I’ve never actually met Morrissey, which is probably why I like him. He is undeniably a complex and divisive figure, someone who takes more than a little pleasure in pissing people off. As enjoyable as some may find this, it holds little interest for me, but for the fact that Morrissey is probably the best lyricist of his generation - certainly the strangest, funniest, most sophisticated, and most subtle. We had a few pleasant email exchanges last year in which Morrissey asked if I’d sing on a new song he had written. I would have been happy to do so, however, while the song he sent was quite lovely, it began with a lengthy and entirely irrelevant Greek bouzouki intro. It also seemed that he didn’t want me to actually sing on the song, but deliver, over the top of the bouzouki, an unnecessarily provocative and slightly silly anti-woke screed he had written. Although I suppose I agreed with the sentiment on some level, it just wasn’t my thing. I try to keep politics, cultural or otherwise, out of the music I am involved with. I find that it has a diminishing effect and is antithetical to whatever it is I am trying to achieve. So, Astrid, I politely declined. I said no.

Hi Jacob! I recommended Labatut's books a few months (year?) ago, and this video reminded me so much of another Chilean book.

"When Women Kill" by Alia Trabucco Zerán is an account of three Chilean female murderers and how their trials revealed more about the prosecutors than about the defendants.

yes! I saw it for the first time back when you were watching it, and it quickly became one of my favorite pieces of media ever, specially FWWM.

I'd love to keep hearing your takes on it!

the Fantastic Four cast get asked about their own personal fantastic four, which leads to some canned niceties from pascal, kirby and quinn, and an insanely he knows ball answer from ebon.

Today I learnt that 'vibe coding' was just copying and pasting AI written code, instead of contacting your inner conscience and code based on instincts.

Disappointed to say the least.

Arctic Eggs: Exploring Passion and Societal Pressure by Tomás Neumann-Aspee

For some reason, it seems that I hit the SEO jackpot with this short essay, cause I appear in the first or second page when you google #ArcticEggs. So I'm posting the essay here too!

Writers: repost a random piece that you're proud of.
