🎉 Weekend Edition Vol.062

hunting for bargains

Good morning starshine! It was a bit of slow week here at Foofaraw HQ due to some pour decisions, but we made it here nonetheless. I'm going to be spending my weekend catching up on things and watching the Knicks/Pacers game tonight while my wife is off in Chicago, before she has to endure watching every single Finals game with me starting on the 5th. It's a lovely time of year!

There are points in your life that are defined by music. Songs represent relationships. Songs trigger memories. These are all crucial tracks.

Crucial Tracks is the song-a-day music journal where you share the songs that play a role in your life. Integrates with Apple Music, Mastodon, and Bluesky. Free!

First up this week, the latest from Joel in the world of Cavendish as he continues to kill it building out this entire universe through short story after short story.

Then this weeks short story is a flash fiction piece coming to us from Jon Hansen. I don' t want to spoil too much, but our main character is having a pretty shitty day, is interrupted by a deafening distraction before he finds silence.

And lastly, Nick is back with another excellent essay, this time on dire wolves and genetic mutation.

Over in the real world, Wes Anderson's newest movie, The Phoenician Scheme, had it's limited release before going wide next week. And Jesse Armstrong (creator of Succession) released his HBO movie today!
