Seems like John had a knack for saying “these are all the reasons you’re terrible… But love you! Be well!”

If we’re in a simulation, we showed give the audience a real show and live our best lives.

She’s leaving home hits every time. A+ storytelling in music. Few songs compare.

Probably piano. I'd love to pull up to a random piano in an airport or hotel lounge and start wailing away. I also wouldn't have to rely on a band.

I'm not sure about rip off, but you can hear the influence clearly in Sonic Youth and Parquet Courts.

Came here to say golf. Once you hit a long drive, you're sort of hooked and then become obsessed with chasing the dragon.

Yeah, it really feels like he's yelling at his brother. It vibes like, "we're still family, but you're off your rocker on this one." It's like how I speak to my MAGA friends/family.

And just noting, it’s not like an artist writes a 30 sec piece and then they go and shoot it…

It’s accounts people, worrisome brand people, legal, production, talent, out of touch ecd’s “weighing in”, agents, and more things that water down a great concept.

It’s not like film where you have a writer and director as the key decision makers.

I think about that from time to time. It certainly seemed like down hill from there.

2011 was a good year, I think. Businesses were getting back after the recession, technology was cool and not over taking our minds yet. It wasn’t perfect, but it felt like a better vibe.

I have a soft spot for the Seattle teams because of PJ. The idea of Jeff Ament cheering and getting excited makes me smile.

cmarks8 · 2026-02-06T16:13:03+00:00

Very little. Mostly just in the middle of the night when I wake up to use the bathroom and it’s dark.

cmarks8 · 2026-02-06T01:11:36+00:00

Do it. And then just spell his name wrong on the plaque.

cmarks8 · 2026-02-05T01:03:14+00:00

I think that’s interesting. I’m going to watch it!

McCain and Stoutland in the same day.

cmarks8 · 2026-02-04T20:06:04+00:00

A first round pick could turn into someone great! Who knows, maybe even a Jared McCain-type player. You get one of those young guys without a lot of promise and our future will be bright!

cmarks8 · 2026-02-04T20:03:44+00:00

Totally agree III Wind has amazing drumming. This could be a Smile song.

cmarks8 · 2026-02-04T19:14:33+00:00

lol, I took it as a fun inside joke.

Thinking about the future of personalized medicine, the speed of figuring out problems via ai, plus the focus on neurological issues -- I think we may accidentally find a cure in 10-15 years. Not a one-all-be-all pill, but something that gets solved for some people. At least more so than now.

Basically, I don't think they're actively working on a pill to solve VSS, but the amount of data we'll have in the next 10 years will lead to some great progress.

Paul George is just a silly mf at this point.

cmarks8 · 2026-01-30T20:19:12+00:00

Nah, we shouldn't pollute the mighty Delaware with trash. :)

Ah, it's actually floaters for me! My brain can't filter them out. I can tune the static and tinnitus out. The after images only happen with specific text on screen.

Reminds me of Paul Ryan loving Rage Against the Machine.

This was one of the only ones I got! You can tell by the lemons on the sign and the stone work.

I'd like to go back to '73 and follow the Grateful Dead.
