@saniyafatma1278 😞 so sorry for your loss

Every day, I see numerous posts about people’s pets passing away and how painful it is. I “like” each post because I feel each pet deserves it. Today it’s my turn. After three weeks, our adopted rescue dog, Max, passed away today. It was the hardest decision we’ve ever had to make, but we know he’s now pain-free and running happily. He was the sweetest, kindest boy. My posts never get many views, but if you could look at the pics of our sweet guy, I’d really appreciate it.

Though I do resent that the current algorithm uses the “for you” feed primarily to show you the people who are subtweeting(which everyone knows is snitch behavior, let people hate in peace)… It’s beautiful that anyone has opinions on this band—one way or another—28 years later.

@ByCASimmons @SonsofUCF Lots of us were loud and the whole arena got into it at the end during the comeback. Very fun atmosphere

Have to give a ton of credit to the UCF fans in the arena. Chants and cheers have been loud and clear all night

Our March may be over, but we Charge On 🫡

@LukeSarrisUCF Yes and the offense is clueless. I ALs follow Siena. Mac has his kids playing the toughest, grittiest game I’ve ever seen and UCF has so much talent and no organization. I really feel it’s coaching at this point. Dawkins can do it (c.f. Duke game) but it’s not consistent enough

17 turnovers and only made 5 of 16 free throws in the biggest game of the year. The team failed in some of the most important areas tonight and that’s why we’re going home. It was a solid season and nice to make the tournament but it ended with a lot of the same old stuff we’ve seen year after year.

I’m a sad knight. Hell of a game.

@UCF_MBB here we go!

I was at this tour and this show in particular!

@stanfordsays Gotta listen when I get home. Crazy day today in Philadelphia

@makes_chris In honor of anniversary I just threw this cover on SoundCloud I did of Places You Have Come to Fear the most that I'm never going to release. soundcloud.com/starkcontrastb…

As I was starting out as a songwriter no album shaped me more. Happy 25th birthday to Dashboard Confessional - The Places You Have Come to Fear the Most.

Philly…… I’ve arrived.

@stanfordsays Amazing song. Honestly there’s like 30 songs you could have picked and I’d be down for it.

@makes_chris Let's cover this. youtube.com/watch?v=Y3NEps…

and now I know why I love Matt’s songs.

@stanfordsays Swap mineral with Get Up Kids and New AMS with the anniversary and you have mine. Honorable mentions to NorthStar, New AMS, the Weakerthans, and counting crows

@makes_chris Top 5 influences when I started 1. Dashboard - The Places You Have Come to Fear the Most 2. Jimmy Eat World - Clarity 3. Mineral - EndSerenading 4. Smashing Pumpkins (all albums) 5. The New Amsterdams (all albums)

It’s almost the season where locals get to hear me belting Further Seems Forever with my windows down as I drive through town.

Ohh also show announcement today!

Since the surgery I’ve been awake at 4 am every day. Finally snapped, Dr gave me sleeping pills. Now I’m awake at 4 am but I feel that if I stand up I’ll fall over.

@theteapartyband Friend showed me Edges of Twilight- one of the most underrated albums of all time.

When did you first get introduced to The Tea Party? Was it Much? Was it a friend? We'd love to know...

we've officially hit 100 monthly listeners! thanks to all of you for supporting and listening to us, despite us only having one song out. feels like a pretty good time to announce when our next song is gonna come out.. 👀

I can clap while watching sports in the house for the first time in a long time.
