No better time to make art than when the world is crazy. I'm still a novice and it's definitely a process (mixing a 20-track song was a major learning experience) but I have something new to share. youtu.be/UUOuYcElNyU?... Also on Apple Music & Spotify and gradually making it to other services…

It pisses me off so much when I see those ChatGPT ads where someone gets advice for sticking to a running routine or opening a restaurant — all that information is stolen from folks who have done actual research studies, run trials, written blogs, published essays & books. Fucking thievery.

Nothing like listening to a 60s hits montage for an hour to make one really appreciate Jimi Hendrix. Must have just entirely blown people’s minds. So far ahead of his time it’s bonkers.

Mixing and mastering a song with 2 tracks was not that hard. Learning how to mix and master a song with 20 tracks was exponentially more work. Took months. But it's finally done, and has been submitted to streaming services. Watch this space...

I think we gave filming podcasts a fair enough shake and can stop now!

Say what you want about solar, but it sure was nice to get a $14.63 electric bill this month.

Five of the eight Sweet Sixteen games involve at least one Big Ten team. One of them involves two.

Mastering is a black art.

Nice explainer for anyone who hasn’t been keeping track of the chaos.

Great game! The Nebraska Sports Bras narrowly defeated the Vanderbilt Tanners.

Is it just me or are a couple of the Nebraska players wearing black sports bras under their jerseys?

Throw an elbow like that against Duke or UNC and you get ejected. But against Michigan it’s a foul on… the defender? WTAF?

That was the dumbest overtime I’ve ever seen.

Maybe it’s just me but there’s something incongruous about New Order’s “Age of Consent” as the background music in a Chevy commercial.

Industrial isn't my main wheelhouse but artists in my music library include Nine Inch Nails, Front 242, Die Warzau, My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult, Ministry, etc. so it's in there. Yet somehow I completely missed Skinny Puppy. Not sure what happened there. So, which SP album should I start with?

Qualified for my first mtg PT and am looking for a team :) RTs appreciated and DMs are open! Special shout out to @devoteddruid.bsky.social & @juubs.daze.lol docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Oh. ffmpeg8 was released last fall and I totally missed it. Better get on that one...

Day job: professor. Side hustle: musician. Recently test mastered my second single. Listening in car, on earbuds, etc. to put it through its paces. Weird to have something I made just sitting in my music library with everything else, almost but not quite finished.

@bdm.bsky.social So, I stopped playing MTG a while ago. But my son still plays. I taught him when he was about 9, and at age 12 was the youngest at the time to Day 2 a limited GP. He backed off a bit in high school/college, but plays regularly now. Today he qualified for the PT. Top8 at the GP.

Oddly, this was not in any of my history books in K-12. Wonder why?

All rematches in MD curling went to the team that lost the first time. Very thin margins at the top of the sport. #curling #olympics

@zoekeating.com Do you play Wordle?

Sam Darnold has won a Super Bowl as a starter.

Patriots look almost exactly like they did against the Texans. The difference is that the Seahawks have a running game and Darnold hasn’t thrown 4 picks.

We don’t get to do this all that often. Cozy.

@zoekeating.com I was just looking through my music library to see how many things I had in 24/96 and realized that _Snowmelt_ will be EIGHT years old this year. So since I'm already in the wayback machine, here's a pic of you from a show in Houston in... 2015.

NCAA is apparently on a mission to make NFL refs look good. Sheesh.

@tomgrossi.bsky.social I think Josh Allen is in the back pocket of the cardiology lobby.

This right here👇

I miss precedented times.

If the thing you are clutching your pearls over today is an elected official using profanity during a press conference about STORMTROOPER THUGS MURDERING A WIDOWED MOM please fuck the fuck off.

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

8-4 Iowa beating 10-2 Vandy brought the Big Ten bowl record to 7-1 and the SEC’s to 2-5. Ouch. It’s like everyone being able to pay players has wiped out the SEC advantage.

@boostblue.bsky.social So, I know multi-account support was added in 2.7 but it doesn’t really work for me. I can switch from one account to another, but I can’t switch back. If I tap the “settings” icon when I’ve switched, I just get a blank screen.

Well that was a surprise. Missing that FG would have been the most Falcons thing ever. #NFL #TNF

I’m not a homophobe or anything but could Chris Collinsworth please wait until AFTER the game—when the mics are off—to fellate the Chiefs?

Maybe Notre Dame would have made the playoff if they actually played in a conference. Seems like the ACC would have been pretty winnable.

The #Texans seem destined to play in ugly games. The defense is so good they make the opposing offense look bad, and the Texans’ offense is not exactly aesthetic. Just enough to get the job done. And Colts fans, do not even begin to complain about officiating. Manning got ALL the calls for years.

Had a blast last night with seeing George Clinton and his great crew doing mostly old Parliament and Funkadelic songs. I may need to acquire an envelope filter.

Today I had the pleasure of watching a professional (a tow truck driver) break into a locked car without leaving so much as a scratch. Took maybe 2 min. Fascinating process. A little more involved than the old school slim jim but still quite effective.

OK, I stand corrected. Where has THIS been all season?f #GoTexans

Forcing someone to watch the Texans’ offense against their will is, I’m pretty sure, a violation of the Geneva Convention.

There’s offensive ineptitude, and there’s whatever the Texans were doing on x and 1. I love my Texans but they can be hard to watch.

Another huge call (or lack thereof) goes the Chiefs' way. However, things are clearly changing—at least the announcers called it out. 2-3 years ago no way anything would have been said. Baby steps.

That was OPI when the Texans did the exact same thing yesterday. Just sayin’

@zoekeating.com Just dropped your name in a music recommendation thread on a speaker forum. First two replies were "impressive" and "Wow - this is so good!!!!!" Just hoping to brighten your day.

Just watched the BEAT Live blu-ray. Pretty much a religious experience. Saw the show live twice and it's captured incredibly well. The 5.1 mix is also outstanding. Thank you @tonylevin.bsky.social

@tomgrossi.bsky.social I assume you and Scooter have some kind of wager, yes?

Why would anyone pay attention to medical advice from someone who once in a press conference suggested that we try injecting bleach?
