Now that my 4 year old has her own “real” drum set, I showed her some live videos of the best punk rock drummer of all time.

I didn’t know about the @hamishsteele.bsky.social show on Netflix until Elon Musk pulled some bigoted bullshit this week. Now it’s on my radar and I’ll be watching it this weekend because it looks awesome. Can’t wait to watch Dead End: Paranormal Park.

Am I the only who was catching some Starfire vibes with Kris Statlander tonight? Could we be getting a tease of the return of her alien gimmick? #AEW #AEWDynamite

I don’t have Twitter anymore, did Nancy Mace at least delete the death penalty tweet before she wrote the pray for the assassin tweet?

A small part of me wants to reactivate my Twitter account just to see if all the weirdo right wingers who were ready to declare war on the left a couple days ago have walked back their chest thumping tweets yet.

Late to watching #aewdynamite tonight. Just finished it and it was one of the best top to bottom Dynamites in recent memory!

@nojoy.bsky.social's BUGLAND doesn’t bother with sticking to one genre or following a clean, predictable structure. It’s intentionally messy, layered and built to feel lived-in. @aarxn82.bsky.social reviews. beardedgentlemenmusic.com/2025/08/13/n...
No Joy - Bugland Album Review | Bearded Gentlemen Music
Combining elements of shoegaze and trip-hop, BUGLAND sees No Joy expand their aesthetic into a living, breathing terrarium of sound.

I love it when a band can grow their sound and lyricism without relying on tropes or watering down their talents.

"Straight Line Was a Lie" is the 4th album by @thebeths.bsky.social, and I wrote about it for @beardedgmusic.bsky.social.
