Hi all, Getting back into the swing of things. Here's a rambling about Mastodon's #gigantium. #music #song #writingcommunity

Culture Eater is currently on hiatus. That might change soon, depending on what happens over the next week. However, since March, the inclination to write and transcribe hasn't been there, and I don't have much energy to edit either.

Hey all, How's everyone going?

Normally I don't reshare work I've already shared, but recently my life was upended. Was dumped whilst facing unemployment, and now also facing homelessness. This bit of #writing has decided the next two pieces I'm working on. I ask that you read and share. open.substack.com/pub/haskelr/...

New tune which can only be described as an absolute shitkicker

Hello everyone, Here’s another bit of #writing from me. Back to music and a bit more loose and exploring the personal. #writingcommunity #writer #kingcrimson #music

for the first time in 7 years, you'll be able to cover your shame with my shame. lovingly screenprinted in Quebec by lasuitedumonde.bigcartel.com with arcane typography and logos from Unholy Designs Art - orders open until March 21. After that, no guarantees on sizing.

A hoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooorse, walks intoabar. The bartender says "Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy thelongface?"

Here's a bit of #writing on a film I once saw. A big thank you to @kbash.bsky.social and @thoughts.drsh.io for joining in. Honourable mention to @beersyttv.bsky.social who also wanted to, but couldn't. #film #japan #writingcommunity

Woo-hoo! Author's copies of my 33 1/3 book on @disasteradio.bsky.social Eyeliner's vaporwave masterpiece BUY NOW have arrived - only 2 months till launch Thank you 🙏@bloomsburymus.bsky.social

It's interesting, being in a boat and having people actively prevent you from stopping the person who said they were going to drill a massive hole in the boat drill a massive hole in the boat because you and some others asked everyone who could to help row.

Some more work from me, less in the "review" format, but still close. But getting away from it.

A #photography study of #hands. #monochrome

@beersyttv.bsky.social got this through at the start of last year, if I remember correctly. The time between then and finally getting to editing it is a saga of depression, fatigue and the testing of friendship. And now the review is published, and another one from Beersy next week.

In Animorphs, The Ellimist games so hard for so long that he turns into a god. Maybe there is hope for gamers.

Is it too late to say happy new year? Happy new year! Got a few things to throw at you all. Starting off, here's a conversation we had with Opeth's Martín Méndez: #interview #opeth

Was uncertain about uploading this on Substack as it’s about a rather recent work, but it’s also more experiential and, in a loose way, essay-like, so I decided to share it here whilst I keep chipping away at other stuff. #writingcommunity #review

Omg it's happening!! from 8:15 to 4:45pm tomorrow I'll be doing a tiny desk set!! at work

My John Cale book comes out tomorrow so apologies if I'm annoying about it for the next day or two. Trying to get rich.

A photo of the sunrise in the Blue Mountains. I'm reminded of the fires that occasionally move through there by the barren branches in this photo. They appear almost as though they're reaching for an escape. #nature #australia #sunrise #photography

"spend that time improving your craft" is some of the better advice i've gotten
