I know what some of you are thinking but don't dismiss this album. Tony Levin, David Rhodes and Jerry Marotta (Peter Gabriel's band) were the studio musicians. It's a stellar example of that mid-80s synth-pop, new-wave sound. It deserves modern retro synthwave remixes. #vinyl #nowspinning

Some of the 90's best blues noise rock on this album. Dark and twisted, channels the best of The Stooges and if you're not careful while listening you might find yourself chugging whisky, trying to figure out how you can score hard drugs, and loading a shotgun. #vinyl #nowspinning

One benefit of the trade war is the removal of interprovincial barriers. Allows me to enjoy craft beers I could never get before in Ontario, like 'The Wolf' Hazy Pale Ale from Sea Change Brewing out of Edmonton, AB. Sessionable at 5.5% and brewed with Alberta oats and wheat. #BeerSky

PRFM was OK. Picked up some tchotchkes but nobody was selling vinyl. Perhaps I need to start up a side hustle and get myself a table next time. I did pick up a stack of offensive greeting cards.

Back in the 90's my buddies and I used to love Grossman's Tavern on Spadina in Toronto. Not only because the live blues was amazing, but because they ignored patrons smoking joints. We saw Sass Jordan there more than once. R.I.P. youtu.be/qjVq3OsX19Q?...

I've been banned from r/antimoneymemes for posting a comment inferring that Jeffrey Sachs is in the employ of Putin. This was in response to a video where he dumped the Ukraine War 100% at the foot of NATO and painted Putin as a tragic hero. Look what the mod team sent me... beyond the pale.

Probably better the antique mall was a bust today. It means I have a decent budget for Punk Rock Flea Market tomorrow afternoon. I should probably be doing yard work or laundry today but don't have the motivation. Just sitting here drinking espressos with the music cranked. #vinyl #nowspinning

A nearby antique mall advertised a pop-up vinyl sale today. I walked in, the lady behind the counter took one look at me and said "Vinyl Sale was Cancelled, Sorry". Do I really have 'the look' I asked? "Umm, no offence but yes, absolutely". #vinyl #nowspinning

Navistar Eh? Not surprised. They did a real number on Chatham, ON when they pulled out in 2011 to shift production to... you guessed it... that plant they just closed in Ohio along with Escobedo, Mexico. At least the 1% got their bonuses.

There is a municipal election coming up where I live. A couple years ago a guy I used to work with went semi-viral for a poster he made for the Ontario Provincial election. I've repurposed his original design accordingly and printed a sign for my lawn.

This Cornell thing brought back memories from my own time in University. A woman in one of the dorms was raped by intramural hockey players. She ended up dropping out, nothing ever happened to them. Their team name was 'Socket Hockey', an inside joke about skull-fucking an eye socket. Sickening.

I had a little idea this morning... a series of motivational (or demotivational) posters targeting the Canada - USA trade war.

A field of grapes, with a Canadian flag. The text reads:

CHANGE
We were your best customer
Then you fucked us over
Now we buy grapes from Mexico and Chile
