- I've posted before about how @carolecadwalla.bsky.social pieces are an automatic read. This one is SO powerful. Finally got me to be a paying subscriber to her Substack too, which I should've done awhile ago. She's a total badass...
- Very disappointed to see @bookshop.org partnering with Spotify, an objectively terrible company that has been bad for music, pays pennies, and advertises fascism on their free platform. Why? "There's no ethical consumption under capitalism." Order from indie bookstores directly!
- Today is #BandcampFriday when they wave fees and all proceeds go directly to artists and musicians. I'll link my ANHNCH project, and I'd certainly be flattered if anyone is inclined to purchase one of my albums, but just support ANY independent musician today that's the most important thing!
- I missed a few brilliant January electronic music releases by posting my first Substack a day or so early. Lesson learned. Here's a few more. Check it out. I promise it's better than reading the news!
- Just finished this. More brilliant fiction from the one and only!
- He's worth 250 million. He had 40 mil for propaganda film on the First Lady (throwing up in my mouth a bit typing that!), untold millions for his absurd wedding. He could've funded WaPo and 'X' number of other papers indefinitely. "Democracy dies" but certainly not in darkness. Stop using Amazon!!
- Raise your hand if you don't believe them!!

- Good!!
- Paris prosecutors raid X offices as part of investigation into child abuse images and deepfakes - ABC News share.google/JYD49Z8HNB2Q...
- This isn't the least bit creepy right?!🙄
- Love it. Make another run for the crown Danny. This would be a slam dunk guarantee that @govwesmoore.bsky.social will win a well-deserved 2nd term!
- Here's my latest Substack which is about something totally different than what's going on in the news because we can't all handle this much bad news, so take a deep breath and listen to some ambient electronic music:
- Once again, anyone who voted for this man owns all of this. We're arresting journalists now. Is THIS what you voted for?
- The tech bros are literally all insane. No one wants this. This isn't a 'vibe' it's a cult!
- www.ft.com/content/d0b7... No thank you.
- I love living in this state! Abolish ICE!
- Obviously the loss of jobs here is not good, but anytime Amazon fails in some way it's worth celebrating. Shop at your local grocery store!
- There's SO many good reasons to NEVER use Amazon, here's just the most recent one!
- Worth emphasizing, as many others have, that the people of Minneapolis did this. NOT Schumer, Jeffries, or any of the institutional Dem party in DC. It's only a small sliver of good news, but we can and should all thank the people of Minneapolis for this small crack in the armor!
- As someone who just finished reading @karenhao.bsky.social 'Empire of AI' this is SO spot on!!
- Just a periodic reminder that NONE of this would be happening under a President Kamala Harris administration!
- Reposted by did:plc:flvgpcfgiaadsxvi47tzwdspAlex Pretti - who he really was.
- If you voted for him, THIS is what you voted for. Hope you're getting what you wanted!
- Apparently some D's are okay with using kidnapping 5-year olds, and murder. Mind boggling beyond any words. And this is a total failure of leadership from @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social dude just resign you're a fucking joke.
- I watched Mark Carney's speech last night. I'm ready to become Canadian. If they invade the US, I promise I won't get in the way! Just let me know how to transfer all my US documents to Canadian and I'm good to go!
- I've posted before about how my Dad and him are about same age and afflicted with same neurological issues. My Dad was never a total asshole but other than that parallels between them right now are striking. My Dad should not be in control of the largest economy in the world. Neither should he!

- New EP from yours truly!
- When she posts it's an automatic read. Usually leaves me depressed and demoralized, but essential reading regardless! We need voices like @carolecadwalla.bsky.social more than ever!
- I am impressed with @evanmglass.bsky.social but I don't like this. We don't need a "study" that includes industry to tell us that MoCo doesn't need data centers!
- Not sure why I thought this was a good time to read this. It's amazing, and after reading his most recent book I knew it would be, but SO scarily spot on and relevant it's insane!
- I hate him and hate posting anything with his picture in it. I also hate AI. But it's Sunday and this has been another terrible week so a little humor can't hurt. If you know you know!
- I could post this every day and it would still be relevant sadly. And this is about the TITLE not shameless self-promotion!
- So @theatlantic.com made up for horrific RFK cover last month with powerful cover photo from J6 and then powerful essay on institutional knowledge lost since 1/20/25 in the fed govt and pages of interviews with fed workers fired or quit. Absolutely heartbreaking we've lost so much in just 1 year.
- What did he do, hurt himself calling her a fucking bitch after shooting her in cold blood?
- I'm so proud of the place that I live! #fuckICE #abolishICE
- It would take FOUR Republican Senators to shut all of this madness down. FOUR. Everything could stop if FOUR individuals had the courage to step up and join Democrats in voting all of this madness down. It's hard to even fathom isn't it? FOUR!!

- Honestly let her do it? We're a failing nation right now, the world needs to move on without us. The UK will be just fine aligning with the civilized world until we can restore sanity here. So come on UK, ban X, fuck Musk, call their bluff.

- Terrible things are happening everywhere every day but our Gestapo is now openly murdering American citizens in broad daylight and our Nazi leadership is lying about it so openly and brazenly and I'm not sure how we ever recover from this...
- Renee Nicole Good, 37, a U.S. citizen, mother, and community member in the Twin Cities, was fatally shot by an #ICE agent in #Minneapolis on January 7, 2026. She was not the target of any investigation and was remembered as a kind, loving person.
- ICE agents are murderers. The President is a lying piece of shit as is anyone telling you otherwise from DHS or the news media.
- How can ANYONE with an iota of conscience remain on Twitter?
- Our mainstream/legacy media is failing us completely and totally in this crucial moment! Thanks for nothing folks!
- Gonna go out on a limb here and say that UMG is lying and that this WON'T be about artistic empowerment and "ethical" AI. How do these corp PR folks sleep at night?
- We need to be treated by the rest of the world the way Russia was treated when they invaded Ukraine. Sanctions on everything, seize assets, don't travel here, remove us from the intl order, etc. Make us a pariah nation! And any country that comes here for World Cup and Olympics is an enabler.
- In case anyone wants a rather refreshing look at what non-US state media is saying, since there doesn't seem to be a mainstream media in the US anymore!
- Let's be honest though, we're already IN the world Lula is talking about. Still good to hear at least ONE world leader not settle for mealy-mouthed platitudes!
- My top choices would be Canada and Ireland, but honestly not sure we can be picky at this point!!
