Picking up a music project that I stopped work on several years ago and the majority of my notes resemble Charlie's insane Pepe Silvia scrawl board from It's Always Sunny. Why have I done this to myself?

Happy one month birthday to my rawest EP. You can check it out or pick it up for Bandcamp Friday at cheercaptain.bandcamp.com
It's #BandcampFriday today! Hello, I am Dace. May I entreat you to consider my musical wares? My latest is a sci-fi rock opera space adventure concept album called Escape the Homeworld! dace.bandcamp.com/album/escape...
Everyone on the internet who said that the 2010 remake of The Crazies is better than the original owes me my money back! Which was 0, but still, I want some money!

Not enough people are buying my excellent, very good album. This is unfair!!! As such I have placed a tariff on my album of 500%!! This will remain until all you people who have been taking advantage of me (by not listening to my music) come crawling to make a deal! dace.bandcamp.com/album/escape...
When life gives you shit, make a shit sandwich! ... Maybe? I'm not sure, that doesn't sound great. I gotta think about that one
Hello, brain surgeon? I'd like to book an appointment to remove the part of my brain that has the knowledge of Steven Segal's reggae dancehall song where he repeatedly sings the lyric 'me want the punani' in a faux Jamaican accent. Thank you
#bandcampfriday For your consideration: Escape the Homeworld, a space-rock-opera! In the future, machines dominate the earth. The last people emerge from hiding, steal an ancient starship and flee into space! What fate will they find in the endless void? Find out! dace.bandcamp.com/album/escape...
I am releasing a new album in one week, on the 7th! It is called ESCAPE THE HOMEWORLD, and it is a space-rock-opera concept album that tells the story of the last humans of Earth fleeing the planet long after it has been dominated by evil machines gone out of control! #Musiciansky
dace.bandcamp.com/album/secret... Have remixed and remastered my '22 album Secret Messages. It's a psychedelic miasma, a reverb drenched haze out of which songs come looming, before melting away, morphing into something else. It's also free! (for now, at least) So if you like it, please have it!!

I have a thing about usually trying to use the metric system in my song lyrics when measurements happen to come up, but kilometers is just so damn awkward a word to work with!!
First discovery of 2025: I enjoy eating this stuff neat, out of the jar with a spoon. Off to a tasty start!!
I find it kinda reassuring to be able to go on the net and see that the nonsensical thought that just popped into my head has already occurred to many other people. The thought currently in question: Kawaii Gon Jin
Alternately, another way to support my work, since I am a musician myself: you could always go listen to some of my music, maybe even buy some if you fond something you like? etherdiver.bandcamp.com

I think ai content and human art ultimately serve two subtly distinct audiences - one appreciates craft because another mortal made it and we may relate to the human condition through it. The other wants a constant stream of stimulus to muffle the sound of their own thoughts, screaming into the void

Panel 1: office workers at the water cooler. One is holding a newspaper.
Worker 1: well, 2024 is almost over. It can't get much worse, can it?
Panel 2: close up of newspaper. Headline: KISSINGER NOT REALLY DEAD. condition misdiagnosed; doctors embarrassed.

Man: Oh no! There are people without homes who have to sleep on public benches!
Panel 2: [Suited man at desk, designing]
Man: Time to solve this!
Panel 3: [Suited man gestures to old person approaching a new bench, to other suited men]
Man: My solution!
Panel 4: [Old person is impaled on a huge spike that comes out of the bench. Other suited men applaud and write large cheques]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:kvx3altx5l2e4armnodc4b4k/bafkreibqifcwdfnrh7fcupempondf6hzlujermnv5mhz3dvetwswljqwia)
I made a psychedelic prog-rock instrumental inspired by the Magnapinna, a really freaky lil squid dace.bandcamp.com/track/magnap...

Sometimes inspiration comes from 6000 meters below sea level. Ooh, cryptic. What can I mean? Tee-hee!
well, guess I'm a guy who occasionally draws some little webcomics now
![Panel 1: Ever since I was a teenager in the 2000s, I wanted to make a webcomic. As I get older, a voice in my head keeps telling me:
Thought bubble: "If not now, when?"
Panel 2: Of course, webcomics back then were a different beast to today. An innovative approach will be re-
Thought bubble: "Ain't gonna live forever"
I'm doing it, okay!!
Panel 3: [gamer on sofa with controller speaking] "Doom 3? more like doom: someone turn on the frickin' lights
Thought bubble: "Terrible. Twenty years out of date. Wouldn't have been funny back then either. Shoulda done this when you had hair"
Panel 4: Voices in your head can be a double edged sword in terms of motivation. There is no punchline.
Thought bubble: "you want to do the thing but you don't have any ideas"
