I accidentally found the reference image used for the lain soundtrack artwork. but only because and algo just happened to put these two very specific listings next to each other. And the fact that the album was recorded in my home town is making me so uneasy. I’m connected to lain for sure right?

@pfrazee.com I feel like you’d very appreciate this Bluesky shoutout I saw at a Jimmie Vaughan show at antones this week. Soulman Sam says he doesn’t do twitter anymore :)

Saw Jimmie Vaughan last night. Incredible musician. By far the best guitarist I’ve seen live.
I hope life grants me this level of cool and skill in my 70s.

Mannn finding usd in a wallet is a good feel. Wasn’t expecting the hackathon I participated in paying out. My new MacBook is paid off a week into putting it to work! Now to be lazy again…

Still can’t believe this mangled mess of making it up as I went along still works and is useful to me. Does chorus, bit mangling, pitch shifting, and reverb/delay in a sort of dream patch mess of dsp.

Been working on a native app to publish world markup to a SQLite worker powered frontend using 3D web components same as I was doing previously in the wp editor. Should be able to self host your own worlds for less than $5/m (maybe even free?)

Omg big same feels. Spent the last week converting a project that very wasn’t structured for typescript 😬 but it renders and that was a good feeling.

Find me in Portland if you’re one of the few WordPress friends I have on this app!

Driving w/wife listening to Albert Collins
Albert: I got a problem 'bout my wife. Now my wife is number one, my woman is number two.

Me: He is very good with a telecaster...

Next song Brick
Albert: Brick baby! That's what I'm gonna throw upside your head!

Me: He's VERY good with a telecaster...

Oh! So I went down a rabbit hole to land on finding that one. It’s very overlooked in the rat timeline but it has that switch selector at the top that changes the characteristics of the clipping. I find it fits nicely with different combos of my fuzz/drive pedals and can be a default rat when needed
