I play music that is old and that is new. Some of it is digital while some is analog. It is from many different countries; sometimes it is loud and at other times it is quiet.

Death in Midsummer, a short story by Yukio Mishima www.sfponline.org...

I attended a funeral yesterday, which maybe is why this line jumped out: "Such incidents of course go far beyond the dictates of custom, and yet at no time are people more bound to follow custom."

I recently added Oshoshiki to my Plex library.

And then in a weird twist of fate, my friend Tomomi sent me a letter from Japan telling me her father passed away, and that she won't be able to send birthday or new years cards for a year of mourning.

What's proper protocol? Should I send a note of condolences?

I read a Mishima book back in college, but had trouble finishing it. I don't even remember which one it was
Avatar 12:14pm
Mayuko:

@Dave B Been wondering if you could add some Tora-san there in addition to Ososhiki. THAT is the real gem of Japanese art!!!
I'm not the best person to ask about social protocols but I think a note of condolences is what you're supposed to do... Mochu-mimai or something it's called...

As Mishima writes, "A death is always a problem in administration" indeed!

The title of the story kind of tips it, so I saved a bunch of time by just reading the title.

@fred He can be pretty ridiculous, probably that's why you didn't finish.

Not skipping a Mishima. Reading now, while listening, music and words make sense together.

@Mayuko—Heh, the timestamp was when I finished! I just copied that line in case I spotted more than one to comment about here. Fiction I usually force myself to go slowly b/c I proofread and edit so little of it!

Hi fleep! He's good at titling his stories... I've forgotten most of what he wrote but I remember the titles, haha.

@P-90 I'm glad! That was how I was listening to this record over and over this past week because it reminded me of this short story.

Good afternoon, Mayuko and the Vertigo Village. My ice cream didn't fare well in the Garbecue heat. If I served it at 9AM, it wouldn't have been all melted. I guess I need to bring more ice or a freezer along next time.

@Fred@12:31, I thought the Garbecue was a blast this year partly because a random super-enthusiastic WFMU fan who had never been there before showed up and raved energetically to Rob W. about how good his show is. He looked totally startled (Transpacific Sound Paradise doesn't get much love sometimes). She and some other people got me talking so that's a little unusual.

I have no idea about what's popular or selling well so am wondering are movie soundtrack albums even a thing anymore, besides Disney kid stuff? Or is that something left back in the 70s 80s?
Avatar 1:48pm
Mayuko:

@Rickwaukee As long as Morricone Island continues on WFMU, movie soundtrack IS a thing!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:49pm
fred:

@Mayuko: Yeah, they'd fly to the top, slide down and take flight just before reaching the bottom. There didn't seen to be any point in this, that's why I call it playing. Maybe they saw kids doing it and thought they'd try it
