	♥ 9:47pm northguineahills: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:43 you're too young for cataracts unless you had medicinal reasons to give them to you or were a lifeguard in a previous life.. (when i had my surgeries, the other patients were in their mid 70s or older)

	♥ 9:51pm TonyR: For MDD, Wills Eye Hospital's official recommendation to this diabetic was over-the-counter eyeball moisturizing (like fake tears). It is said to stem from corneal abrasion aggravated by dryness (you know how diabetics dehydrate and shit).

	♥ 9:52pm northguineahills: ↳ Aitch @9:50 thanks, aitch. i appreciate it. it just made me stronger, more resolved to succeed again...
	🥁 ♥ 9:53pm Kat in the chat: Both those Freda Payne sides are worth the spin
	♥ 9:53pm TonyR: Husband just had cataracts surgically resolved. If you don't have the right insurance, better hope you don't have a stiigmatism. Freedom!

	🥁 ♥ 9:54pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Aitch @9:53 ooh I never thought of that :(

	♥ 9:55pm northguineahills: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:50 well, as long as you can recognize people 2m away, and can see colors, and see cars when crossing the street you're ok (no, get it fixed, mine happened so fast, it was less than fun). /of course, mine was fast due to the medication given to me at the time...

	🥁 ♥ 9:58pm pot8o: ↳ northguineahills @9:57 my mom has a bunch (mostly country but some soul, rock, and pop) and i tend to grab lots of them from thrift shops because they sell them for dirt cheap

Aug 24 i had a City clearance interview. 3 hours later, it was granted. so, i'm still waiting in whatthefuckery limbo (i just want to start!) thanks for asking!
	♥ 10:00pm TonyR: ↳ Song: "Brother Louie" by "Stories" Bought this record, when it was new, because I thought it was something else. HATED IT.
	♥ 10:00pm northguineahills: ↳ northguineahills @9:58 (i'm jealous)
	🥁 ♥ 10:01pm Kat in the chat: I used to have a lot of 7"s but didn't hold on to most of them, the ones I have now are a hilariously random selection.Maybe 50 total at present.
	🥁 ♥ 10:01pm pot8o: i would 100% fly to nyc to attend the record fair if it weren't for the fact that i have nowhere near that amount of disposable income

	♥ 10:04pm northguineahills: ↳ TonyR @10:02 my only issue is maybe my debt. i consolidated it/eliminated some. but, now it's october, and now i need to start my second payments (not to mention wfmuish). (i have nor record, so, otherwise i'll be fine).
	🥁 ♥ 10:04pm pot8o: i could've sworn i have half that, most of not all of them are just stuffed into a medium sized cardboard box in my bedroom
	♥ 10:05pm TonyR: I had 150 from the 80s and on. Just packed 'em up and gave them to a local thrift store. Had to declutter, and I'm pretty sure the receiver "got" how special the collection was (in general, not just to me)).
	♥ 10:06pm TonyR: ↳ TonyR @10:05 Oh, tears were shed, but they had to go.
	♥ 10:06pm northguineahills: ↳ TonyR @10:02 i've gotten the 'second' or 'third' interviews 2-4 months after the previous ones (i have many interview threads still existing). so, hang in there. time is a less than savory name, and the powers that be don't give three shits, but, they'll get back to you...

I saw 5 records w/in two record stores there in just the dollar and $5 dollar bins (i didn't have the heart to look at the other records)
	♥ 10:09pm TonyR: ↳ Kat in the chat @10:08 And the Philly newbie nailed the history question!
	♥ 10:09pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Kat in the chat @10:08 ah, thanks, was really only joking
	♥ 10:10pm TonyR: ↳ northguineahills @10:09 Remember what happened to Lot''s wife!!!
	♥ 10:10pm northguineahills: ↳ TonyR @10:08 i actually know how to 'cheat' this marathon, and get my icons back. (not my first marathon). I'm just waiting for good news so i don't have to reset my s4L as a last resort...

The Radio Is Broken with Rich In Washington: Playlist from October 13, 2023

View Rich in Washington's profile

The Radio Is Broken is a three-hour spelunk through the canyons and fissures of humanity's collective unconscious. It sounds as if a field recording of the Culture Industry were a sonic juggernaut barreling down a rickety track—except that tunnel ahead is just painted onto a sheer cliff wall. With occasional forays into what might pass for "normal" music. Prerequisite journey: Cratedigger's Lung
