NYC in the 70s and 80s at its most bankrupt had character, vibe, adventurousness and offered opportunities like no other rube city anywhere else, unless mediocrity is a measure of success😀
Yeah, and access to every great artist anytime didn't hurt either.

nobody and nothing

A.D. Macquin ~ Optics 1820

I understand, but don't approve, why kids call each other names as a substitute for actual engagement with ideas and arguments. I don't understand why grown-ups do the same or why our society has become so tolerant of or numb to such imbecilic behavior.

It’s not a plot. But it is pretty creepy when right-wing weirdos keep going to college campuses & events w/young women & tell them they should drop out college, get married as young as possible & have more babies than they can afford. It echoes Hitler’s Lebensborn almost exactly.

I don’t understand why more ACTUAL progressives aren’t speaking up about the cultural dead end we’ve hit.

✅ No, it doesn’t make sense to link reproductive healthcare to Palestine. It’s stupid.
✅ Yes, you should vote for Joe Biden, and stop being a child.
✅ No, the United

The old town, Quebec City.

Stare like a child, wait for the signs
Tell your deepest dark
Goodbye'

Miles Davis ~ He Loved Him Madly (1974)

Miles' deep felt elegy to the passing of Duke Ellington, a meditation on sadness and loss, and one of his lesser known masterworks. This later became a huge influence on Eno's formulation of Ambient Music.
