Aw snap. Guess we're doing this.

A little Sunday Maritime Pilot'ing. It went far better than it had any right to for 11 years off.

@jefftiedrich.bsky.social feel free to use this in your next substack.

Elon Musk giving Donnie the ol' South African Emerald Mine

It would be a shame if you took this image and shared it everywhere.

Hot take: every audio plugin should have a delta button.

Sticker on the back of a pickup truck this morning:

TRUMP 20*24

"This fuckin' guy...."

I get closer.

TRUMP 20*24
(Years in prison)

"Lol, never mind."

A more accurate title for A Complete Unknown, having just finished watching, would be "Bob Dylan: Portrait of a Proto-Fuckboy."

Hot take: when a meeting ends 2 minutes early and the phrase "give you time back" is used, you should be able to collect those minutes towards additional PTO time. There's easily a couple extra days to be had here.

RIP Jamie Muir. You were the most comically perfect foil to Bob Fripp's eternal sour puss during Crim's Lark's Tongues era.

I've kind of slept on this channel strip. I tend to stick with an SSL when I reach for one and the UI for this guy is kind of heavy on the skeumorphic goofiness but I've been using it on overheads lately because the limiter on this is actually quite good. #music #recording #pluginalliance #amek9099

If you read all four KISS autobiographies it's like Rashomon for idiots.

My absolute favorite part of Paul's is his story about writing Love Gun in his head, sitting on a plane. To Paul, it's a story of his songwriting prowess, to us it's an admission of how much time he spends thinking of metaphors for his dick.

It is 2032, Elon has crashed the X Banking servers trying to post a 69 meme, & you haven't been able to pay rent for 2 weeks. You've also been fired because you can't pay your Tesla Door Handle subscription fee, rendering you unable to drive to your job that has made remote work punishable by death.

Are you even doing tape emulation if there isn't an animated reel of tape eating CPU cycles while you do it? #mcdsp #recording #logicpro

Haha Phaser -> Auto Panner go brrrrrrr

Get in, loser. We're having a compressor shootout. #music #compressor #logicpro #uad #klanghelm

Hey look what happened as I was typing this! 🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

And before you ask, yes, I've tinkered extensively with the motions zones, sensitivity and other various settings. I'm far from tech illiterate, I think these things just kinda suck. Thankfully I like animals.

I'm convinced that if a serial killer broke in and murdered everyone in here, the sync module would sprout legs and flee the scene of the crime and my entire legacy would be 7 pages of true crime podcast results if you searched my last name.

They can record literally every single cat that walks by, but somehow missed the 10 -15 seconds of someone walking up my driveway, and ripping one of my cameras off the side of my house that overlooked my cars, leaving me only 3 seconds of the palm of their hand. Thanks.

They have an uncanny knack for not working at the times you actually want them to. Motion at your back door? A spinning wheel for you. Fuck off, pal. What if instead we sent you 800 consecutive videos of a branch moving 50 feet away as a surprise when you wake up?

I'm glad that Amazon's Blink cams are good at capturing random cats and wildlife that wander into my yard because they seem to be a complete and utter failure at anything even remotely resembling security. 🧵

Jupiter is an all-time top 10 for me. It was kind of mind blowing that a "local" band went and made such an amazing departure of an album in a scene that was not going to appreciate it.

Start your day right by smashing snare drums into Space Echoes.

Maritime Pilot hangs at Obriens last night. Good times.

The inevitable flame out between Suck L'Orange and Ketamine Elmo is going to be one of the few truly entertaining things to happen in the next few years.

I assumed you meant case candy, and in that context, you were still correct haha

My absolute all-time favorite Reverb listing I ever saw was some masking tape scavenged off the back of a 50's strat pickguard that they had listed for a few hundred bucks.

Wrongo is a band only in theory, and it's really more or less three friends that have played a million shows together saying "it's be weird to see what would happen if we made an album together..."

This is what happened and it was a lot of fun.

When time travel becomes a thing I want to visit 16 year old me in 1993 and then laugh maniacally while returning to my time machine after telling them how much money they will make in 2025 and they think we're rich.
