“I was a victim of a series of accidents, as are we all.” ~ Kurt Vonnegut, from The Sirens of Titan

Kurt Vonnegut was a novelist with a unique style: Funny and tragic, sometimes blunt to the point of vulgar or childishly simple, and ping-ponging between hope and bleak nihilism. Many of his works were inspired by his experiences during the Second World War, where he witnessed the bombing of Dresden firsthand. His greatest work, Slaughterhouse-Five, approached this event through a sci-fi lens, having the war veteran Billy Pilgrim coming “unstuck in time” and revisiting his experiences in non-linear fashion. (Though it remains deliberately ambiguous whether the sci-fi explanation is real, or merely the product of post traumatic stress.)

My song ‘Somebody Up There Likes Me’, an instrumental piece, takes its title from Vonnegut’s The Sirens of Titan. It’s the last track on the album, and I seem to recall (though it’s been a while since I’ve read it) that it’s the last line in the book. The Sirens of Titan was an early Vonnegut book, pure sci-fi, following a man who (spoiler warning!!!) finds that his entire life, and indeed all of human history, has been manipulated by aliens as a means of delivering a spare part to a stranded ship. It was a big influence on Douglas Adams (one of my longtime obsessions), who describes it thusly: “Sirens of Titan is just one of those books – you read it through the first time and you think it's very loosely, casually written. You think the fact that everything suddenly makes such good sense at the end is almost accidental. And then you read it a few more times, simultaneously finding out more about writing yourself, and you realize what an absolute tour de force it was, making something as beautifully honed as that appear so casual.”

Well, that’s every song covered from the album. The full release is only a week away. Which one are you most excited to hear? ✨

The Rocky Graziano Centennial

Born 100 years ago today former World Middleweight Champion — and show biz personality — Rocky Graziano (Thomas Rocco Barbella, 1919-1990). The boxing section of Travalanche has grown to be pretty robust; nearly all the old pugs dabbled in show biz, and just about all of them were welcome brothers-in-arms. Grazianio had greater claims to fame than many in films and television, however. I’ll lead…

I love Tumblr because nothing matters here truly. There are no influencers. Having followers doesn’t mean anything. It’s just a site where people post their sporadic thoughts and rb pretty pictures. Anyone who thinks any of this matters is woefully missing the point

#I joined tumblr for the aesthetics and now I’m here bc it’s the most low pressure social media to be on #Instagram is ppl’s highlight reel but Tumblr is where u see their pure thoughts unobstructed and I adore that #It’s very nice to have people to relate to and is def the main appeal to me but I don’t think there’s much more to it than that genuinely #Monetization on tumblr isn’t a thing and probably won’t be so it feels stupid to put more stake than necessary in it. Like you’re in the #Trenches over tumblr of all things. Embarrassing #I know chronically online people exist bc I have seen them in my or somebody else’s inbox but imagine waking up at 70 one day and the #Realization hitting u like a freight time that u wasted all ur time thinking tumblr. TUMBLR. This dying website. Has enough weight for u to #be sending anon hate or reviewing ppl’s blogs like they’re some kind of product. Brother this is licherally tumblr #I choose to laugh at this behavior than take it seriously bc absolutely no one is driving me crazy on my OWN blog. On tumblr dot com. #I refuse #I will do whatever I want forever etc

meg baby, I promise we’ll all look the other way if you decide to strangle that chimera ant built bitch. I promise we won’t say nothing.

#nicki got to be one of the nastiest bitches I’ve ever seen in my life #you ain’t had a fucking hit in 10 yrs good enough to act the way you do #it’s crazy it took her being so vile to meg for ppl to get it #it’s always ‘protect blk women’ w/her until it’s somebody she don’t like lmao #and her only beef with her is that she collabed with cardi #the only one who stuck by her side mind you so ofc she #she’s been terrible and I remember back in 2017 when ppl jumped me for ‘defending a Latina woman’ over her #the same bitch that co opted a hashtag meant for missing and murdered blk women for her own bullshit #while cardi was using her platform to speak up for breonna Taylor and police brutality? oh okay #she’s a nasty witch and her karma will come #rap beef aside #‘how you got 3 Grammys and can’t stay on beat?’ #how are you the supposed queen and been rapping since Jesus was in Jerusalem but have zero? #bringing up her dead mother..you deserve to rot #cherry chats 🍒 #I’m so happy cardi no longer feeds into her bullshit and lets her stupid ass talk to the wall #all the new girls are outshining her and I’m so glad they don’t have to grovel to her #the fact that these girls just came out and are her competition says more abt nicki than it does Meg cardi latto or anybody else #her peers should be missy kim queen latifah etc #and yet she’s linking up with 23 year olds and beefing with girls 20 years her junior #guess that predator spirit run in the family huh
