¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Before anything else, shout out to @lilkit’s most recent mixes (on Spotify here and here)!
I had one mix ready back in February that I just never uploaded, and then just recently put together a second one, but decided I may as well trim them both a bit and put em on a super mix so here you go! That’s my explanation for the stuff that probably feels kinda dated, and making you decide whether or not you have it in you to commit to 28 songs
Hope you guys still have a good time 👨🍳 I’ll probably be back in less than 6 months @kingrufus, @closetemo, @ablacklodge (Happy Birthday!!), @anne-frank-was-a-babe
Donald Glover Covers HITS Most Recent Issue
“Glassnote’s Childish Gambino, who graces the cover of our most recent issue, follows up his acclaimed album Awaken, My Love with two Golden Globe wins for Atlanta, the trailblazing FX series he created and stars in. The Globes reactivated sales for the record, which finds the actor/writer/musician transitioning from brainy hip-hop to soulful funk-rock with aplomb. This HITS cover appearance, meanwhile, is a nightmare from which he desperately hopes to Awaken.”

Cerro Tololo Trails : Early one moonlit evening car lights left a wandering trail along the road to the Chilean Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory. Setting stars left the wandering trails in the sky. The serene view toward the mountainous horizon was captured in a telephoto timelapse image and video taken from nearby Cerro Pachon, home to Gemini South. Afforded by the mountaintop vantage point, the clear, long sight-line passes through layers of atmosphere. The changing atmospheric refraction shifts and distorts the otherwise steady apparent paths of the stars as they set. That effect also causes the distorted appearance of Sun and Moon as they rise or set near a distant horizon. via NASA

Had a dream that McDonald’s had a big ad campaign that just said “WE HAVE IT” in black cryptic writing. So I went to a drive thru and said “I saw the sign. Can I have it” and the speaker was silent for a solid ten seconds before saying “do you think you’re ready” in my voice and I screamed and drove away
