To whoever has been trying to hack into my Microsoft account:

How many times are you going to send an email with verification numbers to my email before you realize it isn't working?

P.S. I changed the email associated with that account.

Starting Saturday morning with a little @gangstagrass.bsky.social. I’ve got it on vinyl, too, but wanted to give the CD player a little love today #nowplaying

From a journalist friend: Just spreading the word. The CDC is purging data, so people should archive their favorite CDC datasets today, namely ones around race/ethnic diversity, LGBTQ, and reproductive health. Also health data involving climate. The youth risk behavior survey has already gone down.

Musk is the culmination of a slow-moving corporate coup by the oligarch class that has been decades in the making. But that doesn't change the fact that this marks a new and unspeakably dangerous chapter.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Needed a little Beastie Boys when I got home. The CD spins a little faster than a record.

I feel like it’s the best time to vote with our wallets. Money is only going to get tighter. Spend it at companies who don’t hate it hate that you exist.

So, Garmin bricked my Epix Pro 2 smartwatch along with everyone else's. 2025 has really been a year of disappointment.

You know who didn't perform for the orange man's inauguration? Chuck D.

I think the most shocking thing about all these Trump executive orders is that they're all straight out of Project 2025.

Not shocking for us of course because WE FUCKING SAID THAT BEFORE ALL OF THIS SHIT but shocking for some people probably.

I really need to stop shopping to reduce my anxiety about the future of my country. Anyway, these two came in the mail today:

I just ordered an orange label Chicago II from a seller on Discogs. Will I get ripped off? Time will tell.

My patience and tolerance for BS, normally thin, is nearly non-existent. I need more cat and stereo/turntable pics and fewer news headlines or my brain is going to ooze out of my ears.

In case you weren't paying attention, the orange one is waiting for the first sign of violence he can blame on the opposition as an escuse to push his own Reichstagsbrandverordnung followed swiftly by Gesetz zur Behebung der Not von Volk und Reich and then build the camps.

The all mighty algorithm has decided to bless my page with cat pics. This is what the internet was created for.

Listening to a little Chicago Transit Authority now that I’m home from work. First time listening to the vinyl with my new cartridge.

I could listen to this all day. Holy moly.

My Reddit home page is full of subreddits banning all twitter links (and some are banning META). I don’t know why this brings me so much joy today.

If someone wants to be part of the solution and work towards a better (non-fascist) future but don’t feel like they can give up the conveniences provided by the oligarchs (Facebook, Amazon, etc), is that person a hypocrite?

Or is convenience the prison they’ve already trapped us in?

Summoning all music people on this here butterfly place. Recommend me some contemporary groups in the neo-soul, funk, R&B style like Black Pumas, Leon Bridges or The Dip.

This record came today (along with Eels). Billie Eilish is one of my favorite young artists. Most of the people I listen to are no longer young.
