fuck you nyu langone

really into this wave of underground rappers that rap over microwaves and "not beats." they should stop using so much ai art though.

water the teeth by orchiddBB out now (PERM001) orchiddbb.bandcamp.com

when i say something im serious, no matter how silly it sounds, i mean it

its really too bad for me that BMI doesnt have a "performance art bs" work registry. id have all my stuff locked up. anyway, playing laundromat tonight. i won't be there. gían will help me with my set.

double knee inury makes me feel like im walking on a bubble. kinda cool if it wasn't effecting, you know, my mobility.

"dont you dare riff with me bro!"

the drake x mcdonalds meal is really just about 2 down on their luck guys linking up to get revenge on the haters, liars, and tweet-and-deleters. gotta love a true underdog story. 😵‍💫

water the teeth OUT FRIDAY. CDS AND STREAMING (most services, but not the big one or the one named after a significant river) WILL HAPPEN SOON (i had dates picked out but messed a bunch of stuff up, so i don't want to tell anyone yet).

"hey guys im leaving nyc for 10 days for spring break (i'm 37), who wants to sublet my room to help support small creators?"

Palantir paid zero federal income tax for fiscal year 2025, despite reporting $1.5 billion in income. itep.org/palantir-pay...

thoughts in the last 3 seconds: bummer ill never play the kiryu saga, i hate digital distribution, i hope the cd man doesnt think im an idiot, i have so much work to do, my legs hurt

historic levels of mistake-making over here. just folly after folly. someone give me 2 months off from literally everything please.

realizing i go way over 9-9-6 most weeks. like if it's 9-12 3 nights a week and 9-8 the other nights, and thats a 7 not a 6. my main goal rn is reducing my workload. im about to cancel like 5 gigs.

dog poop discourse friends, dog poop discourse

explorations, impressions, expressions, interpretations, meditations, ruminations, adventures, lmfao

as soon as you start shaming people for not showing up to your gig, or not buying your record, im fully out.

something everyone should know about me is im very up to date on pop music and i do in fact watch reality tv. both of these things are "problematic" but they don't fry you out quite like shortform video (which i also consume too much of).

as an ex-frank stan (aging myself) the flea cover of "thinkin bout you" is an afront to art. takes a transformative song that was a massive cultural moment and turned it into hold music. holy shit, the hubris of the rich.

should i do ig reel/tik tok dance lip sync content-farm vids for water the teeth? ill be all "organ failure is imminent" while absolutely working it (so i'm clearly lying about the organ failure).

PERM001 🫧 ORCHIDDBB - WATER THE TEETH AVAILABLE 2/20/26 LISTEN TO "ENDLESS SEA, THE DEEP" NOW + PRE-ORDER orchiddbb.bandcamp.com/album/water-...

if you own a ring camera, i don't trust you and i do not think you are a serious person. a deeply paranoid, hateful purchase.

keeping ghouls around just cause they have money is a top 5 (honestly maybe a top 1) problem in "the arts." seemed like there was motion on this like 8 years ago. now everyone's so broke they have no other choice. so good. (this cynicism comes from somewhere, i promise i earned it)

imo widespread work from home has absolutely decimated established labor practices that benefited workers (a ripple effect way beyond wfh jobs)

i don't give a rat's ass about the nfl, but im so stoked the pats lost. new england sports culture nearly ruined my life. love seeing bob kraft fail too.

angry today. might post cryptic bs on social media about it.

god i cannot stand j cole

I know people are understandably scared, but are we going to keep doing this every five months? This is not a broad coalition. This is four groups who never gave up and a bunch of small groups. This isn't new or interesting, and it actually says more that no actually powerful groups are involved.

the guys coming out of the woodwork to loudly say their music is for no one but themselves. so funny.

met my first "tough guy" in a long time. not a fan.

y'all are sharing way too much about yourselves online. what is there left that they haven't touched? keep that safe.

damn trying to lose a significant amount of weight rly sucks. im getting absolutely mobbed by GLP-1 ads b2b with influencer bs. i have to wade through the most toxic shit ever just to learn "calorie deficit required, eat better."

my band trans pecos is playing the broadway in february

i PROMISE no one wants to read your pseudo-spiritual, pseudo-intellectual 15 paragraph event description about how your "art serves humanity." keep it concise guys (also stop with the self aggrandizing bs).

"location always off, stop taking photos of everything, turn off biometrics, get a VPN, but also spend several hours a day on reddit and instagram"

this goes double for m*ta apps!!! holy hell yall.

edgy bs is a disease (too many of yall saying the r word lately)

instagram reels are designed to breed hatred (mild to severe)

some of these new year/year-in-review posts feel like reading ayn rand

Highway robbery: For non-members, less than seven minutes on an e-bike is more expensive than the subway. And even for Citi Bike members, a ten-minute e-bike ride is as expensive as the subway. It's time for New York City to subsidize bike share and cap runaway Citi Bike prices

year in review: i played 100 shows, caught 28 mice in my apartment (still counting tbh), [redacted for privacy], figured out how to do an ok solo set, started eating meat, [redacted for privacy]. i need the phone to tell me "good girl" and i need to share it. summarize my life for me.

rapidly googling "2025 experimental music albums" so i can post the most finely tuned year end list on my instagram story

when you're undeniably addicted to social media, but increasingly paranoid about surveilance, bluesky is like smoking cbd cigarettes. just makes me want the real thing more.

im the ceo of ethical hating btw.

musicians view your labor as labor regardless of pay challenge

tonight. tried a little harder than i usually do (which is already so high effort that it's a little embarassing; you might even call me a try-hard)
