The other night while he was streaming, I told @devonkaysolutions.bsky.social that the only vinyl they've put out that I don't have is their old ass split with Ambulance Review. Devon offered to send me one of his, but apparently I do have it. It's very good. Thanataphobia absolutely FUCKS.

So I'm one of those intolerable millennials in my early 40s who quit drinking because of the ole ticker. That said, when we go to the gator park and everyone else gets giant 32oz beers, I'm much happier with my giant 32oz slushee... Especially since it's like 105°

I need someone more knowledgeable about pro/intl soccer to explain to me: Are there always this many injuries for show?

Listen, I know they aren't a ska band, but I think @cheekface.bsky.social would fit in on the Supernova Ska Festival really well. Just saying...

Do soccer players usually fall down this much? Just feels like a lot.

Perfect level of high, watching world cup (which I do not care about) with two dudes who really care and honestly, it's fine

I feel like the @npr.org shout out to @badoperation.bsky.social should put them in contenion for a Tiny Desk performance....

If ever there were a sign that this is the end times, it's Butthole Surfers putting out a solidly mid song with a trash AI slop video. I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed.

Hey @randomhand.co.uk - is there an age limit for Handfest in Sept? My 9 year old wants to go...

Two years (California) sober today. Also, two years basically caffeine free (just the occasional tea here and there) as well. Who wants to guess which was harder to give up?

This, friends, is what you call the start to a good, good day. New @badoperation.bsky.social is always an instant buy. And that the @devonkaysolutions.bsky.social drop is a live one... FUCK YES.

For all those assholes that slapped the Biden stickers on gas pumps that said "I did that!", I hope you have some of those locked and loaded for the current admin, cuz that dumbfuck's war started 3 days ago and my gas is already up ~40¢ a gallon... And counting.

One of my favorite things about the Olympics is when USA wins gold and one or more of the athletes CLEARLY do not know the lyrics to the banner. It's so hilarious to me. Wonder if it happens to other countries?

This new, surprise @gruberites.bsky.social album fucking RIPS. It is all over the place in the best possible way. I kept having to check my music app, thinking it moved on to something else like it does at the end of an album. Duped me like 4 times. Fan-fuciing-tastic work Grubes.

Listen, I know I should've been more on it, but finding out @dropkickmurphys.com are coming to Charlotte only a week before the show, only to find it's sold out and tickets over a hundred bucks each BUMS ME THE FUCK OUT. Fuck Ticketmaster and their allowance of scalping and gouging.

So I'm in New Orleans for the weekend and keep seeing National Guard walking around. I've made 3 observations: 1. They're always in groups of three. 2. They all seem pretty young (like, in their mid-20's) 3. They always look bored as hell. Feels like a gross waste of taxpayer money...

The most aggravating thing about this Verizon (and any) service outage is how few compensate the customer for the inconvenience. GFiber automatically credits my account anytime there's an outage, but I've been without VZW now for like 7 hours and I probably won't get squat.

Hey @badoperation.bsky.social - I'm gonna be in NOLA next weekend. Never been. What are your must-dos in the city? I'm not a big drinker but love live music and good eats!

Solid Friday night: - Watched Rudolph with the fam - Put kiddo to bed - ate gummy - spent $150 on Bandcamp Friday (shout out to @devonkaysolutions.bsky.social @spanishlovesongs.bsky.social @bumsyandmoochers.bsky.social @deadpioneers.bsky.social @cliffdiver.bsky.social et al) - slept like a log

Found out today that my kid's drum teacher asked her what band she wanted to learn a song from next and she said @flyingraccoonsuit.bsky.social. So it looks like she's gonna learn Take This With You!

My theory (and I'm sure I'm not alone) is that they aren't actual ICE or law enforcement...

As an old punk, I'm refreshed hearing songs about parenting/fatherhood. So far, Call Me Malcolm and The Wonder Years have done it really well. Curious to find more...

Digging Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man so far but they're way too heavy handed in their MCU references to not be considered MCU proper...

Big shout-out to @justinclonehero.bsky.social - I've been stuck home alone with some medical shit for the past 2 weeks and finally had time to get CH up and running on my laptop and these charts he has up are a Ska fan's dream!

You know you're in a weird place when the lyrics to Wake the Dead by Comeback Kid make you cry.

So like... Sciatica nerve pain is pretty awful. It feels like my leg has been twisted all the way around backwards and my brain just wants to keep trying to fix it at my own peril. Fuck this.

So I'm stuck at home for the foreseeable future due to some serious, crippling sciatica issues (can't drive or ride in a car ATM) and I figured "hey I was stuck home for a whole year... I'll be ok..."

Just saw some conservative in a thread about an actual murder tell his people to "wake up" and, honestly, as an English teacher and contrarian I feel like he should've found better wording... Irony is completely lost on these people.
