You know, the thing is, I had drafted this piece a month ago, and then never published it, because I thought maybe it was too mean.

I’m at a Mavis Auto getting a tire looked at. The tech just approached another customer. “Rick? Your rear shock absorber EXPLODED!” Emphasis sort of mine. Fingers crossed I’m just a patch!

The GTA VI sneak peek was incredible. As someone who lives in Florida, I was blown away at how everything just "looks right." Example: When Jason and Lucia walk to their convertible, the palm fronds on the bushes behind the car are half dead, just like they would be for real. Love the detail!

When is someone going to remake Chaplin's "Modern Times"? Everything now feels like getting stuck in the gears of some giant machine. The comedy that can be mined from automated phone systems and ordering boards alone! I should probably start writing it...

Give one example of an election where more votes were cast than voters registered. Oh, you can't? It will never stop shocking me that people not only listen to this bag of shit but take him seriously. It reflects poorly on YOU, not him. Stop being morons.

I always say Abbey Road is my favorite Beatles album, but I have probably listened to Revolver the most out of their entire catalog. Maybe I should reconsider?

Trump being legally required to pay nearly six million dollars for a sex crime he committed didn’t engage our media as much as when Biden stuttered.

Completely obsessed with the wave of "European World Cup fans discovering America for the first time" videos currently flooding social media. So charming, innocent almost. I appreciate the reminder that this is an amazing country despite, you know, the current situation.

WFH Diary: I'm four hours in laying out the monthly newsletter. No shower. Singularly focused on getting this thing done before I go on PTO for the rest of the week. Chip walks in. "Dada, do you like Imagine Dragons?" "What? Huh? Um, well, you know ..." "Imagine Dragon these nuts across your face."

It's show week! We hope to see you out at NoiseMakers, Inc. on Saturday Night. To get everyone in the mood, here's a lovely take on "New Year's Eve" from the last time we played Noisemakers back in March.

If anyone is still wondering why people like me felt Trump deserved zero credit for the ceasefire, here is your reason. Like everything else Trump claims, it was never real.

#MAGA = "Make Argentina Great Again." "We love you and support you — but your suggestion to buy beef from Argentina to stabilize beef prices would be an absolute betrayal to the American cattle rancher," a beef producer wrote on X." Economic collapse couldn't happen to a more deserving people.

I keep hearing talk about a recession/stock market downturn next year. It's imminent, folks. The stock market collapse is going to be epic. They're milking you for every last penny before pulling the plug. (Full disclosure: I pulled all my money out about three weeks ago.)

Today's From The Archives is "Time Traveler" performed at a backyard birthday party for our good friend Steve. This is from April 1, 2017. Video quality = not great. The performance is fun, though. 😅 youtu.be/jj4zHH8Ibds?...

I frequently say you don't need to protest. You don't! There are a thousand other ways to push back on fascism if protesting doesn't feel comfortable or safe for you! But if you CAN go, this 10/18 #NoKings thing is really a key protest to participate in. Be part of it, friends.

I don't play video games as much as I used to, but when I do it's almost always tower defense. The Kingdom Rush series is a personal fave, so I've been eagerly awaiting this one. Finally! I'll see you on the battlefield...

Today's "From The Archives" goes back to almost the very beginning of the band. We'd been a group for just over a year when we played this gig at the now-defunct Iberian Rooster in DTSP. The song is one of my early faves (we never play it anymore), and we've been chasing these visuals ever since...

I have no sense of how this played to normal, non-politics obsessed Americans. I assume the MAGA base LOVED the fact-free performative anger. What about the rest of the country? Because this was gross, folks. Just slurping her boss repeatedly. I look forward to her trial.
