a small part of the problem with AI is that even if you see good use cases for the technology, focusing on them is a little like saying radiotherapy is going to be great for treating cancer while stores still have radium toothpaste on the shelves www.404media.co/hackers-simp...

Constantly amazed by writers and musicians who will champion creators rights and proper compensation for said creators who then go and post AI slop. Fucking cmon man.

I put my hand in the Bene Gesserit box and it was just cold spaghetti and soggy garlic bread.

Paid a visit to Mr. Link Wray today. Not the most chatty of fellows

tfw you’ve been partying with REO Speedwagon

The Byrds with Hugh Masekela in 1967 at the Mt. Tamalpais festival in Marin County, California

My father-in-law makes armadillo tanks. We were looking at Tarkus together years ago and I asked him what it would cost to build it today. I will never forget his answer… 'We can’t, we don’t know how to do it.'"

Was considering seeing Sugar at Vega here but checked and tickets are 600kr ($100). I understand the logistics of touring etc but fucking come on man lol

happy 50th. & the contact sheet by Roberta Bayley, photos taken against a wall in Albert's Garden, 16 East 2nd St.

New Mutant corner boxes by the great Bill Sienkiewicz #comicsky

From ZigZag, June/July 1970, two ads for/about King Crimson's In The Wake Of Poseidon... Colouring pencils out 😉 @sidsmith.bsky.social

Recorded this day, 1960: Miles' quintet start a European tour with two sets at Olympia Theatre, Paris. An uncompromising John Coltrane (ts) divides the audience to exciting effect. With Wynton Kelly- p, Paul Chambers- b, Jimmy Cobb- d. Essential listening. #jazz #jazzsky #milesdavis

“I’ve come to respect The Police more as I’ve gotten older” - a conservative statement no matter how you capitalize it

Evening listening has moved on to Hällas, whom I’ve very excited to see in a couple weeks. Multiple eras of Genesis function as one!

NP: Most of the studio records are hit or miss for me, but I absolutely love the two live trio records these dudes did. Jammed out organ vibes and somehow not wrecked by having “Get Together” on here.

9/2/26 - nocturn

Good bit from the Mungo Jerry Wikipedia

Listening to some Hawkwind (as I do) and realizing Dave Brock is only a few months younger than Bob Dylan. Kinda blowing my own mind right now

Happy 40th anniversary to an album that I’ve listened to for so long that I’ve genuinely grown to love it…. SEVENTH STAR!

John Coltrane | Ballads Alternative sleeve.

which Malibu Ultraverse character would you like to see on a pog slammer? which member of the Harbingers do you want to see on a hypercolor shirt? what Warriors of Plasm character would you like to see in a direct to video movie kids win as a prize for appearing on Nick Arcade?

Splurged birthday style on a big week of February concerts: Tangerine Dream on the 4th & Hedvig Mollestad Trio on the 6th 😎

World is dreadful but sometimes you can make dinner and listen to Hawkwind

RIP Bob Weir. First concert outside of the first COVID wave was Bobby & Wolf Bros at the Greek in Berkeley. Spotted someone with a Dystopia backpatch

Snagged the 2012 of Beach Boys Smiley Smile from the library and whoa this is a big difference in stereo vs the original mono mix. Much more spacious, less claustrophobic and lofi (honestly selling points for me originally). A new way of hearing my fav BB album!

Ran across downloads for The Misfits “Manny Tapes” boots that recently surfaced. Hearing the electric piano/bass/drums line up tackle the Static Age tracks on vol 2 is a hoot!

In case no one has wondered, the Dylaning has continued, with my primary enjoyment coming from the Time Out Of Mind and beyond catalog (minus the standards rex, still not there yet re repeated listenings) and the song “Shelter From The Storm.”

There are Jah Wobbles everywhere if you have the eyes to see

Took a long walk and listened to all of Rough and Rowdy Ways today for the first time and man now I really wish I had hit up the show. Terrific album, most I’ve enjoyed something in a bit

Happy 45th anniversary to the release of what might push shove etc be my favorite album ever, Sandinista! A bold statement, but every album I’ve loved since high school only has a facet (no metal) so you see where I’m going with that. The Clash in full pomp, Mick at the wheels and Joe matching

So earlier this year I decided I was going to listen to every Dylan album (had heard everything up to Desire at least once, then nothing except Empire Burlesque.). Started strong in the first couple weeks of January, then gave up until recently. Picked back up w/ Planet Waves. 1/2

Thank you Paul & Linda for your “Venus & Mars” closing party on the Queen Mary, as it gave us one of my top live albums ever. Dudes are absolutely locked in, so so good

My favourite Hawkwind line up

Folks it’s Helios Creed time over here again

Can never truly be a grump about Combat Rock cuz Paul’s vocals on “Red Angel Dragnet” are so fucking funny

Switching meds is making me both sad AND angry, definitely time for me to do a deep discographical dive with some artist I sort of like!

Dieter Meier - Cry for Fame www.youtube.com/watch?v=r43h...

Insane that the footage for this finally showed up, Sabbath in 78 with Dave Walker on vocals. I’ve heard the audio before, but the video hammers home how strikingly out of place Walker looks

Morning listening courtesy of the Newport Bootleg Series box. Beautifully blown out tape that sounds like the band is dragging your face across asphalt.

"You're pretty punk, Steve."

If you’re interested in quality TV (cough) perhaps consider Tequila & Bonetti, a 1991 mid-season replacement about a cop who kills a kid in NYC, then moves to SoCal to team up with a jive-talking dog. It’s got Mariska Hargitay! Charles Rocket! And less!

until something real happens there is absolutely no reason to think republicans are distancing itself from trump in any meaningful way. and if it turns out something real DOES happen it should be every democrat with half a brain's job to not let them do that. he is your main guy! you all love him!
