If I could have any #superpower it would be Dagwood Bumstead’s sandwich-making ability.

@RichardHatem Interested in your take on this article since I’m sure you deal with toxic fandoms in your line of work. How do you prevent overly sensitive studio execs from killing good work? variety.com/2024/tv/news/s…

@bmcd67 Great seeing you as well! I really want to hear about Vegas. Folks I know who saw Phish there said it was incredible. (Sorry for the delayed response, I've moved to Mastodon these days.)

@aburtch good to see you tonight. Sorry we didn’t have time to chat. Definitely want to catch up as I’m going out to Vegas next week to see dead and Company at the Sphere

Just entered this @yeproc contest for a VIP experience at Merlefest 2024! Enter here: toneden.io/yeprocrecords/…

Found it. It was the Hendrix vs. Clapton episode of the "Rivals" podcast.

@Steven_Hyden I have a memory of you doing a podcast where you (correctly) called out Eric Clapton for being nothing but a sideman at best. Also talked about Duane Allman needing to come in and save his ass on a “classic” album. Can you point me to this episode?

@yeproc Where can I get a Yeproc sticker? Didn't see one in the store. Got a new car and wanted to support my favorite label!

@TessPfeifle Hope the move went well! (PS - I've primarily moved to Mastodon. @aburtch" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">triangletoot.party/@aburtch)

@aburtch Needed some inspo! Moving the last week has been rough on my brain and this looks like the perfect rabbit hole. Thank you for your keen eye!

@TessPfeifle Interesting article. Might make a good blog post. Adventurers, Yeti, Bigfoot, & the CIA. topsecretumbra.substack.com/p/the-secret-h…

@benjy_eisen @suzydrano We have a great #Phish scene on Mastodon. Check out the shakedown.social instance. That’s the one you’ll want to join. Lots of ex-Twitter Phish folks are already there.

@suzydrano I’d migrate to Thread, if only that was happening - the initials already make it work: PT (Phish Threads). Until then, for better or worse, X marks the spot. Like Satan on the beach.

Is the phish scene on mastodon just basically PT? The x thing is starting to piss me off

@mikelowetpt @suzydrano Wilmington is nice. Brand new and really nice. Total capacity is 7,200, so small for a Phish venue.

all reports Orion sickest venue ever

Braves in 1st inning, 2023: 91 runs, most of any team in any inning 29 HR, most of any team in any inning 128 hits, most of any team in any inning +66 run diff, 24 runs better than any other team in any inning

@robmitchum 🤣

@robmitchum I'd love to hear the "Birds of a Feather" needle drop on Dawson's Creek. 😂

@MollyJongFast This is exhibit A in "we don't actually live in anything close to an actual democracy." The fact that a minority party can force such a major and unpopular policy without repercussion is extremely telling.

One of the things that that’s so striking about this is that overturning roe continues to be wildly unpopular Nearly 80% of female voters ages 18-49, two-thirds of suburban women, 60% of independents and even a third of Republican voters say they disapprove.

It’s been a year since we lost bodily autonomy. In that year we’ve learned that republicans were lying when they said this was about states rights.

@KevinRothermel I've moved to Mastodon and love it. Pros: no ads, no brands, much calmer, genuine engagement / conversation. Cons: Instances are not tied together so finding your "people" is hard and there is no global search function at all. So it matters what instance you join.

Is anyone else here using the other community that is named after the color of the sky on a sunny day?

@curiousordinary @NIGHTLIBRARY @TessPfeifle

@FOS He's suffering from an acute case of "hypocrisy" and a breakdown of his essential "moral functions." Doctors are recommending a large infusion of cash and a new "DGAF" treatment.

PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan is taking a leave of absence as he recovers from “a medical situation.”

So if the @PGATOUR merges with LIV Golf (and the European Tour!?) that would create a monopoly with one entity controlling all of professional golf. (Similar to MLB NFL, etc.) and since we know in this society the one with the most money gets the most say, the Saudis now own golf

@JomboyMedia PS - Their owner is a great follow on LinkedIn too. linkedin.com/in/yellowtuxje…

@JomboyMedia I never thought you could do "Harlem Globetrotters" with baseball, but damn that team looks fun.

This is the definition of ATHLETICISM
