Steve Albini’s letter to Nirvana before recording In Utero is a perfect example of how to explain client fit. Albini knows exactly what he wants to make and is able to clearly outline why you would or would not want to work with him.
There’s a benefit to being able to describe your services in a way that makes people either yell “hell yes” or “no”.
I also loved this choice quote at the end:
If a record takes more than a week to make, somebody’s fucking up.

On a recent podcast, I was asked, “what’s your superpower?” I said it was problem solving. Which is true, but I also happen to be married to the best problem solver I know. We got our shots today thanks to her skills in finding ones that were going to be thrown out. Here’s to hoping that every shot gets us closer to getting out of this mess.
Leaving this here so I can find it in the future. A terrifying thread on what rabies is like.
The TL;DR is that you’ll survive rabies if it’s caught before you’re symptomatic, so if you wake up to find a bat in your room, assume you were bitten and see a doctor. If you’re symptomatic, you won’t survive.
