it is happening again
This entire weekend
Yeah, I mean… I came here to escape those remaining idiots. Kind of defeats the purpose. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Happy 10th anniversary of the night I was interviewed by a talking squirrel puppet alongside Mark Robinson from Unrest and a guy who claimed he was "Gene Simmons from the rock brand KISS."

I absolutely refuse to believe that was a decade ago.
The Washington State University Cougar Marching Band freakin' played Trogdor at their halftime show this weekend! And made ME! My husky head finally gets its due! 50 freakin' yards high man!
Like it or not this technology is here to stay and if you don’t use it you’ll fall behind in your industry
Listen to the wise Mr. @michaelazerrad.bsky.social. Jenn is a real one, and her new Flock of Dimes LP (on @subpop.bsky.social) is phenomenal. I caught her with her current FoD backing band last night in Somerville, MA, and the sold-out show was deeply moving. Not to be missed.
See you all at Sleeping Village this evening, for the third and final Chicago show of this Silkworm run.
Doors at 8, Dianogah on at 9.
Here's a video @bsearles.bsky.social shot last night of a Comsat Angels cover...

Oh no. What a legend. All living X-Men fans have been affected by his X-Factor run in some way, whether by reading the books themselves or through osmosis, via their impact on the universe at large.
“At least I’m not retiring anytime soon” is certainly a thought I’ve never had before. But here we are.

Done! Not the first, but also from Boston. :-) Felt good to use my telnet client again.

they are also really, really stupid
AI-powered auto-captioning really is getting better every day. #thisisradioclap
Holy hell. Utterly infuriating.
Sigh. Missed it. Will keep my fingers crossed for another printing.
I've seen Ratboys play six unreleased songs from their upcoming new album over three shows the past few months, and even if all the other songs suck it'll be on lots of end of year lists. Five reposts (modest goal, but would be five more than 99% of my posts get 🫠) and I'll post a thread of them.
Yeah, the couple they played in Boston on Monday were excellent. Really looking forward to release date details.
This is what being an ally looks like. Thank you, @keating.house.gov.
Well done, @keating.house.gov
A true ally doesn’t just watch—they stand up.
I’ve accidentally misgendered someone at my daughter’s school before. It happens. The moment I realized, I apologized and made sure not to do it again.
Rep Keith Self did this on purpose. He meant to be hurtful.
Becky Burke of Book Island (a picture book publisher in the UK founded by my fellow Tokarczuk translator Greet Pauwelijn) was "detained" by ICE at the Canadian border on 2/28. Her father asked that her story be shared in case someone can help her. He writes:
@billybragg.bsky.social wrote a song about this very subject after reading the book mentioned by @outofthegates.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxdk...
