maturing is realizing how much i enjoy kreen-akrore as a standalone piece of art AND as the closer to mccartney and how (as always) the critics at the time were horribly wrong

#writing my semesterly beatles-related essay and i just played kreen-akrore on my radio show. in a real “difficult listening” phase rn #the panning breaths and the super monophonic harmonies. UGH! so cool

i juuuust reached out to my high school best friend who i haven't seen and barely talked to in years bc the timing felt right today after thinking about it for like a year. why is it always so scary to do that... i could throw up waiting for a reply

#i actually started crying and ran to tell my roommate things are so much better than they were a year ago

Lmao how is this real, "the ambient sounds of the world were wrong, sir"

#how is this guy a fucking music professor considering the whole point of cage’s 4’33 is that any noise can be considered art. insane way to #prove you’re both an awful person and have no idea what you’re talking about

i hope that the discussion about student protests does not get reduced to "privileged rich kids faffing around at an ivy league school." setting aside that tenuous claim, over the last week, protests have erupted over the entire country. a few days ago, riot police beat, pepper-sprayed, and arrested NYU faculty shielding students; protests started at the university of southern california when the admin cancelled the valedictorian's speech; encampments appeared at the university of southern carolina, UT dallas, the university of maryland, the university of new mexico, IUPUI, virginia tech, the university of virginia, the university of illinois, the university of north carolina — chapel hill, the university of pittsburgh, uc berkeley, the university of michigan — ann arbor, MIT, emerson, tufts, the university of rochester, rice, swarthmore, the new school, vanderbilt university, with students arrested; students protested or walked out at miami university, northwestern, temple, the 5 claremont colleges: pomona, pitzer, scripps, harvey mudd, and claremont mckenna, stanford, washington university in st louis, students were arrested at ohio state, students were confronted by riot police at cal poly humboldt, after which they occupied campus, students were arrested at the university of minnesota — twin cities, after which faculty walked out; and yes, there are protests at the other ivies, most notably yale, with students facing mass arests after encampments, but there is also an encampment at brown, protests appeared at cornell, princeton faculty issued a statement of solidarity while students are preparing an encampment, and harvard banned the undergraduate palestine solidarity committee. there are thousands of students who are protesting for palestine across the entire country, facing harassment, arrest, and suspension in return
