I want my guitar but it's upstairs.
So give a smile and a cringe to the lunatic fringe
I'm a little tired of sayin' so
See the spin and the twirl of a wide-eyed girl
Still digging for an honest soul
I feel like I could already go for a re-watch of Scavengers Reign
It's evolution
Back when the emotional disruption in my life was only personal and mostly of my own making, it was Innocence Mission, Denison Witmer, Over the Rhine, and a little Sufjan who got me through with my nerves intact.
Now it looks like it's going to be above + Andy Shauf and Will Varley who will promote internal regulation during The Horrors.

"Curation used to be part of our media consumption process. We would hop from website to website looking for a laugh. We used to click on hyperlinks for Christ's sake. Now, all we must do is sit at the trough and let daddy Zuck feed us."
"It’s curious that most authoritarian regimes have historically mistrusted and silenced artists. Authoritarians tend to want to establish art that is vetted, branded and sanctioned by the state. Art, writing and music are dangerous to those looking to consolidate power. Music invites us to access and nourish a thriving world within that is rich, layered and beyond the control of the powerful."
