xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Also last night I was befuddled when Troy Aikman said he was loath to use the word “high point” on tv. Then I remembered that’s what they called it in Dallas when Michael Irvin would gesture to his nose. 010
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 29/09/2026New Billy Joel Turnstiles deluxe has a demo track titled I’ve Seen The Lamb Go Down On Broadway. Billy being cheeky or AI run amuck on a record company? 000
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Extremely niche but need a sniglet for that thing where guitarists give away the next song in the set list by testing their tone. Bob Weir was a frequent offender. Guitarshadowing? Prestrumience? Chordtending? 030

xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 23/09/2026The amount of times at dinner time I’ve said “I’ll just make a sandwich” to my spouse and meant it enthusiastically… 210
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Mid life revelations: turns out I’m a sandwich guy. More surprising: turns out I’m a mayonnaise guy! 230
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 23/09/2026The Luke to Mark Lewisohn’s Obi Wan is back! Obadiah is essential listening for relentless Fabs nerds! 110
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Really didn’t expect my barometer to move so wildly (or at all) on the anodyne musical personas that are Ed Sheeran and Macklemore. But I guess goats and heroes come from a unpredicted places in the big 26. 040
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 12/09/2026The Tubs are back with album number 3! Sonically picking up where we left off with the obvious Richard Thompson raised on punk and hardcore vibes. Haven’t parsed the lyrics yet but I’m confident/hopeful the sardonicism persists. 030
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Been enjoying these classic facsimile Bat issues that DC has been putting out. Fun to contrast this era of storytelling/art with the present. This one’s from ‘73. A classic, taut tale where Joker does some major damage but ultimately “slips” to the Caped Crusader. 000
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 09/09/2026Anyone else calling Gracie Abrams “Fauxbe Bridgers” or do I get dibs? 031
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 09/09/2026Just got some marketing email with the subject Welcome To Quarter-Zip 2.0 and am on tenterhooks for this latest release/technological advancement. Not a patch but a big round new number! 120
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Not terrible, could certainly be worse but its omnipresence is a perpetual concern! 120
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Crap it’s Blueshammer day at the coffee spot. A good reminder that life cannot solely consists of victories.static.klipy.comBuscemiALT: Buscemi 110
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 26/08/2026I do not disagree with the sentiment; in fact I’d call it a personal guiding principle. But given the creepily faded nature of this sign, it seems to be suggesting when you are in the presence of unwanted haunted spirits it’s a good time for coffee and sweets and sure why not? 100
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 25/08/2026Is there room enough in the direct market for two books about meathead bounty hunters? When the creators are the hilarious @thekylestarks.bsky.social and the multi-faceted @remender.bsky.social I’m not at all betting on no. 031

xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 25/08/2026Also should be noted: I’be never seen an ep of Lost. I’m here for Lanterns bc of DC/Tom King of it all. DL is new to me! 100
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 25/08/2026Mrs Davis is a new one to me. Nuns take on AI? Sign me UP! 100
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 25/08/2026Not watched any! Well I’m two deep into Watchmen but it feels a little homework-y (despite me loving the book). I like talk-y more than punches…and so far Lanterns gets that balance right for me. 100
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 25/08/2026It feels like a show that will appease nerds’n’newbies (or in my case a newly anointed nerd) a-plenty? 010
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 25/08/2026Totally! I feel like I need some Silver Age Hal in my life! 210
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 25/08/2026Lanterns really is doing the thing. (“The thing” being telling a superhero story that is thus far *perfectly* grounded. Also props for all the Kyle Chandler wistfully gazing upon a high school football field shots to draw in any FNL devotees.) 220
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 14/08/2026Needle drop spoilers are spoilers! Stop putting them in your “spoiler-free” review pls and thank you. 010
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 12/08/2026I loved it! I await each new installment with anticipation and hope to see it in book form asap! 110
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 12/08/2026Just a couple of real ones real one-ing. @sheilkapadia.bsky.social playing the role of my head and Andy playing the role of my heart. Essential get-ready listen! Requesting a @chrisryan77.bsky.social follow up ep! 061
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 12/08/2026Nirvanna The Band The Show might just be one of those “if you don’t laugh we can’t be friends” litmus tests. 020
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 12/08/2026*anecdotal observation at my local record store where at least half of the very large cd section is now NEW cds and more than half of the very large clientele are young and shopping this section not the old man vinyl section 020
xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 12/08/2026Judging by my highly scientific not to be questioned methods* CDs are very much back. 220

xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 04/08/2026New album out Friday, gone the following Monday. Heartbreaking but also apt for a life musically lived. A (the?) highlight of my musical playing days was opening and bunking with them courtesy @tigermountain.bsky.social . First shows In US in over a decade, magical. 073
Reposted by @xtiandc.bsky.socialWill Harris @willharrisinva.bsky.social · 04/08/2026Gutted to hear the news about John Douglas of trashcan sinatras. Of course I've been a fan since the band's very first album and been a part of their online fanbase for just about as long online fanbases have been a thing. 2133

xtiandc.bsky.social @xtiandc.bsky.social · 27/07/2026I’d be the annoying rider in the back who yells “are we there yet?” every 15 minutes. And when they look at me puzzlingly and ask “where?” I’d say “FRANCE!”. 010
