For our anniversary, my wonderful wife gave me @therickbaker 's #Metamorphosis , a deluxe edition in two hardcover volumes in a slipcase. This compiles most of Baker's work, an unparalleled display of creative richness, full of sketches, personal photography, early drawings, many materials, it's a gorgeous book.

I'm told Tár is available on Apple TV and I loved it at the cinema, despite receiving highly critical reviews.
Friday’s first #Recording is “it’s a Beautiful Day” band ‘s eponymous record from way back in the day. Friend Rick Hartt introduced me to them and kindly loaned his copy from time to time. Wear some flowers in your hair … SF ‘60s music. Very lyrical Melodie’s carried usually by violin. #recommended

Ever been to a museum or art gallery (e.g., the British Museum) & been mildly surprised about what you find: stuff from everywhere else in the world? Shimrit Lee's book #Decolonize Museums explains all the ways in which powerful countries looted artifacts & bodies from the Global South. She advocates for massive repatriation and reparations to restore the cultural legacies of those long under colonialism's boot. An impressive, diverse movement is already fighting for this. #Recommended #Reading

Tuesday’s #Recording is a sleeper lurking in my #roon #recommended albums. This #postbop #piano #jazz #quartet record is a bit of a #slowjam #postbop program. Sadly, no credits with this ACT label disk but composition, arranging, and playing make for a varied, engaging, and enjoyable experience.
I'm just over halfway done with "Do Nothing: How to Break away from Overworking, Overdoing, and Underliving" by Celeste Headlee, and I am thoroughly enjoying it.
#recommended for all your anti-hustle culture needs, and for those among us who would love to see "oooh I've been so BUSY" not be the most prestigious response to "how are ya?"
PS, I am also trying out #Megalodon in hopes it might do BOTH pictures and emoji (gasp!) without crashing. So far so good? :blobfoxfloofcofe:

One of my all-time favorite bloggers debunking climate nonsense just joined the Fediverse: Sou from the Australian blog #Hotwhopper.
Representing science, I feel I have to be somewhat friendly/neutral responding to the industrially produced flood of BS. It is cathartic to read posts of someone who does not have that constraint, while maintaining high scientific standards of evidence.
