a used heater

We bought a new (used) heater and it only works on certain wall sockets and only if you let it heat very gradually. ¥40,000 probably in doubt… The model shows promise but this used instance seems to be no good.

For a long time I was very bitter that the people who controlled the means of anybody ever hearing my songs were never gonna play them. They only favored music that I specifically and particularly hated, and I wanted them dead. Suddenly, there was another avenue. I started hearing my stuff coming out of bars and then it started to happen little by little — a movie song here or a TV ad there.
