highlyeccentricMusic:
Having subscribed to the Unwell patreon (Hartlife NFP) I have downloaded Michael Turrentine's 'John the Revelator' as well as the 'Rusty Standish' track Lost that I mentioned two weeks ago. I am enjoying it a lot.
Otherwise I have made no new music purchases and developed no notable listening habits. I think maybe I did a nostalgic sweep back through my Libera albums and some choral compilations shortly after last post?
Postcasts and audiobooks:
I am really struggling to get through Garth Greenwell's What Belongs To You because of the embarrassment squick. I had to go to googlebooks and read ahead for one particular scene involving his teenage friend/crush, because I just could not handle the buildup at spoken speed. And now we are done with the retrospective and back to Awkward Encounters With Mitko.
This is such a good book, and SUCH a well done audiobook, but I really should have had it in text form.
Podcast wise, I finished S1 of Unwell! The finale was An Experience! I am now struggling with the opening double-parter of S2. I am familiar with house fire gothic, and, despite early traumatic exposure to Jane Eyre, can usually cope. I am familiar with Weird Forest Shit gothic, that's fine. But, given my particular phobias, 'Forest Fire Gothic' is REALLY STRETCHING MY CAPACITY TO COPE, especially at spoken speed.
That's about it. I should do some links, but... naaah.
