    Freaking love Run the Jewels. Their third album is incredible start to finish.

    Really like the album “Culture” by Migos. It’s normally the type of music I abhor (lyrics are all about drugs, guns and bitches), but I find the melodies infectious. “Slippery” is my jam.

    J. Cole’s new album “KOD” is really good. No earworms, but the overall concept and execution are stellar.

    Also really like the 2013 Ghostface Killah album “12 Reasons to Die”. I bought it based on a review which stated that it was a concept album based on giallo flicks. Sadly it’s not really that at all (only the album art evokes some giallo like feelings) but it’s still a great album. Solid production and mood.

    Run the Jewels 3 is good. I want to hear more from them.

    Ontario voted in Doug Ford (aka Donald Trump 2.0, and brother of Rob Ford the Toronto mayor who smoked crack with gangs).

    So begins Canada’s war on poor people, women and immigrants to follow in the footsteps of the USA.

    Canada had Harper in charge before, so this is not new.

    Also Scar that sounds awesome.

    I'd send a sympathy card with a gift cert for a food delivery service. They're going through hell right now, and it's good to 1) know you aren't alone and 2) have easy food options.

    If it's a close friend, maybe give it a touch of space and then ask if you can visit? I have to think the only thing worse than having people around you in that moment of tragedy is being alone.

    Maybe you could also contact a therapist or grief counselor and ask them for advice?

    Call or visit when you can if you're close to that friend, tho they may be getting inundated with contact by others and sometimes taking the time to process things alone is what some people need. Hard to gauge. I'm sorry your friend is going through that.

    I asked him on Facebook. He said he simply didn't feel like posting anything anymore so he didn't.

    He told me was around and just taking a break.

    But I can understand how liberating it must be to post exclusively on twitter and get no replies.

    Can't imagine why he would want to take a break.

    Can't tell if your tone is sarcastic, tongue-in-cheek, or straight? Help me out.

    I get the feeling; I keep wanting to take a break from social media altogether but can't quite pull the trigger. Maybe another Facebook friend purge will do the trick.

    I've started to only use facebook to find out about certain events in my area, and group invites. Although things get complicated if you have to relay information to that one person who doesn't have fb, and everyone else does. lol.

    I barely use Facebook. I dont even have it on my phone. I upload instgram photos to facebook and change my backdrop when the season changes, but that's about it.

    I can never quit. I started a tribute page for one of my friends who passed away in high school, and it wont let me deactivate FB unless I transfer ownership or delete the page.
