Continuing my lifelong pursuit of staying on the bleeding edge of pop culture, I’m checking out this obscure band “Geese” - any recommendations?
There is a fine line between trying to make eye contact with a cute guy and staring at them like a fucking psychopath. I think I sometimes cross that line. :(
Off to San Jose to see a Pink Floyd laser show. It’ll be cheesy as hell I know, but it’s been a bucket list item of mine since high school. *cue laser sound effects* #pinkfloyd
There is a reason why VirtualBox's logo looks like a stylized dumpster fire.
RIP Frank Beard (the one in the band without a beard.)

So I finally started watching Community (I know…) and I forgot how awesome it was to binge a new show that has like 25 20-minute episodes per season.
Eating at Ramen Nagi in Palo Alto - sitting next to a guy wearing a tshirt with confederate flag SS bolts and a Nazi skull pin on his hat.
As someone who works in IT support - developers are the absolute worst. lol Like what do you mean you have 8 versions of Java SDK installed and you don't know if you can delete the one from 2016 that has a list of vulnerabilities longer than a CVS receipt.
I can be one crafty bitch when I have a fresh pint of mod podge and skip my meds. Before, WIP, and after.
Streaming and vinyl can coexist. Vinyl: listening to the incredible Kinks record “Lola versus Powerman and the Moneygoround” in its entirety. Streaming: saying fuck it and listening to the song “Strangers” from said Kinks album on a loop for an hour straight. @thekinksofficial.bsky.social
there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for
What would be your left/right pocket hanky code meanings for this bandanna? #hankyCode #theshining #horror #queerHistory “Hanky Code” explanation in first comment for the curious and confused.
Gotta finish it off with Long Cold Winter. Singers from this era tried REAL HARD to get that raspy blues-soaked vocal style but Tom Keifer from Cinderella really nailed the Stephen Tyler meets Tom Waits aesthetic. I imagine his vocal cords looked like a jellyfish eating string cheese though.
Some Sunday apartment cleaning music - from back when when America was Great and “men dressed like men.”
Freddys bar taking reservations like it’s Studio 54. Ugh. So annoyed. First time trying to get a drink after a month of sitting at home and I’m in a mood already.
Why do I even try to go to Freddys in Arlington anymore? Every time it’s the same - missing bartenders, people holding stools for people who aren’t there, empty 2 and 4-top tables that stay “reserved” all night. It’s turned insufferable.
Working on a new app called 5by5. #lastfm #5x5 #5by5 #5by5app Lotsa Cake this week. @thebandcake.bsky.social
Ugh. My scar better end up looking better than this at some point. I’ll spare you the photos but it looks like I have a second ass crack an inch above my actual ass crack.
Finally got my staples taken out today, 3 weeks after my back surgery for my sciatica. I’m so excited to take a proper shower tonight. Still get really sore if I sit, stand, or lay down for too long - but I haven’t have any leg pain or numbness since I woke up from the anesthesia!
340k people? I’m not saying it’s Wrong, but what is the source for that? I’m seeing numbers like 30-70k (still an obscene number).
Jesus fucking Christ.
So much of TikTok is now just people stitching each other and saying “Epstein files mentioned wine corks and bleu cheese 12 times so bleu cheese must be a code word for eating baby feet” - and then three days of people confidently saying Corky Romano eats baby feet.
Problematic-masks on the cover aside, this album kinda slaps and is weirdly relevant. (First time listening to it in a long time and how did I never notice those masks before? I always thought they were the “theatre” masks.)
Welp - everything looks great but I didn’t get my staples taken out. He said “I want to keep them in for another week - there’s some pulling and stretching at that location.” Which is a clinical way of saying “look fatty, we’re gonna leave them in so you dont pop open like a tube of biscuits.” 🤣
Sciatica surgery post-op appointment today - getting my staples taken out!

Me, thoughtfully considering buying a $20 solid walnut coffee bean dosing cup with static electricity reducing spray for the grounds.
Just got a subscription to the NightFlight streaming app. Tons of B movies, lots of horror and music documentaries. Seems right up my alley.
Just got out of sciatica surgery. So far I’ve walked around a bit at the hospital and no nerve pain! Of course I’m on like 12 pain meds. All this and a corset too? This waist is SNATCHED.
