Release day round-up:
- Beach House EP - Really good, as expected from them.
- The National - As someone who loves them, I was very disappointed. Feels phoned in. A few good songs in there tho.
- Jessie Ware - Absolute fucking fire. Yet another AOTY contender from her. She refuses to miss.

If anybody has any secrets or methods for getting to, where to stay, or where to park in Chicago, I'll hear them. Trying to plan for Pitchfork this year, and everything seems several times more expensive than the last couple years.
Multiple anti trans bills being fast tracked through state legislature, when the vast majority of the public, data, and medical professionals disprove. Long for the day these scum bags keel the fuck over.
