Music Monday

Just another round of "Here's stuff Talvin likes in music, maybe you like it too."

How about a little Scatman John?

I love Rhiannon Giddens' work, not just music, but the history lessons she gives.

And off in a completely different direction:

And in yet ANOTHER direction (do I have a bit of a European bias in my tastes? Possibly.)

And last one for this week:

Hope you found at least one thing you like.

This is the Way.

I'm at the pediatrician office watching two 3-year olds attempt to break the language barrier.

you ever have situations that make you want to take people by the shoulders and go "you are not 15 any longer. this behavior is no longer quirky and cute. it is exhausting for you and everyone else to act like a teenager you haven't been in a decade or longer. knock it the fuck off"

There are two cats in this picture. (And yes, it's already covered in cat hair.)

I Prepare For Battle

They outnumber me two to one, and they already occupy the ground I must contest for.

They are faster and more maneuverable, and their weapons are sharp and quick to strike.

I must cover the entire battlefield, but they will tunnel underneath and undermine it. Everything I do, they will seek to counter.

Even after I finally prevail through sheer stubbornness and refusal to concede, they will occupy the ground once again.

Yes.

I have two cats, and I am about to make the bed.

Pray for me.

Genuinely and unironically my philosophy abt music has expanded to “stop writing off music because it’s from a specific genre” and I think that could be applied to most mediums actually
