Pretty Good Hat

📚 The Newcomer by Keigo Higashino. This is an intricate mystery, and while it makes me interested in the detective at its core it doesn’t really tell me much about him (beyond his brilliant detective-ing), and it reads sort of distant.

📚Finished reading Severance by Ling Ma this week. It was a fascinating and specifically observed story about isolation, routine and consumption. Also a mournful and very different take on zombies.

Looking up how to make yogurt in the instant pot, in one tab, poking around camera reviews in another one, and listening to Golden Hour, so it’s a pretty okay Saturday evening around here.

Finally decided to figure out how to replace mismatched live tracks in Apple Music. 😖 There has got to be a better way than modifying the metadata and re-importing the files to my library, then holding my breath to see if Apple Music properly handles it. But, there isn’t one.

Pretty sure David Frum just said in this NPR interview that we need to give racist nationalists what they want so that racist nationalism will stop tearing apart our civic institutions, but maybe I’ve just been hit in the head really hard.

I saw Darlingside and River Whyless at the MIM last night! Wooowwww! So great, moving, and fun. The closing acoustic encore with both bands was just a treasure. ❤️🎶

Lovely orange and pink sunrise on the horizon while hail comes down in buckets at my house is pretty classic lousy Smarch weather for Flagstaff.

I’m at a solid two feet of of snow at my house, and just learned that the forecast is for 18-24 more inches in the next day. 😵❄️
