Walken declining to appear on the SNL doc about the cowbell sketch was as disappointing as Fagen turning down the Yacht Rock doc. Just be happy you were part of something that made so many smiles. Embrace it!

Perhaps my biggest weakness as a #DJ is my excessive fondness for the album Rock Your Baby by George McCrae. So many great cuts. It's like The Sunshine Band without KC.

I was listening to a podcast recently, interviewing the author of a CMS, and he joked that "every programmer has to write their own CMS at some point," and I'm glad I passed that rite of passage fairly early on in my "career!"

Love #SNL, but I skipped Gillis’ last hosting gig and I’ll damn well skip this one. Bummer. apple.news/AIx-nZj-eRLi...

Now what, Adobe? This in Illustrator, a grammatically incorrect "help" widget at the bottom of my window I can't remove? Thanks ever so much, I didn't realize the "select" tool selected an object when you click it.

All 4-plus hours of my set the other night is live. Sounds pretty good! www.djdisarray.com/show/februar...

Hey #Portland, if you didn't know Tommy Stinson is playing at Bunk Bar on Thursday night... now you do. I can't make it, but if you know who Tommy Stinson is, you should probably make it!

Strange way to phrase "fuck around"

The 90s were a glorious time for putting a simple beat over a 70s song and having a hit

TIL it’s short for Defecating Leopard!

Feeling thankful for all the masculine role models I had as a kid

Another very good take. www.schneier.com/blog/archive...

Amazing. When you set the grid color in Adobe Illustrator on Mac, it just lazily uses the Apple system color picker, despite Illustrator having *several* of its own color pickers. It then completely ignores your opacity setting.

Doing my little part! 🤣

This weekend, #portland!

It’s weird when news articles describe Mr West as “bipolar“ rather than “openly Nazi“. It’s weird to lead with that one. I’ve known a number of people who are bipolar and somehow none of them are openly Nazi.

Just posted a recording and set list from the other night if you're curious. Turned out kinda weird, but it was fun to play. I don't do a lot of digital sets these days, but this was one. www.djdisarray.com/show/giganti...

I feel so #blessed to not care about sports

“…Google's widely-used CAPTCHA system is primarily a mechanism for tracking user behavior and collecting data while providing little actual security against bots.”

Ain't good. Compared to Senate Dems, House Dems have less leverage. One exception is the budget fight. But here's the Dem House Leader TODAY declining to use that leverage. If you have a Dem rep, ask them to use their leverage. And tell them to tell Jeffries to lead. Stay tuned - more to come.

Fun fact: The Bible literally forbids charging interest on loans, but does not once directly address abortion.

WHAT IS THIS NEW DEVILRY

USAID’s website has been deleted, all that is left is a note saying all personnel are now on administrative leave and personnel outside the US are to be brought home. Completely illegal, no act of congress or even executive order was signed to dismantle the agency

What’s his beef against USAID in particu….oh. Wow.

I’ll believe that AI is useful when it can finally replace that damned groundhog.

All of this tariff business with Trump is just an excuse for people to bribe him to exempt their companies or industries from the tariffs. It’s all just to get him more money/power from the office. Nothing else. Prove me wrong.

If you're a Dem elected official or a not-actively-anti-democracy journalist in DC today with an ounce of ambition, go down to Treasury (it's on Pennsylvania Ave, right next to a big white house) and make some noise. This is a moment when careers are made, if anyone has some courage.

The unanimous talking point from every Dem should be “these people should be arrested and jailed immediately”

Schumer needs to go.

If you wanted no leaks you should have gone into Settings -> Security -> Configure privacy & security -> Privacy options -> Other -> Configure -> Media interface and clicked “Disallow.” The Leak setting is on by default but we understand your privacy is important so we’ve made it easy to opt out

My kid is watching a YouTube video about a YouTuber who eats nothing but YouTube food products for a week in case you thought our timeline couldn’t get any darker.

When I ask ChatGPT (Mac version) to output markdown-formatted output, it does terribly these days. Whereas if I copy from the web it's perfect. Wonder what could be causing that.

Approvingly citing Musk/X and Zuck/Meta, Substack reiterates its commitment to support Nazis, antisemites, anti-vaxxers, transphobes, and homophobes in spreading disinformation & hate under the guise of “free speech”. [read.substack.com]

I know you hate this advice. I know you hear it all the time, but for gods sake you need to be calling your congressperson. Now. Today. If you have a GOP representative, you need to call and ask if they approve of stripping congress of its constitutional authority. If they like being powerless.
