Maybe. Something happened where they decided to lean into some crazy-ass Sci-Fi insanity.

More than once, I've repurposed his concept of "thump & pop & sizzle" in my own writing.

We we like 70 yards away, so no idea. Wouldn't be surprised. I do know that we saw the show on the 9th.

Indeed I was. At that point, I'd heard of Prince -- DIRTY MIND was a critical smash -- but hadn't heard him. Kinda sucked watching the assholes thrown things at jim.

After the police shut down a quasi(at best)-legal DKs gig at a farm house in Sanger, Kirk and I walked up to him and invited him to go back to KFSR for an interview. He politely declined.

I watched both my parents struggle to quit cigarettes for years and resolved that I would never smoke even one. And I never have, even though I spent my twenties in smoke-filled nightclubs and nearly all my friends -- especially the women -- smoked.

Hotel TV has motion smoothing as an unchangable default and there’s an ep of THE OFFICE on that looks like a colorized version of DARK SHADOWS and why did this become a default way people watch TV?

Here's a thing I learned about @askspectum.bsky.social . If you need to disconnect even ONE SINGLE DAY after your billing cycle starts, they will charge for a FULL MONTH OF SERVICE Even if you're moving out of town and CAN'T USE THOSE SERVICES. Spectrum sucks sucks sucks sucks sucks.

I started taping it from the start because I was convinced it was never gonna last and I could watch it forever. I was half right.

I was probably out seeing a friend's band play that night, so I taped it like I taped every episode of THE SIMPSONS in the 90s and watched it the next day, age 29.

Finder still isn't as good as Windows Explorer, but it's much better than it used to be, and 98% of all work functions are likely through MS Office or Google, so it's either launch a browser or find an icon. Besides, if you get stuck, AI can help you!!

Not a whole hell of a lot of difference these days, says a guy who uses both all day every day. The most difficult thing is that the copy/paste keys are in slightly different places on the keyboards. And native apple mouses don't have a right-click button.

I found a vinyl copy a couple of years ago, and while I'm not always in the mood for it -- it takes me right back to the dark days of late 2016 -- when I do listen, it remains tremendous.

University of San Francisco used to host "record swaps" in the mid-1990s that were rife with CD boots.

I'm reading THE DISAPPEARERS right this moment and one of the reasons I'm enjoying it is that the people in the book had a wayyyyyyy different 1980s/1990s than I had.
