yamamanamaIt was a much nicer day than last year, which meant it was a lot more crowded there.
I saw Adrienne, who remembers me from last week and thought about me on her train ride to Jazz Fest and has two tabby cats and a tattoo of a sleeping cat on her ankle and of an arrow on her arm.
Diego Joaquin Ramirez is a drummer and bandleader.
Jason Palmer is a jazz trumpeter. There’s an actor with that name too. The drummer has a yin-yang with red spokes pendant and the drummer had a hieroglyphic pendant.
One of the performances was canceled for some reason.
Gerschlauer and Fiuczynski play “mikrojazz” which is jazz on a microtonal saxophone and fretless guitar.
Gregory Lewis Organ Monk Trio plays organ jazz.
Ralph Peterson played with his new group Aggregate Prime.
Catherine Russell played with a band and before she joined them onstage, they played a New Orleans hot jazz version of Mr. Sandman.
Tea pronounces her name like “ti-ya,” not like the drink at all. It’s Serbian. I think it’s a diminutive of names like Dorotea.
I had to draw two portraits of Megan because I wasn’t satisfied with the first one. She has lotus earrings that go behind the ears, while her friend Marley has a navel piercing and a compass necklace. Megan says she tries to be an artist.
Melissa likes wearing earrings. The ones she had were prismatic elongated pyramids.
Both of Brigitte’s pendants are quartz wrapped in wire. one is the standard clear one while one is pink and yellow. The ancient Greeks thought that quartz was some kind of ice that had become so cold that it just stayed ice.
from what I can tell, bicolored quartz is typically made that way artificially.
Kayley had earrings made from discs of cork cut thin with little silver disks hanging from them, and wild hair.
Megan has no left brain, she says. She says that when she studied political science, it was a mixture of the abstract stuff and goings-on in the world today. When i took intro to international relations, it was mostly abstract stuff (realpolitik vs enlightened self-interest, Westphalia and the modern nation-state, which, as far as I’m concerned, has been rendered obsolete by the first world war).
Later on, I had a thought of Robert Lindsay’s “alt-left” being third-worldism from the point of view of places like Kenya, India, and Iran, or, in other words, rabid racism and misogyny and also support for the Axis of Resistance.
Had I not had this thought at 1 AM the night after, I’d have asked Megan what she thought of third worldism.
Stella’s like “it’s like having your photo taken in the 1920s.” Stella and Stephanie are both singers. Stella plays the bass as well. She's from Indonesia.
Tomás is impressed that I spelled his name correctly. I think in ancient Greek, θ was an aspirated t before it became a voiceless dental fricative, but I’m not sure when the change happened. Tomás has mirrorshades. Dylan was pretty impressed too, but not as impressed, because Dylan spells his name in the standard Welsh way.
I think she said her name was Noor. I also don’t think it matters how I spell it, because her necklace was in Arabic and there’s no standard Latinization of Arabic.
Elly and Sarah are not sisters, although they do look similar.
A woman had a pendant of a horned owl. A man has a tattoo of an astronaut floating in space and giving a hand signal of some sorts. In the background is the blackness of space, stars and planets, and the moon with maria like a skull picked clean. A woman had a t-shirt with various kinds of birds and flowers and safety pin earrings. A woman had thick curly hair and pins of things like cats in embrace and the question block from the original Super Mario Bros and a tattoo of some kind of four-legged forest spirit but not the one from Princess Mononoke as this one had stripes and of a wolf.
This was ganked from a thread on Metafilter about people from 4chan and 8chan going after ASMR to the point where Paypal shut then down.
burning question: In what bizarro world did we end up in where 4chan, 8chan and related - the same sites that brought us stuff like shitting dick nipples, lolicon, futa and dragons fucking cars - became the morality police of the internet? And what insane morons are listening to them?
