There’s an old man who lives in my neighborhood and for many years I’ve seen him jogging past my house. In the warmer months, with my windows open, I can hear his distinctive, somewhat irregular, shuffling gait as he labors by. As the years have passed, I’ve seen him growing weaker, and just yesterday he came by, more slowly than ever, at more of a walk than a trot. It looked…downright painful. I’m sure nobody makes him run—in fact, I imagine his loved ones urging him to give it up. Yet on he goes, his #determination admirable and inspiring. And there are oh so many like him, who scoff at the difficulties and go on, and on, and on. I know some of you who are like that, each in your own way. Don’t ever lose heart—you are capable of so much.

I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er hills and ponds,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden stocks and bonds

2 words that should never go together: carpeted ceilings.

zillow.com/homedetails/505-Rid

A retro looking white kitchen with brown detailing, and a ceiling that is covered with mustard covered shag carpet.An open living room space with 2 types of carpet on the floor, cut into a curve pattern, and most of the ceiling is covered in mustard coloured shag carpet. The other part of the ceiling seems to be some kind of linoleum tiling that is falling apart. The walls are the same brownish colour.A hallway with the ceiling covered in mustard coloured shag carpet with panels on the walls and a bookshelf at the end of the hallway

Wes Montgomery / Wynton Kelly Trio - Smokin' in Seattle: Live at the Penthouse

This came out on CD some time ago, and got a limited vinyl pressing recently in a great gatefold with a booklet full of essays and pictures.

Wes (guitar) and Wynton (piano) are joined by Ron McClure (bass) and Jimmy Cobb (drums).

"Live at the Penthouse” was a radio broadcast in Seattle, and this is taken from those tapes.

The band, needless to say, cooks. Or smokes.

Wes Montgomery / Wynton Kelly Trio - Smokin' in Seattle: Live at the Penthouse LP over.

Off-white background, artists and title at the top in large font, with the Penthouse club mascot leaning up against the artist names.

A black and white shot of Wes (left) and Wynton (right) is below, taking up the bottom half.

The black LP plays on a vintage, restored Bang & Olufsen Beogram 4000 linear-tracking turntable to the right.

Once again, after all, way later. Shifting down a few gears. Trying, and failing, to rejoin the multiple threads opened, left unfinished today. Maybe it's not of that much relevance. Watching moon on her way, a few stars on the background of a cold dark void. Too tired to notice existing constellations, too overstimulated to come up with new improvised ones. Always just a step from sleep. Have a calm night wherever you are.

Allow me to address the elephant in the room: The decades-long outsourcing of domestic manufacturing to China was not an insidious Chinese conspiracy for dominance but the greedy strategy of the American ruling class to explode its profit margins by exploiting global inequality.

Quan diuen allò de "un poble que oblida la seva història està condemnat a repetir-la", mai vaig pensar que la víctima podria repetir la història però com a botxí

Fopses!
This time it was mostly the vixen, relieving an itchy spot with the nearby flora. I think I also saw the other one (male, I believe), but just in passing (last image).
Really interesting to start seeing their ways under fences, which is one of the few places they make any noises.

A photo of a red fox (vixen) standing in front of a hedge, backside leaning againts the hedge, after rubbing her back against it to scratch an it, currently looking intently somewhere left of the frame, with ears perked in attention. The focus is very much on her face, with this half angle showing a lot of features.A photo of the same vixen, currently rubbing her back relaxedly against the same hedge, showing a face that, yeah, this is the spot, on hind leg stretched out to press against the hedge as well.A photo of the same vixen again, standing on a stone path leading to the image left, while she is facing away from the camera and attentively looking towards the image right.A photo of likely another fox (male), walking away from the camera, also on a path winding to image left, though the fox is headed right (into the underbrush).

Isn’t it amazing how the brain can translate this image into dopamine? The power these little creatures have.

Black cat asleep in a croissant shape. Her head is tilted upside down, her paws are curled inward. She is very cute.
