Happy Crab Day to all who celebrate!

When did this guy sneak up and become the best Yo La Tengo album?

eatin' my lunch with tweezers because I guess what I don't have at the studio is a fork

Two years for the first Casual Technicians album. This odd piece of work is one of my favorite releases on the label

Movie take: Project Hail Mary is for simpletons but I still enjoyed it

Next show! At @apohadion.bsky.social Killer flyer by Bob from @millionofenergy.bsky.social

has someone done this one yet? probably

Every three years or so I move forward in my idea of what is the last good Elvis Costello record. I think Trust may be as far as I can go

My favorite thing ever is to restock my section at Enterprise Records

Did you hear about the deluxe new album from Ben Auld, courtesy of @safesuburban.bsky.social and RC? Safest course of action is to check out this perfect power pop jam. safesuburbanhomerecords.bandcamp.com/album/loserdom

Thanks Andy at @ravensingstheblues.bsky.social ! The new @mythicalmotors.bsky.social track is out now

So I was raised by Original Recipe hippies and I don't think it usually shows, but sometimes I make a fried rice situation out of everything in the fridge and contentedly mutter to myself "wow man, fucking fried rice city"

Looking out the window at two people in the crosswalk just now my brain glitched forward to Halloween and tried to guess what their costumes were

So I didn't know a ton about the Predator movies and am looking at the recent one. Experts in the chat: is it normal for these movies to be mostly about the Predator learning the value of friendship?

Portland team, do you know about the secret dance party tomorrow?

Sometimes during a teams call I will gently place my cursor over the cursor of the person who is presenting. This means we are holding hands

Always a treat to end up on It's A Jangle Out There! This week there's a Daily Worker track in with the rest of this excellent batch of songs

I'm not like Dr and Mrs Dinosaur Jr, but man it's really hitting right now

Now the only thing I want to do

When I was in grade school an older kid on the bus was telling me about how dirty 2 Live Crew was. He told me "they have a song that goes Let's take a walk in the park, let's have some sex in the dark" and to this day I hope it's true

At an 11 band show in Austin and I'm not gonna make any friends with my indie rock shirt because it's too windy to unbutton my jacket

Man at the airport bar asking for a receipt says "I gotta get a printed receipt and take a picture. [short pause] Keeps Trump happy"

Happy release day to the Daily Worker album! dailyworker.bandcamp.com/album/prefab...

Hey, I'm starting to think that staying at the airport hotel for a bunch of days might be kind of a drag. I mean, they've got a tiny Chilli's in terminal B so I thought it'd be a party but it turns out I was mistaken

You're not gonna believe this, but the hotdog store at the Chicago airport does not have very good coffee

Apparently this also works for the Susan Collins auto texts

How your email finds me: eatin pork chop watchin star wars drinkin box wine playin dumb guitar

The year is 2026 and I am, once again, too pumped up to go to bed after watching the muppet show

A hundred some-odd more 3D printed whistles going out shortly!

I am stone-cold delighted to find this surprise review of October's @teenagetompetties.bsky.social album on @post-trash.bsky.social Lovely write up by Brett Williams! post-trash.com/news/2026/1/...

Here's an excellent local fundraiser if you're looking for ways to help out www.gofundme.com/f/support-fo...

It's not difficult to me because I'm a pro, but it's bullshit that uppercase I and lowercase l look the same.

World is a fuck, here is pleasant peanut butter

Air Bud rules on printing whistles at work

Click through for a thoughtful review of the new Daily Worker single by Joshua from Start Track! @filip.start-track.com start-track.com/single-daily...

Great write-up on the Daily Worker single courtesy of @austintownhall.bsky.social austintownhall.com/2026/01/09/d...

New artist! Please welcome Daily Worker from Austin. The first single off the new album is out today

A lot of people are mad that the skull is the blueprint of the face but they should relax. I did not gift them this turkey.

"Hard to believe that it's been nearly X years and no person has made an album better than Teenager of the Year" I say to myself once again on the first listen of the year to this perfect album

I remember clocking most of the 5 Alex Orange Drink albums last year as they went by but didn't realize at the time that they're based on the stages of grief. Worth checking out from the beginning! alexanderorangedrink.bandcamp.com/album/victor...

After a brief and misguided spin of the second half of the first Leonard Cohen album I'm starting the year with an unrelated album from a friend of the label. To be fair, the LC b side starts out with a gentle melancholy rather than a heavy one but the course-correct was the right move

Featuring Lone Striker (@teenagetompetties.bsky.social)! cc @safesuburban.bsky.social @repeatingcloud.com

I just checked, this album still stinks out loud

Thanks @austintownhall.bsky.social for including the @mythicalmotors.bsky.social album! It's on my list as well austintownhall.com/2025/12/19/n...

Every once I'm awhile I windmill my arm around in the bathroom looking for the pull-chain that's been gone for six years. I do not find it.

Well heck yes to this! @outro-band.bsky.social is clocking in at number 4 on the Rosy Overdrive top EPs list!

I dreamed I invented a drink to make kids go to sleep that was 1/4 flat beer, 1/4 whisky and half cough syrup

Here's a great and totally unexpected write-up on a @gumparker.bsky.social song from the good folks at @sodwee.bsky.social sodwee.com/blog/2025/04...

They tol me I could die from googlin pictures of hot rods

Day 6 without heat but Wowee Zowee still cooks
