Bjork's new album is about, “that feeling, post-Trump, when everything’s gone horribly wrong,” she said. “And you escape to an island, and there’s a lot of women there with children, and everybody’s playing flutes, and everybody’s naked, and there’s all these plants you’ve never seen before and all these birds you’ve never heard before, and orchids, and it has that feeling of pioneering into a new world.”

I'll have what she's having.

POTW (Non-Julian category)

How did I not realize that U2, Chris Stapleton and Taylor Swift were all releasing albums on the same day until about 9 o'clock last night?

And I'm supposed to work today?
