I refuse to watch any news today. Instead filling it with Thai food, -10 degree (brrrrrr 🥶) walks, and Slowdive on my headphones. I’ll throw on your recommendation next!
::edit:: While looking up John Maus, I didn’t know he was from Minnesota! Sooo cool!
Trying to look at life with open arms and open eyes, and not a bitter heart. A humble wordsmith, yes, that’s me who refers to themselves as the humble wordsmith. I need to figure out my own life outside of what’s going on in the world, and one step at a time I have been. Still sober with a new attitude, healthier body, and soon to be healthier mind lol. Let’s take the good with the bad with a grain of salt. Maybe those saltier moments in life will flavor the good ones when they come.
You have eclectic yet good taste in music. I will give it a listen. I hope your future includes more writing. I almost felt like I was running in NYC, too. 😊
Thanks for sharing, Sara. Always love new music recommendations from you. I knew today would feel heavy for obvious reasons. To counteract the dread, I met up with a friend early today. happy to see your post today 🧡
Sara, you're clearly referring to Levain, and even as a non-tourist I'm shocked you wouldn't take the cookie! (and share it with Stacy because it is, indeed, oversized.)
I mean, my dorms were on 72nd street, and when I kept working there but lived off campus on 79th street, I'd walk by the Beacon (and an often over-friendly night guard) once I finished my shift at midnight. It was 13 years ago, so this resonates very much :D
something I love most about this sub is the music recs, it makes me feel like I’m connected to something in a time where we need the connection most! 💙
How do you find new music now? I used to use Pitchfork too, but not anymore, and I get so lost in Spotify I get so distracted, it is so hard to stick to anything.

Needed this today, thank you 🙏 let’s get through this hellscape 🎶 (and if even more shit hits the fan, just gotta pray for the asteroid 🤣🙃)

Thank you for the intro/playlist/recommendation. Sounds like a banger!
Love this record!

I like salty things! But they are good. :)
Lol maybe Sara didn’t want anyone to know where she used to live.
Hehe. I promise you, with the info Sara dropped here, 99.9% of New Yorkers will know exactly what she was referring too :D
YES
