For folks who want to follow Western Mass bluesky stuff, this is a reminder about the Western Mass feed. I created it using SkyFeed, and I think it works pretty well. You should pin it, repost it, tag it, etc.

This time. 20 years ago. My room on the 4th floor of Brigham. It was so quiet that night. song.link/nwj3tsm32h84d

It was fun while it lasted, TikTok. But the U.S. centralizing and retraining the algorithm based on mysterious U.S.-only criteria seems sketchy as hell. I'm rooting even more for @skylight.social to capture that drive for us scrollers to get that vertical video fix.

I crossed the river twice today. It was such a nice day to be out there. #westernmass

If you're a music streaming nerd who's ready to try and quit Apple/YouTube/Spotify ecosystem, try Qobuz. Audio quality is CD-level or better. Only music (no video). Has that 'connect' sync that Spotify does well. Easy transfer of playlists. Pays artists fairly. Name is silly but App is a joy.

Why don't congressional district maps align with counties/ parishes/ boroughs? We have an actual map of these already established www.mapchart.net/usa-counties...

Mixed feelings about reboots but that new Naked Gun movie was great. Liam Neeson's deadpan is fantastic. Pamela Anderson sings. So many jokes. All so dumb and silly and fun but man it was just the thing. I laughed a lot.

Old manning: For almost a week in my right ear I have been experiencing what sounds like the snap, crackle, pop of a bowl of rice krispies played through a transistor radio next to a bag of microwaved popcorn. (and yes, doc's been involved but no relief yet). Is this what going to a concert is now?

An appreciation post for @beeper.com, which has tamed the madness of having 7,000 different messaging apps. Automattic for the people.

A fun generational divide thing: Gen-Z/Alpha had cheap school Chromebooks and their parents have iPhones, so they know Google and Apple just fine. But in corporate life they'll likely use products like Outlook, Teams, Word, and Excel with basically no prior Microsoft-ing like us X/Yers.¯\_(ツ)_/¯

New Music Friday: Listening to Ben Kweller's excellent and heart-wrenching new record, 'Cover The Mirrors'. Grappling with the grief of his teenage son's death, examining his life. All heavy but beautifully approached. #newmusic 🎧https://album.link/r76xb5nfndjbk

Listening to this beautiful piano instrumental record by Dan Wilson, accomplished songwriter for the stars & Semisonic troubadour. Quiet, meditative, melodic, understated. The 100-year-old+ upright piano pronounces every click, every sustain pedal press. Lovely record. 🎧 album.link/hstf644n86vt2

Sadly, this show was cancelled / postponed by the venue. We're working out a new date.
I'm really looking forward to playing a show next Friday May 9 over at Progression in Northampton, MA . It's been awhile. Looking like we'll have a full band for this one. #westernmassmusic
