A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

Hey Trouble and fellow troublemakers.
Always hits the spot to land here.
Had been catching up on some clips of sports radio (which is generally so toxic) for what amounts to for a local football fan as one of those incredibly anticipated weeks. It’s Jets/Giants this weekend and it’s completely taken me over.
So this break from all that (which really amounts to an addiction) is so welcomed as always, but particularly now.
Need to commune with you radicals!
Have not been able to check in lately. Last week was in FLA visiting my folks, and drove a car they gifted us back with my kid. First day there was a local library sale in a gym. So I’ve got a box and a half of books and some cd’s (which didn’t make my partner happy) still in the back of the car.
Beautiful day here. Up on the roof with the usual, and about to hang some laundry.
Solidarity, folks!

When we were in Tuscany around 2000, our friends whom we were staying with took us to a Casa de Popolo -- a leftover from the communist partisans of that region after WWII who were able to actually get some things done between Mussolini's fall and the re-entrenching of capital. Still around -- a place for these little farming communities to come together on the weekends for fellowship and VERY cheap excellent food provided by volunteer labor. Great time.

Wonder if that was the one organized by the great local radical artist Dread Scott www.dreadscott.net
Heard him speak once. His intelligence, grasp of radical history and commitment to using art to dramatize moments were so impressive and powerful.
Went to an exhibition about a decade ago at a Bklyn art house in DUMBO where he had a studio in the basement. It was there that he told us the story of the New Orleans slave revolt, and that he was in the process of organizing a reenactment. Almost joined!

I was looking for a book for a student yesterday at home. I realized that things are out of hand: heaps and stacks. The student searched my office and neither of us could find the book. I have compulsion to give a home to abandoned books which is a problem at a college as people leave them in the hall when retiring. My plan is to die reading and listening to music.

Our family had to unload thousands upon thousands of my mothers book collection. It was challenging to see & let it all go to dealers, etc. Yet it had to be that way for functionality sake. None of us kids’ homes could accommodate it all.

I've had to switch to digital, my hands suck, but before that, I used www.librarything.com to catalogue my books. I numbered the bookcases, and shelves, and named rooms, which mostly worked. Seems like the Venn diagram of Music/Books/Dying Plan is pretty darn full in this accu ;)

The good people at Bandcamp should set up a used book clearinghouse division.

It can be arranged. You just have to be level headed about the inevitable.

Plan now, and your trip to the other side can be smooth and relatively painless.

There used to be paperbackswap.com, but I had a feeling it was going to sink into scamminess (viz., the enshittification of the internet). Not sure if it's still a thing.

A couple of years ago, the nonprofit that runs the shelter in our neighborhood was having a book drive and hoping to take in 10,000 books (one for each person it serves per year). So we did a purge and cleaned a ton of books out of our storage space and carted 700 or so books over to the shelter as a donation. Later I checked their website, and there was a whole press release about HBO donating 1,000 books. HBO makes billions! K8 and I just about matched that on our own!

not to be a naysayer, but this is industrial era protest, in our post industry/ corporate metasticization where does this kind of protest get us, is this an exercise in nostalgia

Thank you so much Trouble & Josh, this was a fascinating listen, I appreciate it. Also thank you to the people who recommended Tove Joansson "The Summer Book' and Bonnie Garmus "Lessons In Chemistry" both were fantastic. Thanks for the company Troubled friends.

I wouldn't recommend running to avoid capture unless you possess the "Home" advantage

I have no advantage, therefore I'll watch it on TV.
