It's Bandcamp Friday and it's the holiday season so there's nothing better than this album for you and yours etc:
cannedhamm.bandcamp.com/album/sincer...

There are so many people on Instagram I want to ask, "How'd you get so many followers when you are so mediocre?"

I can't think of anything stupider than AI wearables and don't even know what that is. But it's stupid.

"May I see a menu?"
"It's online."

This Friday at 8 30 pm at Elysian Theatre, Los Angeles. The Birthday Experience is such an immensely fun show! Free if it's your birthday week. Info and tickets here:

I Love LA: a show made by awful people pretending to be awful people seemingly designed to make us feel old, ugly, poor, lonely, and anxious. How much did they pay to film at Tenants of the Trees, a place where women were roofied, so that they could make an in joke about getting roofied?

There are knockoffs of the New York subway TikTok interview guy looking for "hot takes" in every city now so be careful!

I have a higher bar than you (One Battle is the first PT I've liked since Inherent Vice) but for new movies I really loved Bring Her Back.

Guillermo Del Toro: GGBM
Good guy, bad movies

It's real and it sucks.

a true original

So odd! And wow, a singer really does make such a huge difference! I do not want Sabbath to be a blues rock band! I wrote in Cold Glitter how they were auditioning singers in 1984 and Walter Zwol could have almost joined! But the LiveAid reunion kibboshed all new singer plans anyways.

I'm sure that some might find it funny or subversive to watch Thanksgiving but I can't imagine much worse than watching an Eli Roth movie today. Or any day.

I admit that I also hate Laugh In in general (and for spawning SNL at that) but every time Arte turns up anywhere it's grounds for disappointment. I'm excited to hear this.

I love that special. I went to see it and 3 of the 5th Dimension were there in person AND they autographed my copy of The Magic Garden. Arte Johnson sucks though.

Vancouver Fire Rescue Services responded to 54 overdoses last Friday - the most in a single day in the department's history. Averaged 16 per day in May.

There has been a surge in ODs reported all across the province in the past few weeks.

Most apps are only of use when taking a shit, they're pointless otherwise. All done! Bye!!!!

attachment style:
trying to not have attachments

What would the world be like if everyone asked, "Is it needed?"

LA was supposed to be my last hurrah, and my last relationship was to be, well, my last relationship. And all signs point to these things being true as I putter and drift along. So what now? Join an ashram? Do people need me to create fun -or do I need them more than they need me?

in the last 1.5 years journalistic fact-checking has become significantly harder specifically bc of this, without touching all the other ways education and knowledge-sharing are under attack rn (book bans, censorship, media industry crumbling, etc etc)

Thank you!

That role felt very true to him. And I remember reading awful things he's said in interviews before Twitter existed, Twitter just exacerbated it.

Oh god, that one book in the feminist bookstore scene: Rage In The Womb by Pamela Van Dyke
And he treats Leslie Ann Warren so terribly!

I mean, both Gun and Vampires are total asshole movies. I love them and his acting in them but I don't agree with them.

Why 2025 Was the Loneliest Year | The Tyee Connection online has rotted on the vine. With few alternatives, I’ve found myself more isolated than before.
