@7tingxxs Ratchet belts like Anson.

Here's my version of "Sugar" by Stanley Turrentine. I played the chords on the loop sampler (not shown) before playing the head and some improvised solos.

Just gotta find my cubit ruler and get busy building an ark.

The m-dash (—) has become a shibboleth identifying you as an AI plagiarist. I started my blog back in 2013, and my m-dash use was considerable. I published about forty 3000-word essays on music, music history, and music technology. All include at least one m-dash, so now I look like an illiterate clown. https://t.co/YRD9Z8A77r

@colin_dunlap Amen, brother. What a bunch of soulless goblins avenging their mediocrity by attempting to destroy what others have created.

I’ve yet to solve the riddle of womanhood.

I just shoveled my driveway and walkway by hand. Pretty sure I closed my fitness ring for the day😂. The yardstick reads about 11 inches of snow. ❄️

Dear Tech Companies,

Stop making ear buds or headphones that have touch controls. I never want the player to stop or the volume to be changed when I touch the device. 100 percent of the time I am only adjusting the fit, not attempting to stop the player. You’ve must’ve heard this criticism before, so just stop manufacturing your devices with annoying features.

Sincerely,

Every Human on Earth

@MrDanielBuck They were too busy learning how to more perfectly hate and blame western civilization to waste time on writing, speaking, and counting.

I don’t always shred this hard. But when I do, I make sure I’m in the meat department of the local grocery store.

I like the part of the Declaration where Jefferson lists the King’s “Injuries and Usurpations” using the rhetorical device, “HE has…” Cicero would’ve been proud.

@colin_dunlap Hell yeah, homie. We got the special, bicentennial birth certificate and everything.

@realMaalouf With the second amendment.

@colin_dunlap I call it the “guy, man, dude” problem. What’s up, man? Dude, how’s it going? Sup, guy? I usually just bite the bullet, apologize, and ask them their name.

@ramprasad_c Boeing builds airframes, 787 engines are made by Rolls-Royce or General Electric.

Here's my version of "Have You Met Miss Jones" from Joe Pass' album, Virtuoso. It's a composite of three takes. I couldn't quite get a completely perfect run through. Trying to play like Pass in an exercise in humility.

@BGatesIsaPyscho Paper is flat, the world is round, so the world on paper will be wrongly shaped.
