Unreal stage design for SOME Fest this year.

Godspeed You! Black Emperor took all their music off Spotify, and I hope everyone else does too 💗

Why. Whyyyy is Apple Mail on MacOS so bad? I feel like I give it another chance every couple of years, and it persistently loses connections, can't display some messages, and crashes constantly.

Reminder to send this to every new dad you know.

It took me 6 months of following @bencollins.bsky.social to get the 'Tim Onion' joke.

Forever grateful to @pile.bsky.social for playing our backyard. The new songs are sooo goood.

Having myself a moment over here, holy shit. @pile.bsky.social

Such an incredible, succinct discussion of why harm reduction works! @onequickthingpod.bsky.social

NOT NEXT WEEK, THE WEEK AFTER, IT'S A TUESDAY

It's become clear that this administration is just a protracted war on anybody who's read a book without pictures in it. It's a miracle we're all still getting up and going to work every morning. The psychological drain is the point, and I'm increasingly grateful to the people who are still decent.

Each month I do a dive into my film archive and select a few photographs to highlight using a random number generator. I had a lot of fun with the poll in this one:

I’ll keep beating this drum until it breaks or I do. If we continue to choose convenience, cognitive offloading, and Silicon Valley's latest parlor tricks in our daily lives, we step further away from our humanness, exposing AI's direct ties to fascism, and any chance of justice or liberation.

My cartoon in this weeks @newyorker.com

"When every life is worth saving, every toehold matters." - @andreapitzer.bsky.social

When I was a newborn I saved up and bought my own basket. We all did. This generation just wants a handout

so we should definitely distribute this to grade schoolers with developing brains, is what I'm hearing

One of my favorite 4×5 images ended up in this edition of Archive Dive. Please consider a paid subscription to the newsletter to get access to these monthly photo drops where I use a random number generator to pick from 15+ years of film!

It's suspicious that all the "BlueSky is dying" talk coincides with right-wing and centrist talking heads crying and whining about not being beloved here. I can't imagine why they would have an interest in spreading a narrative that this place is uninhabited 🙃

Check out Emily and Marissa's interview with Cordy and Anthony from @hrcnewengland.bsky.social! It's a great episode!

Hey everyone! Quick announcement of where we will be this month. We are attending Windham, Nashua, and Manchester pride this year. We hope to see you there for a chance to chat, share zines and stickers, and explore liberation. See you soon!

My latest newsletter about lots of different things.

Ditch Spotify, go to local shows, buy merch, make friends. Don’t invite a morsel of this garbage into your life.

OpenAI has always been for-prophet. Let's not fall for more of the evangelism of Silicon Valley please. Enough with this pseudo-religious bullshit - they're not coming to save us.

🪕 Playing a show at Auspicious Brew in Dover on Thursday! 🎻

Babe wake up, the new @pile.bsky.social record artwork is film photography from Mark Lapriore

My favorite thing about doing the Archive Dive series is it allows me to revisit forgotten images that were overlooked at the time or just didn’t hold a significance in the moment they were processed. There are a couple in this edition that I really love and was happy to dig up again!

I KNEW that sounded familiar!

I highly recommend being weird for the amusement of random people you'll never meet. This one's headed to the Darn Tough Warranty Department.

Movie you’ve watched more than six times using gifs. (“Hard mode” no Star Wars, Star Trek, LOTR or Ghibli)

Happy to report getting film hand-checked at the airport is still a thing in 2025.

Your periodic reminder that one way to think about privilege is: who's allowed to make mistakes?
