I think a fresh intro is due: I live in the PNW, obsessed with local and alternative/DIY music of nearly any genre (but especially #emo, #mathrock, #punk, #ska, #ska-punk). Nerd. Many fandoms but especially #StarTrek and #FriendsOfDeSoto. "Possibly the cutest rodent" according to Archie McPhee.
Ordering new business cards for the first time in 6 years I think. Time to find some free lunch contest fishbowls to enter

This week's streams had more than a few trips to the past for Game Theory (1987), Trotsky Icepick (1988), The Walkabouts (1988), and Beat Happening (1989). And favs from the past few years, and some new releases. And LOTS from The Beths.

This is the hardest I have seen any member of Congress work to try and address transphobia in Congress, and her ability to get nearly all Democratic lawmakers to sign onto this letter is something any first would applaud
House Dems unite to tell GOP to stop "demonizing" trans people with "dehumanizing" slurs - LGBTQ Nation
Rep. Nancy Mace's "tra**y, tra**y, tra**y!" tirade is just one example.

I had a fun time sitting down with Allison at Seattle Met to talk about my time at Bartell's and some of the fun items we brought in (several other Category Managers too- not just me!). I miss that wonderful chain a lot.

On the plus side, maybe Sam Darnold got a season's worth of picks out of his system in one game. #Seahawks

Finally listening to the new debut lp from Chokecherry and it's every bit as good as I expected. Can't wait to catch them live again. Pic from Freakout Fest '23

The newest Beths lp sounds like evolved in ways relative to their earlier works in much the same way the newest Deep See Diver lp does, and I for one, would like to see them on a double-bill.

Whelp. But I'm seeing them live again tonight, and it's such a great record, and I can always listen to that stack of new vinyl tomorrow and...

My main goal tomorrow is to play as much of my backlog of new vinyl as I can before I have to leave for the Beths concert. Unfortunately, that also means I have to finally take the new Beths lp off the turntable.

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

From this minister's op-ed: "People wanting to experience God are more likely to meet the Divine trying to shut down the Broadview, Illinois, ICE facility than we ever were in church...God does not live in our houses of worship, but...with those who are bearing the brunt of cruelty in this moment."

Another eclectic mix of old and new. I'm falling back into a heavy Game Theory mode. Great new ones in here from Dazy, Florence + The Machine, Into It. Over It, Tomo Nakayama, Emi Pop, Bartees Strange, & King Youngblood all there this week.

Since so many #FriendsOfDeSoto watched the Star Trek TOS episode Miri this past week for the @greatesttrek.com pod, it's time to share my favorite fan-made video for Game Theory's "One More For Saint Michael" that draws heavily from this episode visually & in the song. Enjoy

Sitting with your pockets full of fists
And you're staring at your wrists
And your shoulders, and they're aching so bad
Now they're cutting care
Now they're talking pay cut
No one better dare
Ask you how your day was

I honestly wasn't sure I could mentally handle John Richards' annual death & music show this morning on KEXP but so glad I did. It's really excellent.

91 votes separate the candidates. 91!!! (For you kids, that's 24 more than 67). It has never been more important to make sure your vote counted in the Seattle Mayoral election! It's quick and easy to check, and quick and easy to fix if there's an issue! ⬇️⬇️⬇️
HEY! Did you vote for the Mayor of Seattle and think that you're DONE with this election already? Well, I'm here to tell you you're NOT! There's 1,794 ballots from Seattle alone that aren't counted due to signature issues! But good news: you can check and FIX IT if it's you!

SEATTLE!!!

We’ve now taken the lead by 91 votes! 🤯 This thing is certainly not over! Over 1,000 ballots have been challenged, so if you haven’t tracked your ballot yet get on it! Our trusty volunteers have been working hard to "cure" ballots so they count! We're so close!
