^ Thanks for posting. I don't want to mention names to spoil, but we all got a kick out of seeing the two get to the finale. Gave it a try over dinner, then watched and watched.

I used a Seitz above.

The now poor man’s 50MP version still looks cool, right?

Anyone have $10K for a good cause? Bueller?

Hi. I'm Ric Blessing, from the edge of civilization, still fighting every other human on the planet that season two was better than season one. 🫣

Still whipping it good, Devo looks back on 50 years via a new Sundance documentary https://www.msn.com/en-us/movies/news/still-whipping-it-good-devo-looks-back-on-50-years-via-a-new-sundance-documentary/ar-BB1h1mTM

Max has a new Jason Momoa limited series, On The Roam, which is pretty eye-rolly, but drop into the second episode to wonder with photographer Todd Hido to have a great time.

Was invited by Christian to the California Historical Radio Society open house yesterday. Related: discovered there was a California Historical Radio Society yesterday. It’s housed in a hidden old non-Bell/independent telephone and telegraph wireless exchange building in Alameda. All volunteers and donations at this point, but will be fun to watch this grow into a museum.

Happy birthday!

Hope it’s a great birthday

A pretty fun read… “Every now and then, safari goers make the fatal mistake of forgetting that they're surrounded by wild animals-that no matter how well managed the environment may be, it is filled with wild things, dangerous to their core. The Bible is like that too. When we read these ancient texts —no matter how carefully managed they've been —we're visiting wild and dangerous terrain, and who knows what we'll find there. The biblical world is full of monsters. Uncanny creatures lurk in every direction, from the hybrid monsters surrounding God in heaven to the stunning array of peculiar beings touching down on earth, and from giants in the land of milk and honey to Leviathan swimming beneath the seas. Most have been tamed by time and tradition. The cherubim -menacing, winged animal guardians-have become heavenly babies, marketed for feel-good cuteness on greeting cards and framed prints to be hung on a bathroom wall. The seraphim, multi-winged creatures with serpentine bodies and humanoid hands, have become conflated with angels. Angels, meanwhile, have acquired the soft-edged glow of a Hallmark card, even as they are some of the deadliest shapeshifters in a universe teeming with bizarre figures. Other monsters are hidden altogether, masked in translation as natural phenomena, like the demons Pestilence, Plague, and the Chill, who'd be prime comic book villains - except that they work for The Good Guy.”

"15,000 camera bodies." Okay, I still have room to grow.

Went back to season three of Fargo to watch with Mel as she's only seen the last couple of seasons. I swear this show is so underrated across its entire run. Feels so good to trust nearly every choice on a production. #coensadjacent

Hope it was a great day!

^ It’s been a blast to alternate Slow Horses and Fargo episodes recently.

How do the listed genres currently compare? Qobuz for instance had a separate Bluegrass category. I don't remember what Tidal did, but Apple Music just tosses everything under [Bro-]Country.
