It's technically Thursday where I am.

A perennial.

They call it stormy Monday, but ya know, Tuesday's just as bad! And Wednesday, don't get me started! It's even WORSE!

When your heart needs some healing, a little or a lot, you can start here

I'm more violent to myself just walking around the house, most days

Welp, time to set the "days since honked at for turning left" counter back to zero

I am excited and I will buy this but WHY does TMBG consistently ignore b-sides? Prime opportunity to fill side d with Back to Skull, but they do repetitive live tracks instead? Bah!

AND ANOTHER THING: Sundays > Smiths

This is so easy, y'all. The joke about the physical appearance of the Texas guard guys showing up in Chicago is not their weight. It's mean and it's hacky. The joke is that they look like the Superfans. It's the mustaches. Come on.

I haven't been interested in TS since, like, 1989 maybe. That's on me, not her. Just for context, cos I have to say: I respect poetry, and bending the language to break into new space. It's a noble pursuit. It does not excuse "legitly." LEGITLY.

HEY GUESS WHAT

Sometimes I wonder if my love for blatantly experimental, "out" music is a challenge to all the people that say they love "all kinds of music." Like, well, okay: a) is this even music? And b) do you love it? Cos in my case the answers here are: a) I can't really tell b) fuck yes I do

Somewhat recently I've been seeing a very anti-ketchup sentiment going around. Like, not in specific applications, but overall "KETCHUP IS GROSS AND/OR FOR CHILDREN ONLY" shit. What next, yellow mustard haters? Marinara class division? Fuck outta here with this

This AND Mantzoukas dropping a Metal Machine Music reference on CBB in one week? What next, Vic Michaelis references "You Are My Everlovin'" on Game Changer?

Evaluating my vinyl purchases at Acme from the weekend previous: Buckingham Nicks - s/t: my copy was a little dished, as most new vinyl I get these days is. The record is almost impossible to get back into the jacket after removal (also with mild difficulty.) Luckily it sounds fantastic.

Adventures in dating apps: I don't know why I run across so many profiles that feature golf in one way or another, but I always deny that shit. Golf sucks, I don't want to date somebody into fucking GOLF.

On the other hand, you take the visceral thrills where you can find them. My buddy Christreater played this varsity-level fuck jam on his @wmse917fm.bsky.social show this afternoon, and I think I sympathetically blushed. Take it easy with that hot oil, Teddy!

It should really be "OUR life is hell" but I get the feeling that Berndt is pretty self-centered, so you take what you can get

A friendly reminder: there's no shame in flushing A) more than once B) earlier than you might think you need to

Feels like a Fuck You Friday

I'm going to do everything in my power to make this one of those weekly memes.

I’m Francesca Hong, a single mom, service worker, and State Rep—now running for Governor of Wisconsin. This campaign won’t be funded by billionaires or corporate PACs. It’s powered by working people. If you’re ready to take back our state, chip in today: secure.actblue.com/donate/fran-...

enough with the leftist infighting, communists and anarchists should be friends. friends with benefits. time for leftist infucking

Now more than ever: block and move on

“‘Groyper,’ Paul” “Hah, ahhhhhhh”

Anyway, y'all like industrial music that actually sounds like it's coming from the middle of a factory?

My own five word summation? You reap what you sow.

Cloe gets it in five.

Unexpected feeling-my-age moment: hearing the KLF and "Rock the Night" by the Scorps in a bank lobby

The idea that literally anyone couldn't achieve that distracted swoop-doodle and sign it is, on its face, not believable It might as well have been on that notepad in the Big Lebowski, that's how absent-minded it looks Of course he "drew" it, it's like automatic writing

Dear JEFFREY! Wow, another birthday! Couldn't have happened to a more accommodating friend. Can't believe we made it, and you know what I mean by "it" ;) Through the darkness of future past, the magician longs to see. One chants out between two worlds: FIRE WALK WITH ME Here's to another 50!

Dreamed I had really good leftover takeout pizza in the fridge, awoke to find I did not. Very disappointing.

Oh, THAT'S Yungblud?

Y'know, back in 2016 I used to get shit from people on twitter about "being divisive" when I declared the people who voted that shitstain into office as my enemies. Wonder if they're still equivocating fucks in a world where the VP doesn't give a shit if you call him out for war crimes.

Currently cooking one (1) metric ton of butter chicken, with fresh garden tomatoes. I will know it is ready when the whole house smells amazing.

Me and @joshd.bsky.social got a sing-along going to this at our DJ gig the other night. Super easy to sing, super easy to pick up. Just putting that out there www.youtube.com/watch?v=VwcK...

If you see this, repost with a vampire who isn't Dracula.

Slept in a Cheap Trick shirt, woke up with a monster

SOLID FUCKING WEEKEND. Played a sold out rock show (we weren't the reason it was sold out, but WE WERE THERE,) DJed over 14 hours total, had excellent friendship time and possibly the best ramen I've ever had. Hell yeah.

Today!! We'll probably be starting earlier than 6 btw

watching a random movie on netflix: unpleasant, disappointing watching a random movie on tubi: extraordinary, a blessing

Chicagoland this weekend! Friday: Fuzzbox on Twitch 9pm-2am www.twitch.tv/fuzzboxchicago Saturday: Troubled Hubble/Hifi/Weaklung/Babe Report @ the Burlington link.dice.fm/c047ae35ae32 (get tickets now! Might sell out!) Sunday: @j-t-r-o-n.bsky.social and myself DJing @ Logan Arcade early 'til late!

That's also my band, so I gotta go with this one. After our set, I walked past Bob Weston, who said "Hey, nice cover!" to me. I said "Thanks!" and kept moving, slowly remembering that, at the time, he was in Mission of Burma. We'd closed with "That's How I Escaped My Certain Fate."

Ruin a book by adding “Tom Clancy’s” to the title "Tom Clancy's Please Kill Me"

Down to less than 20 tickets.
