I used to read like, all the fucking time, I'd read a book and tell my mom all about it, she'd do the same. When she died I just, didn't have anyone to talk about books with anymore and reading became difficult to impossible.

I started reading again last year, got through a few books. A tiny number but better than none, but noticed that the one I read digitally(radium girls) was much easier and pleasing for me to do so, despite the uh.. content. Because at some stage between my mothers death and this year I've started to HATE the feel of most paper that books are made out of. It makes me wash my hands, a lot. I now know that's the OCD but I decided to save up annnndd...

I finally just bought a fucking e-reader. I'm already an hour into reading Cannibalism: a Perfectly Natural History and fuck, wish I'd done this sooner.

Death By Audio - RING-FUZZ

"Ollie [Ollie Ackermann, Death by Audio] made me a custom pedal back when Skywave was ending/APTBS was beginning ... Extreme fuzz with 5-position ring modulator. When the ring was activated, every knob changed its purpose. ...

[5 positions for] 5 different “frequencies.” You could activate just the Ring, and it would be changed with adjustments to the “synth” and volume…but you could also activate the fuzz as well, and then the ring could be adjusted with ANY of the knobs. You’d go from “sorta standard” ring sounds, to what I can only assume are the death rattles of HAL…

All at a volume level of insane proportions (it IS a DBA after all)… "

2nd watch, a few new details:

On the first watch, I was like "of course Owen couldn't go with Maddy the first time, her mom had cancer :(". But this time I caught that Maddy went missing "a few weeks" after Owen's mom died. Owen had nothing left to stay for. Maddy probably waited around for those extra weeks, just in case Owen had a change of heart. And yet,

The first time we see the dress flashback, it's through what seems like a relatively objective perspective. The second time we see it (as they walk to the grave), the memory has taken on the vhs-fuzz and aspect ratio of the pink opaque tapes. The real becomes unreal, an impossible fantasy, "kid stuff"

Happened to see a captioned screening this time, and the Tara from the streaming version is described as "Fake Tara."

The tv guide page Owen finds by the electrical field is for "season 6, episode 1: Escape from the Midnight Realm"

Mr. Melancholy and Maddy's ex friend who accused them of dykery ("like a secret agent sent to ruin my life") were the same actor

All the school hallway motivational posters are thematically relevant, but this time I caught the "the only easy day is yesterday" and "courage: without it, no other virtues matter" ones

You can see the emotional shifts between Owen and Narrator Owen in real time (ie, Owen looking distraught as the firefighters surround Maddy's tv, then dropping the expression and looking coolly into the camera as she starts to narrate again)

There's an interesting recurring thing where audio from the near "future" plays over footage from the "past." ie, we hear Maddy's planetarium monologue, while we watch Owen still walking to the school to meet them. Something about time not working right, something about Owen playing back memories that already happened, something about inevitability and walking down a path with a fixed ending

Spurr Audio - F-201 FET Preamp and Orbit-2 Fuzz

"The pedal’s space-themed design, complete with a miniature globe, adds an extra layer of cosmic charm to its aesthetic. ... Following the success of its predecessor, the Orbit-1, the Orbit-2 Fuzz steps up as the next big thing in space-themed guitar pedals. Its design includes a small screen, reminiscent of vintage spacecraft computers, and the iconic miniature globe."
