Dec 24th - Fran Kubelik confronted the married man whom she'd been having an affair with in Bud's apartment. He told her he loved her, despite affairs with other women. He then returned to his family, leaving Fran alone in the apartment.

Lindsey’s Moog Foundation posting is how my dad spent $100 and ended up with a vintage minimoog signed by Todd Rundgren. What weird little noise machines will her Moog Foundation posting bring into YOUR life?
PROFESSIONAL POST: Are you buying gifts for a musician this holiday season? Did you tell yourself in January "this year I'll start playing music" but now it's 12/12 and you haven't started? THERE IS TIME FOR BOTH, with the @bobmoogfoundation.bsky.social reverb shop! reverb.com/shop/the-off...

Telling myself that if the women of CLAMP could draw X/1999 without tablets then I certainly do NOT need one to draw a new year’s card

Started tallying up our 2025 listening this morning and through the end of November we listened to 723 LPs… will we make it to 800 by year end?
In 2024 I tracked every record that @bicyclebicycle.bsky.social listened to together. We listened to music most days of the year & clocked nearly 700 albums. It’s fascinating to me how different your listening habits are when you rely on analog media and not a streaming service.

My commitment to not training AI is so powerful that I held the line and refused to click “I like this image” when my automated Windows log in background featured a cute pika tenderly holding a sprig of wildflowers in his mouth

Made such direct, prolonged eye contact with the driver blocking the crosswalk while waiting to turn right on red that she rolled down her window & said, “Sorry ma’am, happy Thanksgiving,” in the nastiest way. Sorry but I will never feel bad for mean mugging a driver 🤗 Public shame is all we have 🤗🤗

- lyrics about ghosts and/or aliens
- bob singing in a British accent for no clear reason
- at least one part not properly mixed
- worst fucking guitar solo you’ve ever heard
- under a minute

i think if you ride public transit enough you learn that most weird behavior is not dangerous, and conversely i think driving a car teaches you that everyone is trying to kill you at all times

Heard The Feelies on college radio this morning and immediately thought of my uncle’s conspiracy theory that his childhood friend, the late Feelies’ drummer Anton Fier, is not actually dead but “probably just down in South America or something.”

Inspired by the most recent Scorpio Mind (@milkshakemotel.bsky.social) I’m currently listening to EMA’s Past Life Martyred Saints and honestly… this album remains as good as it was on Day One. Going to chase it with another favorite fall record, Mary Timony’s The Golden Dove 😈

Last week one of my best friends was in town and she asked if she could peek inside my closet only to hit me with “What are those!!!” and then fall apart laughing when I told her (with GREAT DIGNITY) that they were a pair of shoes my mother had bought for her Annie Hall Halloween costume. RIP Diane
