“It’s become my second nature / to wander through the pet store / and stare into the sideways gaze of a lizard / Doesn’t always make me feel better / Just less alone”

This cover goes so crazy who knew Jessica Simpson was this deep…
You speak and it's like a song
And just like that all my walls come down
It's like a private joke just meant for us to know
I relate to you naturally
Everybody else just fades away
Sometimes it's hard to breathe
Just knowing you found me

And all my armor falling down in a pile at my feet
And my winter giving way to warm, as I'm singing him to sleep

Can’t hear the final notes of Plainsong without anticipating the opening notes of Pictures of You. It’s like that all the way through.

Many things to recommend this show: complex character-driven drama & moments of quiet contemplation punctuated by sudden & visceral violence; the most important characters aren’t always who you might expect (as in: men & colonial interlopers aren’t always as powerful as they think they are…); the way translation is depicted is brilliant & subtle. I could go on. A must watch if you love confident, thoughtful and surprising storytelling.

A meta-recommendation.
At Goodwill the other day, I was the unsuspecting stranger. The cashier noticed my debit card—it features an image of an audio cassette. (My credit union issues these to support KEXP, our local radio station!)
“I ask everyone with that card for a song recommendation,” said the cashier.
I gave him R.E.M’s “Orange Crush.”
So now this is a meta-meta-recommendation.
