the fucking fuck is going to be 5 blocks from me tomorrow, excreting at gottleib's in #williamsburg.

yesterday in #nyc, a guy jumped a subway turnstile, so naturally the cops shot him, 2 bystanders, & another cop, *then* discovered he had a knife, resulting in these passive-ass copagandistic headlines. please keep these dangerous gun-toting maniacs off our streets & off our public transportation, which should be free anyway. (subway fare is $2.90.) #acab #FuckEricAdams

a doomy gloomy scene report from iron mountain (who handle tape vaults for much of the mainstream #music industry) on the present & future horrorism of long-term digital #archives, including failing harddrives, obsolete platforms, & incomplete metadata. https://www.mixonline.com/business/inside-iron-mountain-its-time-to-talk-about-hard-drives

man, i'm thoroughly bummed that the 3 books i wrote are no longer accessible as part of the @internetarchive library. i've purchased so, so many books after discovering them there (or the similarly declawed google books). i've also often used it to quickly reference my own books & others, especially if i'm out in the world & need to look something up. not like a library, actually a library. https://xoxo.zone/@waxy/112651689438313490 #books #libraries

does anyone happen to have access to the wall street journal archives from the '70s? i'm looking for one specific article that should be pretty easy to find (and, really, just the date of that article) & would very much appreciate some #research assistance.

high-step over to @WFMU for the frow show, from now 'til midnight ET, featuring a fully aglow all-#improv #folk #drone #jazz live set by the north carolina super-trio setting at around 10ish, plus lots of new/old/wonderful #music. https://bit.ly/3Qg5Mxu #radio

gently panicked article about modern archiving issues. mostly about #tv & #film but applies to #music, too. short translation: all #media is endangered, keep up the #piracy. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/digital/digital-preservation-film-tv-shows-archives-1235851957/

@abolisyonista @academicchatter if i have epub, i will often go to g00g books or internet archive & search for an exact phrase to try to confirm a page number in a print edition.

today, the #gratefuldead-cast begins our new season-within-a-season: 6 epic episodes about spring 1973, the newly announced “here comes sunshine” box set, & the most ambitious world-building business-spawning period in the band’s history. we’ve got guests (today: donna jean! alan trist! rosie mcgee! steve brown!), unprecedented access to the band’s business documents, & many surprises to come. https://www.dead.net/deadcast/here-comes-sunshine-grateful-dead-co

and last night in tokyo, after playin' "truckin'" at the previous show, #BobDylan debuted the #GratefulDead's "brokedown palace," though stopped after a few verses & said something like, "i thought i knew this song." https://www.boblinks.com/041423s.html
