@nytimes.com we need to talk about what constitutes "breaking news."

When I check the box for "send notifications for breaking news" I really mean "tell me when the next 9/11 happens."

I never thought the term "aggressively unfunny" made sense until I tried watching Kill Tony last night

This is a song I sing to myself when I see a #cybertruck, so I recorded it.

Songwriters tend to try to make "perfect" records, which means a bunch of autotune, click tracks, and soon (I'm sure) AI.

I wanted to try something else, so I recorded a record in one take. This is me playing acoustic, sometimes screwing up, minimal effects.

actually a lot of innocent people write birthday letters to child sex traffickers in which they repeatedly reference the secrets they share

this is the lyric video for our single. It's about depression and it's big and weird. I like it a lot.

I'm not gonna hashtag the word "depression," though. #healthyselfpromotionlimits #music #indiemusic

Our record "maybe tomorrow" is about grief, and mentioning grief seems to have struck a chord with a lot of folks.

In case anyone's interested, I've got a big piece here about art and depression. I tried to avoid making it too heavy, so there's also a lot of stuff about Sisqo and toe fungus.
Art and Depression. - John Krane's Stuff
Lots of Sisqo in this for an essay about suicide.

Well, now I have 56 followers and a bunch of nice, supportive feedback from strangers.

This is a fine morning. Thank you folks.
I have a total of 16 followers on here. I hope that at least 8 of you will check out this album I just completed with my friends.

It's about grief, and it took us a long time to write and record it.

"provocative views on race" is a crazy way to describe overt racism, @nytimes.com

"what can beige do to be a more exciting color?"
Joe Scarborough asks, "why is it that in the Democratic Party, the three most compelling figures" have been "the mayoral candidate [Zohran Mamdani], Bernie Sanders and AOC"?

"Why can't moderate Democrats...make that same compelling message?"

sometimes I'm like "we can move past printed poetry as a medium, we've sort of done everything with it," and then something like this comes along

(actually I never think that about printed poetry, that would be a silly thing to think, I'm just trying to get you to look at this and appreciate it)

If you have trouble understanding the difference between liberals and leftists, just remember that liberals are the ones that write shit like this.

"Sure, we now all agree that racism was wrong and homophobia was wrong, and religious persecution was wrong and so was slavery, and marijuana turned out to be okay and prohibition was a bust, but I really think the conservatives figured it out this time."
