Go through Nena's body of work at least once in your life. Yes, the German "99 luftballons" Nena. Prolific stuff. music.apple.com/ca/album/def... 🎧

The funny lesson that time and error have taught me, which is true for music as well as programming, is: You have to be willing to delete it (code, song ideas). You have to be able to recreate it all again, if necessary. Nothing is sacred. It's a mountain that you must pass over to make progress.

I produce/play in a band called Music Hall with my friend Arlen (Wolf Parade), Tasha and Erik. We have 2 albums out that bsky people seem to really like. 'Make the Lights the Sun', and 'Ocean Waves' and 'Let The Night Disappear' are our bangers according to you. open.spotify.com/artist/0awum...

NANCY PELOSI OUTPERFORMS BUFFET IN RETURNS. Didn’t realise we had such a financial wiz kid on our hands here 💅💁🏻‍♀️. Why did she waste her time in the halls of power when should could’ve been making billions running an investment firm?? 😰. She really gave America her damnedest effort. Bless 🕊️

Ughh, this is terrible, I’m doing the same ASAP. End of an era. @soundcloud.dev was where I got my first break in music but now it’s betraying its creators in the worst possible way. Full enshitification sequence: complete 😓

Watching BBC World News: They’re playing “Nothing Compares to You” by Sinéad O’Connor over the tannoys at Trump’s 100 day celebration in Michigan and my stomach turned along with her, in her grave, observing this 🤢 🤮

Jon Stewart on the recklessness and wrongheadedness of Trump’s market-crashing tariffs

The BBC is bringing back its much beloved “Connections” series. Episode one will explore the connection between the DOW 📉 being down 20% and the chorus of middle-aged male rock musicians who are covering Pink Pony Club by Chappell Roan in Q1 of 2025. Should be enlightening

My mind, body, and spirit are prepared for this youtu.be/oUIK01ek-Ko

Need help: A geriatric nepo-baby with a third grade vocabulary is living in my head rent free. What rights do I, as a landlord, have to evict?

I logged into bsky to a bunch of new followers. I must have been put on a list 👀, welcome to you all 🙋‍♂️. Many of you seem to be politically inclined, so I’ll share with you the award-winning doc I made about Occupy Wall Street that’s free to watch on YT occupythemovie.com

This could have been recorded yesterday yet it’s 20 years old. As a spiritual practice I watch this every 5 years while I’m in the queue before casting my vote in the ballot box 🗳️ youtu.be/Nyvxt1svxso

everything is computer

Rare Pepe’s are out, rare JD’s are in.

#SOTU drinking game: take a shot whenever he says "like you've never seen before"

I’m not saying definitively whether Trump is under the thumb of the Kremlin but if, hypothetically, a sitting president was compromised by the KGB in 1987 because 🇷🇺 was bailing him out for being the first person ever to somehow bankrupt a casino then this is exactly how I would expect him to behave

My very first job in film as a kid was on Harriet the Spy. I got to know Michelle in between scenes/shots and even though she was the star she didn’t let it go to her head and was very cool with me. RIP Michelle Trachtenberg. Gone too soon ❤️‍🩹

When I interviewed the founder of @adbusters.bsky.social, Kalle Lasn, for Occupy: The Movie back in 2011 and asked him what the secret to successful #protest movements was, he said "learn to play jazz" #50501

@cnbc.com sure does show a lot of ads for a station that’s entire programming is advertising businesses.

When Canada wants to be #1 in: Highest prison pop. Most mass shootings Most $$$ healthcare Highest RX drug prices Worst maternal mortality rate among developed nations Most medical debt Largest wealth gap in the developed world Highest CEO-to-worker pay ratio Most student loan debt ...

Why aren't we calling him Mark Suckaturd?

Every day I journey into the mines to chip away at the ever-growing list of browser tabs but alas my efforts are futile. The list cares not for me but only for the consumption of system memory it yearns for.

Imagine if you could be as loose with your "business expenses" on your taxes as LinkedIn is with what constitutes a notification. "Co-worker from 2005 just liked a '🙌' comment in a thread started by a person you you've never met" I'm writing off that cone of gummy worms as CEO health & wellness
