My friend's partner died unexpectedly last week, she was younger than I am. I'm helping my friend with probate and let this be a reminder to you: MAKE A WILL. DESIGNATE BENEFICIARIES. PUT REAL ESTATE IN A TRUST. DO NOT SHARE DEBT WITH YOUR PARTNER.

I don't stay in bed all day because I'm depressed. I stay in bed because that's the only time I'm NOT depressed.

A cool effect of being Fuck You 50 is no one gives you shit when you leave early for being "tired." That's always in your back pocket and people just accept it when you're 50. I get "tired" and leave things all the time and there's nothing they can say cuz I'm 50.

I sometimes wish I was a painter because they know what they're making when they start. When I sit down to write music, I have no idea what's going to come out. I made this.

I'm going to a munch this weekend and the topic is about how to build community in the kink scene. I have some very specific ideas but judging from all the men (and only men) who have RSVP'd, they're not going to like them.

50 is the new fuck you. 😄

Happy Easter! My heart is filled with chocolate joy celebrating the resurrection of our lord the Easter Bunny. #christian

Good news! There are more than 3 clubs in town! I just had to look a little more underground. Found a nice little speakeasy. 😎

Happy 2 year aniversario to me! I've lived in Spain for 2 years as of today! 🎉 #immigrant

Meet your heroes. They may surprise you, they may even save your life.

More of you need to play Lost Records: Bloom & Rage, and it shows

The 3 cannabis clubs in my little Spanish town got raided last week. As someone who was on medicinal weed in the US, who's detoxing from SSRIs, this is a serious blow to my mental health. I'm trying not to claw my skin off. I don't know if they're going to reopen and I'm close to panicking.

Remember how half the internet lost their collective minds when they made another Ghostbusters with a new cast? Where's that level of outrage over the HP redo?

Imagine if George Lucas decided it would be a good idea to make the OG Star Wars again. But with new actors and this time on HBO, otherwise exactly the same. Now imagine George was also a bigotted POS. Would there be any reason under the sun to watch it?

It's nice to see reason and bodily autonomy win over religious fanaticism for a change. It's a very sad situation, but she finally found the peace she needed. (Her catholic parents and their lawyers can get fuxked.) apnews.com/article/spai...

"I wish that I'd died before I got old" is probably the truest lyric I've ever written and I was maybe 32 when I wrote it. 😞

My landlady dropped by and she mentioned that she broke 2 mirrors in 2 days so she now has 14 years bad luck. I told her she can reverse that by feeling 2 stray animals. She took me very seriously! So I think 2 cats or dogs are going to get fed today!

Happy #AtheistDay. Fuck your god. And if your god has a problem with that, they can come say it to my face.

Fun fact: Every time you shuffle a deck of cards, that exact order of cards has likely never happened before. There are 8x10 to the 67th power ways to sort a deck of cards. That’s an 8 followed by 67 zeros. That's more than the number of atoms on earth. More than the number of stars in the sky.

I have a migraine but I also have a Sadie so it's not so bad. #catsofbluesky

Tonight I saw a Depeche Mode, The Cure, amd U2 cover band. Same musicians, three shows. They nailed them all.

The only transphobia I've experienced in the world has been from americans. Just now one tourist said "you're a man" to me a kept walking. I DGAF about his opinion, but it makes me angry that dumb americans go abroad and spread their ignorance and hatred. Stay TF home if you can't STFU.

Fuuuuck I'm tired of depression.

Seriously friends, you want to stream this and then you'll want to own it. Just click and preview "Crush Story" and try not to fall in love with it. It's better than love. It's Too Much Joy. The greatest band you've forgotten about.

Well, I tried to move. But apparently I'm a really good renter because my landlady agreed to match the rent of anyplace I wanted to move to. So even though I found a nice new flat, I couldn't turn down such a kind and generous offer. Tbh, I'm relieved. I didn't want to move.

Did you ever write music that is so good that you don't feel like you can do justice to it lyrically?

So long, bitches!

Probably worth mentioning that any time you play Too Much Joy's most popular album online, all the royalties (such as they are) go directly to the band, as the rights reverted to us yesterday. Expanded edition coming latere this year...

Dang it, I simultanously got the new flat AND my landlady then told me she wouldn't raise my rent in order to keep me. I hate it when I get everything I want.

If you think "affordability" is a "buzzword" then you can fuxk yourself right up your tiny, puckered little bleached asshole.

It took 2 years but I've starting mispronouncing my own name because it's apparently impossible to say with a Spanish tongue.

I might have found my new apartment. It's bigger and cheaper, more central, top floor in a beautiful historic building in the historic Albaicin. The only thing making me hesitate is having to give up the view. If I do move, I'll post a pic. It's amazing but gives away exactly where I live.

This really makes me feel like puking. Nothing like appealing to a mythical diety to justify murder. Christianity on full display in all its vile and abhorrent nature and people still think it's a peaceful ideology. #atheism

There's a gentleman in the plaza who will do your fade for you. #España

There's a club here that does a lesbian 80s night, they call it San Junipero. But Spain being Spain, it starts at midnight. I'm starting to think it's a conspiracy to keep the olds like me out.

One thing I miss about being employed is playing hooky from work.

Wow, as of today I've been retired for 2 years. Where did the time go?

Sadie is officially fungus free! The vet said she no longer has live bacteria on her skin, she just has patches of it flaking off now (and taking her fur with it.) Her ears are finally clean, too. She's clearly feeling a lot better and she gives me hugs all the time now. 🥹 #catsofbluesky

I'm almost repulsed when someone shows any interest in me. #introvert

Scammy muthaforka didn't see me coming. I know what a formulario de denuncion is and how to use it. And I brought screenshots. 💥

Well the apartment was decided for me. The agency charges the renter an agency fee, which is illegal. I'm not paying 700€ for some guy to have unlocked the flat one time.

I think I found a new apartment. That is, it's mine if I want it. I'm trying to talk myself into it.

Yay. I get to start flat shopping tomorrow. I don't want to but my rent just went up and the dollar keeps tanking so I have to find someplace cheaper. I'll miss this flat.

I had to have an honest convo with my doctor. I could spend my whole life trying to avoid what might kill me, or I could simply live my life understanding that some thing will eventually kill me. I chose the latter. Even as those things have caught up with me, I lived. My way, my life, zero regrets.

Me, turning down every offer of socializing that comes my way. Also me, sitting at home wondering why I'm always alone. #introvert

My friend just (like an hour ago) gave birth and I'm happy she and the baby are healthy, but more than ever I'm finding it hard to be happy about children being born into this world.

I wanted to spice up my marimo environment so I wrote a simple code to slowly change the lighting on a Circuit Playground from @adafruit.com and put it in a mustard jar lid. Marimo mood lighting. #marimo

I'm still bummed that maxheadroom.com is gone. I'm not sure when it came online but it's been there FOREVER. It had everything Max in one place, all collected and maintained by one superfan. It was a relic from the Old Internet but it was made with a lot of love and lived 20 minutes into the future.

Please enjoy this free download of a cover I made of Ric Ocasek's "This Side of Paradise." Ever since I was a kid, I've wanted to try a sound-for-sound recreation of it and this is that result. It's not perfect, but I'm happy with it. #synths #ricocasek soundsofash.bandcamp.com/track/this-s...

Look at Sadie's toe beans! She has herpes, calicivirus, mycoplasma and bordetella. Yesterday her last 3 teeth were removed & she's a LOT more comfy. She's gonna be ok but she's got a month of meds and treatment ahead. I hate to ask for money but I could really use some help. wise.com/pay/me/aisli...
