I’m just a guy. Special Education, dogs, nature, music, records. I’m a cancer survivor, a skeptic, and a believer of science above all. Prefer local DC issues over national politics.
Hi Bluesky. This is Happening. #vinyl #recordsky

The media will both sides actual news (i.e. facts) but print vapid op-eds. This one, with a rage bait title, blames schools, and doesn't even mention all the outside forces that have destroyed public education (i.e. politics, poverty, corporate farming, etc.). www.nytimes.com/2025/11/24/m...

Quick hack when you don’t have pie weights. Use the change jar.

I'm amazed extwitter rolled this feature out, as it's probably the only transparent thing that has happened there since fElon bought it. @bsky.app should develop the same feature, as it's so much more reliable than any verification feature.
X rolled out a new feature overnight showing where accounts are based. This network of “Trump-supporting independent women” that claimed to be “real Americans” are based in Thailand.

The photos were stolen from European models & posts pushed pro-Trump lines while targeting Islam and LGBTQ people.

I’d take it back to allowing former confederates to remain in government that started this.
Pardoning Nixon, moving beyond Watergate, brought us his henchmen for decades. Democrats aren't being magnanimous about letting bygones be bygones. They are being cowards. Holding people you know to account takes bravery, that they lack. So we need to make them do it kicking, dragging, & screaming.
There are going to be prominent Democrats and mainstream media voices who insist that we have to "turn the page" and "forgive and forget" and they should all be roundly ignored, if not mercilessly mocked.

My house needs an emergency colonoscopy. Built in 1948, likely the tree that keeps putting roots into my line is even older.

Whenever I watch Hiccup stretch his rear legs or when he sits like this, I think we may have made a mistake by evolving into bipeds. #dogs #dogsofbkuesky

Velvet Crush, Teenage Symphonies To God (1994)

Another spin for my recently acquired most wanted vinyl. Powerpop just doesn’t get better than this.

EDM wouldn’t exist without Cabaret Voltaire. Pioneers of electronic music. Now playing: Arm of the Lord. #vinyl #recordsky

Syd Straw. Surprise. A great singer songwriter release from an artist who was a collaborator of many great musicians in the 80’s. #vinyl #recordsky

Catherine Wheel. Ferment. One of the best albums of the early-mid 90’s. #vinyl #recordsky

I have time for one album while I get ready. So Barbed Wire Kisses. Fun compilation from the Jesus and Mary Chain. #vinyl #recordsky

Up now. Mask. Probably their least known album. Yet a great one nonetheless. #vinyl #recordsky

Time to travel. In a Blue Mood. Talat Mahmood. Hindi film songs. Found this at a thrift store. I always try to grab things I have no idea what they are. It’s a decent listen. #vinyl #recordsky

Starting today at Maxwell’s Urban Hang Suite. I bought this at a record fair about 12 years ago. Checked that both discs were there and they were so clean. Didn’t realize until I got home that it had 2x Disc 2! Still with it though. #vinyl #recordsky
