After watching Who Framed Roger Rabbit as an adult I get all the political subplots but I also found that the Lena Hyena scene is one of funniest scenes.

#NowWatching True Romance. I have been listening to the “you’re so cool” so much time for a rewatch.

Sometimes there's so much beauty in the world,... I feel like I can't take it. And my heart is just going to cave in.

I got this in Cairo. It’s made out of Papyrus. It’s says TJ in Hieroglyphics in retrospect I should have gotten one that said Knower to match my chop sticks from Japan.

We live in a world where you need to get customer service to unlock laxatives.

My favorite Yo La Tengo concert story is when I saw them in 2023 at the Metro. It was in between the Wilco 3 night run at the Riv. (I wore my Yo La Tengo shirts to those shows) So I got in early to show at the Metro. Probably got a Red Bull or a water. I was wearing a Wilco shirt…

#NowPlaying Moby Octopad by Yo La Tengo. Very recognizable bass line, if you know the song. That is.

So I’m 30 pages into The Watchmen. Rorschach says “Hurm” a lot. Didn’t know it was a word until 20 minutes ago.

It must be the greatest hits of Yo La Tengo. Because now they’re playing Let’s Save Tony Orlando’s House. Which is off the banger And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside Out.

#NowPlaying Stockholm Syndrome by Yo La Tengo. This is probably the song that got me hooked in my older years. I know back in the Record Store Days I owned “I Can Hear The Heart Beating As One” But didn’t really get it until I saw them at Out of Space many years ago.

#NowPlaying Baby’s Arms by Kurt Vile. Great music selection today. Seeing him at the Old Town in few weeks.

Sounds like Fade is the Que at the coffee shop. Walked into I’ll be Around. #YoLaTengo

Do we really need a The Lost Boys musical? Come on.

A Dumpling a house is opening up pretty soon in Lincoln Square. That’s gonna be delicious. Can’t wait…but have to. It’s like Task.

They should make a Black Mirror episode where the person has to login to several apps every minute or so continuously using multiple 2fa’s and eventually loses their mind.

So I heard the other day if you have an anxiety attack and it lasts a few days to just ignore it. It’s kind of like what Josh Nash did. Just keep that in mind next you have one that lasts more than a day.

For those inquiring minds: The transition from Concessions into I’d really love to see you tonight doesn’t work. It’s too bad.

Happy Birthday Nicholas Van Orton. Your brother really gave you a life changing gift didn’t he?

Whoa. That John Candy documentary was heavy. Please watch it. Colin Hanks did a fantastic job.

20 minutes into this documentary and I feel like John Candy is my best friend

Watching the John Candy documentary. Just watched Uncle Buck last weekend. “a titan of gentle golden man…”

October 19th is when binge watching of Task starts.

I wonder if you have four copies of #Blueprints and play a different song off each side simultaneously if it it’ll play Draconian. #umphreys

I have always thought the company Blackstone is up to something sinister. I mean the name is right out of Bourne movie.

#NowPlaying Eternal Love by AVTT/PTTN this song has grown on me. I’m excited for the album.

All I want to know is how long until we have Gatorade in the water fountains?

I really think that if each team took an hour out their workday to listen and talk about Yacht Rock I feel productivity would go through the roof.

Sometimes you need to listen to Ambrosia then Hüsker Dü.

#NowPlaying Too Real by Jeff Tweedy. Whoa. Really hitting me this morning.

I really dislike how Spotify has automatic shuffle as the default. It makes no sense.

Those Fender Godzilla strats look and sound pretty cool.

They should have the reenactor awards for documentaries exclusively. I’d watch that. I feel like I’m good judge of reenactors due to all the docu series I watch.

Just watching Sleepaway Camp II: Unhappy Campers. Starring Bruce’s little sister Pamela Springsteen as Angela.

Really excited for the new Autumn Defense tomorrow. Coming out a few weeks after Twilight Override. Though they sound completely different from each other. Sometimes ever song for song.

Just listened to Flip Your Wig on break today. Hell of an album. Song for song. #HüskerDü

Sometimes I wonder if we’ve gone too far with technology. Do ovens really need wireless capability? Though I’m all for releasing full albums on household appliances such as Connor4Real’s Connquest.

#NowPlaying Black Gold by Soul Asylum. Loved this song growing up. When I finally saw the video it didn’t meet my artistic interpretation of the song.

For dinner should I get the two hot dog meal from Budacki’s? I’m going to the doctor tomorrow anyway. So if he mentions something about my cholesterol being higher than normal. I’ll ask if he has had the hot deal meal from Budacki’s? Then he will most likely say “you’ve got a point.”

If I was astronaut the minute we got zero gravity I’d put on “Dancin on the Ceiling” and play it for the crew the entire length of our mission.

#NowPlaying California Stars by Wilco. Do you think Woody Guthrie was thinking “I hope when this song gets completed it goes down as history as one of the songs to be played as an encore”

On the fence about going to Moe. But I think there’s a high probability that at least one person from Umphreys show up.

#NowPlaying Let My Love Open The Door by Mitski. Really well done cover. Very minimal but beautiful nonetheless.

You ever try and read an article on the internet and its more of search to find the actual article through all the ads?

When they broke up I even did that album EP thing that they put random Shows with an Everything Must Go song as a single. #BrothersPast

#NowPlaying Forget You Know Me by Brothers Past. I only got to see these guys twice. Once at the Grog Shop In Cleveland heights, Ohio. Even went backstage and met them. Then once at Lollapalooza. It would be cool if they reunited and played the Ardmore.

Speaking of the Autumn Defense. Their album Once Around reminds me of driving around in the winter.

Hearts Arrive is also a really good song for those inquiring minds. It’s very Big Star-ish or Big Starry. #AutumnDefense #BigStar

Really liking the new Autumn Defense album. At a listening right now. Winter Shore is my favorite song off the album so far.

#NowPlaying State Police by Brothers Past. This Feelings called Goodbye is such a banger start to finish.

#NowPlaying Guiding Light by Television. Another one of those songs that the music alone sounds like a guiding light.
