one big handshake

Oct 5, 2025 7:00 AM – 9:00 AM

Music

With wishbone

folk textures! often crafted from a deep fascination with acoustic instruments and styles, and their canoodling with electricity. what even is it? is it alive? and who cares? love of collage-y and crooked music. respect for ever warping tradition. cheers

crazy week

plant of the day: bushy aster (Symphyotrichum dumosum)

the line "head between my cypress knees" refers to bald cypress (taxodium distichum) "knees". here's a picture of them. Bald Cypress | Glen Arboretum

bald cypress are some of the largest trees on the east coast! they grow in florida and prefer swampy locations... the best theory for why they develop the knees is to areate their roots when they're covered with water.

One time I was coming back late from seeing live music, and there was a momma skunk and at least one baby, sniffing around the front door of my ground level apartment entrance
Rob from Maryland 🦀 8:05:19 AM
Like at 2 in the morning. And I had to p**. Fortunately they wandered off pretty quickly, and I went inside forthwith
