This song rocks far harder than it I expected it to. 😂

Ive said it before, I'll say it again Get rid of your Ring.

How was y'all's #BandcanpFriday? Mine was… profligate. I got brand new stuff: * Dry Cleaning, Secret Love * Itchy & the Nits, Greetings From… * The Mountain Goats, "Going to Fennario" (single) * The Paranoid Stle, Known Associates (pre-order) (1/3)

Order this now, y’all!

Loot drop after defeating me: * 5 lbs. kosher salt * 2d4 small rocks * travel mug of cold, black coffee * WPRB teeshirt * spreadsheet of plant trivia (rare/legendary)

Alternate game: worst song that you still like. Mine is Loverboy's "Working for the Weekend", which was playing when I walked through the door at my first school dance in 8th grade. It's not good, but I'll always have a weird affection for it.

Favorite long-titled song? It's gotta be Pink Floyd's "Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict" (Ummagumma, 1969)

Feel free to pitch in! comics4liam.com lists links to help families terrorized by ICE.

I joined my friend Greg and other cartoonists to draw something to welcome Liam Ramos home, but ~3800 children remain in ICE custody, including at least three students from Liam's school (and 25 parents). Join us at #Comics4Liam !

November is coming yes, BUT in Texas, FIRST WE HAVE PRIMARIES IN MARCH Less than 15% of voters vote in Texas primaries. You cannot have strong candidates if you do not go vote for them in MARCH

Why bother with a racist show run by maga sex perverts when you can watch Japanese lesbians fighting giant pandas with a hammer?

Everyone at TopatoCo supports today's ICE Out strike. Because we are a small business, we will be remaining open; however we will be donating 50% of our profits for today to the National Immigrant Justice Center. #IceOut

Last weekend I saw 4 excellent Philly bands at God's Automatic Body & Spa in Kingsessing: Sweepers, Noun, The Angies & Subtle Body. cc/ @jon.wprb.com

Paul Bunyan sez FUCK ICE.

abolish and prosecute ICE

Happy birthday to the deeply complicated, profoundly inspiring human problem that's Mr. Warren Zevon. Perhaps more than any single figure, he informed what kind of songwriter I felt I should be. Here's a piece I wrote about him for Oxford American a few years back. oxfordamerican.org/web-only/mtv...

@jon.wprb.com I received multiple compliments on my new Marathon teeshirt while attending a gig in Philly tonight!

"Oh my gosh, it was so nice to see you! Have a lovely day, fuck ICE!" "Oh you too hon! Stay safe in that traffic, fuck ICE!' - two older Minnesota ladies, bidding farewell after the protest

i should probably spend the majority of this year promoting my book The He-Man Effect (the story of how He-Man was just the beginning of how corporations would insert themselves into our souls, steal some of it and then sell it back to us later) alongside this reboot which proves the thesis.

5 gigs with female lead singers: Screaming Females/Noun/Universal Girlfriend Hop Along Those Darlins Scrawl The Coathangers I can do this all day…

I get the impulse, trust me, but "Not all Americans" goes down about as well as "Not all men" did. It's a true statement that is also completely irrelevant, and demanding recognition for not being a piece of a shit while the rest of the world suffers helps nothing and no one.

We've had a lot of laughs today at Dresden Codak, but what's *no* laughing matter is not knowing you can still pre-order my Dark Science book that's coming out in a little over a month! dark-science-volume-1.backerkit.com/hosted_preor...

Introduce yourself with 5 concerts: * Yo La Tengo @ JC Dobbs, Phila. (1992) * Yo La Tengo @ Singletary Center, Lexington, KY (2003) * Yo La Tengo @ Southgate House, Newport, KY (2007) * Yo La Tengo @ Trocadero, Phila. (2011) * Yo La Tengo @ Union Transfer, Phila. (2023) Did I do it right?

Weaver D's in Athens, GA. I ate there once in a while when I was a grad student at UGA in the mid-90s. Had THE BEST fried chicken I've ever tasted. The sweet potato soufflé was sublime. And if you complimented Weaver on the meal, he simply drawled, "Automatic".

No new pictures. Where are you at mentally?

@jon.wprb.com I just caught up on your Best of 2025, Part 2 show & let me strongly encourage you to finish listening to the new PE album, if you haven't already. That was my *2nd* favorite album of the year (after Weakened Friends).

ahhhh, New Jersey. never change (h/t Istvan)

I guess my "home" river is the Rancocas Creeka tributary of the Delaware. At other times in my life it's been the Quinnipiac, Liffey, Oconee, & Olentangy Rivers, & Triplett Creek.

A sampler of my favorite albums/songs from 2025. Consider it a soundtrack as we watch the world burn. open.spotify.com/playlist/4EB...

I saved programs for my TRS-80 onto a cassette tape.

I posted my top albums list for 2025 over on Mastodon. It's a little long & I'm a lot lazy, so just gonna drop a link here. mastodon.social/@donutage/11... tl;dr: listen @weakenedfriends.bsky.social , they're great!

1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts? Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from. Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

Not sure why my score is so high. There’s a lot of this country I’ve never been to, but I guess I’ve spent extended periods in quite a few places. I’m counting, e.g., my undergrad state as “lived in”, & everything from overnight visits to several weeks as “stayed”.

Does this mean I can finally get some Mondrian Cake without paying exorbitant licensing fees?

At least, I know it like scripture.
