"with Claude, we will no longer need lightly stoned weirdos who work at record stores because they are neurodivergent as hell and some band you've never heard of but is about to change your life is their special interest" these tech bros really hate anyone who was cooler than them in high school

The Tubes cover of "My head is my only house (unless it rains)" by Captain Beefheart still sounds absolutely fresh, if you told me this just came out I'd believe you youtu.be/70w2ANA78oY?...

Philly Phreaks, we're playing with @tedleo.bsky.social on Thursday at Ardmore Music Hall. We're playing songs from the last two records. The band sounds MEAN. Free Palestine. War crimes for Genocide. Ceasefire now. Let's get together ✊

As a former pretentious little shit who grew out of it, rationalists (et al) annoy the piss out of me because they are adults with the mentality of tweens - they are somehow still convinced they are the greatest geniuses who have ever walked the earth. It is the worldview of an arrogant baby.

Sometimes a drug trip is a profound experience where you realize that you’ve been carrying pain in your heart for years, that you can forgive yourself. Other times you come up with a concept called “gay money” (money that’s gay) and you text your friend “gay money” days later. Both are healing. ❤️‍🩹

Ok so it took me driving to Montreal to figure it out but I think I have a pretty solid solution that also lets me get cute with the types (2 non exhaustive enums in a union) and avoid pointer soup!

i don’t think you get to simultaneously call yourself a leftist and champion ai. i am not the socialism police. i am not lieutenant engels. but i don’t know how you can square away ‘mass theft of labour in the name of further labour exploitation’ as anything other than deeply orthodox capitalism.

How I’ve Been Pronouncing It (Feat. Foghorn Leghorn, my… roommate?)
Comic. I’m at my desk, leaning over to the doorway, saying “Hey! Foghorn! Foghorn Leghorn! Get in here!”
Foghorn Leghorn is walking past the doorway, “Boy, I tell ya, I tell ya, not so loud, boy. What, I say, I say, what d’ya want?”
Next panel, I’m gesturing to my computer. “How do I find that really good manga you recommended? It’s an anime now? I keep getting Halloween costumes.” Foghorn leans over my chair, “well, boy, I say, I say, you ain’t typin the entire title.”
Last panel, I turn around- “you said ‘witch hat.’ Foghorn gets in my face- “open your ears, boy!! ‘Witch Hat Atelier, I tell ya! I tell ya ‘Atelier,’ I tell ya’”

From Sloan, Eric’s Trip, and Plumtree to Alvvays and a new generation of DIY bands, Atlantic Canada has long punched above its weight in guitar pop. Trace the scene from the ’90s Halifax Pop Explosion to the artists carrying it forward today.

This is a terrible time for systems thinkers, in part because nobody wants to listen to systems thinkers about stuff they’ve been saying for years, so now systems thinkers have to watch deeply incurious people reinvent systems thinking from first principles

I find it very funny that "AI" boosters like Gyges are trying to pounce on "yeah, the AI *Safety* people are weird and we shouldn't listen to them" like that isn't the core team that built ALL their favorite toys. You will not make "AI" products fine by shooing out the clowns just now.

Vibe cleanse time, so I made Steely Dan in Lego form. (+ Michael McDonald and Jay Graydon being tortured during the recording of "Peg.")
I made a Lego recreation of the cover of Aja, along with a studio sound board for Donald and Walter to be really high behind. On the other side, Michael McDonald is recording backing vocals for Peg and Jay Graydon is preparing for a zest guitar solo. You're welcome and yes I am incredible thank you.
