Errors in the backup process (i.e. I screwed up big time) mean I have now lost five nearly-finished mixes of songs from the last month and a ton of really good guitar parts. Urgh I am soooo sad.

Sometimes it's good to just stop what you're doing and remind yourself that you live on a bonkers planet that occasionally shoots massive bolts of electricity from the sky. I mean, this is certifiably nuts.
I think maybe we should all remind ourselves more often how amazingly crazy this world is.

Kinda like how Sauron made orcs.
I have no artistic skill but could probably replicate this piece pretty well if I felt so inclined - but the art isn’t creating a facsimile but in having that inspiration and expressing a novel idea. AI can only take what already exists and twist it

I think we can all agree that we need to test this theory for real.

The Epstein Files bill grants Attorney General Pam Bondi the authority to "withhold or redact" any material that could endanger "national security" or "jeopardize an active federal investigation."

Epstein: so there is a list, although there isn't a list, but also there is a list and he's definitely not on it, but if he is on the list its a hoax, but there isn't a list.

David Squires delves into... an Iggy Pop rehab escape plan
Some episodes in rock history feel just too far-fetched to be true. But, when Iggy Pop, David Bowie and Dennis Hopper are all involved, they could well be true.

Been car-shopping thanks to some dozey boomer writing off the wife's little runaround. Sent photo of chosen car to wife.
Me: great condition, low mileage, really economical, reasonable price
Wife: oh my god it matches my outfit, buy it!

Funniest part of this is actually him saying "[state your name]" out loud instead of using his name.
