imagine spotify trying to invent an AI Dan Bejar from scratch... ok it's like indie yacht rock... and he sings like a wasted shakespearean actor trapped in a musical... and his lyrics don't really make sense... and it's all so beautiful that people weep... have it on my desk by 5

Friend at a bar asked what I'm reading. A Fan's Notes by Exley, I told her. She punched me harder than I've probably ever been punched in the shoulder. She said she used to live in Watertown. She said everyone there hates Exley. Incredible book.

spoke w @daijoubu.bsky.social about machines, the future, and their great new collection of stories from @clashbooks.bsky.social www.full-stop.net/2024/12/03/i...

Fresh work up at the excellent @alwayscrashing.bsky.social — hope you’ll check it out, very happy with these www.alwayscrashing.com/current/2024...
