I was always told that I would get more conservative as I got older. Holy fuckin’ airball.

Did Fox News fire Brian Kilmeade yet for suggesting homeless people should get executed?

I was today year’s old when I learned what a Groyper is.

I don’t have Twitter anymore, did Nancy Mace at least delete the death penalty tweet before she wrote the pray for the assassin tweet?

A small part of me wants to reactivate my Twitter account just to see if all the weirdo right wingers who were ready to declare war on the left a couple days ago have walked back their chest thumping tweets yet.

Late to watching #aewdynamite tonight. Just finished it and it was one of the best top to bottom Dynamites in recent memory!

At this point in their careers, most bands have fizzled out. But #Pile are still shape shifting. SUNSHINE AND BALANCE BEAMS isn't just proof of life, it's proof they're essential. @aarxn82.bsky.social reviews beardedgentlemenmusic.com/2025/08/18/p...

@nojoy.bsky.social's BUGLAND doesn’t bother with sticking to one genre or following a clean, predictable structure. It’s intentionally messy, layered and built to feel lived-in. @aarxn82.bsky.social reviews. beardedgentlemenmusic.com/2025/08/13/n...

I love it when a band can grow their sound and lyricism without relying on tropes or watering down their talents. "Straight Line Was a Lie" is the 4th album by @thebeths.bsky.social, and I wrote about it for @beardedgmusic.bsky.social. beardedgentlemenmusic.com/2025/08/25/t...

As August draws to a close, @almightydanish.bsky.social is back with a compilation of the months best Ska, Punk and Other (not) Junk! beardedgentlemenmusic.com/2025/08/26/s...

Wrestling BlueSky is much less toxic than Wrestling Twitter and that’s refreshing.

Yeah, it’s cool to see Edge and Christian together again, but I’m most excited for Kip Sabian to finally get a match on a PPV in London. Great to see an AEW Original get his flowers. Well deserved. #aew #aewforbiddendoor @allelitewrestling.com

Montreal's The Planet Smashers are back with their tenth full-length, On The Dancefloor, out today on Stomp Records. @almightydanish.bsky.social took some time away from having it on repeat to write down some of his thoughts. Check it out below! beardedgentlemenmusic.com/2025/08/22/t...

Heading home from vacation recharged, refreshed, and happy.

Just played my first game of Unmatched Battle of Legends volume 3 at #GenCon and it was perfect. The decks were perfectly themed and fit the characters wonderfully. @restorationgames.bsky.social keeps knocking them out of the park!

Its the end of the month so that means @almightydanish.bsky.social is compiling the best releases that ska and its adjacent genres have to offer! This is SKA, PUNK & OTHER JUNK for July 2025! beardedgentlemenmusic.com/2025/07/29/s...

I feel more aimless, sad, and hopeless than usual these days.

James Gunn did an amazing job with Superman. Completely wiped away the stench of the Snyderverse for me. This is the Superman and DCU I wanted.

My wife is watching SLC Punk for the first time. Forgot how much I liked it!

With ALANIS: THIRTY YEARS OF JAGGED LITTLE PILL, Selena Fragassi has literally written the book on Morissette's monumental album. @aarxn82.bsky.social caught up with her to talk about the book, journalism, and Chicago's flourishing music scene. beardedgentlemenmusic.com/2025/07/07/a...

Got home from being off work for a week on vacation and am already sad. Capitalism! Grrr!

Hey! Here’s this month’s music column. beardedgentlemenmusic.com/2025/06/30/s...

Normally by June @almightydanish.bsky.social already thinking about his top albums of the year. 2025 is a different animal though and instead, music has been his main source of self-care. Here are the bands that got him through June. beardedgentlemenmusic.com/2025/06/30/s...

After 25 years as a band, MURDER BY DEATH are calling it quits. @almightydanish.bsky.social caught one of the shows are their farewell tour. Check out the full report beardedgentlemenmusic.com/2025/06/23/m...

I decided to open up one of my Record Store Day albums and actually listen to it instead of letting it collect dust. Highly recommended.

I didn’t like Goldberg in the ‘90s. I’m not going to like Goldberg in the 2020s.

I heard dipshit’s parade was a colossal waste of money and a complete embarrassment. #NoKingsDay

No one is illegal on stolen land.

Hoping tonight’s punk rock show lifts my spirits.

Check out what @almightydanish.bsky.social has to say about the latest from Catbite, Skappository, The Mercenaries, The Players Band, The Red Stripes, FRND CRCL, Old Neon, Skinny Lister, You Vandal, WYLDLIFE and more in the latest SKA, PUNK & OTHER JUNK beardedgentlemenmusic.com/2025/05/29/s...

Abadon and Mariah May are out of AEW. How lame.

Just watched the new Captain America movie. At least it was better than The Celestials. 🤷‍♂️

Toni Storm is talking circles around Mercedes Mone. This is painful. #AEW #AEWDynamite

Wow. I haven’t seen Preston Vance in a while. This gimmick is embarrassing. #AEW #AEWDynamite

After being a fan for decades, @almightydanish.bsky.social finally gets a chance to see Diesel Boy (along with Nerf Herder)! Check out his full report! beardedgentlemenmusic.com/2025/05/27/d...

There was a report of a “credible” Bigfoot sighting an hour south of my house. (It wasn’t me).

This go home show has not influenced me to care about the PPV this weekend. :( #AEWDynamite #AEWDoubleOrNothing

I saw The Boy Detective and Catbite last night and it enriched my soul in ways I still can’t comprehend.

The idea I had for my comic miniseries that I want to write popped back into my head today. Guess it’s time to write it.

Not sure why HBO Max going back to being called HBO Max is news. I mean, it never stopped being HBO Max, right?

Absolutely ridiculous that AEW did two shows in Detroit and didn’t have Danhausen on TV. Making money on his merch sales, but not using him at all. Likely just letting his contract expire, which sucks. Such wasted potential. Might not have had to sell Collision tickets at 50% off if he was there.

I get sad at least once a day lately. It’s ok to be sad and I’ll be okay, but it just sucks.

Narrowing down April's embarrassment of riches was no easy task, but @almightydanish.bsky.social persevered and delivered another stellar selection of bands and releases to check out in this month's Ska, Punk, and Other Junk column. beardedgentlemenmusic.com/2025/04/28/s...

Check it out! Andy from @selltheheart.bsky.social talks about the last 15 years of the label on @beardedgmusic.bsky.social today! beardedgentlemenmusic.com/2025/04/24/a...

I had my money on Hegseth being the first to go and it looks like I was right.

Just as an FYI: if you are a content creator, brand, journalist, reviewer, etc, and you are ONLY posting your content on Twitter/X, you are severely limiting your reach. You might see some engagement over there...but is it worth it when 90% of the messaging over there is pure hate?

I’ve officially gotten to the point in Zelda BOTW where I stopped playing a few years ago. Progress.

Night 1 of #Wrestlemania > Night 2 of Wrestlemania

If Vince were still in charge, Charlotte goes over. So happy Tiffany Stratton got the W there. That was a star making type match. #wrestlemania

If WWE does it right, Jacob Fatu will be the face of their company for years to come. #wrestlemania
