I still delight in the radio. It can and should be free to hear for anyone with a transistor. When it works its charms on me, chance and the moment play into hearing a transmission, a letter received. @timkabara.bsky.social In Praise of IN THE PIT WITH IZZI BAVIS: www.bruisermag.com/kabara_weird...

My 1990s friends were quick to groan; “Dude, why buy the single? You already have that song!” My retort was swift. “But, dude… what about the B-sides?” This week @timkabara.bsky.social flips over a 1993 single from Baltimore's CANDY MACHINE: www.bruisermag.com/kabara_weird...

If you are at all interested in Providence, Fort Thunder, the intersection of fine art and comics, beautiful drawings, urban exploration, or boats, I hope you'll read this, the piece I've done for The Comics Journal I am most proud of and excited about. Contains large images, best read on desktop

Marie Lorenz: Nautical Milemarker - The Comics Journal

Brian Nicholson tracked down and talked to one of the lesser-known Paper Rodeo contributors about comics, sculpture, water and exploration.

It made sense, of course. Punk shows should be held at the skatepark. @timkabara.bsky.social returns to Anything for a Weird Life with RIP AND RUN: A BALTIMORE PUNK ROCK SKATE PARK STORY: www.bruisermag.com/kabara_weird...

May you one day be the one who runs gets the gas can filled so that the generator show can happen 5 hours late so that punk youth can continue to form meaningful connections across subcultural spaces. And may you be cheered by said punk youth as you return. And may they compliment your t-shirt.

Yes. Today. The sofa has arrived. The one that is the culmination of the promise of our nation's founding.

An add for a sofa that implies the promise of the ideals of this nation's founding have finally been achieved through its manufacture and sale.

Forgotten Great Film Performances @performances.bsky.social · 28/05/2025

Jonny Lee Miller - 📽️ Afterglow (Alan Rudolph, 1997) His films aren’t discussed enough, but Rudolph captured so many actors’ most interesting and vulnerable performance. Miller is terrific often, but never similar to this narcissistic, depressed executive in a bitter marriage with Lara Flynn Boyle.

Jonny Lee Miller as Jeffrey Byron wears a suit in the film Afterglow.

My ex Suzie (we're still good friends) has a new band with Nate from Mouthus/Lower Dens (also a homie) as well as Ted from Baklavaa (never met him I don't think) and they make the kind of noise-rock that makes me say yes this is a cool band. I did tell Suzie the band should not be named Caretaker

Nothing makes me prouder to be from Baltimore than when End It rips into "New Wage Slavery" and the crowd knows every word, every syllable, and yawps along. Maybe a new better world is possible, after all.
