Do I really need to get credit for every random thing I read and find at all interesting by semi-publicly recording it here on this website?
Maybe, yeah.

I read this 33 and ⅓ entry on Unknown Pleasures and then re-listened to pretty much every track Joy Division ever recorded.

The first “links last week” still isn’t really happening today - I didn’t keep up with it other than the first day of the week, which happened to be the 4th of July.
I guess I could still post the links I did note at the first of the week, because a couple of them are really good, though a bit dependent on the “Independence Day” context. Find them after the jump.

Ugh. Fell into the “Writing the Great American Email” trap at work today. Several times.
Some people like hearing themselves talk, I guess I like reading myself write.

Tried Taqueria Los Lee for lunch today.
I’ve procrastinated actually trying this place for a year or two, so I’m lucky it still is open - the good, easy fast food taco place by my work closed down a couple of weeks ago, so I was finally driven to find a new option. I had gorditas with rice and beans and it was all very solid. I’ll be back for a burrito or tacos or something.
I like their happy little website, too:

This interview with Alok Vaid-Menon was by far the best thing I’ve read/listened to/otherwise taken in this week.
Listened casually while eating my lunch - I’m going to need to listen again more carefully and unpack this, and then explore their work.

I just corrected an error in my RSS template and site configuration, and now, after months of transmission failure, my notes on this site are propagating to micro.blog. Now that it is working I’m not sure how I actually feel about it.

I apparently live in a version of the internet where Derrida’s 1995 lecture-turned-book Archive Fever is trending.

I’m going forward by going back…
I let this site go dormant again, but that was not for lack of unpublished notes, pictures, ideas, etc. – I have physical and digital notebooks full of stuff.
Basically: I get busy, and I also get shy.
What to do about all that could’ve / would’ve stuff?

These are:
- two of my favorite albums
- two of my favorite albums to listen to on vinyl, that I own on vinyl1
- two of my favorite albums that sound like spring to me, though I can’t say why2
- two of my favorite albums that I am listening to on vinyl right now, and noting on my website on this day, for these reasons

Upgraded the primary domain for this site to its final form here at the end of the internet:
