teemcp @teemcp.bsky.social · 05/10/2026We were kinda in it for the mischief. I wrote a 3 line program in basic that crashed computers & I committed to memory and would type into the computers at Radio Shack. 010

He is then trapped with everyone he has pissed off for a full month. 191
teemcp @teemcp.bsky.social · 28/09/2026I think this key. They assume highly structured corporate environments to be ideal & that personal lives should or will emulate them, thus providing a market for the guessing machines. 001
teemcp @teemcp.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Nah, just use an appropriate size of hammer.** ** An 8lb sledge ought to do the trick. 000
teemcp @teemcp.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Retail availability was a big factor, wasn't it? I started collecting 45s of the Motown & Philly Soul stuff I loved, but rural Canada with 1 top 40 only store made it hard. Road trips = records. About a year later, 45s disappeared, which 18yro me was certain happened just to spite me. Ah, youth... 120
teemcp @teemcp.bsky.social · 18/09/2026"Air quality's not THAT bad," he said all summer.... Just washed the outside windows and, hoo boy, we got some filth. Pulling this much dirt from something that appears clear gives me a sense of what fire season does to lungs. Yuck. 000
teemcp @teemcp.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Current state of things has me nostalgic for the command line. Sure, there's a learning curve, but once you learned it, that green monster just fucking worked. 010
teemcp @teemcp.bsky.social · 15/09/2026So, I guess it's down to Ed, his guitar, and one lighting tech that believes the moon landing was faked. 1190
teemcp @teemcp.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Yup...it can sort of happen by accident. As a kid, I collected the pejoratives & slurs bandied about in my community and filed them as synonyms, because six year old me was a fucking word nerd. No clue about the impact they could have, just concerned they might be on a test & I'd need to know 'em. 020
teemcp @teemcp.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Seen him a couple times in recent years. He has maintained his faculties and musical abilities most admirably. And as always, puts together a cracking band. 011

teemcp @teemcp.bsky.social · 09/09/2026I think that's the crux of the biscuit - They want their precious AI to have the utility of the 'net and the desirability of the iPhone, but it has neither. It's like cheating of off a C minus student, which I suppose is a step up for a D student. But for most of us, it's just fucking annoying. 051
teemcp @teemcp.bsky.social · 08/09/2026When I refreshed my music school learnings after 15yrs of not playing, Adam & David were the sweet spot of education content. Had music education YouTube existed at this level 20 years ago, I may have skipped college altogether. 010
teemcp @teemcp.bsky.social · 04/09/2026I held back, recognizing the art form to be an acquired taste. For posterity, here are the others: Psoas far, psoas good. Psoas as I was saying... Psoas the story goes. 091

teemcp @teemcp.bsky.social · 01/09/2026So much of recent corporate behaviour reads as "We fucking hate that we have to pay people to work for us." I'd love it if some virus out there mutated to only infect CEOs. 010
teemcp @teemcp.bsky.social · 28/08/2026Correct. At some point, we realize that F# and Bb just do their jobs & don't care whether you're Mozart, Prince, Bonne Raitt, or your neighbour Dave who plays piano in a Dixie band on weekends. We just wanna hear the cool shit, and that means listening wide & deep. 020

teemcp @teemcp.bsky.social · 24/08/2026This happened at my national workplace. Literally thousands of employees and hundreds of offices, borked. About 90% of the replies to the original errant reply all were "hey, don't use reply all." Required Microsoft intervention to fix & lost about 60% of the workday. 200

teemcp @teemcp.bsky.social · 14/08/2026Never really surprised when an artist or performer figures this out/ is diagnosed. Hindsight being 20/20, I think back to music school & the amount of hyperfocus & special interests put to work in service of our activities & it's a no brainer. Creative industries seem a good fit for us. 000
teemcp @teemcp.bsky.social · 14/08/2026FWIW, it's a common discussion among us Genxers that if social media & camera phones existed in our teens, we'd be unemployable/unelectable/shunned, etc. 010

teemcp @teemcp.bsky.social · 05/08/2026Normally I find context free skeet's like this entertaining & keep scrolling. This time I'm anxious & wondering "oh, no. What did we do to the moon while I slept?" 020
teemcp @teemcp.bsky.social · 04/08/2026+1 for the chaos approach to comics. I had a great aunt who volunteered at the local Catholic charity shop. A few times a year I'd get a huge box of random donated comics deemed not suitable for good catholic kids. It's how I came to love the medium without a specific fandom or favourite. 010
teemcp @teemcp.bsky.social · 01/08/2026Do we have a collective noun? Nothing against 'bunch of autistics' just wondering if there's one out there or we have to dream one up. 000

teemcp @teemcp.bsky.social · 30/07/2026If it makes you feel better, my parents were both psych nurses & I would casually browse the DSM 2(I think? It was the 70s, so whatever version was relevant). Pretty sure I was the only 6th grader who hoped Haloperidal would be on the weekly spelling quiz. Spoiler alert: it never was. 010
teemcp @teemcp.bsky.social · 28/07/2026You've got me thinking I should practice my harmony singing, just in case we're on the same flight. If I had stupid money, I would travel with a barbershop quartet for the express purpose of upstaging these bible blowhards. 100
