When I’m in a specific cafe in Philadelphia I try to notice the shoes I see. A lot of professionals and tourists come through so I see a variety of footwear. Nothing weird going on, just fashion.

as a society, we should move away from sensible shoes, the white sneakers etc and embrace ugly shoes more - I have never felt more alive

Magnolia Electric Co. - Jason Molina & Songs: Ohia
This is one of my favorite albums of all time. It was produced by Steve Albini (R.I.P) and was at the height of Jason Molina's career. A few songs legitimately floor me every time I hear them. Farewell Transmission is at the very top of that list. Everything about it hits me viscerally, from the gorgeous lyrics ("Mama here comes midnight with the dead moon in its jaws"), to that goddamn perfect ending cutting out at just the right moment. "Listen!"
The rest of the album carries on from there, sprawling farther and farther with each song after the opener, and god if Hold On Magnolia isn't a hell of a bookend. The sheer pathos and emotion of this album is incredible. But fuck me if Farewell Transmission isn't just one of the greatest songs of all time.
Anywho, definitely give it a listen!

this interlude feels like crying in the dark at 3am but in the most beautiful way. Gambino really said “here’s 50 seconds of raw emotion” and dipped. haunting, soft, and weirdly comforting.
