Watched Dr. Strangelove last night. I found it funny and engaging but not incredible. Maybe because, apparently, I had zero idea what it would be about and was a comedy? I have crazy gaps in my knowledge of movies.

Keep being awesome

Thanks to the Daft Pom Show for playing “A100,” our daft song about British road nomenclature, from our newly reissued 2020 debut album. The extended IT MUST BE SOMETHING Digipak CD reissue is now from @subjangle.bsky.social!

It was a great turnout for the premiere of EVIL PUDDLE, the latest (and greatest?!) movie from Motern Media and @shockmarathons.bsky.social! I know I'm biased, but I never know what to expect or how they come up with this stuff, and it's always so much fun! Catch a screening this summer!

Matt Farley did a show on NPR. You should definitely watch it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5VI4...

Choose your own adventure. Maybe you just listen & try to guess what’s going on. Maybe you read the project explanation under the track list. Maybe you click on file names for bonus tracks & more info. Go down a rabbit hole. Or don’t. YOU DECIDE. #143 thearea51singers.bandcamp.com/album/bag-of...

Spring we are ready for you.

When any of my songs get used on a random IG post or tiktok I get overexcited. www.instagram.com/reel/DGPhB88...

Listening to Hertha lose to the last ranked team in the league. Surely they can at least tie this?! At least my coffee is good. #SSVBSC #Hahohe

If you are into history podcasts, i am really enjoying @hotgpod.bsky.social - am amazed at how little detail i actually knew about medieval german history. a name will come up and i think "oh i know about that guy", but i really did not. definitely worth checking out for history buffs!

Now this is 2. Bundesliga soccer

Proving the @MoternMedia when-you-become-a-Radiohead-fan theory, the local college radio DJ just sang the praises of the new Cure album. His album of the year.
