Happy Bandcamp Friday to those who celebrate! #fuckspotify

Sports pet peeve: fans who wave their arms in the universal “make noise” gesture but don’t make any noise themselves.

@danagould.bsky.social delivered yet another exquisitely written and performed standup set last night at the Punch Line SF. Outrageous, thoughtful, intimate, abrasive, hilarious. Dana is the GOAT of standup!

Songs and stories with Thomas Dolby at Bimbo’s in SF - tremendous!

Mice Parade are their own thing. It’s a good thing. youtu.be/sdXiOEWJmjs?...

The President threatened to kill members of Congress who said the military should disobey illegal orders, in case you were on the fence about the whole fascist/non-fascist thing…

According to Fox News, if you are a racist Young Republican you are still a "kid" when you are 34, but if you are an Epstein victim, you are an adult when you're 15.

The modern ultra-connected workplace results in a state of relentless emergency. Unsustainable.

It was Patti Smith all along…

I had to make a moral wreck of myself at my job today. Not sure it was worth it…

Devo was, and continues to be, correct.

Just got a recurring 7am Monday morning meeting for the rest of the year, which I consider a hate crime.

Watched the Lilith Fair doc, which is terrific, but somehow reminded me of this staggering performance by Sheryl Crow from the “Tribute to Heroes” broadcast. The song is called “Safe and Sound.” Full heartbreak territory: youtu.be/dR6svHAtlCw?...

What’s 60 years old and got a birthday shout out from Robert Fucking Fripp (thanks to @zakyfarms.bsky.social )? ME!

Did Usha Vance welcome JD home with open arms after his night onstage at TPUSA bashing immigrants, wishing she’d convert to Christianity, and dry-humping Erica Kirk?

I love how insurance companies portray themselves as these whimsical neighbors, just trying to help, instead of the unimaginably predatory ghouls they are.

Dear Bob Fitzgerald: it is not necessary to fill every single millisecond of a Warriors broadcast with over-amped jabbering. Shut the fuck up, man! Jeezis!

What a loss! www.nytimes.com/2025/10/14/a...

Every accusation is a confession.

Diane Keaton in Annie Hall may be my favorite acting performance of all time. RIP

Football is better when there’s a band.

The President of the United States thinks habeas corpus is a person.

Most of the people who support the invocation of martial law cannot spell martial law.

The Yankees loss reminds me of the time Trump went to Don Jr’s dorm to take him to a game. Jr wore a jersey, Trump knocked him to the ground and said “put on a suit and meet me outside.” BTW: Jr’s nickname was Diaper Don cuz he got drunk and pissed himself so often. www.complex.com/life/a/eliza...

Utterly massive, gorgeous record from Shiner. They’re touring as we speak, and having seen them a couple times I can assure you it’s worth the effort to go see them: shinerkc.bandcamp.com/album/believ...

Key takeaway from Pam Bondi’s Senate testimony: she’s a liar and a fraud.

A different Gil Scott Heron song comes true every day.

Is there a point at which the Niners just run out of guys?

Decently strong quake (4.6) essentially under my house just now.

“When you keep trading people for drugs, all you end up with is the drugs.” - AKA Charlie Sheen

James Baldwin was punk as fuck.

For some reason I keep thinking about the old Spearhead lyric about Oklahoma City: “I remember the time in Oklahoma, you tried to blame an Arab but the whitey was the bomber…” youtu.be/kpgBqHj3tLM?...

A different Crass song comes true every day.

Sunny Day Real Estate massive three guitar attack - and it’s not like their sound was “thin” with two guitars!

FWIW: One of Charlie Kirk’s oft-repeated tropes in defense of unlimited gun ownership was that “some deaths are worth it.” Sensible gun reform now!

Kinda momentous: Kid #1 graduated in June, found a job in her field, and just moved out on her own. Holy shit: I’m OLD!

Deftones have done it again. They don’t miss.

David J (Bauhaus, Love and Rockets) in a very intimate setting (#ivyroom #albany)

A lawless incubus was just awarded a lifetime federal judgeship, in case anybody’s interested.

Conan learning to do the Haka on “Conan Must Go” is pretty damn funny.

Temper your glee over the long, long overdue MAGA awakening (kinda) over the Epstein business with the fact that the underlying theme is: billionaire men preying on young girls for sport. And one of the men is currently President of the United States.

A crisis of our age is the gulf between people who think they’re involved in things when they’re not, and people who think they’re not involved in things, when they are.

Calling this a war crime doesn’t make you anti-Semitic: bbc.com/news/article...

As unidentified masked men kidnap and traffic citizens to concentration camps and invade US cities I keep asking myself why the 3%ers and Oath Keepers aren’t front and center opposing them. Then I remember: they ARE them.

I’m watching a Major League Baseball game being played at a mini golf course (A’s - Giants).

Privileged to see Chicago punk rock legends Pegboy play a beautiful and epic show at Gilman Street.

If hell is real, Jimmy Swaggart will rot there for eternity. Good riddance.

So…who IS a citizen?
