anyone know a good music streaming service that has a "no AI" option?

thanks for all the fish, @jeremiah.sounderatheart.com 😂

Mellville phones it in for his Jiffy Lube interview:

two Torrent tix available tonight, $60 for the pair, slide into ye olde DMs if interested

Melville deals with horny ghosts:

New cocktail bar promises rotovaps and funky glassware shapes and popup guest shifts ...

i wish you all could feel how perfectly designed this bottle is and the way it settles into the natural curves of your hand. somewhere there are sketches from the design process and i would literally hang them on my wall if i got my hands on them

the fact that our next election could literally end up in a debate between Tucker Carlson and Jon Stewart is more than even this timeline can withstand

"you remember Rick Steves from those PBS travel shows, yeah?" fast forward to over an hour and a half of some of the best conversation with my brother in recent memory. the kind of stuff therapists' dreams are made of literally unpacking generational issues so, yeah. thanks for the "like" lol 😂

Will I still keep an eye out for @ricksteves.bsky.social in Italy next month? Absolutely. But having a post liked by one of my childhood travel heroes (behind my grandparents, whose wall's map was covered in pins and inspired me to visit 57 countries and counting)? Shades of what twitter once was.

A man walks into a bar and says to the bartender "hey, you've got a speck in your eye" and the bartender goes, "why the log face?"

Melville pitches his Halloween ideas to the folks at Sodastream:

worm crayfish (plural) pig shark

121% going to start saying a day is "mountainin' out" "Some friends came over, we were grilling, it was mountainin' out, just a great weekend all around"

yeah but it runs like a dork

new idea: jerseys with secret tearaway panels/sleeves with weak stitching see ref? he was pulling on it so hard it ripped!

note to future me: you had beets tonight youtu.be/Kw2WsXIgO6A?...

the way they read the defense, then adjusted the direction of pressure on the back post man to account for the other bodies in the box? clearly the result of some excellent coaching. really fun stuff!

Melville gets "just one more" tattoo ...

someone was asking about places to get glasses since they were so expensive, and while i don't have an answer, i did just run across a bit of a reason

my takeaway from the match will be the smiling approval i got from Tigres fans when I heckled effectively in Spanish as their players rolled about on the pitch upon feeling a stiff breeze ... "Llore más cabrón!"

Melville catches a DJT presser:

@kagi.com any chance you'll offer an option with unlimited searches and zero AI? I don't want any AI assistant in my plan please.

i'm not saying google is lying about their in-app speed test results for their own router, but it sure seems sketchy that everyone else clocks them much slower

PTJ's #ApoctapusArmy loving that stop!

the best thing about these shirts is if you cross your eyes just right there's a 3D picture of Sammy!

except a doctor on toast!

The good news is that according to Revelation 13:5 his term will end 6 months early. "And the beast was given a mouth uttering haughty and blasphemous words, and it was allowed to exercise authority for forty-two months."

well goddamit if @vdoozer.bsky.social and co. didn't smack those last few episodes of Shrinking out of the park

Happy 5y anniversary of the day Merritt Paulson blocked me, to those who celebrate!

Thousands of live shows from back in the day, including Nirvana in 1989 Enjoy the rabbit hole! archive.org/details/aada...

Happy 10 year anniversary to a once legendary tweet by @guster.bsky.social, the details of which are likely lost to the ravages of time. Here's a 5y anniversary snippet thet may be the last extant proof of those good times.

Melville attends a Free Will Baptist church in the South:

can't help but feel like my country's gonna see a lot more of this sort of thing... (by way of @punkwithacamera.bsky.social on the instas with the same handle)

Melville finishes his vision board:

that's like 112 years in Crime Dog years!

also "reject all cookies" should be just as easy as "accept all cookies"

we're gonna need a bigger chip

Melville does inventory:

the odds of Coleman Domingo hosting SNL without a Marcello Hernandez "Domingo" appearance feel like they are approximately zero

yeah but how many cup holders does it have?

"front porch" - drink!

no pressure, but don't slip and fall off the zodiac into the water with a few million people watching!

I ask @cantwell.senate.gov @jayapal.house.gov @murray.senate.gov why they don't have daily press conferences repeating "___ is a COWARD for not disavowing DJT who continues to cover up the Epstein files and openly calls for genocide" Do it for all 270 congressional Rs Shame them EVERY DAY BY NAME

For those who have been to any of the following cities, if you only get one recommendation per city (restaurant, bar, museum, park, whatever but only one rec total per city) what is it? Rome Florence Venice Vicenza Naples

if you've ever been on the apps (any of them, not just Raya, and I'm not too proud to say I was on them back in my 30s) you know exactly what this means Pulisic's a fuckboy
