Even the TSA has some fun.
On a whim, I checked out band cramp dot com. It is not owned by band camp. Instead, it redirects to good night kiss band dot com, which is dead. I hope you’ve learned something?
Flying early tomorrow morning to Palm Spring. I am excited to be warm. 🌴
I’ve been listening to a lot of Liar by The Jesus Lizard. Angry noise rock is very emotionally relevant for me right now. Who am I kidding, it always is. 🎵
I haven’t been posting regularly. The onslaught of Nazi noise from up top has been smacking me around. That is, of course, the goal. Yet, as we well know, we can’t post our way out of this. Keep your head up, and do what you can. Despite everything, they are ultimately a bunch of pathetic losers. 🇺🇸

Some mornings, you just breathe. ☕️

So much to ruminate on, to feel through. Dederer is both cogent and emotionally honest, clear eyed, resilient, and heartbroken. Fantastic.

My co-owner Helena shared this Shari Lewi’s brilliant Lamb Chop screen test from 1958. If you grew up with her, I dare you to not be warmed.

Electronic music pioneer Suzanne Ciani released an early live concert on band camp. Recommend. 🎵
A beautiful poem by Emily Gorcenski about what it’s like to see the world right now. The Time of Cowards.

Perfect movie. Read more

My friend Alex reminded me of the time we performed in a drag show circa 2008. We did a little comedy medley and lip synced some tunes. That’s me on the right. We’re looking good.
I’m choosing to recognize only one significant event today. Reflecting on Martin Luther King Jr seems a lot more productive.
I’m drinking iced coffee out of a Guinness glass this morning and feel like the biggest lush.
What if lycanthropy effected other animals? “Watch out! That squirrel? During a full moon, it’ll be a weasel.”
Even if you could convince people, who would care?
