Bathrooms at work have gone from smelling like a sewer to a Petco and I’m not sure if this is an improvement

Best part of moving is just watching DVDs for a while because you ain’t got internet set up in the new place

Listened to one Harold Budd record at work, and now this not logged in YouTube account’s recommendations are all AI 432Hz ambient slop

While packing, I found an old box in the back of my closet from when I moved in. It was the perfect size for random stuff from my desk & living room. While taping the box up, I noticed I had written “DESK + ETC” on it five years ago

Spent five or so days driving and playing music in front of strangers, barely felt stress. Back at work now for three hours and I’ve already nervously picked out like nine hairs from my mustache. Let’s Fucking Go

Dorkin’ out because the drummer for Cherubs let us crash at his house last night, viewing his home was like entering a portal to Slackers-era Austin

The Fighting Oligarchy tour having Old 97s open for them in Ft Worth is a brilliant strategy to tap into a Tarrant County voter base: totally checked out dads

In mental health news, I did manage to replace “holding a finger gun in my mouth” as a response with “miming that I’m jacking someone off onto my face”. Freud would probably have a lot to say about this, but I’m taking this as a win

I bought my younger brother a T-shirt and he loves it, I feel like I’ve accomplished one of the hardest cross-generational sibling tasks

Someone found a guitar outside of work and brought it to me, asking if I wanted it. It’s nice to be thought of, but also I dunno man I’ve got too many to just be stealing beat up classical guitars for no real reason

I find celebration of Killdozer distasteful because I would never knowingly advocate on behalf of or admire a Small Business Owner

Really frustrating that my cornball gen x rock guitar former boss also gave me the best gear advice years ago: “You can keep buying overdrives but what you need is an amp that’s 85% there and do the other 15% with pedals”

Really cannot emphasize enough how the most sincerely sentimental side story of Infinite Wealth features the recurring Adult Baby Diaper Lover Yakuza Clan

Something odd but kind of familiar in the recent lib thing about how the ICE kidnappers are "proud boys" or "not real cops" or whatever. A kind of third way triangulating. You still get to be outraged but not going all the way about cops.

“Halt! Who goes there?”
“Why, it is me, the Floor Pisser.”
“Ah, proceed, kind sir.”

Airlines have always been the vanguard of the modern financialized economy, first to graft a credit card company onto their biz, first to embrace market logic dynamic pricing, always eager to lay off workforce & let quality slide in favor of stock buybacks. 2 tickets cheaper than 1 is barely notable
