Kyle E. Miller's "The Idiot’s Garden" is a poetic postapocalyptic novel. We spoke to the Ypsilanti-based author about his book, which takes place in a time where the oceans have boiled, whales consume power lines, & living things possess abilities beyond our world.      pulp.aadl.org/node/664636

FUN ALBUM ANNOUNCEMENT POST! In Hunt for the Eternal Vibe will be published on June 27th! While maybe not actually, spiritually this is the first Lantern Lens album to me as it represents what I want my 'main' music to sound like. I'm very proud of what I recorded here and I'm excited to release it!

snowy mountain scene with a town and dry field in front of it on a sunny daytrees with autumn-colored leaved under a cloudy, blue skypear tree blossoming in a backyard with a cloud enrobed mountain in the backgroundtext reading “I think the purpose of life is to find happiness, to find those few true, enveloping pockets of sunshine that keeps your core warm. It is, quite plainly, essential. Happiness is the substance that melts into your blood and turns it golden. It is the spirit that paints your vision a lively shade and douses your limbs with electricity. You drink it and are overcome with a fullness as it fizzes little ecstasies. Happiness is the one truth worth following. Happiness is the only god of many crawling this earth that is worth praise.”

Considering the continued criminalization of masks, rampant spread of covid & other viruses (amidst erosion of vaccine access), dangerous AQI from wildfires, increasing state surveillance, & persistent use of chemical weapons by cops, now is a great time to commit to masking again if you've stopped.
