My favorite band of all time is The National. In 2022 I preordered a book about the making of their album Boxer and this felt bookmark came for free with it! This all happened at a time where i needed that album and band like never before.
The bookmark is so soft and feels so nice in my hands. It’s been with me all over the world and helps me keep track of the *primary* book I’m reading, as I’m somewhat of a slow and scatterbrained reader.

PI.BKCLB just started The Dawn of Everything yesterday and I felt like this old Cav Empt sticker I had in my collection was a good pairing

has made putting down + picking up books much easier, i don’t like to annotate on pages so the little “favorite parts” section on the back is great for notes, very motivating to see how much you read per day and try and beat that / finish the book as quickly as possible by reading more per day, has been a huge value add to the experience of reading as i’ve been trying to prioritize it more this year :)

Living alone for the first time, in and out of depressive episodes, doomscrolling through the news and feeling crushed by powerlessness — this album feels like a hug, a warm blanket, someone to talk to.

I’ve been listening to a lot of Slaughter Beach, Dog recently. They are a great band, if you haven’t heard of them. They do a lot of spoken word songs which I find incredibly interesting and cool and I’m kind of obsessed with. I’m impressed by the bravery of essentially setting a poem to music. It feels incredibly vulnerable — sometimes I don’t know if I’m cringing or if what I’m listening to is just breaking down some sort of wall between listener and artist that makes me a bit uncomfortable. I’m not even sure if what I’m listening to is “good”. It’s noteveryone’s cup of tea, for sure, but it certainly is mine :)
I’m wondering if any of you guys feel this way about something?
