“the shortcuts you take are your style”
What was in the water in Portland, Oregon fifteen years ago? Just realized that two of my favorite records, Golden Retriever’s “2” and Yellow Swans’s “Going Places” were released three months apart in 2010. 🎶🤯 goldenretriever.bandcamp.com/album/golden-r… yellowswans.bandcamp.com/album/going-pl…
Helen Vendler was the greatest reader of poetry I’ve ever known, also an extraordinary teacher, also a supremely decent and generous person. I feel so lucky to have been her student. bostonglobe.com/2024/04/23/met…
I loved Raphael Rogiński’s album “Talàn” but didn’t think to go hunting on YT for live sets. Grateful to @PhilipSherburne for pointing to this half-hour performance; it’s gorgeous. youtu.be/CFsFBuq3whA?fe…
I’ve used this one app for years, and always wanted a particular kind of search. I even requested it! Turns out it’s been there all along, and today I got pointed to it. 🤯 As I work on my own product, that’s such a valuable lesson about the importance of good documentation. 📝
Would add: – Pouring a Sprite/7-Up into a glass filled with ice and immediately closing your eyes & putting your face into the fizz bouncing off the top – Eating the potato-chip bits from the end of the bag off a big spoon; salty and crunchy on top, cool and smooth on the bottom

This Raphael Rogiński track, from an album influenced by the Black Sea that the Polish guitarist released last year, stops my heart every time I hear it. Just came up on shuffle. 🖤🖤🖤🖤 youtu.be/Qz3l2VsjiJs?fe…
I’ve been enjoying Jake’s web designs for almost a decade, so it was a deep pleasure to talk with him about what underpins that work. (And I didn’t know he read FM before I wrote to request an interview!) 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

Just learned that @bthdonohue is resuming full-time work on @instapaper. Between that and @CastroPodcasts being acquired and once again actively developed, I’m eager to see what some “old friend” apps get up to in the coming months.
Over the past year, I've been talking to one of my favorite living artists about love, grief, his band's matchless legacy, & what's next. to say it's been an honor & privilege considerably understates the way I feel. anyway here it is. newyorker.com/culture/person…
Four years ago today I made a little email newsletter & blog post with links to “100 things not related to the pandemic” that “I’ve found beautiful, useful, or sustaining.” Click and open a bunch of tabs and explore: sholis.com/blog/100-thing…
Kanaan’s “Afterpoem” was one of my favorite records of 2023. But for some reason I didn’t go back and listen to her back catalogue. Got to “Foxes” today and it’s really, really lovely. Highly recommended. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻
