The first/pilot episode of Columbo is an absolute masterpiece of the genre, a perfect slice of 60s LA, with beautifully engineered plot twists, an incredibly avant-grade soundscape and cracking last 30minutes. Columbo oddly handsome and charming too. A strong rec for mystery lovers

Benny Safdie said Columbo inspired how they filmed The Curse, I’ve been wanting to watch it since

Truman Capote is an eccentric millionaire who invites the world’s greatest detectives to his house to solve a mysterious murder. It’s a parody of old detectives like Sam Spade, the Thin Man, Mrs Marple and, unfortunately, Peter Sellers as a Charlie Chan character.
You don’t have to be familiar with the original movies for it to be funny, but it will help if you watch with a fun friend.

I’ve been thoroughly enchanted by the warmth and fullness of sound from these KLH Model 6 speakers from the early 60s and the 1970s Pioneer SX-780 receiver. Picked both up from Facebook marketplace and it’s been a total treat for the ears. Show me yours! I can’t enough of this stuff
( I also have a raspebrry pi with a DAC running moode audio so I can also send amy music to it from my phone via airplay or Spotify connect, also sounds fantastic)

Any Bill Evans Trio album, particularly LIVE AT THE VILLAGE VANGUARD.
Floating Points albums including his remarkable collaboration of Pharaoh Sanders.
Dawn of MIDI if you want something a little more angular and abstract.

I think yes mossyelfie has it right - small deeds, connect with your local community and friends, reach out and connect with people when you can. We are all in this together, to varying extents.
That being said, it is really really bad. Unprecedented. If you’re in the US, I would also say that reaching out to your representatives and state AG is important. They are the ones we’ve elected to protect and defend the constitution on our behalf, and we have to support and empower them to do their jobs, but there is no question it’s going to be hard.
I also thoroughly recommend being intentional about drawing barriers. Set time aside to stop scrolling, read a book, go for a walk and remember the world is still beautiful. Nature continues on. The world keeps turning.
