Chris ☕ @mixingchris.bsky.social · 05/09/2026I suspect in my case it's that I grew up 60 miles from the Alabama border, and much of my dialect comes from my dad, who grew up south of Atlanta, so for metrics like this one I'm a confusing admixture of South and Deep South. 010
Chris ☕ @mixingchris.bsky.social · 05/09/2026It gave me Alabama, which is offensive if I'm around other southerners, but pretty true if I'm around non-southerners. 120
Chris ☕ @mixingchris.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Ah yeah, back when Twitter was actually social. I think Schilling took part in that conversation, too. RIP. 020

Chris ☕ @mixingchris.bsky.social · 07/07/2026I read an Edward Abbey novel on the plane the other day, and it was so deeply and disturbingly misogynistic that it ruined my fond teenage memories of The Monkey Wrench Gang. I think I'll leave King to my distant memories as well. 020

Chris ☕ @mixingchris.bsky.social · 13/05/2026Over on Twitter, I'm working my way backwards in time musically from the 90s to... I dunno, the 30s? I'm currently lost in the vast sea of the 60s (as I type, Bobby Bland is singing yearningly). So if you have any 60s recommendations, I'll gladly take 'em. 000

Chris ☕ @mixingchris.bsky.social · 07/05/2026My one major criticism is that if you're listening to it for the first time, listen all the way through, THEN break it down. I cannot imagine hearing songs for the first time this way. 110
Chris ☕ @mixingchris.bsky.social · 07/05/2026This is a fascinating genre of content, and I can't quite tell what to think of it, but I do wish I could hear that for the first time again. Also I yelled at the screen, "It IS feedback!" 120

Chris ☕ @mixingchris.bsky.social · 28/02/2026This is the legacy of liberal support for Iraq. The invasion of Iraq, justified as "preemptive" purely on pretense, made this possible. That set the precedent, as it was obvious it would to anyone paying attention. 110

Chris ☕ @mixingchris.bsky.social · 23/02/2026Granted, you can still get better Texas peaches on the side of the road from some random stand on the side of a highway in the hill country than at HEB, but if you don't have time to make the drive, goddamn they're good at the grocery store too. 010
Chris ☕ @mixingchris.bsky.social · 23/02/2026Look, I'm not one to be a Texas chauvinist, but if you buy Texas peaches in season at HEB, the average one you get is going to be a transcendent experience. I assume this is true of Piggly Wiggly or wherever in Georgia with their peaches in season, too. 220
Chris ☕ @mixingchris.bsky.social · 22/02/2026Some species of toothed whales not only have culture, which you can see in primates and some birds as well, but they also have the clearest examples of direct teaching in the animal kingdom (e.g., the way orcas teach various cultural hunting techniques). 020
