It's way past time for single payer Medicare for all.
That's the Minnesota I know.
Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

This Dry January thing were you cough all the time with your nose running like a faucet so you don't get any sleep isn't working for me. I've done it for almost a week, but I don't think I can continue.

Waves sometimes releases a new plug-in for free for a couple days. Curves Resolve is a sidechain smart EQ. The most obvious application is to duck bass guitar when there's a kick, except this just cuts the kick's frequencies out of the bass, instead of ducking the entire instrument.

Whenever we finally develop a cure for toxoplasmosis, we need to require that all politicians get it.

If Donald is cutting off aid to Democratic run states, I don't see any reason why Democrats would vote to continue funding the Federal government.

Amazon warehouse wizardry.

One of these windshield wipers was in the top box. That box and the other wiper were inside the bottom box.

We have to repair the cello because the bottom half came off, but I have a ratchet strap in the trailer so we're going to be ok.

This interview made me rethink a bunch of positions.

Yes, a.i. is a jumped-up autocomplete machine that hallucinates.

So are we.

"If you take capitalism out of government, you get simple public representation. If you take government out of capitalism, you get slavery."

Beautiful work.
Happy birthday to Ahmed Muin, whose music ranks among some of the most vital of the past year. He has a musical message for the New Year, too -- and there's a chance to give to his efforts.

Also, it's worth noting: these productions you hear are finished *on phones*, in the tents.
Ahmed Muin, Palestinian music teacher who turned drones into an anthem - CDM Create Digital Music
Happy birthday today, December 31, to Ahmed Muin Abu Amsha. If any song sums up 2025 and the threat to civilians from drone warfare, it’s his cover of “Sheel Sheel Ya Ajmal Sheel” tuned with the whine...

Tomorrow, Fri 12/11/25, one of my favorite people is hosting a discussion with one of his favorite authors about their book, A Libertarian Walks Into a Bear, at the public library in Bellows Falls, VT. I get to run sound for their talk.

Here's Charlie reading a bit.

OK, so if I was going to pay for one (1) streaming service, out of a sense of duty and wanting to support an industry I enjoy, but fuck Netflix, Disney, Amazon, and the rest of them, what's left? Criterion? They seem to actually be interested in the art and the craft.

One more Bandcamp Friday, when all proceeds go to the musicians. Might I recommend the new Eight Foot Manchild EP? It has many fine attributes.

All proceeds donated to charity.
Metal.
Played on horns.
Christmas tunes.
Funny.
Rocks very hard.
