With deference to the genius of David Bowie, here’s Space Oddity, recorded on Station. A last glimpse of the World.

Huge thanks in the making of the video to the talented trio of Emm Gryner, Joe Corcoran and Andrew Tidby, plus Evan Hadfield and all at the CSA.

Meta Monday, Bowie-style.

I can’t wrap my brain around an actual astronaut actually covering the best song about space ever. Chris Hadfield, your Tumblr efforts transcend greatness.

The last time I edited this intensely, with such ferocity, I was finishing magazine school and had four liters of Diet Coke with Lemon coursing through my addled self.

R.I.P., my uber-caffeinated editorial crutch. Now, I have applesauce squeezey pouches and two-day-old mugs of tea to keep me going. Not as useful. Not one bit.

Le ciel tumultueux: Get To Know Your Tumblarians Tuesday: What Do You Collect?:

Between us, my partner and I collect drive-in movie speakers, old microphones, jadeite Fireking plates, Wilendur tablecloths, cheapo hobnail milk glass, and—defacto—Bruder toy trucks. Oh, and 90s women’s magazines from titles that’ve shuttered.
