I do not believe in hocus pocus.
Music is my fuel.
In search of wisdom.

COME VISIT by Courtney Mary Andrews:
"I am an ambassador of love.
These towns with their similar shapes,
streets filling and emptying by early morning.
Have you heard, kind stranger?
Love is a beautiful place,
even with its messy alleys
and poor city planning.
Come get lost.
Do not let possible endings
keep you from it.
Visit it sometime
when you are most afraid of yourself."
Saw her live last night in #Hamburg. ppl of #Goteborg #Stockholm #Oslo #Malmo #Copenhagen GO!

February 28, 2026
Waking up, glancing through the news, and notice that the 7,249th historically significant event of 2026 just happened.
We’re becoming so numb to living through major moments that the only thing that comes to mind is that famous Kafka diary entry, on August 2, 1914: 'Germany has declared war on Russia. Went swimming in the afternoon.'
In a mood, I'm in a mood, you done caught me in a mood, we have a mood. There is mood.
Deep Purple, "Child In Time", live, 1970.

Fuck all y'all.
Some great music from the 80s, no.9
Talking Heads. Road to Nowhere
This late Talking Heads classic seems like an apposite choice for 2026. Starting & finishing with almost gospel a-cappella sections, it shifts into a sort of military shuffle with continuing chanted vocals and a percussive drive. The song offers a relentless but almost mesmeric groove & sort of gets into your head. You'll be singing the chorus for the rest of the day... sorry about that.
Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen replies to Donald Trump's post claiming to be sending a hospital ship to Greenland:
"I am happy to live in a country where there is free and equal access to healthcare for everyone. Where it is not insurance and wealth that determine whether you get proper treatment.
The same approach is followed in Greenland.
Happy Sunday to all of you."

No lambs yet but she does look ready to pop soon. The slimmer sheep is her companion so she doesn’t get lonely. Lucky companion gets treats too. In fact, she was most eager!
"Dryden officials believe they are the first town in the state to ban data centers. The decision, which also bans cryptocurrency mines, comes after a local 18-month land-use moratorium put a halt to these kinds of projects. Dryden Deputy Supervisor Dan Lamb said that the decision to pass the ban stemmed from local concerns regarding data centers energy draw."

In the before picture, the mug has been painted with terra sig (from Louisiana, Virginia and Ontario) and is unglazed. This is one of the pieces I decorated at the dining room table when it was too cold to be in my studio. #BeforeAndAfter #ceramics #pottery #WildClay
