My only plans for Christmas besides spending time with my family is to make the sandwiches from the first episode of twin peaks. Butter and Brie on baguette, eaten from the middle.

Bsky is saying that to receive messages I have to provide them with a part of my ssn, my credit card number, or a scan of my ID. This is age verification through a third party website. Has anyone else experienced this?

One of my favorite things about music is that I can listen to something I don't like initially and over more time with it I can learn to appreciate it. I didn't used to like country gospel, but now I do.

I recently learned that doing donuts in a car is called "whipping shitties" by some people in the northern USA. Can anyone corroborate this?

So far the problem with my bummer xmas mix is that there are too many songs about christmas in vietnam. Not enough for a whole mix, but I can't let them take over the whole thing.

This mix was made a couple years ago, and I'm going to make a new one this year because somehow really sad xmas songs just find their way to me. I just found one about how a blind girl can't see how beautiful her christmas lights are. Why did someone make this song? No clue, but I'm glad they did.
Just put a Bummer Xmas Mix up on the patreon. It's got christmas in jail, vietnam, and other places.

My kid turns two soon. If there's one thing I've learned from having a baby it's that your brain turns to nearly useless mush for at least a year and it's OK to not remember plans, say no to things, not be able to get everything done, and generally be a scatter brained zombie for a while.

Just uploaded this audio the database of Jim Birdwell and the Traveling Texans. Two really great tunes that have a great sound. Lord I Tried is an absolutely brutal song about a car accident.

This is the sticker equivalent of wearing your band's shirt at your own gig.

@phonicunderground.bsky.social asked me about these discs they found yesterday and I did some sleuthing and found some interesting stuff.

These are instantaneous discs, which is the broad classification of discs that were not pressed, but cut in real time, often on an at-home lathe machine. --->
Anyone know anything about these Echo discs? I think they are from the late 1910s to early 20s. They are 6 inch discs made for instant recordings. Zinc coated I think.
