Listening to the new Cardiacs album while commuting today. It a good thing indeed.

Something that I hope comes out of the Cena heel turn is a complete switch-up of his presentation. No jorts, no ‘wear merch to the ring’, no ‘My Time Is Now’, no yapping with the cameraman. New ring gear. Suits. Give me Corpo Cunt Cena.

Hey folks. I've got a new EP dropping on March 17th. It's called Mulligan - 3 hard rock bangers and a Beatles-esque pastiche of music industry tropes and songwriting cliche.

And by that, of course, I’m meaning main roster PLE/PPV seeing as it was on NXT No Mercy last year of course. 😜

Well, I guess I can tick off the ‘entrance theme I produced/engineered used on a WWE PLE/PPV’ box now. Awesome stuff. 😀

Awesome to see Disturbed's 'Glass Shatters' getting an official streaming release. Definitely my favourite Steve Austin entrance theme.

The fact that there isn’t an all-female Kate Bush metal cover band called Hatebush is a missed opportunity IMO.

As a fellow nerd-coded maker of chunky wrestling tunes, I’m always down for good retro stuff.

So the improv comedy thing went quite well. I pulled a hamster out of an interdimensional portal in a waffle maker, turned myself from an old man into a young man with a magic doobie, had a conversation with a crow and pretended to be an Ecuadorian intelligence agent. Good times.

Taking a bit of a plunge tonight- my first try of doing improv comedy with a beginners’ workshop at the Glasgow Improv Theatre. Wish me luck!

Absolute banger. The reprise of The Mirror goes harder than Chinese algebra.

Breaking news: despite the Gibson C&D, Trump Guitars have announced a new Matt Gaetz signature model. They were going to give it the full 22 frets, but Gaetz torpaedoed that idea, saying he doesn’t go any higher than 16.

Bluesky peeps! My 2020 album of old wrestling tunes 'The Circle Squared' is now available on vinyl via Elasticstage. If you like big fat riffs and no vocals, it might be up your street.

I can't imagine many Steam users don't already have HL2 in their libraries, seeing as it usually goes for buttons in the sales, but on the offchance you don't, grab it. It's one of the best FPS games ever, IMO. Absolutely nuts to think it's been 20 years since it dropped, and it still holds up.

NeiloMac @neilomac.bsky.social · Nov 15

20th Anniversary update for Half-Life 2 is out now and like the 25th Anniv. update for Half-Life last year, it's free to add to your Steam library for now. Lots of QOL fixes & updates, & now includes HL2: Episodes 1 and 2 along with the main game.

I do like Bluesky, however I do hope the iOS app gets a proper iPadOS mode in the near future.
