After my little posting snafu the last time around, I am double-checking that I actually publish my drafts lol.

The cold is making me and everyone else blue. A line from the Another Michael song “Big Pop” keeps running through my head: “I’m fine, but I know a lot of people who are feeling a bad way.”

I haven’t done much this week except workout and sew, so I guess I can’t complain. I’ve made it to season 3 of Buffy. As I type this I am experiencing the sort of period pain that makes me want to stab my mattress with a big knife…

Anyways!

Here’s a few things that I read during this slow week:

“He Was Tom Verlaine” by Patti Smith / The New Yorker

“The Promise of Pyer Moss” by Tahirah Hairston / The Cut

And what I’ve been listening to:

Like everyone else on TikTok, I can’t stop listening to NewJeans.

This song from the North Caroline band Sluice made me super excited for their upcoming album.

Perfect for walking around in the cold!

A beautiful new song from my sweet friend Susannah! Her new album, We Know the Sky is out 3/24 on Lame-O.

Apologies for the short note but I’m going to try to have a routine of publishing once a week. As always, thanks for reading : )
