RIP Brian. Another prodigy gone. Figured I’d drop his favorite song here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortnin'_Bread#The_Beach_Boys_version

RIP Sly Stone. The word “genius” is often overused, but this guy was a true musical prodigy… at least until he cooked his brain with all the drugs he was taking. His life and the life of his band were lovingly covered in a two-parter from one of my favorite podcasts.

iPad stuff seems long overdue. Now we just need to be able to run desktop apps and I can ditch my old MacBook. The rest of it seems mostly like a design and polish year which, honestly after the AI debacle, is fine by me.

I thought so as well! I own two of Doug’s amps and they are so good I’ve never felt the need to shop for anything else. Love the woodwork on these ones.

This Blue Prince game... haven't played anything like it since Outer Wilds. I am loving it. Another puzzle game masterpiece. If you enjoy puzzles this is not to be missed.

Happy birthday!

Biscuit man + Birthday = _____? HBD, Brent!

Happy birthday, Rob! We should get the Bay Area gang together again soon!

Happy birthday, Chris!

I’ll be honest, I had never heard of this guy but this is a hell of an obit! https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/14/science/richard-l-garwin-dead.html

I'm never going to say "no" to new Arcade Fire, but this is kind of underhwleming by their high standards. A few good tracks but over way too soon (42 minutes).

Flew through Adolescence in two days. Yeah, it’s good. I’m not as blown away by it as some seem to be but it is obviously good. I am glad I gave it a shot.

Happy birthday, Professor Harvey!

Glad you got that one last phone call. RIP.

This is good. It is about computer components, but the same factors that affect that industry affect a lot of industries. People are going to flip when prices of consumer goods start going up.

Pro: open-top motoring in Napa Valley is amazing. Con: Driving yourself means you have to spit at tastings.

Lisan al Gaib! Wait, I meant to say happy birthday!

It has been quite a week. Top 10 funkiest bass lines of all time?

As a fellow owner of a black and white cat I am very sorry to hear it.

New Union Station. Impecably recorded, as always. A good system tester.

Happy birthday to the CEO and President of ECP Audio!

Sorry for your loss, Al. From the stories you told about him he seemed like a good dude. RIP.

Happy birthday, DOTU!

I moved into the new place this weekend. Moving sucks, but hopefully that was the last move I need to make in a good while.
