Why did I click this
As a closet fan when I was a teen, the new album rules.
Itβs an extreme struggle this week.
Tell me of others! I'm pretty obsessed with this style.
Also, I want to get back to doing this newsletter. Life has just been really big lately. Hopefully I can put some brain power towards it soon.
Another song that I think fits this style that I didn't mention in the newsletter is Outlines by @alunageorge.bsky.social.

I've always enjoyed Harry Styles for what his music is, but this new single, Aperture, is a killer track. It falls into the "Lazy Dancing" style that I wrote about a bit in my music newsletter a few months ago.

This is what I love(d) about Keyforge.
This is me with friends when talking about streaming. Kanopy and Hoopla are so good!
So, um, Iβm not necessarily a _new_ parent, but one of my middle kids is unconvinced that thereβs a chain on the bottom of a snare drum, and the struggle is real to not try and prove them wrong. I used to do the touring band thing, I showed him a picture on Google, no dice. The pain.

I mean βandβ, not βofβ. Am tired
Wizard of Glass has been my favorite so far, but that does not discount how good Wolves of the Calla is.
Also I am very due for a new tattoo and Iβm pretty sure itβs going to be Dark Tower related
I am truly enjoying my journey toward The Dark Tower. I never get bored reading it as King gently pulls me along by a thread.
I will have to take a slight detour to βSalemβs Lot though. I feel very compelled to understand Callahanβs story ahead of what comes next.

Finished @stephenking.bsky.socialβs Wolves of the Calla today. And as always after a Dark Tower book, I canβt stop thinking about it.
I am constantly amazed with what King can get away with making his reader go along with. Every time I try to describe the series to someone I feel like a mad person

Oh man I almost missed this one! Stoked to check it out.

This is a really cool idea. Looking it up and there are 2 sequels? I need to dive in
Iβm working in an office now after working from home for nearly 6 years. There have been a lot of adjustments, but one I didnβt expect was the anxiety of someone seeing album artwork on my monitor while I browsed my Apple Music library. So I made this: github.com/hmhrex/modes...
I can see this on my TL or whatever itβs called here

Struggling with the death of Tim Very of @manchesterorch.bsky.social today. I didnβt know the guy personally, so I feel a little silly. But being a husband, and dad, and nearing my 40βs, itβs made me suddenly realize how short life can be.
Huge mood. Been here many times haha
Looking for a backend engineer? π
I studied the problem a few years ago and found that there really isnβt any good solution without retailer buy-in. They donβt care because the money looks the same in their bank account. I did come up with an interesting solution, but unless retailers want to pay per transaction, it wonβt work.
That dude is everywhere.
