Hey everyone, I released another album called “how the light gets in, vol. 1”. My 8th release - this one is more of a collection of songs I’ve made that follows a personal theme. I’d be so honored if you’d check it out! This is one of a couple of indie rock songs on there, many other styles too.

Saw “Tylenol Lawsuit” trending and thought for sure they were suing this stupid af administration but… shame on me for thinking rationally still. WTAF.

My dad’s parents had this in the hallway by the bathroom. It scared the shit out of me at night when I was a kid and had to walk by it to pee.
This is the “all is vanity” skull painting by Charles Allen Gilbert
Kind of a skull or just an optical illusion examining the folly and futility of self absorption and inevitability of death.
NOT a Fucking Nazi skull!

New song I’m working on that I’m pretty happy with. It’s a banger.

“Joy-oy-enjoy.”

The president just gathered the highest ranking officers in the military to tell them that he may order them to kill American citizens -- and that they better follow his orders. All in response to a series of crises that have no basis in reality.

I don't know how to yell any louder.

Just recently finished this book + it was fantastic! My first standalone by him. I’d read the ones co-authored with Stephen King which are some of my favorites. A slow burning, world expanding, story connecting read that explodes at the end in vibrant colors. Next up: Shadow Land by him. Can’t wait!

Game changer.
The Cure’s ‘The Head On The Door’ — featuring the singles “In Between Days” (their first Hot 100 hit) and “Close To Me” — was released 40 years ago today

I just saw a kid playing w a creepy ass action figure that looked straight outta the ‘80s. As I listened to one explain to his friend that they start out cute + fuzzy but turn into this when they touch water, I was amazed that this was a Gremlin action figure. I don’t remember those AT ALL.
