Lying in bed on the verge of tears because everything is overwhelming right now, so I’m bombarding friends with cute cat videos.

He’s accused the CIA of marginalizing rock music. Like, god forbid the culture move on. You know what the kids love? Listening to music by a 60-year old malcontent. 🙄 Rock music embraced pissing your parents off, then hip hop did it better. He’s mad they’re no longer doing it his preferred way.

This is a post about William Patrick Corgan, Jr.

I’m so fucking tired of whiny entitled white men and their podcasts. No, it’s not some vast conspiracy, you’re just an asshole and you repel people.

Still remember the rush of the first time I saw the video for “West End Girls.”

Don’t give me any ideas! 😁

I listen to CDs in the car. In December I loaded a small binder with New Order’s complete output, and today I finished. I started right back over with Movement.

I love this song! Epic Phil.

I love this time of day, when my view feels like a synthwave record cover. #synthwave #sanfrancisco

I was reading about it last night! 😊

Hahahaha I love that movie!

It’s pretty good! Ken Berry and Sandy Duncan…and Jake!

I also watched Escape To Witch Mountain (1975) for the first time. I wouldn’t have been allowed to see it when I was a kid because it has “witch” in the title. UFO mania really was a thing in the ‘70s.

Been watching Disney’s live action ‘70s movies as comfort TV. I saw The Cat From Outer Space (1978) at a drive-in when it was new. I’d forgotten both McLean Stevenson and Harry Morgan were in it after/concurrent with MASH. I love Zunar J-5, aka Jake.

A little story about the Melvins, Mr. Bungle and me So I’ve just finished up a couple of interviews with Buzz Osbourne and Dale Crover of the Melvins, one of the greatest bands of time and space — more about that piece when it runs! Both…

Two different people have mentioned Mike Patton to me this morning, so it’s time to reshare my favorite-ever concert write-up, by @nedraggett.bsky.social. @steadystate.bsky.social was there, too. 😁

Soul Coughing. Niiiiiiice.

Part of the reason I won’t do streaming!

Yes

I’ve been obsessed with the VLA since the movie Contact.

All the Saturday morning customers at my favorite dispensary are so nice and chill. I wonder why…? 🤔

New Order: “Ceremony” Read Mark Richardson’s review of the track.

This is why events unnerve me.

That’s nearly everything I make. 😅

Yeah, there are 5 Michelin star restaurants on the street where Honor Market is!

We have him to thank for 10cc. 🥺

Honor Market in Yountville, which is a gas station! Yes, Michelin star gas station hot dogs. It’s next to R+D Kitchen, who makes the food. Only 4 toppings, and homemade buns. I’ll be back!

We drove an hour outside of San Francisco for these hot dogs.

Ever had a Michelin star hot dog? 🤤

Post a pic you took, no context, to bring some zen to the feed.

Just finished watching Wake Up, Dead Man again. Of all the Knives Out mysteries, it may have the most satisfying resolution. I hope Rian keeps making these!

If JD/NO gets the nod, I predict the band will not show, and allow former member Peter Hook to accept, with his current touring tribute act playing songs by both bands (Love Will Tear Us Apart and Blue Monday).
