oh interesting, i think it would feel much less lonely with two voices. also wanted to say nobody else on earth would go with "look long enough and see/where the referent wriggles free", huge grin on my face at that. linguistics mode engage

the way the dialogue switches in "your bandage" are only hinted at with change in vocal delivery is really cool, dont know if i've ever heard that done with a single vocalist. once again my fav section is the slower stretch in the middle lol. really enjoyed this record!

@franksantopadre.bsky.social the epigraph in the brand new thomas pynchon novel is a line gilbert used to quote on GGACP. heard it in his Bela voice when i saw it.

Everyone's justly praising his writing, of course, but my favourite thing Kaleb ever did was this take on Johnny Cash covering Hurt but in the Folsom Prison Blues era. Made me sad hearing it again but it's still hilarious. (the image is one of Kaleb's photographs)

you should start assigning them to objects factory records style. "my hair this morning is CD108"

pynchon writes about the dutch explorers that came to mauritius in the 17th century

listening to george jones again...imagine being born with that voice!

It's an indie game about a truck driver raising his daughter in rural China during the 90s. Gorgeous pixel art, cozy soundtrack and apparently it's 4-5 hours long. Also, extremely cheap!

@themountaingoats.bsky.social hey JD this is a long shot maybe but I would love to hear minnesota at the roundhouse tomorrow. looking forward to seeing the band again but i missed the show when you brought the sick electric version around here last UK tour. will be a killer show regardless i'm sure!
