When the pretending stops
You learn you're nothing at all
Except the white heat #explosion
Of a lifetime of convenient lies

Real truth, once exposed
Starts as dull pain deep
Inside the guts and colon
Spiking straight to the brain

Unquenchable
Horror
Fear
And sadness

I'm reading a book about Billie Holiday. July 4 is the perfect day to watch her sing Strange Fruit, the powerful and painful musical portrayal of lynchings that the government punished her for singing. But Billie never stopped.

Two episodes into The Bear season 3, I'd say it is off to an uneven start. But I did enjoy hearing Eddie Vedder's version of the English Beat's Save It For Later. I was unaware of his version.

From the #vss365 jukebox for #excogitate, we'll let Aretha Franklin take us to church with her classic Think from 1968. When she sings "FREEDOM!" you can feel it.

Some say, "Love, it is a river
That drowns the tender reed"
Some say, "Love, it is a razor
That leaves your soul to bleed"

That it is why, my dearest angel
Cuz I love you every bit
You must always keep nearby
A ready First Aid Kit

~Aftermath~

The storm is the fury
After the storm is the sadness
For everything lost

But I survive in the aftermath
Walking this shore
From eggshell to eggshell

Cautiously moving forward
Away from one horizon
And toward another

From the #vss365 jukebox for #duet, Andrew Bird & Fiona Apple perform Left Handed Kisses. I love Fiona's intensity, hands on hips, grabbing the mic, all her emotion in the words. It's a confrontation, a battle. She's in another place…then the spell lifts

From the #vss365 jukebox, this is #Serrated Edge by The Dead Milkmen from their classic 1985 album Big Lizard in My Back Yard. The multiple references to Charles Nelson Reilly may not have aged well. 😅 But I still love the bass-forward punk sound.

From the #vss365 jukebox for #Draconian, this is the 44-minute brutality of Swans' Beggar Lover (Three) from last year's album The Beggar. In concert they stretched a 10-minute song to punishing 75-minute noise bath. Enjoy if you can.

As an originalist, I believe the second amendment of the U.S. Constitution protects from infringement only the right to bear arms that existed in 1787. Like a musket. The amendment is based on the need for a well-regulated militia, so there should be many regulations too.

Today's contestant in the "just-add-hot-water sweepstakes" is this spicy beef ramen by Mike's Mighty Good. No summer armpit flavor today. This was pretty good. Not super beefy but the broth was flavorful and had a bit of heat. Just a bit of aftertaste. Overall very acceptable!

From the #vss365 jukebox for #besotted, this is Infatuation by Haircut 100 from their second and final album Paint and Paint in 1984. Lead singer Nick Heyward had left the band and the album flopped. But this is a great song with an amazing bass line.

I decided to buy a bunch of just-add-hot-water meals I could have for lunch at work. This was the first I tried. It is Creamy "Chicken" ramen, all plant based. But it tastes like summer armpits. Are armpits vegan? Anyway, this was nasty and inedible. I rate this "total fail."

From the #vss365 jukebox for #tax, this is 1040 Blues by The Robert Cray Band from the 1993 album Shame and a Sin. The song is named after the income tax form in the U.S. Apparently Robert would prefer to pay less in taxes.

I read Good Material by Dolly Alderton. At first I thought it was just a fluffy novel. But ultimately it was a brilliant examination and dissection of a modern break-up. It has heart and humour, and it is very British. Recommended.

I read Day, a novel by Michael Cunningham. It examines of a group of related characters on April 5, 2019, 2020 & 2021. So yes it's a pandemic novel but not really about the pandemic. It's about the characters' struggles with the past and the future. The reason to read this is the gorgeous writing.
