This song is so fucking good Hearing it live was great, hearing it on the live record was great. But this version, complete with this video, is possibly the most impressive thing this band has done in every sense It's visceral and angry and just absolutely fucking rules We are all doing it wrong.

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.

I'm now realizing I think this is the point of the mentions. I never doubted you, @cheekface.bsky.social Sorry. Just tired.

So I'm on the east coast-ish and only just heard of this place through the song and this from Axios... Just an FYI.

This is the real reason teachers don't teach for the first week... They spend it getting 30ish kids back on a school schedule.

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°
Big ass red and blue slushee

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...

Such a great show - glad to finally catch KL for more than 2 songs (my fault) But I gotta say, @badoperation.bsky.social was a religious experience. I laughed, I cried (a little, when they played Simple Melody because I find that song so fucking sad), I had an excellent time. Great dudes, too.

On my way to a show and saw an ad for his tour. Fucking wild. Legit thought it was a joke when I saw the news. Really sucks.

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.

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?

I'm pretty atheist and my 9yo isn't particularly curious, but when we got invited to a first communion and explained what it was, she was like "why would anyone let someone else put food in their mouth WITH THEIR HANDS". Facts, kid.

It's ok. Jakob's voice is hauntingly reminiscent of his dad's. Just wish Bud's politics were different. Makes them hard to want to support.

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.

Vinyl is the way... As long as it comes with download codes because I can't listen to records in my car.

My wife's cousin and her husband took their tweens to see and meet him at a casino show. Unsurprisingly, the cousin/husband have also done a Halloween costume involving blackface in the past 15 years. So that's who listens to Teddy Swims.
