Trying to Find Weight of the Woods The Hopeful Dark

UPDATE - thanks all for the suggestions. It's purchased and on it's way to a new home shortly.

So naturally, The Hopeful Dark Vinyl is sold out in the DK store. I had the page bookmarked, then I got distracted, came back a couple weeks later and poof.

Anyone have any ideas if this may have been available from other legitimate outlets? (I do mean legitimate; don't want to buy it from an unauthorized reseller who would jack up the price and has no interest in benefitting the musician)

Thanks!

Canadian Diplomat Politely Addresses WNBA Officiating

From the Portland Fire postgame player presser;

Carleton speaks to the mystical officiating Council and nearly drops an f-bomb about the foul parade from the Fire's last preseason game.

Barker wants no part of either of those questions and just goes to town on her gum.

The Fire Have Rekindled a Long-Lost WNBA History in Portland

"Last summer, however, the group behind a new WNBA expansion team in Portland announced that it would call itself the Fire. The news was accompanied by video of the original team: They were taking on not just the name, but the history, too. Sylvia Crawley was entranced. She went through all of the clips—remembering some games that she had forgotten and discovering others that she had been playing back in her mind for some two decades. The 2026 franchise is under different ownership and is operating in a (very) different era of the WNBA. But it has revived the history and resurfaced the archives of the original team, in what has been a delightful, unexpected blessing for retired players such as Crawley.

“It all came rushing back to me. When they started resurrecting everything, it was like, we’re not forgotten,” Crawley says. “Our stuff is still in the archives. It still exists. It’s still out there for people to see.”

“It’s a really cool opportunity,” says Portland forward Bridget Carleton, the team’s first selection in the expansion draft. “Us being a reason to remember those names and remember the people who played here… There’s a lot of new fans in the W, especially right now, so it’s a great opportunity to look back.”

Napheesa Collier says her critique of the WNBA was 'a little dramatic,' but it worked

May 6, 20264:47 AM ET

"The women's pro basketball season begins May 8 without Napheesa Collier, who's recovering from surgery. Yet the Minnesota Lynx star's fingerprints are visible across the league.

Collier played a notable role in negotiating a new contract that increased the players' share of WNBA revenues, just as those revenues have soared. The contract multiplied every player's salary to the point where the lowest-paid players in 2026 will be paid more than the highest-paid in 2025

In an NPR video interview, filmed at the Lynx practice center in Minneapolis, Minn., Collier talked about the new WNBA contract, the upcoming season and her future in basketball."

Cheryl's Euro Demons assemble.

The Electric Slide is addressed. Also amusing is the 21-year old vet giving advice to the 21-year old rookie.

I need to know what Jay said to get that head swing from Cheryl. I enjoyed this far too much. 😄

Reeve and Co. are going to have their coaching chops tested this season. It *will* be entertaining.
