Yesterday I turned 50, and I decided to put together a playlist that included one favorite song from every year that I've been alive. It ended up being a wild playlist. But listening to it brought me immense joy...This is what is on the playlist

or maybe being a northbound train

Need something for a student. Quick: links to essays on what it feels like to listen to, or love, a musician? Not criticism -- the personal experience of loving a song or an album or a musician's work?

Oh shit it’s Port Chester Beautiful Jam day here. Happy 55th birthday to a really singular piece of Grateful Dead music.

Thirty-five years. What more can I say?

The thing about the _Tremolo_ EP (and the preceding _Glider_ EP) is that both are their own distinct works, they're not just the singles from _Loveless_ in advance. You can't understand MBV without understanding them in turn.

Plus, a fave story... (1/x)

Everyone likes fun

abstractions also liberate

A book that keeps becoming more and more relevant each day!

Intense!

"Plato's Closet" is such a funny store name. Amazing choice

Q: How do I tell the difference between my ordinary mind of thoughts and feelings and the ground?

KTDR: There is no ground.

Without grasping at what has never existed,
rest freely in the spontaneous unfolding of whatever arises.

Bob Dylan writing about Bob Weir in The Philosophy of Modern Song

An image of Miles Davis next to the Ottoman Army and it reads "Could the Ottoman Army have Stopped Fusion Era Miles Davis?" Its from a YouTube channel called DocuDubery meme memes

You can wash your arm in a pool of mud
You can chop a tree, prevent a flood
You can speak with a turtle just by flippin' him around

Cannot find the source, but I remember a story about a Sufi who tells God he will reveal to all that all are saved, regardless of what they do, because God's mercy is endless, so all will eventually leave sin. God is concerned and threatens to show the Sufi's drunkenness (trance intoxication) to all
