My #eoty2025. First two rows are pretty set. Third row is fluid, based on last one I listened to and honestly, the last 3 rows could all be in third row on any given day if I'm in the right mood. #metalsky * Skagos would be in the top row if I added an album from the end of 2024.

Finally finished The Diplomat. That show is just fucking amazing. In my top 10 of all shows. Just incredible writing and acting.

Think how good these 76er's would be if they wouldn't go down by like 20+ points every game.

I can say that without a doubt, that being drug behind a car and getting road rash, would be one of the worst tortures I can imagine. My road rash isn't even that bad and it hurts like a m'fer. I keep twitching. My leg has a mind of it's own. My hip is swollen and burning. It's much worse now.

Absolutely amazing work. Play the song.

The whole family got together tonight for the first time in a while. My granddaughter is getting so big. She looks EXACTLY like my daughter at that age.

Wolves in the Throne Room and Blood Mountain Black Metal Choir were great, as expected and so far, Cursebinder is really good. Even better than their last album, which liked a lot. #metalsky cursebinder.bandcamp.com/album/psycho...

Welcome to Philly LaJawn James. Play the song.

Embid needs to wipe the butter off his hands.

As someone whose listening habits are about 98% metal and punk, I'm actually liking this. I'm as shocked as anyone. @derekpetersen.bsky.social recommended it and I got to give him credit, he's not wrong. slayyytersongs.bandcamp.com/album/wor-t-...

LUGUBRIOUS GARMENT is another amazing album from GG. Mother of Graves with another solid album. Listened to Billy Strings and dude rips. While bluegrass will never be something I listen to regularly, I did pull out Panopticon albums. New Cursebinder coming out Friday, so listened again. #metalsky

For years, there has been an albino squirrel(s) running around the neighborhood. I finally got a photo of it. If there is only one, it has been living a charmed life. Can't believe a hawk hasn't locked in it.

Everytime I watch these, I think things that are amazing, like fiber optic lines, are 1000x more amazing than I thought. How can humans be so smart and so fucking stupid? Humanity discovered this but also voted for Trump. Makes my head hurt. youtu.be/NiCgcUTL9_Q?...

Getting ready to crank up the new Deafheaven. #metalsky

Got my flu and covid vax today and they shoulder soreness is just starting.

Eagles are done this year, I guess, Penn State is cooked, so I'm all in on the 76er's this year. This game is starting out full of fight, so that's encouraging. Looking pretty good.

Maxey throwing darts to start the game.

The AI 'Reverse Engineer Anything' craze is going to further sloppify the real world & put insecure buggy stuff on all sorts of hardware. It is also going to liberate a bunch of internet of shit devices that have been needlessly bricked by their manufacturers www.404media.co/reverse-engi...

I saw my first Stacy Garrity ad today. I've seen 100's of Josh Shapiro ads. I didn't think there were spending any money on her. I hope I never see another one. I did realize that they use really unflattering photos of her in the Shapiro ads. I never knew she could look normal.

I have not thrown up in at least 25 years and my streak was broken last night. I believe my wife and I got food poisoning last night from some Raman. The chicken had a weird mouth feel. Apparently there was a reason. I feel fine now but she is still feeling the effects.

There will be a red card in this Leeds - United game. Based on recent history, I'm sure it will be against Leeds, which would put them right where they want to be, a man down against United.

Look upon its splendor! It is glorious! @billcorbett.bsky.social @rifftrax.com

I was completely lucky on the last one and unlucky on the 3rd. This had all the makings of my best score ever. Long skinny countries are my bane. www.maptap.gg October 16 100🎯 97🔥 83🌟 97🔥 100🎯 Final score: 954

I am not saying the Fortress Fest lineup was tailor made for me, but it kind of was. Realized I am missing 3 Watain albums and a couple of Emperor albums in the shot, but I don't feel like doing this again. #metalsky #fortressfest

Linework is finished. #mst3k

It's back. One of the best shows on television right now. If you call Netflix television. If you never watched it, it's in my top 10 (probably). www.youtube.com/watch?v=for_...

I'm friends with the guys in Veilburner, but I don't think I'm biased in saying this may be my favorite in their discog. Of course, I only got one listen. LOVE the new Deafheaven EP. They seemed to lose some shoegaze. And against my will, I like Netherwilds. Folk Hardcore is a thing? #metalsky

Ex-boss filed a $12 theft charge against an ex-employee because she got a restraining order in response to his creepy behavior. Charge was never prosecuted, but it gave ICE an excuse to arrest and detain her. Congratulations to the 58 Democrats who voted for the Laken Riley Act. You own this.

I haven't fit in this shirt in a long time. It doesn't fit perfect yet, but it fits, so my work wardrobe has just expanded.

When I testified to Congress this summer I highlighted Hines’ close ties to Tether. The WSJ has now uncovered a bombshell: Tether was paying Hines WHILE he crafted Trump’s signature piece of crypto legislation. apple.news/ALBX-2SuhRe6...

How did this cabal manage to do this, WHILE HE WAS PRESIDENT!? Do people that believe this shit, just forget that he only lost, when he had control? Sure, it's run at a local and state level, but how did they only manage this, when he was in charge? Maybe...he really lost and he's full of shit?

I realized I never reposted this. If you want to hear my wife and I talk to some good friends about the festivals we attended this year, it's here for you to enjoy. #metalsky.

Birdemic had birds more accurate than first thought. #rifftrax #birdemic

Truly masochist behavior by me at my in-laws. At least I didn't watch the Manchester United game yesterday. I did unfortunately watch Penn State. Eagles are just frustrating.

Didn't see this coming and holy shit, it rips. Deafheaven is really leaning into the black metal on this one. I love it. open.spotify.com/album/7tIVbL...

We are at in-laws in NC and they don't have bidets, so I decided to order a portable bidet from Amazon. At home, it would be delivered in like 8 hours. Here it wouldn't get here until Monday. I guess we are spoiled with distribution centers near Harrisburg and bidets in our homes.
