My favorite album of 2025, full of Miami Vice and GTA vibes anywhere. It's Cosmopolis by one of the synth legends @miaminights1984.bsky.social . 😎🤘🤘🤘
My favorite song of 2025, one of the best synthrock songs ever, albeit a cover, from Chroma Cloud. 😎🤘🤘🤘
Happy New Year 2026 to everyone. 😎✨
As usual by sharing a good song for the new year, it's New Year's Day by Sheridan Black of Neaon! 😎🤘✨💎

So #synthfam, here's my #SpotifyWrapped2025 😎
Unpopular opinion: Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 3 is the darkest and most exciting episode of the whole series IMO.
For the first and only time of the century, I'll be watching Stranger Things on Christmas Day rather than the usual five basketball games and a few American football games. Netflix was nice enough to release new episodes of ST on Christmas Day. Can't wait for the series finale on New Year's Eve. 😎🤘
Unpopular opinion: Never play the number 67 in any lottery. It is hoodoo.
Unpopular opinion: Edan Dover is going to be even more popular than Ollie Wride when it comes to his new music projects of Deane and Edvn. He's IMO Ollie Wride 2.0 with a bit of Lionel Messi.

RIP Udo Kier 💔
The one and only great Yuri from C&C Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge.
"Carry on my legacy, Proselyte. Unite the world under one mind."
A rare blimp flew over the suburbs today, even on top of my home. Has the words Marty Supreme, Dream Big.
It's actually a sports comedy movie coming this Christmas in theaters.
But the question remains whether if anyone other than Asians would watch a table tennis movie?
Unpopular opinion: Queen of Eight's debut album of the same name is probably the most underrated hip-hop album of all time. Why? Because it has synthwave and cyberpunk written all over the rapping. Mainstream music deserves this!
A decade ago, Kobe's final game as a Laker and for his NBA career ended on April 13, 2016 with 60 pts against the Jazz.
Now I imagine if LeBron James final regular-season game as a Laker (if they can go to the playoffs thereafter) on April 12, 2026..... will score 60+ points against the Jazz? 🤔🤔🤔
Unpopular opinion: The Midnight's Sentinels is IMO their worst song and one of the worst synthwave songs of all time. Whoever sang that autotuned rap needs to be fired and it wasn't Tyler Lyle's voice. Stop putting junkwave rap what all other mainstream songs have today.
Unpopular opinion: Leon Lett is probably still the Father of Premature Celebrations in NFL history.😅
Two weeks ago, the Indianapolis Colts did it and today the Arizona Cardinals did it. Both the Colts and Cardinals lost their games.
C'Mon Man!
What do Cat Temper and Nina have in common? They both have cats named Willow, except both have different traits and types. 😺😸🐈
This is your daily reminder that Jerry Jones is a month older than Joe Biden. Someone needs to tell him if he's got cognitive mental decline. 🙄
Unpopular opinion: The CHP, LA County Sheriff and LAPD should have implemented grapplers in their strongest vehicles to shorten car pursuits. Some other states in a few police agencies have already have them and they are effective.
Abiotic Factor looks like a retro Half-Life mod on Unreal Engine 5. Not likely to work on my PC with an old GeForce GTX 1050 Ti.

I don't fucking care if Nintendo Switch 2 is the best selling console of all time, it came with a lying catch. They pulled what Valve did on Steam, instead of saying owning the device and using their stuff, you actually have a license to use it. Break the ToS and they disable it.
Two nights ago, I dreamt of Lady Gaga this time in a more casual fashion but in the same age as I am. Strange why I was living once again in a luxury environment, something I seldom landed on. There were other people IDK who they were. Apparently no singing in this one.
Probably the most expensive giveaway yet by Epic, Civilization VI Platinum Edition is the next weekly freebie at the Epic Games Store, and it comes with all DLCs and expansion packs!
Is it just me #synthfam or Nina Blair's the only one in the synthwave community talking about family, love and cats instead of music? She's the only person to have ever said that to this day. No one else talks about it, though I do know most of them have private lives.
Here it is #synthfam, the best of all synthwave playlists with flavor, my version of the Ultimate Top 250 Synthwave songs ever. This does not include 80s originals except covers and this playlist will change without notice. Enjoy! 😎🤘

The Squad Game ending is a fucking disaster. It also sets up a possible American series version of it after Cate Blanchett's surprising cameo.
I won't watch another terrible TV show where enemies have won.
Mission Impossible was not like that.
RIP Lalo Schifrin💔
A music legend of themes ranging from Cool Hand Luke (the one that made the news theme to ABC's Eyewitness News history) to that epic catchy Mission Impossible theme that's still heard today.
He will be missed.🙏
