wow rip Neil Sedaka, whom i mainly know for the weirdest hit of 1959, "One Way Ticket" - it is him playing a word game that only 1959 audiences would realize is a word game, is about trains, and has weird production and vocals that keep coming into my head unbidden https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fzzzuX1ToYg

new job & i must finally learn to drive the hated Automobile, after >30 years of relying on public transit & friends. its sad… but today i started a car for the 1st time & the radio was playing a song saying "here comes carrie!" which was nice. maybe i can forgive myself & try to find what fun i can

okay that's it for my increasingly-rare return to "posting" my 'opinions' on «social media»; see you 「later」
i've got a good feeling about the upcoming TMBG album.. i like the picture, i like the big track count, the first single has both guys singing (and it's a satisfyingly bizarre concept and has good Linnell chord changes).. i'll probably like it regardless but maybe it'll be a actually rly good album!

i was expecting some homosexual subtext in “War and Peace” by Leo Tolstoy, because that’s just what happens in classic literature, but i'm halfway thru and was really not expecting it to have multiple background transgender people and a t4t romance???

(spoilers for book 5:chapter 13, & 7:4, & 7:11)

Japanese-American Day of Remembrance is a day to remember our grandparents but also a reminder to destroy ICE and free all prisoners and open all borders. if the state can give rights to some people and not others (and it has and it does) then it is the enemy of mankind
that's it; there's nothing new from me for this "'bandcamp friday' day", but you can and should always give money to other musicians and other people. thx

carrie's self-promotion post:

there's still time to be the 3rd person to solve, or the 13th or so person to listen to and enjoy, what is universally lauded as the most delectable musical album of the last several months (if not years): that beloved crossword album known only as “Puzzles of 2025”.

Puzzles of 2025, by carrie z + hedra rowan

this more straight-ahead post-bop album from JJW is also incredible imo... nice sound from her group, Eddie Henderson in particular - JJW has a real good sense of registers - sometimes she plays real fast - out of nowhere she does a spoken word piece about christ's sexual energy - etc
