I'm an "A.i." abolitionist. No consumer-facing LLMs or generative "A.i." in anything. Sure, machine learning in science and a few other limited applications is fine. But consumer-facing LLMs and generative "A.i." that are based on theft, push disinfo, and can be manipulated by billionaires? No.

Happy BruceJimi Eve!

taking drugs to make prompts to take drugs to

intro to Soundgarden's "4th Of July" omg just knowing someone (Kim) made that sound once, let alone that I can listen to it whenever I want, is such a miracle

wd watch a Lou Reed biopic ONLY if they cast him as Jon Bernthal think about it really

Well don't I feel stupid

flipping through Bruce Lee: Artist Of Life and when he says like 'punches & kicks are tools to destroy your ego' subbing in 'notes & chords are tools to destroy your ego' it's not a perfect match cos after all who's your "opponent" in music (I have theories) but, there's a lot there

Goodbye Jimmy Cliff. His vocal in this 1976 SNL performance, good lord---one of the best singers of his generation, of any generation. vimeo.com/155135842

Oh no, Jimmy Cliff crossed the final river, comforting myself with this epic live version. youtu.be/6utjK46tZPU

finally watched the Jeff Buckley doc. there's a lot to love. but they really do make it like the Sweetheart album never happened. Verlaine tracked & mixed. it rocks. 🙏💕💔🌈

Rocker Girl Life: looking through the CD bag stuffed under the back seat of the car, hoping to find my weed box. it wasn't there but I found a "clean" pair of underwear and some black nail polish. winning!

best snark I've maybe ever read: "I wanted to spank his tailor."

idk if I'm a particular fan of McBride but she could get a lot less shit than she does when at least half our politicians are among the most despicable humans on the planet

Oregon has a solution.

listening to Aerosmith ROCKS (1976) & somehow I had never previously clocked that this came out in 1976... was NOT aware that they made music this heavy in 1976!

have seen way too many of them to not believe in them 🤷‍♀️

just misread emt as ent

wasn't sure what to expect from Holly George-Warren's JANIS book but ya know it's really good 💕💔

I have a trans friend I met through recreational martial arts. Some gyms and orgs deferred to the IOC's stance when deciding whether or not to allow her to participate. This ban has the potential to harm and exclude trans women at every level of athletics.

** sore legs from jumping around to Aerosmith "Live Bootleg" all yesterday afternoon

love 58s, can't stand 57s 🤷‍♀️ who knows why. beta 58s probably better tho my ears prefer the standard. & with all due respect to pretty much every sensible engineer out there today... shove em right up against the speaker. an inch from the surface.

"Christmas With The Alien" — light-years from home, the crew of a Weyland-Yutani star freighter awakes from hyperspace in time to begin preparations for a lonely-yet-heartfelt holiday celebration in the deepest depths of outerest space. Shenanigans ensue.

have we had this conversation before? I'm sorry, I no longer remember anything. I'm not even listening to what I'm saying right now. thanks!

we basically did this but there was a twist in that we thought we were a straight couple at the time 🤷‍♀️ sneakin in under the wire etc

Today is the 32nd anniversary of Nirvana's epochal appearance on "Unplugged." Here's one of the passages about that show from my book _The Amplified Come as You Are_.

sent my dad a link to 82yo Tom Jones covering a Dylan tune & he was so squicked out he sent me this in return stating pointedly: "They're Scottish." (as are we, if you go back one generation past him). I'll take it 🤷‍♀️ Scots a bit angsty I suppose but that scans. www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4UQ...

🎶 Don't go chasing waterfalls They always stay in the same place anyway You're just gonna be sitting there staring At a totally stationary water feature 🎵 🎶 Maybe chase something That can change its location Every now and then Instead 🎵
