Kudos to Jamelle Bouie for leaving this site. Place seems kinda dumb without him, though. Deleting app from phone. Was a fun year!

New track from the duo I'm half of: brainwashers.bandcamp.com/track/enemy-...

At a concert, it will not “sound best” by the mixing board. The mixing board placement is mostly determined by the venue’s priority (selling beer). Sound engineers learn how to mentally calibrate their hearing to try and deliver the best sound to the audience regardless of how bad the mix position.

ok i have another quote tweet prompt. what's something, big or small, related to your job or hobby, that most people don't know that you would like to have them know? it can be a concept, a piece of history, some vocabulary, or something else.

Sometimes I still get roadsick (opposite of homesick) and will have a mini-meal of tortilla chips and hummus. I don’t know if anyone eats that combo outside of dingy green rooms.

Look, from the ‘90s through the ‘10s, my bands and I ate chips and hummus in dingy green rooms 250 nights a year, so who can really say

I hope we can all take a moment to reengage with this awesomeness: youtu.be/Fd5c3Qtcr_w?...

i'll forever treasure the memory of being at a friend's Showbiz Pizza birthday party where his younger sister lifted up the mouse cheerleader's skirt, exposing bare animatronic steel and wires, shrieked in genuine terror and yelled "SHE'S A TERMINATOR!"

In light of @electricalwsop.bsky.social’s passing, it’s worth revisiting him struggling with his past as an edgelord. His desire to be better than his past is something we should all try to emulate.

It's Tuesday of next week and somehow Kendrick has reveals that Drake knows where Amelia Earhart's plane is and also has 3 kids in the lost city of Atlantis. We're tired. We haven't slept since Thursday night.

John Barth probably got cancelled a while back but I missed it. Chimera still one of my all-time favorite books. www.nytimes.com/2024/04/02/b...

John Barth, Writer Who Pushed Storytelling’s Limits, Dies at 93www.nytimes.com His sprawling and boisterous novel “The Sot-Weed Factor,” published in 1960, projected him into the ranks of the country’s most innovative writers.

What do you look for in a potential partner? 1. aura of mossy darkness 2. charm of dusty bookstores 3. scent of cheese & mystery 4. sophisticated Muppet vibes

SCOTUS: there’s nothing in the rule book that says a dog can’t play basketball CITIZENS: what about the constitutional amendment that specifically bans dogs from playing basketball SCOTUS: no that’s about something else

There’s a special relief when you click on an article you want to read and it turns out to be a podcast because that means you can simply click away and never think about it again. It’s like a snow day.

Whoa. Great lineup on both stages this year.

As a Gen X person, this is exactly the sort of erasure we thrive on. Obviously, I'll be taking the quiz.

Can confirm this but for microphones. Muttering to myself on the end of the couch 'FET47' or '421's are not side-address mics' while the family ignores me.

My partner is HVAC guy, and when we’re watching movies and shows, he’ll watch someone walking through a house and he’ll quietly say things like “Honeywell thermostat.”

We hand out treats on the sidewalk, and I keep a cooler of beer and box of wine with me. Hand out drinks to anyone who looks like they could use one.

This Halloween I will once again reiterate my belief that society needs adult trick or treating where we hand each other boneless chicken breasts, promotional codes for Hulu, and wood filler

As well-meaning publishers try to navigate the coming storm of state laws against diversity, I hope they'll consider Timothy Snyder's Rule #1 (from his slim book ON TYRANNY).

i just feel that numbers stations would be better run by innovative startups and private investment rather than some bloated government bureaucracy

I was one of the people who talked to NPR about the last Sonic Youth concert in the USA. Also, I recorded and mixed the show and there's a new LP out of it. https://www.npr.org/2023/08/16/1193876736/sonic-youth-last-concert-oral-history

Having a horrible crisis as I realize that I would be a bad ghost. Thinking of all my good ghost friends and raging with jealousy, even a sense of betrayal.

Ian MacKaye, bad ghost. Guy Picciotto, great ghost.
