#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Frankie Goes To Hollywood - Welcome To The Pleasuredome (1984). Trevor Horn’s presence, often replacing the band’s studio performances, is unmistakeable. Also, the only debut studio double-album I’m aware of. #music #newwave #pop #synthrock youtube.com/playlist

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds (1966). In honor of the passing of #BrianWilson, I’m throwing on one of the greatest albums of all time. Give a listen and take it in. Everyone should listen at least once in their lifetime. #music #progpop #artrock youtube.com/playlist

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Poe - Haunted (Bonus Track Version)(2006). Blending #triphop, #hardrock, #poprock, dance, sampling, and her dead father’s audio letters to his children, Haunted creates an #altrock concept album that is very listenable. #music youtube.com/playlist

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Big Wreck - Albatross (Anniversary Edition)(2025). A reissue of 2012’s triumphant return after a decade since they disbanded, this new edition includes previously unreleased versions and material. #music #rock #canrock www.youtube.com/watch

Um… WOW!? I hope to see this on #PC and not just #XBOX. It’s called Clockwork Revolution and has some rather biting British wit. Looks like a real hoot! #videogames #gametrailers www.youtube.com/watch
#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: GHS3 (2002) Frank Gambale (guitars), Stuart Hamm (bass), and Steve Smith (drums) duke it out with some blazing #JazzFusion from three titans of #JazzRock. Wear headphones for this one. #music www.youtube.com/watch

There is one brain sickness that can’t be fixed by mere herd immunity: stupidity. It’s not that stupid people take over, but that smart people are suspending their critical thinking skills in response to a social climate that rewards doing so. #uspol #TFG #fascism www.youtube.com/watch

Checking out the closed #Surf app beta from #Flipboard, a new “social browser” that supports #ActivityPub, #ATProto, and #RSS. It needs more work, like dark mode and desktop font sizing, but I like what I see so far. Sign up, but I don’t know how long it’ll take. #socialmedia surf.social
You know, I might just go back to #Apple #Notes if this rumor is true. Fortunately we’ll find out soon. I’d love to be able to write up notes and short stories on a whim, then export them as #markdown to drop straight into #Microblog. #apps #writing #WWDC2025 daringfireball.net/linked/20…
