#NewWaveNovember #MusicChallenge Day 6 Echo and the Bunnymen - Do It Clean www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9OE...

An out of left field one for the kids at @midnightburger.bsky.social ... #WeOpenAtSix

if you've been in/lived in your aging grand/parent's house, you know the sign and label stage of trying to care for them at home

#NewWaveNovember #MusicChallenge Day 5 Voice Farm - Reconstruction It's a bummer that their best song, You and Me, isn't available on YT. And for some reason, almost none of this amazing group's 🎵 c is on Bandcamp. youtu.be/1Bm2v0BZ5AE?...

We. Fucking. Told. You.

#NewWaveNovember #MusicChallenge Day 4 Adam Ant - Desperate But Not Serious youtu.be/G8K7oViGZlQ?...

Bloody hell. Another instance of not being able to have nice things...

#NewWaveNovember #MusicChallenge Day 3 M - Pop Muzik youtu.be/gPoiv0sZ4s4?...

Something that happens sometimes when I'm close to finishing a piece is that I get excited to share it and then seeing it on social media has a way of making me notice all the things I'm not satisfied with about it. So I spent some more time with this today.

#NewWaveNovember #MusicChallenge Day 2 Alice Cooper - Clones (We're All) A departure from his usual style, but I loved this one when it came out and still do. youtu.be/P1h38gC23bw?...

How about a fictional #dystopia that's friendship based, not romance based, and set in the UK? No gratuitous love triangles, just die-for-each-other friendships, and no American dictators (despite the colour scheme...). Only 99p/99c for the series starter! getbook.at/BattleGround...#dystopia #UKYA

In the US now and findhelp.org seems both legit and very cool.

Gerrymandering wouldn't even be a problem if white people weren't so racist 🤡

#NewWaveNovember #MusicCallenge This one caught me out, so I don't have a prepared list. Let's start with Bill Nelson's Flaming Desire... youtu.be/3xI7j5zJrEM?...

Happy BattleGround-iversary, Rachel! Everyone else, if you haven't yet, read these!

Paedophile hunger games!

I'm not sure this actually works (I think the web site is blocking IP addresses abroad). Please try it and let me know if it works as advertised.

#80sTop30 - Alphabetical with a bit of a cheat. #MusicChallenge Day 30 Over the last two days, I've posted who, what, where, and when songs. To close out this music challenge, what better choice than The Specials' Why? Still so bloody relevant. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wiww...

We should not be having a debate about Nazi symbolism tattooed on the potentially top ticket Democrat in Maine. The fact we are even willing to entertain it shows desperation within the Party, not dedication, and how far we have fallen from rational thought.

#80sTop30 - Alphabetical with a bit of a cheat. #MusicChallenge Day 29 Yesterday I did Who and What; today you get Where and When. Yeah, it's a cheat. Sorry. Soft Cell - Where Did Our Love Go? Prefab Sprout - When Love Breaks Down Vids in the comments...

Biden exercises a clear Constitutional power. Republicans: He didn't use the right type of pen so it's invalid. Next its the paper they used, the brand of pen, the type of ink.... Republicans aren't serious people, they are just evil bigots we keep letting break our rules & gaslight us.

#80sTop30 - Alphabetical #Questions #MusicChallenge Day 28 Cheating on the last couple of days because 80s songs with question word titles are amusing me. I skipped H, thereby missing the chance for How Soon is Now. Bauhaus: Who Killed Mr. Moonlight Orange Juice: What Presence?! Vids in comment

David Lynch's Dumbo

#80sTop30 - Alphabetical #MusicChallenge Day 27 Heaven 17 - We Live So Fast Those first two albums (Penthouse And Pavement and The Luxury Gap) were just about perfect. As was much they did later... www.youtube.com/watch?v=aCcP...

There are few phrases I respect less than when someone says they don't "agree" with research findings. Research doesn't exist for you to agree or disagree. It exists for you to prove or disprove. Come up with a competing hypothesis and TEST IT. Otherwise, I don't give a damn how it makes you feel.

When the New Deal comes, and it will after crushing devastation, we cannot allow the elite political class do it by making people of color the acceptable tradeoff again.

Western man is externalizing himself in the form of gadgets. —Dr. Benway, in Naked Lunch by William S. Burroughs

The only aesthetically pure way to watch the original STAR WARS trilogy is these moldy grindhouse prints that were found and digitized a few years ago You can see the OT the way it was originally seen: with the original ILM effects, in a dreamlike gauze ENJOY: www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/iozg1...

Confidential to anyone living in the Netherlands: that thing about this year's COVID vaccinations only being for the elderly, immunocompromised and healthcare workers isn't actually true. Anyone can get one; you just make the appointment and you don't have to give them any reason.

Oh. Doubleplushellyeah...

#80sTop30 - Alphabetical by title #MusicChallenge Day 24 The plan for today was Skinny Puppy's Tin Omen, but due to the passing of Dave Ball this week, I'm going with Soft Cell's Torch... www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSG3...

You know that May 4 is Star Wars Day. You've seen that March 14 is Pi Day. Bringing it all together is Oct 23: TODAY IS MOLE DAY! 10²³ Celebrated, more accurately, between 6:02a & 6:02p, the holiday is based on Avogadro’s Number (6.02 × 10²³).

Oh man. That's a lousy loss.

I'm so sad this is over, but it's so good. And the ending is lovely. And so looking forward to what @jesserbest.bsky.social does next.
