Planning my next vacation at almost all times. Into games, grills, and all that other cliché stuff elder millennials like to do.

A great follow up to #365games that I'm gonna try for 2026. Get to know my music taste in #365songs. No particular order, just a bunch of songs I could listen to pretty much endlessly.

Get to know my music taste in 365 songs!
Inspired by @kyleor.land's #365games thread, I'm going to post every day about a song that is meaningful to me. These aren't necessarily the "best" songs, but they're all songs that left an impression in some way, with a loose theme each week.

No order, just whatever's in my head, and I will absolutely be using this to post videos of live songs I was in the crowd for when I can. Thread starts here!

The best clue someone has no idea how TV production works and they are just trying to feel important is when they point out a misspelling on the teleprompter.

I have ended every online interaction with Universal for the past 2 years with "and please leave Twitter and join other social media networks! I don't feel like you should want to be associated with things there."
A huge bummer they still just...dont care?

Its Brian.
We love you, Bosco.

I have no followers (which is fine, Im not here for that)
But if you listen to this song:
straighterthanpete.bandcamp.com/track/idaho
And you like it, and you pay for it - let me know. Our drummer passed away, and Id love to figure out a way for his son to be taken care of.

Tonight I played songs we played together 20 years ago. I cried and I thought about how next time around ill do things differently. Ill listen when you reach out and ill answer the phone when you call.
We will play again someday.
We will talk again, and laugh again.
Thank you, friend.

Absolutely blows my mind that Americans have this attitude to work / life. That they put up with hardly any annual leave, being in massive debt for health and education, no paid maternity leave. Greatest land in the World though... for employers.
