At this rate, humanity might never leave our solar system. So, forget Star Wars, Star Trek, and all the sci-fi fantasies—this planet is all we've got. It's time to get serious about saving Earth, because there’s no escape plan coming. Let’s start now. #SaveTheEarth

Brilliant move, #Uland city planners—who puts a fire hydrant at the bottom of a drainage ditch? Hope the fire waits until the flood recedes. Oh, and nice touch putting them outside the neighborhood walls. Great plan for when homes hundreds of yards away catch fire. 🔥💧👏 #Texas

Line 6 lost its edge after Yamaha took over—killed innovation, dropped Variax, and shipped lemons like my Helix & JTV. Two repairs in, and it’s failing again. Sad to say, I can't recommend them anymore. I was there from the start. #Line6

Texas, y’all realize it’s actually illegal to pull out in front of oncoming traffic, right? It’s a Class C misdemeanor, not a suggestion! I’m tired of playing dodgeball on the highway. Do better! #TexasDrivers #TxDPS

Oh, I really wish pop music was dead—like, actually six feet under, rotting away dead. It's too bad the lead singer of The Knack is gone. I'd pay good money to hear what he thinks about modern pop music. I'm sure he's doing the twist in his grave, and not in a good way! 😆🎸

That's right, folks. Amazon Prime Video has clearly redefined "original" series to mean "same tired rehash." Their latest snoozefest? The Better Sister—just another show about rich, entitled people doing rich, entitled things. Seriously, Amazon, don't you own a whole movie studio? #AmazonPrimeVideo

This morning, I woke up thinking about the good old days of analog music. When I was 7, I wowed my babysitter by threading a reel-to-reel tape recorder and playing some Creedence Clearwater Revival. Those were simpler times—and better music! #analog

I moved to a state that has almost double the gun-related deaths compared to where I was before! This is terrifying and does not make me feel safe at all. It’s what happens when Texas has such lax gun control laws. People are getting shot left and right in my area. Thanks a lot, #GOP! #GunControl

Collective Soul is one of my all-time favorite bands! I've learned many of their songs, which I play every weekend. I even had the incredible opportunity to photograph them at a festival in San Diego. Hope you enjoy these shots as much as I do! 🎸📸 #CollectiveSoul @collectivesoul.bsky.social

This is just getting ridiculous! It happens way too often in #Texas, and it’s no surprise given how easy it is to get a gun here and how anyone can carry one around without a permit. Texas needs gun control like California—enough is enough! #GunControl
