Forgot to stop an activity on my watch and now my fitness log says “Yeah, two and half hours of stretching. Feels right.”

Finally listened to the Mammoth album in an attempt to clean up my 2025 list and it is the damndest thing. Very much in a post-grunge style (second wave butt-rock if I remember the @12tone.nebula.tv video right) but without a lot of the trappings that made a lot of the mid 2000s so embarrassing.

This is such a mess. The HBO Max "remastered" version of The Simpsons reveals that Duff, Duff Lite, and Duff Dry all come from the same pipe. 🙄

Maybe because I wasn’t cognizant for its true omnipresence, but something about the whole Whamageddon thing has never sat right with me.

However I did make an aside to my wife about not wanting to be Dominick’ed on the first day of Christmas music and she has RUN with it.

I named my fists Erik and Satie because you’re about to get eight hundred and forty repeats.
I named my fists John Adams and John Luther Adams because after they take you on a Short Ride in a Fast Machine your ass is gonna Become Ocean
i named my fists Rodgers and Hammerstein cuz theyre always in my own little corner

I am an extremely itinerant cricket Enjoyer, but it is kind of funny watching the announcers of this T20 match try to get through all of sponsor spots before Sri Lanka burns through all their wickets.

The biggest technological revolution of our lifetime is underway and it's not AI:
Official data is in this week, and US solar continues to grow rapidly, with generation up 30% compared to last year!

Felt inevitable we’d get to a place I’ve been inside.

Saw a new Simpsons as I imagine most do nowadays: leaving the TV on to start dinner during the 4th quarter of a football game.

I wish I could my finger on what’s so uncanny about modern episodes. It’s not like it was without jokes but something (rhythm? voice?) is unsettling.

I was able to share with my wife the theory that “Piano Man” is about the title character slowly realizing he took the gig at a gay bar. It did mean listening to the song again but it was worth it.

One of the cruelest tricks society played on creative people was planting the idea that being proud of your work is somehow unseemly and egotistical.

You made a thing! You like it! You SHOULD be proud of it. Brag all you want!

I see we’re doing the thing again today where the world finds out (again) the Internet depends on four companies.

What a day to start with two rediscovered J.S. Bach works and then absolutely nothing else happened.

Played a ska show in western MA at a cool spot with a super hot crowd and one of the bands on the bill were playing their first ever show and they started every song with “Fuck ICE Free Palestine”

Gotta remember to post the Ws

Pizzagate: If you replace the word “hot dog” with “little boy” and “pizza party” with “child sex orgy,” you will see the lengths these elites go to cover up their crimes.

Real elite emails: Send me nude pictures of those 8th graders we abused last weekend post-haste! I am the Ambassador to Turkey.

Hegseth: "We don't need to be a military of beardos anymore. Do you know how many troops claim to be Nordic Pagan? No, suddenly it's become this real fake religious affiliation inside the Pentagon where troops came to be Nordic Pagan so they can grow a beard and nobody challenges them on it."

Coming to grips that I am separated enough from musicology that I wouldn’t even understand whatever the fuck happened at AMS.
