2021-11-21 | me piro, vampiro

don’t worry about the panda. their name is pizza dog
jaja con jota
today i went to 7 shops trying to find coriander
- there is no coriander in blackheath
we had a guest team member for a couple of weeks and it was a joy
ok, i have to make some music and some tacos see ya

the music nook has been repurposed as a soldering nook, just need to get a little heatproof mat for it
this week i’ve been taking strength any time i might wanna text somebody, or be sad about the past, from an interview with Snow where she says “i ain’t gonna fuck with nobody that doesn’t whole-heartedly fuck with me”
i was sick a lot of the week
got some new clothes, they’re cute
- haven’t really bought many new clothes for a while. i have a lot of old clothes that are full of holes i’ve had for many years that i need to replace.
  - there’s a nice beef dish called old clothes
- got a new coat. it’s a black and large and has a big fluffy hood
- it’s been 3 years since i’ve had to go out by myself in ropa nueva and i really didn’t expect it to make me so nervous, but it did
- among the new clothes are a multi-coloured Thumper t-shirt and a gold rabbit necklace.
i’d like to recommend wearing sunglasses in the bath. feels amazing, don’t know why.
cried a lot this week. really bored of it.
how is it still fireworks day?
- someone let off a bunch of fireworks in the street right outside my window on Friday evening, it went on for about an hour. i was afraid like dog.
it’s good when baby cows wear those little hats

Snow Tha Product

persistent fireworks in the uncultivated gorse
does anyone know how the public domain works internationally, with the internet? like, WC Fields movies are public domain in the UK but not in the US. what happens if I make something based on a Fields movie and put it on Internet??
I am nesh
the etymology of “bits and bobs” might be pennies and shillings
it’s good and normal that Eric Schmidt and Henry Kissinger(!) are buddies who write books together
I went to a birthday gathering last night, today has been a write-off. I need to take some time off work to make some music, but not for the next fortnit
- I have a new desk coming on Wednesday, to replace the music nook
my taxi driver told me I looked very beautiful and asked me if I’d ever tried “casual”
- but luckily moments later they pondered aloud “why is elon musk so rich” and I was able to talk non-stop for 29 minutes about his great-grandmother (the first chiropractor in Canada!) and GM and energy credits and California law and the S&P500 and never let it go back to the previous topic (until I was out of the car, when it once again did)
- I was also on the phone with somebody when I got into the taxi and they stayed on the line and chipped in ideas, like I was a talk-show host. a lot of fun
the fireworks continue

Hallowtide begins
I was meant to go to a party in Southampton but instead I had a lie down on the sofa
I’ve been working too much. keep finding myself still working at 10p.m., or in Friday’s case at 9a.m.
- I have no natural reason to stop, need to fake it some how
this week had not much in it.
- i got a 1010music bluebox. made some music. it’s not very good. having a good time though.
  - i can use the little lfo device i made last week
- i went to the office, picked up a new computer.
- met a nice couple on the train, they sent me photos of their pasta when they got home
- sent a couple postcards. they should arrive on monday and tuesday.
can’t believe it’s been a year since i made those spooky peppers and our kombucha rotted on the mantle
just remembered i booked tomorrow off work, and the tension i didn’t know i was feeling melted away like the perfect silence after the fusebox blows

eating a beyond burger
- do you think we ever would have figured out we could do this with vegetables if we’d never eaten meat?
  - probably not, right?
    - so, question: what else can we do with vegetables ??
- it’s fucked up people invented bread though
- sometimes if you talk to a vegan about beyond burgers they will stare at you with wide open eyes and a chilling smile and say “IT BLEEDS”
i’ve been sick most of the week. also my blood sugar has been really high and has been melting the roof of my mouth. starting to feel better today

LFO device

i’m making a little usb midi lfo device
- currently implementing the bpm-synced sin function, which is much harder without a little math man about the house
i don’t know if i have anything else to report
ATB’s 9pm (til i come) was playing in Lewisham shopping center when i was leaving yesterday.
- second single i ever bought
- it came in a cardboard sleeve with a sticker saying “HMV Import”
- i bought it in the upstairs of a mall in Northern Ireland that I have never been to again, and have no idea where it is
  - that was also the first time i saw the cover of Nirvana’s Nevermind
- the first single i bought was Flat Beat by Mr Oizo.
  - got that in woolies
ricky martin’s livin la vida loca was the first #1 single to be fully made in a DAW
when i was having absolutely lysergic sit on a bench in battersea park last week, i realized i’d been drunk since July so i took a break for a week
i have a spot on my right areola. it looks and feels like a third nipple
thanks

my grandfather, he can’t read or write; but he can sing like nina simone
I went our for pixie’s birthday from Thursday until Saturday night
on Saturday morning I went for a long walk from Wandsworth to Camden
I saw ducky perform live on stage in a music hall in Windlesham
- it was wonderful
I’ve not gone to the rave, so i could spend Sunday recovering
