ah, jeeze, this listener-supported streaming rock station doesn’t erase the rock music that came out between my junior year in high school when music “went to shit” and my junior year in college when I started listening to listener-support streaming stations and they weren’t playing “that new stuff”
The New York Trilogy was on the reading list for a Detective Fiction course I took in college (lovely course!) and, because it’s so great, I’m sure I don’t have that copy on my shelf anymore because I foisted it on someone with "you have to read this” after one of the re-readings I’d given it since then.
RIP Paul Auster.

gravely (@gravely@mastodon.social)Telling a friend about 4, 3, 2, 1 over dinner, I said it was romantic and lovely, if you didn't mind new yorkers in love with new york, ellis island through the 60s, the anti-war movement, and all that shit we've heard so much about, which I did not mind. Later, while my kid was eating pizza and getting sauce two inches up both cheeks, I asked him to fold it in half and the guy at the next table who'd overheard me laughed and said "I'm from New York and it's really like all of that, you know”Mastodon

one problem with giving your casual industry pals chat a name with all the series business labels* as a joke is that you end up posting your weekend plans all casual like to the actual serious business chat
