Shout out to the Funky Bunch. Seems like Marky Mark really used their funkiness as a springboard. I hope the Funky Bunch is okay. We honor you and whatnot, Funky Bunch.

Many years ago John gave me my first paying job in archives, cleaning Boston City Council dockets that were covered in coal soot, which was more fun than it sounds. Congrats on your retirement, John!

Rarely post, but am moved to share my love for the J Mascis project Heavy Blanket. Heavy stoner rock grooves with J absolutely shredding the bejeezus all over it. No lyrics, just unrelenting forward motion. Absolutely perfect work music for me.

He sees you when you’re sleeping
He knows when you’re awake
He knows if you’ve been bad or good

For reasons beyond my comprehension today I received a package from Amazon *UK* that I did not order containing a single bottle of anti fungal shoe spray. I prefer ghosts in the machine with better taste in gifts, frankly.

Only 256 pages? Pretty sure there were paragraphs that long in Gnomon.

I am *very* excited to announce that we’re hiring a cataloger to work on the Black Bibliography Project! Having been on the original BBP metadata team, I’ll be working closely with the new cataloger, and I’m happy to answer questions about the position!

There are few certainties in life, but me buying a metal album by a band called Archivist with the title “Construct” that I find at @redscroll is one of them.

Number 439 was brutally thrown off his gait by 440. Ridiculous! Should have been DQed. I throw my fedora down in disgust.
