Hey guys should it concern me that this happened directly over my front yard because I will admit I do not feel great about that

Wet Leg is the best band name to say when you’ve got a kinda southern Appalachian accent. It’s like “way-ut lay-gh.”

Hello. I have been absent from this place. I need to tell you that I hosted a couple of public events at my job and they went so well that I had a few days of asking myself, “Should I start a podcast right now?” Because the world probably needs another dude talking about things.

Is moist January a thing? Because that’s apparently what I’m doing.

Respect to Hopper for the Heflin, AL Ace Hardware hat — that’s right down the road from where my grandad grew up

Some of y’all know this already but the only correct amount of greens and beans to prepare on January 1 is a “mess.”

Can confirm that they also tasted good

Layered shortbread with caramel and chocolate on top.

Have been on a spectacular run of eating unhealthy things for most of the month. I bake things like this millionaire shortbread now and try not to consume it all.

imo if all the richest ppl on the planet are at once begging you to lower your standards for art and media consumption you can bet that it benefits them more than whatever they selling your ass on and should consider the opposite of what's suggested

I kept wondering, “why is this one all sliding around in my eye, maybe it’s allergies!” And finally it dawned on me. Things are going well, obviously.

No! I managed this feat even with taking them out every night!

I have been walking around for four straight days with one of my contacts inside out ama

Joe Ely: A Love Letter in 16 Songs David with some favorite songs by an artist we love

R.I.P. to one of the great ones, roots rocker extraordinaire Joe Ely. Glad we had a chance, back in August, to celebrate a Joe Ely Week at No Fences Review: I wrote about my favorite Ely solo cuts and (link in comments) @charleshughes2.bsky.social essayed the Letter to Laredo album.

I would do well to always keep that in mind

I’m actually pretty nice in person I promise

Question: is it bad form to mute large bsky accounts with which you largely agree purely on grounds that they are annoying as fuck?

A surprising number of homes for sale in Davidson County tbh

One of the all-time great singers and certainly the greatest party band Nashville has encountered in ages.

Brittany is the best. Hire her to do some of them words for you!

Spent the holiday weekend around my people in Alabama and just across the Georgia border so now my accent has been restored to factory settings and no one in Nashville can understand anything I’m saying.

Thank you!!

Thank you!!

This, I suppose, is 46. I had a good weightlifting sesh this morning and my lovely coworkers got me pastries, so things are off to an excellent start.

We’re coming for all of your media!

Some two-decade old newspaper headlines I found while doing research:

“Musicians play sports in addition to music”

“Gays getting greater media prominence”

(I love the second one. It has that ominous ring to it, though the article was pretty positive)

Look I know we are all thinking it but I am just going to say it: Zach Top has a very nice face.

Thing I have only just learned today because I am an idiot: slicing your finger open on aluminum foil is actually possible, and it is every bit as horrifying as you might imagine.

What can I say? New Orleans just has a way of exposing the filthy romantic that dwells inside me. I’d be flummoxed if I had to do the same for, say, Orlando.
