I’m convinced that roughly 20% of my Instagram followers are there solely to read the hate comments on my videos. I admit, the insults can be very entertaining and creative.

if you brush your teeth before grocery shopping, you’ll do less impulse buying and spend less money. This is something I learned with age.

There is now a chik white t-shirt, but I didn’t put my name on it because I’m uncomfortable with the idea of using people as walking billboards. Nevertheless, I’d love you to buy the shirt. chikw.etsy.com

The problem with a lot of “experimental music” is that it takes itself way too seriously.

Here's a really important conversation for Canadians to hear. Carney's investment summit has been getting a pass in Canadian media. It shouldn't. @breachmedia.ca youtu.be/J-iiK0FyPcg?...

"people are anthropomorphizing LLMs because they are so astonishingly good at processing human thought and language" people will anthropomorphize a chair if you put the stitches in the right place.

Here are a few bandcamp codes for the guitar album I put out earlier this year. If this music satisfies you, consider ordering the CD from the label. p2fq-xjqv 668j-gex4 u3n7-3uaa xa5a-cvub q96g-h8ax redeem: chikwhite.bandcamp.com/yum chikwhite.bandcamp.com/album/face-a...

My dog ate the cat’s puke last night. This morning, I awoke to melodious borborygmus coming from the dog’s belly. I got a contact mic and recorded her stomach while I fell back asleep. I’m now composing music around this recording. I’d been waiting for a bolt of inspiration. It finally arrived.

As part of Canada’s retaliatory actions against the United States, work-permit-free access to Canada for American performers should be revoked until Canadian performers are given the same access to the United States. No offence to my American friends, but this trade imbalance is ridiculous.
