I honestly used to be pro-robot. I mean, I even had the “I ❤️ Robots” stickers, etc. What changed? Two things. First, owning a Sonos WiFi system in a two-floor condo. Second, the human urge to release a product before it’s ready, with additional costs to fix it. youtu.be/dULwfNA9BRQ?...

What the hell I mean If anyone, makes sense it’s him

It’s no secret I both used to listen to the Dead, and *stopped* listening to the Dead, with attitude about it. Still, this performance by Weir and Wasserman was really great. RIP, Bob. youtu.be/ryxmftgV-OI?...

Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn’t Nirvana, Pear Jam, Soundgarden, or Alice In Chains. I usually go with Spiritualized’s LADIES AND GENTLEMEN WE ARE FLOATING IN SPACE for these sorts of things, but today, I thought I’d switch it up youtube.com/playlist?lis...
