  1. @NearerAndFarther Thanks for the great work of food production you are doing.
    We are doing same work like you,and we have also tomato nursery beds that we prepared in the previous evening with other seeds.
    Though we are in different regions,can we keep on sharing and exchanging knowledge and ideas?

    Rhubarb plants don't grow very big the first year, but my mature ones are each about four feet across in the early summer, I have three and that is enough to make several pies, a rhubarb upside down cake, and some sauce to put over vanilla ice cream, etc. It depends on how much you like rhubarb, and how much space you can spare in your garden. Don't pick much the first year, and don't pick it all!

  3. Posted a few thoughts on Shalom Auslander's *Feh: A Memoir* on my blog.

    One of the longer, more formal-ish pieces I've written so far getting the site up a few months ago. Still finding my writing groove in this space.

    "The Story and Stories of Feh, or: Stories of the Story of Feh"

  4. @NearerAndFarther Amy Kostine in the Center for Historic Preservation at #MTSU might be a good person to contact. More about her here:

  5. For no other reason than that it is here, here is an excerpt from his letter on May 14, 1921, to Wilbur Underwood:

    "Yes--- I keep on reading the *Dial*. Occasionally, also, the *Freeman*. The new New Orleans attempt called the *Double-Dealer* has some good poems in it this month by Padraic Colum. Has a copy of Carlos Williams' *Contact* strayed into Washington yet? They started printing it on the multigraph but now, I hear, have graduated to the printers,---and are also giving reproductions of paintings etc. Some really good things in it. Address G.P.O 89. N.Y.C. $.25 per copy."

  6. Only just noting that Crane's entire output is about just around 150 pages, including the unpublished stuff.

    By comparison, the "selected letters" in the Library of America Crane volume take up 550+ pages!

  7. Forgetfulness is like a song
    That, freed from beat and measure, wanders.
    Forgetfulness is like a bird whose wings are reconciled,
    Outspread and motionless,--
    A bird that coasts the wind unwearyingly.

    Forgetfulness is rain at night,
    Or an old house in a forest,-- or a child.
    Forgetfulness is white,-- white as a blasted tree,
    And it may stun the sybil into prophecy,
    Or bury the Gods.

    I can remember much forgetfulness.

    -- Hart Crane, "Forgetfulness" (1918)

  9. If I wrote recipes, I'd go out of my way to use the verb "pulverize" at least once.

  10. Fell asleep during the movie
    When i woke up, tubi has autoplayed The Golden Child.

    That's a trippy movie to wake up to...

  11. Janet's "I Get Lonely" is such a jam

    Saba and NoID repurposed it o their "Breakdown", off their album last year, and it's kind of wild no one did that before.

  17. Really nice overview of rapper Blu's career to date, with some insight into where he was at around the time of key records in his discography.

  18. Three things from our #MorningWalk, semi-illustrated edition:

    1) Rain overnight + super heavy fog early this morning means everything is covered one-part dew, one-part rain.

    2) Mulberries coming in on the mulberry trees. Dew (or rain?) cameo.

    3) Big spiderweb made visible by the dew-rain. Would likely have missed it without it.

  19. #MorningWalk

    Three things I noticed:
    * along a fence/treeline at our property's edge, where we don't stop as often, birds kept popping up -- on tree branches, amidst the bushy grass, on fence posts. One, some ground nesting bird I think, just watched as we walked by, some 6 inches away from our feet!

    * this the time for poison ivy. Its very pretty this time of year, shiny and emerald (to my color-impaired eyes). Sirens song.

    * Skulking cat off in the distant wooded area. It ran as soon as I noticed it. Too shady to note color, other than "dark"

  20. Tomorrow is the first #NewMusicFriday in a few weeks that really feels loaded.

    New albums from...

    Black Milk
    Loraine James
    Little Simz
    Broken Social Scene
    Az

    And that's just a first look.

    Black Milk will probably get first listen.

  25. New little chickens hung out with the big chickens for a bit today while I worked nearby.

    Mostly ok interactions. I can tell which of the older birds is going to be the pecker of the pecking order.

    We'll probably start doing this everyday this week. My spouse is handling most of the adjustment process, not sure what the timeline is for them sleeping together at night.

    I did not get as much work done as planned bc I kept stopping to make sure everyone was alive and well, lol.

  26. A discussion elsewhere just reminded me of this classic Common performance w/Macy Gray on Leno, and it just made me get super nostalgic for a very particular musical moment, and maybe a personal one, too.

    Common - Ghetto Heaven (TSOP Remix version w/Macy Gray)

    youtube.com/watch?v=RLBvx1bJ4fY

    I remember getting so excited by this and had the foresight to record that ish on VHS. I ran it back IMMEDIATELY, and again, and again.

  27. Just realized Bobby Watson, the main bass player of Rufus, has a Youtube channel talking through old stories and ish, practically teaching the tunes along the way.

    Here he is talking about the making of Sweet Thing. Could listen to him talk all day.

    Key points:
    * He didn't get writer's credit but he contributed several key parts

    * He played bass for Rufus but had a solid guitar background

    * Chaka would often track her vocals at night, not having been around when the band was tracking the tunes originally

    * Chaka wrote the words and vocal lines for Sweet Thing in "20 or 30 minutes" (!!! feel like I did hear that before, but still -- mindblowing!)

  28. Although I reading two hefty books right now, the end of the semester has me wanting to line up a whole list of books to binge once grades are submitted.

    With that in mind, Pulitzer prizes/finalists just announced. For Fiction, *Angel Down* (Daniel Kraus) wins, with Katie Kitamura's *Audition* and Torrey Peters's *Stag Dance* as finalists.

    Angel Down and Audition were both on my big "would like to read" list. Don't know that I've heard of Stag Dance? Not ringing a bell, anyway.
