Atlas & Oracle IS: The First Cyborg Ska Band. Gather round to see the man-made horrors of technology: beyond heart, beyond good and evil, there exists a prison of steel and cybernetics. This is where we find our protagonists, trapped by forces beyond their control. Link in Bio 🦾
Who you truly are is based on what you will do when you're certain no one will ever find out.

Ska changed forever again. I didn't tell you this time. U have to earn that kind of knowledge. But you probably felt it in the change of the wind 🌬️
Here's what we caught this week for new #Ska releases. Great new albums from La Regadera and Junior Dell. And great singles from @astralocale.bsky.social, Buena Suerte, Juantxo Skalari, The Bar Stool Preachers, Captain Accident, The Going Rate, and plenty more!

Last February, I filmed a jingle that went viral in the worst way. The smart call would have been to delete it, but decided I wanted to win. This thread's been in my drafts since then, now it's a time capsule & a case study. I share bc the experience taught me a simple lesson: winning is inevitable.

I wasn't paying attention to ska when Stolen Dance by Milky Chance came out, did we claim that as ska? or what's the deal

Subtweets don't work on me. I've lived too many lives. Besides, I'm rooting for your success either way 😜

Some people get so hung up on gender presentation that they don't realize that a man who thinks like a woman can be manipulated by a woman who thinks like a man in a shockingly similar way to the stereotypical dynamic of heteronormative abuse and go entirely unnoticed both during and after

"Aren't you supposed to be all about uplifting and supporting everyone?"
Ah! You're referring to the night's first showing. Unfortunately, those who booed the initial performance will not be invited back for the part 2. Plenty of room for everyone else though!

Each new day gives us another opportunity to try again. That's really all of it.

Very much relating to my own song right now @underneathtl.bsky.social 💭https://underneaththelookout.bandcamp.com/track/daydream

When the album is released I'm looking forward to everyone being able to hear how this track goes into the next. It's like a part two and it's really cool tbh.

We must ensure the Ska overlords once again reign supreme, join me in ensuring heir supremacy on the airwaves with some funky brass jams.
All these douchebags out here bringing sci-fi ideas to real life without the lessons of the sci-fi they came from are making it really hard to promote this sci-fi-inspired ska EP. I'm not like those guys, we both enjoy the same genre allegedly, but I'm better at enjoying it 😮‍💨

Winning at all costs does not always win, but it does always cost

Starting to think that people who treat legitimate reasons for mistakes as excuses might be making that assumption because when they want to get out of bad behavior they pretend it was a mistake

Love is the difference between "I'll do whatever it takes to get you to stop crying in front of me" and "I'll do what I can to comfort you while you heal"

Pompeii by Bastille is the closest we've ever gotten to having a Streetlight Manifesto song on pop radio. Most people aren't ready for that conversation though

I bring a "smoke them all with an intellect and a savoir faire" vibe to the function that ppl who stand in the line of love don't really fw

"REAL ska is..."
"But it's not REAL punk, because..."
"REAL Emo only consists of..."
If you can't stfu and surrender to the ceaseless passage of time then I am gonna REALly piss you off this year

"Stop pretending to be someone that you're not!!"
That's what I've been doing more and more, thanks for noticing :')

"But you're so... performative!"
Guess that's just who I really was the whole time

"Well you should cut it out, you make me cringe"
What was the first thing you said again?

There is nothing which can be unraveled by the truth that doesn't deserve to be. Nothing.

Men hate it when a guy they don't like is happy. "What did you do that's so special you deserve contentment" Like chill bro I'm just appreciating the oneness of all things, it's available to you as well

If you post carelessly and encourage others to do the same, I'm either gonna assume that you're not actually doing much good, or that you won't be for long. If I'm wrong about the second, I'll know I'm right about the first.

"You're so full of yourself, you really think those people are still thinking about you?"
Bröther I wish I did not know for a fact that they definitely do
January 25, 2026 at 11:35 PM
If I'm being inauthentic, what does the real version of me look like? I only ask bc you seem to think you know me better than I know myself 🤔
