I ride my ebike all winter long in Massachusetts, because I cannot drive due to poor eyesight. I could take ubers all winter but that's wasteful and I can make the trip myself. I'm anything but unserious, and there are plenty of us.

Yes! And many streaming services have lousy pause UXes that dim half the screen and / or superimpose text

Yet another amazing show thanks to the Cercle youtube channel. Just impeccable stuff. Not your average techno, and so beautifully set and shot and recorded www.youtube.com/watch?v=cxvd...

Here to counter-program all the election year doom and gloom with the single most rapturous and sublime musical performance I have discovered in the last few years. Headphones on, strap in and soar to the heavens - www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5oZ...

I just bought some music gear that I'm very excited about, and while I know I'll get a crapton of use out of it I still feel guilty. My brain won't shut up about wanting to create things, but then I try to feed it and it makes me feel bad. WTF

Song 176, โ€œSympathy for the Devilโ€ by the Rolling Stones, part 3: โ€œEvery Cop is a Criminal and All the Sinners Saintsโ€ For those who havenโ€™t heardย the announcement I posted , songs from this point on will sometimes be split among multiple episodes, so this is the third part of a multi-episode look at the song โ€œSympโ€ฆ

Just wanted to congratulate @andrewhickey.500songs.com for another incredible episode. I can imagine how hard this was to write, but it's another shining example of his research, perspective, and laid back but scholarly style. Check it out -

I wasn't sure at first but this is the platform in which I feel the least traumatized so maybe I'll stick with it

Say what you want about Phish, but they have survived so many trends that they have officially become the elder statesman of the thing that every modern band is trying to do.

Your podcast is so thoughtful, impeccably-researched and considerate of the potential sensitivities of your audience that you serve as an amazing example of counter-programming to what that audience is used to. I'm sure it's not what you wanted, but we need as many models of decency as we can get!

I love this take on it!! I think it's also just familiarity. She's been around it for so long that she's inured to the noise. :) She knows tons and tons about me so I don't feel slighted in the least, it's just a funny observation.

I've been married 20 years and have been writing songs for 30 years and I'm pretty sure my wife could not name 5 of my songs

As an artist who cares about human-made art I did a bit of curiosity research about how AI videos are made. The common theme is that the user had to re-prompt the AI engine many many times before getting a halfway decent result. Basically they are piling waste upon waste.

Me biking in a pedestrian area: these rubes. These utter dolts!

Me walking among bicycles: these psychopaths. These utter narcissists!
