Okay, let’s rock ‘n roll…

I suspect those of you who still have this thing in their RSS feed already know about my streaming radio show, but here goes. It’s still a thing! Although it’s bi-weekly now, because it takes up about 6 hours of my Saturday and I needed half of my Saturdays back. (It’ll go back to weekly when I retire, if I’m still doing it by then.)

You may have also seen my reaction on other socials to the passing of David Lindley, perhaps the greatest musician on this planet. That one hit me hard, as I’d been a big fan of Mr. Dave for at least 40 years. So, in case you missed it, here’s the 3-1/2 hour tribute show I did for him a few weeks back.

Let’s all get normal at the luau!

Oh look, it’s an undead (we)blog! Untouched by human hands in almost three years!

Hi, y’all.

I’ve been contemplating resurrecting it via various occult spells and black magic (i.e., actually posting on it again), but I have no idea if there’s anyone out there reading it. I supposed I could have been posting my streaming radio show playlists here (and yes, I’m still doing it!) but other things that cross my mind, just like back in the old blogging days.

I’d kinda been doing that on Twitter, but since Elon Fucking Musk bought it it’s dropped to an even deeper circle of Hell, and I suspect its says (and my days there) are numbered. I plan to go out in a bang by getting myself thrown off by swearing at a Republican, a Nazi (not much difference these days), a TERF, or just some annoying rando fucknuckle. We’ll see.

It’s a pity, there’s still a great Star Trek community there, cooks and chefs, science fiction and fantasy writers, et al. I do enjoy those people. But the right-wing trolls are of course still there, encouraged by Musk as he actually reactivates the accounts of literal Nazis who’d been previously banned. Now he’s made his remaining coders change Twitter’s code so that you actually get your own reach diminished if you block or mute other accounts.

Anyway, I have no idea if people still use RSS feeds (Google continues to have made an ENORMOUS mistake by killing Google Reader; I use Feedly myself), but if you do, and you see this, and you won’t mind recurring content, please holler at me!
