This is all pointless. They won.

The stage of the world is just too damn much to care about sports. I’m sorry but it all feels gross right now.

I am stunned by how many people I know don’t want to acknowledge what is going on.

Has anyone checked on Eddie Trunk?

Everything is so bleak & it’s never going to get better. I may feel different in a few hours, but not right now.

John Carpenter is one of the great storytellers of my life. Reaching THEY LIVE tonight with my daughter, who is having her first viewing. #movies #filmsky

All of you ranking HARD EIGHT at the bottom of PTA’s filmography should rewatch it :-) Phillip Seymour Hoffman gives one of the great performances of the late ‘90s in it. There’s sorrow, confidence & a whole life we glimpse through his eyes.

Last time with this one.

🎃With the best season now upon us, I've made a couple of new prints available for pre-order in ye olde shoppe to help set the mood! Small runs, big moods. (A few old favorites are making a return- see the next post!)🎃 www.brianna-ashby.com/new-products

Downtown Chicago & the Riverwalk.

Riot Fest on Friday was a lousy experience. No other way to say it. Saturday? The complete opposite & the British band James had a lot to do with that. #james #jamestheband

All right, here we go: an appreciation of Robert Redford's acting, his undeniable beauty, and how he leveraged both to become a legendary figure in cinema. Great photos, selected by the @vulture.com art department! www.vulture.com/article/robe...

Today was 👎

We need more overtures at the start of movies.

Hey! So my latest book, "BEYONCÉ: THE STORIES BEHIND THE SONGS" is out as of today! Covering Destiny's Child onward to "Cowboy Carter," it's a comprehensive look at her artistry and music. Shop now! www.amazon.com/Beyonc%C3%A9...

Watching the James livestream from @nugs.net & it’s glorious. Can’t wait to see them at @riotfest.bsky.social this weekend.

“We wanted to focus on his magnetic presence on screen in 11 of our favorite performances, a sampling that just skims the surface of this man’s underrated range.” Read on for our contributors picks for some of the late Robert Redford’s most notable roles. www.rogerebert.com/features/the...

Every once in a while you see a concert that rewires your brain. It makes you rethink about every show you’ve seen before & what you expect at future shows. The current Lady Gaga tour did just that for me. An absolutely staggering display of music & art. #LadyGaga

Lady Gaga performing “The Edge of Glory” solo at the piano last night at the United Center in Chicago. 9/17/25 #ladygaga youtu.be/L9kcEsL0u6E?...

I own a good number of Robert Redford films on dvd, Blu-ray & HD digital. On a whim, I decided to see how many were available on streaming services. The following are NOT streaming anywhere: The Way We Were Butch Cassidy The Sting Sneakers The Natural Spy Game Out of Africa Candidate 1/

All of sudden her duet with Jon Bon Jovi makes sense*. *(This has a very limited audience).

These final 10 seconds of the HAIM main set will live rent free in my brain forever. #haim #musicsaves #concert

Updating my iTunes library with download links & cd rips have proven to be a Herculean task every time I do it. Artwork disappears for the entire library every other update, files that played fine a week ago are no longer recognized, etc I wish there was an easier way to update digital libraries.

Forever a jam!

HAIM sounds absolutely luminous tonight in Chicago. #Haim #livemusic #concert #musicsaves

Going to a show tonight where the venue & Ticketmaster have different start times. Insta post from 3 weeks ago shows one opener. The venue website shows a different one. A friend who works at the venue tells me the show sold so poorly they were told no opener. This shouldn’t be this hard.

The Prince estate has to be in shambles. This release feels like it belongs in 2001. There is no material from “The Vault” here. No live show. No live video of him from the shirt tour. theseconddisc.com/2025/09/11/p...

here's the first half of my writeup about the Born to Run Symposium & the actual panels. It was an all-day affair and if I'd written about it in one post no one would ever get through it. Here's part 1: www.radio-nowhere.com/born-to-run-...

Travel sports is nothing more than multi-level-marketing (MLM). People see a way to make money so they don’t have to work a corporate job. They sell parents on the hope this will make their kid go to the “next level” when 99.9% never do.

Don’t post. Don’t feed it. Do not give it air.

How is it only Wednesday? HOW?

Depressing as hell.

I'm thinking of opening a much more limited (8-10) round of little spooky season drawings for this year. Raise your hand if you'd be interested!

I had a busy weekend and so did a guy named Bruce variety.com/2025/music/n...

I just saw the Lady Gaga video for “Edge of Glory” on Pluto & I had forgotten it was the last thing Clarence Clemons did. He died 3 weeks after filming it & it just made me wildly emotional right now. youtu.be/QeWBS0JBNzQ?...

I’m thinking of Charles Cross today & how much he would have loved this NEBRASKA reissue. #Springsteen #BruceSpringsteen

The bass player for Great White is experiencing some medical hardship. They have a GoFundMe page up & running. gofund.me/e5f40f19

Can we stop playing shows in the Hamptons for rich people?

I am breakfast this morning & my mom keeps referring to Oasis as “The Oasis” every time she asks about the show. :-)

Live from Daryl's House is now on YouTube! Daryl (Hall and Oates) Hall jams with great musicians at his home studio. It's raw, I love it. Here is the playlist for Daryl and Cheap Trick. youtube.com/playlist?lis...

My Chemical Romance did not disappoint last night. They roared into Soldier Field in Chicago, proceeded to melt everyone’s faces with a tale of fascism & for the final song of the night, they brought out Billy Corgan of the Smashing Pumpkins. In my most ‘90s voice I’m here to tell you it slayed. A

The amount of mental energy I spend on a band, who doesn’t not deserve any of my energy, is a sickness.
