Can we just be done with snap errors, please?!

Ok, Badgers, the last few weeks have given me a spark of hope that you can win the Ax. Just keep moving the ball and maybe something good will happen. #OnWisconsin

The death of browsing is part of the reason art is the way it is now. Our opinions are largely fed to us by algorithms. Spending a spare 15 minutes wandering around a bookstore or comic shop or video rental place was how you found stuff you wouldn't ordinarily pick up and thereby expanded your taste
Bookselling is like the most "people go to the store and buy what looks cool to them without a particular agenda" type business left, and your purchases have a huge influence on what is ordered, what is displayed, and what is recommended.

Just gets me every single time:

🎵 Said, "Jesus Christ, this goddamn rain!"
Will someone put me on a train?
I'll never kiss your lips again
Or break your heart

As I say goodbye, I'll say goodbye
Say goodbye to Ruby's arms🎵

Took kids to my parents for Thanksgiving, so couldn’t freeze in line at my local record store this morning. Instead, took kids to Tulsa to play at Discovery Lab, then hit a store up mid-afternoon. Still got 4 records I was hoping for: Curtis Mayfield, Bad Brains, Flaming Lips, Eric Burdon & War!

The first Waits song I heard. Immediately hooked. And with this recent performance, it’s clear he’s still got it.

Having seen this, I’ve got to say, the KPop Demon Hunter fans need to re-discover Final Fantasy X-2, where you play a girl band who changes fighting classes by changing dresses and has no less than two concerts on the way to saving the world from a giant weapon.
Okay, the crowd going nuts like someone just scored a touchdown at the Super Bowl all *through* the KDH performance is a hell of a thing to see hear/see:
