reading Jorge Joestar now that it's translated, just for the sake of it. once I'm done with that I can get back to Journey of the West, which is pretty good from what little I've read.

Currently I'm listening to pic related, I've always enjoyed In A Silent Way as sort of a precursor to the late night and I last heard the new albums from Arca and Father John Misty, hated both, ESPECIALLY hated the latter.
>current book
The Glass Bead Game by Herman Hesse. Comfy as fuck and engrossing, this is only the second thing I read from Hesse, I read Siddhartha a while back and thought it was cool, Glass Bead Game (AKA Magister Ludi) I am enjoying way, way more.

Currently listening to this for the first time. Pretty good but I think I like Dots and Loops more. Last was James Blake self-titled, pretty okay I guess.

Just started A Confederacy of Dunces today, I love it. Ignatius Reilly seems like the kind of person who would unironically shitpost on 4chan.

Last listen was this. It's actually my favorite album of his. This album and his four songs on Nite Flights especially have such a forward thinking feeling to them while still being tuneful. I love his records after it too but this art rock sound was my favorite of his.

Haven't read anything in awhile. It's honestly really hard for me to focus on something like that. I used to love to read but now anything longer than twenty pages is difficult for me to finish. I'm considering looking into treatment for attention disorders because it's impeding a lot of things now.

only stereolab I've heard is Emperor Tomato Ketchup, I should really listen to more. also A Confederacy of Dunces seems good

To Die for the People - Huey Newton
Collection of essays, lectures, letters, etc. during his time with the Black Panthers. Good stuff, a lot of it feels like it's still very relevant today.

It's alright. Pretty repetitive, but relaxing
>current book
Small Architecture by Philip Jodidio. I like it. Some eh stuff in there, but mostly lots of cool houses/structures

I like the second half more than the first

I'm idly reading The Bronx Zoo, a book about the '78 New York Yankees. It's pretty good if you like baseball.

"Triptych" by Tomonari Nozaki. Pretty good.

>Current book
A Storm of Swords. Overall enjoyable, but I'm constantly wondering how books more focused around single timelines/characters would've been, rather than George Martin's tendency to bounce around constantly.

>>72059486
All fantasy and sci-fi writers should take notes from George, non-linear and really fleshed out worlds and characters and little anecdotes are the future.

>>72059874
The fleshed out world part is good, but I can assure 90% of authors would not pull off non-linearity well at all.

in the court of the crimson king. I like it. it has an archaic, almost medieval quality that mixes with my '80s childhood prog rock memories and gives me a weird sense of awe. like watching the very first silent movie or something.

>current listen
odelay. been listening to it since it came out and it never gets old to me. every time I hear it I think "I should look for some more dust brothers stuff" and then I never get around to it.

>current book
white oleander by janet fitch. it's not high literature but I'm enjoying it so far.

I have this too. not sure if I'm just getting old or what, but I can't plow through books like I used to, and can't seem to retain what I read either. I tried reading the fall and herman hesse and other /lit/-tier stuff over the past year to try and get my brain working again, but once I'd get done with a book, I'd try to analyse it and realised I couldn't remember most of what I'd just read.

>Beach Boys - Heroes and Villains.
>A Passage to India (11:00-11:10/11:30-11:40/12:00-12:20)

A Passage to India is a great book thus far, on page 200 as of now, reminds me very much of To Kill A Mockingbird though with more attention to racial strife and rebellion in the British Raj rather than animosity between blacks and whites. The Romanovs are also fun to learn about, surprising how much intrigue existed back there and the fact that virtually everyone under the dynasty was corrupt af. Have to appreciate the few participants in the dynasty that aren't, the Synod kinda sounded like something out of A Clockwork Orange, how he got away with that I'll never know.

Just started listening to the Smile Sessions for the first time. Been listening through the Beach Boys discography with around 20 listens on each album, eventually it got to the point where I thought "fuck it" and skipped the self-titled, to be frank their post-Love You content is so watered-down and regressive (in the musical sense) that its legitimately depressing.

I'm reading the The Book of the New Sun. It's a bit dense for me but the world building is super interesting.
