Y’all know what Friday is, right?!? New Terzij de Horde—and all indications say it’s going to be absolutely killer. Make sure it’s on your list and give them a follow if you haven’t: @terzijdehorde.bsky.social .

I think Tidal pays the most money to artists. I use Apple music as it came with my phone plan and the sound quality is much better and I also believe they pay more money to artists than Spotify but not as much as Tidal. But I’m really happy with it. And bandcamp or ampwall for digital purchases.

Once they break in I find docs to be pretty comfortable.

I have no idea why this made it outside my usual circle but since some are asking: the bad choice was that I spent money I shouldn’t have on shoes I didn’t actually need but loved. But thanks for all the extra nice comment!

For a quick second, I thought the Journal of the American Medical Association was talking about extraterrestrial life and was so pumped!

I gotta give the Dems credit: look at what their “shutdown” focus on healthcare is getting these people to publicly say.

Mike Johnson: "If you're a young, pregnant American citizen women who shows up in an ER and you get treated and they pay the hospital less for treating you than some illegal rabble rouser who came in from some South American country to do us harm, that is wrong."

Here’s the work outfit with the new shoes and a close up of the early stages of growing out the sides. I kind of like thinking of them as (eventually) ear tails.

I will never forget driving through Missouri, and at some point leaving “Missouri” and finding myself in a place called “Missurra.”

This is the most accurate depiction of the Midwest to date. Wichita has always felt like the last Midwest city while also being the first plains city.

Six months later, I still don’t know what counts as “cosmic screamo” but this is still a good listen.

I don’t really know what makes something “cosmic screamo” but I’m glad this is in the universe and it’s from Italy so you know it’s good, and leans on that emo side. Radura from 2021. #skramzsky

Abbott would fight back and start an actual civil war between states. That’s why it is impossible for the situations to be reversed: just another extreme example of the Democrats trying to contain the absolute destruction the GOP might unleash, and ending up getting walked all over in the process.

I made a bad choice (even on sale) and am very happy with it.

13 min EP that absolutely destroys so of course it’s on repeat.

Late afternoon, need vegan metalcore from Sweden to power me through. It’s the good stuff: makes you want to stretch it out before throwing down in the pit. Times of Desparation, Vegan Manifesto. From September 2025.

Ameretat is becoming one of my favorite punk albums of the year. Definitely worth a listen, a good mix of styles and some traditional folk instrument use, too.

Oh dear, she thinks she’s in the show The Newsroom. This is gonna be wild to watch unfold. I mean, disheartening and awful, but also, wild.

I’m watching a squirrel and a bunny move about on the ground, sniffing and exploring the wet grass after a hard rain just stopped—and I needed this little moment this morning. I hope y’all find some little bit of beauty, too.
