Listening/reading log #13 (October 2020)
I’m writing this a few days before possible absolute freakout time here in the States. We’ll probably be okay though. And if we aren’t, then we aren’t. Let’s…
Listening/reading log #24 (October 2021)
Late again. I’ve been going through shit as usual, but that’s no excuse. All the more reason for me to post. First up: music. Juice (Ryo Kawasaki, 1976)…

Listening/reading log #14 (November 2020)

Listening/reading log #15 (December 2020)
