i'm mostly not out here just to repost memes, but this is in fact a photograph of me soooo

This.

Last minute decision... Going to see Cleo Sol tomorrow at the Hollywood Bowl!

Apparently today is #MusiciansDay 🎉 I've had the pleasure of playing various instruments and singing harmonies with the ever-shape-shifting @societyofrockets.bandcamp.com for 25 years. Check us out! http://societyofrockets.org

Finally listened to the new Darkside album from start to finish and my smile got wider with every track. So good. https://darkside.bandcamp.com/album/nothing #newMusic

I looked through ALL crew rosters post shuttle program & I can say with about 95% confidence that YES this is the FIRST time two women have been in control of a space vehicle in a crewed environment. No mention in the #NASA news release. So let's celebrate Cmdr. Anne McClain & Pilot Nichole Ayers!

wrote a poem this morning it's called DJ Tiësto's St Paul Set Summer 2025

Only takes 23 Senate Democrats to remove Chuck Schumer from leadership and replace him with someone willing to fight

Here is the only real State of the Union speech worth watching. www.youtube.com/live/QlrQKv1...

Growing up, Ash Wednesday was the only Catholic holiday I could get behind because it's the only one that keeps it real: You are dust, and always will be.

I have warned about the rightwing attack on empathy. It is as dangerous as any attack on democracy. It is an attack on our humanity. Once you turn off empathy you can do anything. It will accelerate in Musks’ hands. open.substack.com/pub/sherrily...

old Soviet joke for our times: Guy stops by the newsstand every day, scans the front page, doesn’t buy the paper. One day the vendor asks what he’s up to. Guy says: “looking for an obituary.” Vendor says “those are towards the back of the paper, comrade.” Guy says: “not the one I’m looking for.”

American Analog Set tonight in SF was sublime, heavy on tracks from Fireworks and Know By Heart, Ben Gibbard joined for Choir Vandals & they closed with We're Computerizing... Slowcore nostalgia at it's finest.

In a perfect metaphor for our current moment, we're about to sink the SS United States to the bottom of the Gulf of America (sic) https://www.jalopnik.com/1797716/last-fastest-ocean-liner-starts-its-final-voyage-bottom-ocean/

Musk's whole deal is to pretend that no one knew how government bureaucracy worked before, like it was this big mystery box, and it's exactly that combo of stupidity and arrogance that pervades silicon valley and leads to them reinventing a city bus and thinking they're Isaac Newton

I'm buying one because it's true.

Look I agree that Elon Musk appears to be on a lot of drugs every time he appears in public. That's not very interesting to me. I'm more interested in how many drugs he can do at once. I think he could probably do more than anyone ever. I bet he could take way more than the doctors say is safe.

It feels like no one should have to say this, and yet we are in a situation where it needs to be said, very loudly and clearly, before it’s too late to do anything about it: The United States is not a startup. If you run it like one, it will break. 🔗 www.wired.com/story/the-us...

I bet he's starting with Fluffy Little Clouds

'A minimalist post rock masterpiece that may have struggled to be heard in 1995 – blotted out by both the brouhaha of Britpop – but which sounds today like a visionary blueprint for generations of bands to come.' #Slowdive’s Pygmalion at 30 buff.ly/3EmlR1A

The central premise of Trumpism is that white guys are inherently the most capable and qualified people for any meaningful position. As a white guy who spends a lot of time with white guys, I can assure everyone that premise is fundamentally wrong

Oh, so thats what's happening in the USA right now
