The old study halls of Ervin Szabo library are hidden away on the fourth floor of what first seems like a fairly standard public library. The rooms are staggeringly beautiful and one of the best places I’ve come across for writing / reading / sitting in the quiet.

there is a big, back-lit oval opening in the ceiling that makes you feel like you’re ascending. the library itself is round! they got some cozy chairs and long tables to spread out at. the overhead lighting is cozy like a warm lamp.
my gf took us here when we were both having a bad day. it feels similar to some of turell’s works. designed by frank lloyd wright (for the heads). might be my favorite wright space i’ve found myself inside of.

Unlike chess, which can leave you at the mercy of a 45 minute defeat with only your insufficient brain power to blame, backgammon has a nice and light pace to it. Rolling dice feels good and you can put the blame on them in hindsight.
I think board games like that are a great way to sit and spend time with people and be in each other's presence.

Probably the number one domestic activity I fantasize about when I’m on tour. There’s a groundedness to it that feels like the antithesis of road life. Cooking is often the first thing I do upon returning home.

One of the albums that I’ve listened to the most. I remember many years ago being on acid watching the sun rise from my window and listening to Scott 3 feeling like I was riding through every emotion on the record to the furthest possible extremes, it was overwhelming and magnificent. When it was over I looked at myself in the mirror and saw I had become an old man.
