Hi all -- Family of three with zero creativity when it comes to interior design. Master Bedroom is the last room we need to furnish, with existing furniture carried over from our tiny one bedroom apartment.

It's a large space, approximately 23 feet by 15 feet, with 8 feet high ceiling. I don't know if I need specific suggestions for design pieces or just big picture ideas about how to arrange the room.

A few comments:

• Furniture: The only piece of furniture we plan to keep is the bed frame.
• Seating: We are looking to have a cozy seating area (possibly with a couch or loveseat) somewhere in the room, likely towards the far wall by the windows, for reading and watching TV.

Obviously the band is unique in the way they layer sounds and create an atmosphere or hit you in the face repeatedly with loud rhythmic aggression, but I never hear anyone talk about the band or their individual members from a pure musicianship standpoint.

Are there any songs (or moments within a song) that stand out to you?

It's not like anyone is dropping killer guitar solos, so this element seems harder to gauge.

When I see them live, I'm impressed first and foremost with the band's endurance, especially Pravdica and Puleo, but curious to know any performances that standout otherwise.

(Not that any of this matters, but I'm taking guitar lessoms so the question has been on my mind.)

How do you guys listen to this? I'm a Spotify user but I feel like Spotify's process for adding Local Files can be hit or miss, and right now I can't seem to get these tracks from my Spotify Macbook desktop app to the Spotify app on my phone.

What's your process? Any other apps that work well for this?

“Blind” just came on and it took me a full minute to realize that this was not my phone playing. All credit to WFMU, but I assume that could be the only time I hear Swans on the radio.

My 5 year old daughter was in the car and never pays attention to any music that isn’t from a Disney movie, and asks, “What song is this?” without any prompting from me. I’ll be adding Filth to her iPad today. 👍

Saw them last night in Brooklyn and was blown away and need to experience this show again.

I see a bunch of recorded videos on Youtube for shows in 2024, but the sound is generally phone-quality.

Anyone know of any higher quality versions of these 2024 shows?

I recently ordered the CD online and it was a slim jewel case without the original wide case and lyrics book.

I went through a phase ten years ago where I purged my CD collection but now I want to build it up again.

We have about 0.4 acre of backyard and are looking to put in a patio and pool that would need to be designed together. Also looking to landscape the rest of the property in a way that makes sense with the pool/patio.

Do you trust a pool company to design a patio or vice versa? If not, who do you speak to first?

Also, relatedly - when is the best time of year to start installing a pool?

First time homeowner here, so I am well out of my comfort zone.

In 2021, the starting Running Back for the Minnesota Vikings scored 266.6 fantasy points, which would have been an RB4 finish (nearly tying the RB3 Joe Mixon at 266.9).

In Weeks 3, 5, 13, and 16 when Cook was out and Mattison started, Mattison scored 20.1, 22.8, 19.9, and 14.5 points. To make this (admittedly obvious) point, I am removing Mattison's points scored while both RBs played in a game.

Obviously, no one needs to be reminded that Mattison is a top-tier handcuff or that Cook gets the job done when he is actually on the field. But Cook finished RB15 last year because of missed games, so this post is a reminder that drafting both Cook and Mattison can still get you a return on that

In 2011 the ACLU sued the State of Georgia for not complying with the Motor Voter Act which requires states to offer voter registration at public assistance offices including motor vehicle offices. In 2012, Georgia settled the lawsuit and agreed to comply with the Act. https://www.aclu.org/press-releases/georgia-agrees-comply-motor-voter-act-settlement-aclu-suit

In Stacey Abrams' November 2, 2020 interview with NPR, she credits the Act in helping to register 800,000 new voters.

KELLY: I mentioned you have been super focused on getting people out to vote, getting first-timers

Basically, the title.
