i love to tell my silly little stories

anyways, that guy sucks and "Come" is my favorite Prince album, and i'm glad I got to see him play live once, even if he made his backup singers sing sarah maclachlan's "angel" while he left the stage to yell at the sound guy

i walked up to a bar, and the bartender put "Paisley Park" on. i realized the man to my left was my former job's main investor; a man my boss made me change out of a dress for in order to keep the money flowing. the man was wearing The Red Hat. i heard him say "it's a conversation piece."

i said, "don't fuck with me, man" and he said "i'm not" and i turned around and my boss and co-workers looked at me aghast and said "we didn't want to tell you!" and i said "i'm clocking out." and i did, and went down to the basement and cried.

10 years ago today i had such bad allergies at work my boss gave me a benadryl and it knocked me out. i was trying to do the dishes when a customer stumbled into the dish pit, hand over heart. i managed to ask him "hey, what's going on?" and he looked at me, red-eyed, and said, "Prince died."

if only a billion people would take this video to heart

when i am way too high, the only thing that can help is a viewing of "masks" (also who else out there knew the God is named "corgano" because the writer loved the pumpkins (me, i did))

The more I think about CNN's utterly irresponsible approach to this article, the angrier I get

SO cool and SO proud and happy to see El here!!!

let us not consider the decade i spent drinking wine from these

the ketchup and mustard man, from “the ketchup and mustard man,” dir. cory mcabee, 1993

crossover event where this guy shows up

@derekbgayle.bsky.social if he had some lil curls on that chest, that's hog heaven

people still hated lodger until 2013!

it's weird that it was weird that i wrote that one week one band about him in the 90s!!!

it's weird that 15 years ago a lot of people still really didn't like anything bowie did in the 90s if they'd heard it at all

soon

i don't think it is! i've been thinking on this hard and outside of some of Riker's "I'm a Serious Guy" characterization that gets toned down later, you do get a good idea of what everyone's deal is

that to me sounds like a wild pick for someone with zero prior knowledge? do you think anything with Tasha, let alone the status quo, would resonate if you didn't know who/what they were?

if you had to pick one episode of TNG to show someone who has never seen a frame of it and wouldnt even necessarily recognize the characters what would you pick

this is what Wet Leg sounds like to me

😈

This is single handedly the funniest scene from any Star Trek

everything sucks and it happened 20 years ago

or is it just that i do actually feel extremely let down (fuck you) by radiohead and especially billy corgan (ugh i hate myself) like yes i know all your heroes are bad but idk man... everything sucks lol

i could finish my long ass album in like a week if i focused on it but... what's the point, lol lmao lol

i retreated from all the major scenes due to my sobriety and it makes me feel even more an outsider than i already was. anyways, time to go back to chicago, sober for the first time, a city of alcohol... jesus christ

is it just because i've completed a project that i feel like "well okay this is it" or is that something deeper

I REALLY DONT WANT TO GO TO CHICAGO NEXT WEEK
