Tuckpointing advice

Looking for some repointing/tuckpointing advice here from redditors. I’m surprised with the amount of conflicting advice I’m getting in my research so I’m hoping this is straightforward but go easy on me because I’m new to this. My old Detroit house is from 1925. And as you can see in my pictures there are multiple areas of my house where the mortar has major gaps, or the current mortar is turning to dust and is leaving piles on the ground under it. I’ve only been the homeowner for a few years but it looks like the previous owner tried to tuck point themselves using a harder mortar which I know isn’t the best. From here I’m trying to determine a few things,

Should I try to do this myself or hire this out? If this is something that can be DIY, what kind of mortar mix should I use?

How much of the old
Mortar do I need to remove? Is it only the loose and dusty sections? And how deep do I remove?

Compared to my never ending list of house projects, what’s the urgency here verses something like attic insulation.

Surprised with press run

When I heard the new album was coming out I never would have thought the press around the album would be so focused on the tape leak. I understand the writing of the record may have brought it out, but for in every interview for IBA, hes letting these interviews bring all that up again? I feel like the budden was part of the THIB promo time, and other interviews during that time he was getting asked to speak on it. Most artists would have their PR teams shut those questions. down. Just surprised it’s getting brought up again, seems like lazy research on the interviewers part.

Blue chips 2

With BC1 and Rare chandeliers on streaming, I’m wondering about BC2. Is it safe to say with the Phil Collins and Tracy Chapman beats it could never clear to Spotify? Could anyone tel me if it’s on other DSPs?

Watchin’ The Moves

Really enjoying Philly's Been Good to me. Giving it sometime to grow on me so still too early to rate it against his others. Safe to say 99bpm is already a stone cold classic KV song and I hope he opens the tour with this. Play that song as loud as you can. “TWENTY FOURTAINNNN”!

Holiday OKV and Rock of Stone were getting less spins last weekend but almost a week out and I keep going back to those and they could also be up there as some of the best on the album. Another jammer LP from Kurt has been cemented so all is good.

But what PBGTM did do, is make me realize how solid a record (Watch My Moves) is. Now that’s it’s not his newest full length, I feel like I didn’t appreciate how perfect an album it is, and it’s easily my favorite (for now). I don’t know if you can deliver a more concise record that sums up Kurt Vile and the styles he brings to the table. It has that loose feel (that got even looser on PBGTM) on songs like Hey Like A Child. Cool Water would have easily been a hit if it came out in 1975 by Waylon or Willie but it could also fit right in on Wakin on a Pretty Daze.

Mount Airy Hill is thee KV song for me. It's the slide guitar and the way he delivers the lyrics that really make it. Throw in a long spacey jams, a great Springsteen cover, and then droning instrumentals, and you've basically got everything that makes KV's music special wrapped up in one release. If you slept on this one when it came out or you're just getting into Kurt now after the new album it's absolutely worth revisiting.

Help with Alcohol addiction

I have a friend who is in a dark place with drinking, he is open to help and rehab but I'm having a hard time finding a place that seems like a good fit for him. Does anyone have any recommendations on alcohol counselors or rehab centers?
