I sort of hate how my sense of "what's actually funny" is so out of wack during dreams, and a bit that absolutely kills as I'm sleeping completely burns away in morning light. Case in point: Someone in my dream had a father who had the name "illiterate dad". And my joke was "heh, I guess you shouldn't try to summon him by spelling out his name!" (I think like, yelling "D, A, D!") Like, that's barely even a joke, but my sleep self was so eager to share it with the world.

If we nominate Trump, we will get destroyed.......and we will deserve it.

Took long enough.

That was the president of the United States on the day before the midterms. Choosing to make a speech at Reflecting Pool. To talk about the Reflecting Pool. No symbolism. No metaphors. Just straight up pool maintenance. That was Donald Trump's "I Had It Cleaned" speech, if you will.

4 star:
* Born to Be Alive (Mix 79) (Patrick Hernandez)
from a random tik-tokky video. "Born to be Alive" is such a wonderful sentiment - is it Zen or just dumb?
* Vitamin C (Can)
via the series "The Gentlemen"
* Big Yellow Taxi (Joni Mitchell)
I do like songs that have the singer breaking into laughter. Via MBMBaM podcast.
* Dancing In The Moonlight (feat. NEIMY) (Jubël)
cover heard in a store in P-town

3 star:
* Move (Santana, Rob Thomas & American Authors)
heard at the Hotel Regency
* Sunrise (Norah Jones)
via Lynette, from a concert announcement.
* Uninvited (Alanis Morissette)
We saw a local production of "Jagged Little Pill" that I liked
* Simon Says (Pharoahe Monch)
do dig that Godzilla movie sample, though the rap here is a kinda inane. My favorite podcast Get Played has had a Godzilla month.
* Just Breathe (Pearl Jam)
from the movie "Kodachrome". I think I've been too dismissive of Pearl Jam.
* Sweet Child O' Mine ()
from the movie "Captain Fantastic", the cast singing Back on my Halloween BS (bone sousaphone)

It is hilarious how much of eminem's lazily delivered verse on his joint with Kid Rock is basically apologizing / recounting history / justifying his appearance. Its like he lost a bet.
