I left the day after the election and don't plan on returning anytime soon 'cept to gank pics uploaded over the years. I figured cutting loose would break my habit of communicating with those way outside of my line of thinking and morals, but IG reels got a hold of me.

Instagram has gotten aggressively shitty too. Not MAGAfied necessarily, but just shoving creepily targeted ads and wannabe TikTok nonsense in your face. And established features keep breaking or are replaced with features nobody asked for.

I'll probably keep it around for the messenger but otherwise think I'm done with everything other than Bluesky (which is annoying in other ways but my own fault for not 'curating' it better.)

Is there a PRF handshake?

Yes, but it’s a multi-phased shake. When you attend a PRFBBQ, you become privy to the next phase.

I read that as a "Multi-thumbed shake" and that got me real excited

I couldn't go because my spouse had leukemia. You're going to do this to me???

I think it's funny that Michael Shannon and Jason Narducy are like, "Buddy! Wanna do an REM cover band?" and network late night TV is like, "Oh cool. You guys should do a song here!"

Just kidding. When you go to a bbq, you’re issued an aluminum replica of a hand. You shake hands with those. In between bands, you hear a lot of clinking.

Hahaha no wonder Electrical Guitar Co. is so busy

Lynyrd Synyrd's "Simple Man" is the most proto-Creed thing ever. It's like they invented the whole sensitive grunge genre that years later begat magic like Staind's ballads and Limp Bizkit's cover of "Behind Blue Eyes". It feels like the early 2000's were an nuclear arms race for who could be the biggest incel pussy while still in drop D.

So Amanda Palmer was brought up again a few months ago in another thread. In light of today's article in Vulture, not only is she still taking financial advantage of her fans but is also an active participant in her husband's vile, deprived acts. Fuck both of them to hell and back.
