Tags: anyway , b/c reasons , switch/twitch , though I don’t drive fast , driving fast is for those young enough , to still fancy themselves immortal , yesterday I was birdwatching with a cool friend , and we were talking about sea level rise , and I mentioned that I’d done the math , and determined that it was very unlikely , I’d personally live to see 2 feet of slr , I said that per actuarial data the most likely year , for me to die , was 2038 , and he was like 2038??? , and I was like I know right? , and he was like how old ARE you? , I don’t drive fast .

G_d’s Pee AT STATE’S END! by Godspeed You! Black Emperor
we wrote it on the road mostly. when that was still a place. and then recorded it in masks later, distanced at the beginning of the second wave. it was autumn, and the falling sun was impossibly fat and orange. we tried to summon a brighter reckoning there, bent beneath varied states of discomfort, worry and wonderment.
we fired up the shortwave radios again, for the first time in a long time. and found that many things had changed. the apocalypse pastors were still there, but yelling END TIMES NOW where they once yelled “end times soon”. and the transmission-detritus of automated militaries takes up more bandwidth now, so that a lot of frequencies are just pulses of rising white static, digital codexes announcing the status of various watching and killing machines. and the ham-radio dads talk to each other all night long. about their dying wives and what they ate for lunch and what they’ll do with their guns when antifa comes.
this record is about all of us waiting for the end. all current forms of governance are failed. this record is about all of us waiting for the beginning, and is informed by the following demands= empty the prisons take power from the police and give it to the neighbourhoods that they terrorise. end the forever wars and all other forms of imperialism. tax the rich until they’re impoverished.
much love to all the other lost and lovely ones, these are death-times and our side has to win. we’ll see you on the road once the numbers fall.

Tags: godspeed you! black emperor , sigh , anyway , and awesome , 2359 , gy!be , i owe my son a concert of theirs , b/c I was a fascist dad , who denied him it , when we had tickets , b/c it was 11th grade finals , and he was I thought , insufficiently nose-to-grindstone , and in fairness , i'd taken him to a different show , gary numan I think? , earlier that same week , and parenting is a team sport , and my teammate was dubious , about my commitment to winning , after that first concert , such that the second one seemed a bridge too far , looking back on it , it was the wrong choice , b/c I now believe , that whatever he gained , from that night at home that week , was less than he would have gained , from seeing that show , which was intense .

VIDEO
stopandimagineloveforever :
Yesterday – Trailer 1 (Universal Pictures) HD
“Until a month ago, you were a complete failure. And then somehow you became the biggest star in the world. As if by magic. So what happened?” Therein hangs a tale. Here’s the first trailer for Yesterday , director Danny Boyle ’s film about what might happen if suddenly nobody remembered the Beatles — except one guy.
Said guy is Jack (Himesh Patel ), and he’s about to become a very big deal.
Along with the trailer, Universal Pictures also announced a June 28 release for the rock ‘n’ roll comedy. Here’s the logline: Jack Malik is a struggling singer-songwriter in a tiny English seaside town whose dreams of fame are rapidly fading, despite the fierce devotion and support of his childhood best friend, Ellie (Lily James ). Then, after a freak bus accident during a mysterious global blackout, Jack wakes up to discover that the Beatles have never existed — and he finds himself with a very complicated problem. Kate McKinnon also stars.
Scripted by Love Actually writer Richard Curtis, Yesterday is produced by Working Title’s Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner alongside Matt Wilkinson, Bernie Bellew, Curtis and Boyle. Nick Angel and Lee Brazier are the executive producers.

Tags: closer... , anyway , this whole see it before its released thing , is cool for sure , but also kind of... i dunno... , frustrating? , I think because I'm at least as much a fan , of the creators and their act of creation , as of the creation itself , so the collective squee and sharing and stuff , is a big part of the experience for me .
