My friend Jessica Dessner is currently taking commissions to draw people’s dogs. Here’s my Joku, a Korean Jindo, with orchids. You may know Jessica’s artwork from many of my albums (and as a dancer/choreographer for my stage shows). She’s also a poet, a gardener, a mother, and an enthusiast of Romanesque art. A Renaissance woman. Go support her. And support your local animal shelter. HAPPY NEW YEAR. @jess_dess [Link in bio. This is a repost from Sufjan’s tumblr posted by @asthmatickittyrecords]

This is one of the worst sentences I’ve ever read in the New Yorker. First, there’s a comma splice. Second, none of these descriptions of “the voice” relate. A low rasp suggests obstruction (phlegm). Slithering suggests sliding seamlessly like a snake (a nimble action). Wheezy suggests asthma (not enough air). Choose one. Thirdly, what do leprechaun’s lament? And by sell-by-date, are you referring to Lucky Charms cereal? Because that’s a mixed metaphor if I’ve ever seen one. Someone went out of their way to concoct this hot mess. The copy editor should be fired. Also, did you ask the leprechaun what their pronouns are? [This is a repost from Sufjan’s tumblr posted by @asthmatickittyrecords]
