Very sad to hear the news of my old friend/bandmate Annie Smidt's passing. I wrote more on IG but here's a holiday card I got from her in 2000 that's how I'll chose to remember her. "here's to kangaroos drinking tea in well-appointed libraries"

Driving thru north CT rain today listening to various KatieJane Garside projects, someone I've long believed is one of the most interesting artists alive today. Also listened to @neutron.bsky.social 's fascinating interview with her

Happy 4th birthday to Ozzy! 🎉

Our prehensile-tailed porcupine celebrated with a special cake this weekend. It was made with items from his normal diet and topped with yams, peppers, spinach, peanut butter, and popcorn.

My favourite part of today was telling my dad the cribbage board he had chosen to play with was "highly irregular"

He wrote back saying 'I really like it! It gives Nikki Sudden vibes. I do like the layer of sadness under the happy pop.'

I'm really pleased with this
A few days before I left for college I improvised some songs in my friend's basement onto a boombox. Unknownst to me, my friend Jim took the tape and played it on his college radio. The other night I wrote a simple & sweet love song that reminded me of those so I sent it to Jim

25 years ago Andy Shea & I watched I Know What You Did Last Summer 37 days in a row. Mallory Smart convinced me to watch it a 38th to talk about the psychic fallout from such a venture with her on That Horrorcast @mallorysmart.bsky.social

I had a dream last night there was a Budweiser Sherry. To be clear this was a sherry-flavored lager, not the wine itself

I was so bored at work today I actually Google'd "why are Jack & Diane so depressed"

I watched Tommy for the 1st time last night. That scene where he loses his virginity to Tina Turner & it's metaphorically shown as him being placed inside a giant metal robot is just so baffling. Am I doing it wrong?

I spotted this on Mastodon and I find it horrible, not least for the speed with which this has happened.

I've got a mash-up of Maiden's Wrathchild and Aerosmith's Rag Doll stuck in my head that's actually kinda awesome

Any Dolly Mixture fans here? Hope so, they were one of the greatest bands to ever exist, and Debsey's new memoir is excellent. I spoke to her about it for The Quietus @thequietus.com @newmodernbooks.bsky.social @debseyonbass.bsky.social

Was great to chat to one of my favourite singers, Debsey, from one of my all-time favourite bands about her excellent memoir. Rachel sang on my new single. I now need to collaborate with Hester on something @newmodernbooks.bsky.social
