Team lead for a small, creative tech-writing experiment.

Music fan. You can see stuff I like or am curious about at https://bandcamp.com/saucer (even though I now use Qobuz or Apple Music most of the time because their streaming players sound much better and they’re not anti worker, as far as I know)

Pretty serious about meditation and pretty crap at it.

i haven't really traveled any distance, to speak of, only for a concert, but i once arranged to stay over a few days in Toronto (traveling from Northern California) on a work trip so I could see The Hidden Cameras at (edit) The Opera House, playing with Gentleman Reg, December 2009. To the extent that counts, it was 4,295 km

long wondered about the common factors across domains that motivates me to label things as good v bad

Just realized one:

Boring -> Bad

Pertains for example to otherwise good songs with boring lyrics, and to politicians/analysts/pundits whose words evince boring thinking

So boring is my new favorite lens

great work all picking such a fruitful theme, and thanks for the great work by mixmaster @JimMcCauley #listeningClub

Rrrright then. Now we all know where you thought you were going to, or not as the case may be, that was the #DoYouKnowWhereYoureGoingToVortex, many thanks to everyone who chipped in a tune or two, and double plus thanks to @JimMcCauley for the splendid assemblage.
We're back next Sunday same time, same place, same hashtag with @EmmaPrice in the chair. Till then, good to see everyone, thanks for stopping by, hoping for a mighty fine week for y'all.
