Hey, @radiodeadair.com have you seen anyone point out that Apple Music’s info is getting more and more wrong? Is AI running their database? This is the most “I don’t know how you get this wrong” I’ve found so far.

Hey, @jeffgerstmann.com if you were ever wondering what your NES streams look like on a CRT.

This purchase is directly caused by @shadowtodd.bsky.social and his fine work. At least I was able to stop myself from getting the Allman/Woman album.

Today’s morning is scored by my first Lofi record, of Super Mario 64. Expecting this to become one of my constant morning coffee rotations. Now, time to enjoy my pourover. #vinyl #vinylmorning #lofi #videogames #vgm

I’ve been hovering around this record for days without actually listening. This morning is the time. So glad this album finally made Priest click for me ❤️

I don’t usually talk about this, but I love making movie theater preshows for our movie nights. I go all out with relevant old theater ads, cartoon shorts, trailers, the works.

I decided to make a shitpost ad to open shows, and to use that Kidman AMC ad for it. So it’s both sincere and trolling.

Today was personally very painful. A rough experience for going to a first Ghost ritual. But at least the memories will outlive the hurt. #skeletour

Gotta snuggle where you can.

If you want some music that feels absolutely American without ignoring the reality of now?

I recommend The Eagles’ final track from Hotel California, titled The Last Resort. Even in the 70s, they saw it was almost over.

It’s only a democracy if our guy wins. Seems like authoritarianism exists outside of the American right, y’all.

Just had to reboot my Switch 2 (and lose progress) because it couldn’t handle deleting a picture. It shit it’s pants trying to delete a picture 🤦‍♂️

If you’ve ever thought B-52s was too weird for you, so did I. Everyone should give Cosmic Thing a try. It’s such an uplifting record filled with a sober, world weary kind of joy.

I’d argue the album overall is about the power of sharing radical joy. #vinyl #vinylmorning #classic

They called it a story set 100 years before BOTW. And they didn’t correct anyone until after the game launched.

Also, Halo Reach is about literally everyone you play as and work with dying, and it’s considered one of the best of its era.

Just be excited about your game and leave me alone.

Thanks to Blight Club on @giantbomb.bsky.social I’m playing Blues Brothers 2000 on MiSTer while listening to the soundtrack on vinyl. And I can’t complain!

Sometimes just having a cold glass of cola and nice tunes during a shower can be a little joy for the day.

Since I’ve finally set up to digitize my records, today’s #vinylmorning is Electric Light Orchestra’s Out of the Blue, where the beloved Mr Blue Sky originates.

It’s amazing, but it’s odd that it being the end of a “concerto” is largely forgotten. #vinyl #music #classicrock

Good morning. Today I’m starting my #vinylmorning with the Streets of Fire soundtrack, one of the few “50s nostalgia” pieces from the 80s that I feel stands on its own.

Standout tracks for me are Nowhere Fast, Sorcerer, and Tonight is What it Means to Be Young. #vinyl #classicrock #soundtrack

Been moving rooms, but for a new #vinylmorning today, it’s The “Worst” of Jefferson Airplane, a band that somehow survived the 60s, 70s AND 80s making better music than anyone wants to admit.

This collection is of their 60s hippie phase.

Kyle Fletcher looks like Doomguy now. And I always thought Doomguy didn’t look like a real person 🤷‍♂️ #AEW #FullGear

Today’s #vinyl is Operation Mindcrime, about a guy sick of government and religious corruption, and begins killing for a rich man that claims to want change, but just uses his murders to get more power. #vinylmorning #music #classicrock

For today’s #vinylmorning, I’m listening to the immortal Kind of Blue from Miles Davis. These last couple days have required some calming music, and I expect that need to continue ❤️ Take care of each other. #vinyl #music #classicmusic
