has a new album out today, and iโm overjoyed. amelia is my favorite person on earth and making music with her is the honor of a lifetime. thank you to everyone listening
canโt wait to drop this album of bangers that will inevitably fill the dancefloor with pensive 30-40 somethings crossing their arms and nodding thoughtfully
i played a beat for amelia the other day and she shrugged and said โwell, itโs intellectually interesting, but it definitely doesnโt fuck the pandemicโ and i have never felt more accurately burned in my whole life
ME: what a beautiful night. iโm just going to sit here and quietly watch the sunset
BRAIN: ... hey
ME: not now
BRAIN: ........ok but-
ME: please donโt
BRAIN: WITH ALL THE PLASTIC IN THE OCEAN YOU KNOW A SEA TURTLE MUST HAVE EATEN A CONDOM BY NOW, HERES A MOCK UP VIDEO I PREPARED

weโre playing kimmel tonight and the other guests are pt anderson and annette bening and does anyone here have a thunder shirt or asthma inhaler i can borrow
when i was young all i cared about was drums, then i matured a bit and it was just bass, and now itโs just hi hats. like literally give me ten different ones per track i canโt get enough. be bold make your track all hats itโs 2023 and weโll all be forgotten after we die who cares
i wish there was a world in which voting for democrats wasnโt a constant disappointment, where it didnโt merely feel like holding up a sieve against an unrelenting tide of hatred, greed, and idiocy. fucking do something, you cowards.
anyone else having that thing where the idea of continuing in general is sounding less and less cool and the idea of crawling into a playstation and never coming out again is sounding pretty good
man we drove from anacotes to seattle last night and blasted yankee hotel foxtrot straight thru and fuck if it didnโt take me right back to the absolute magic of music and being alive again
s/o to the tsa agent who was working the x-ray, squinted into the monitor as my synth went thru, then got a big grin on his face & looked up at me and said โi see you, manโ
just recorded my favorite band, now weโre listening to prince real loud and making matzo ball soup on this beautiful thursday night in america, hug yr friends yโall
the outbreak of war as australia burns is giving me a powerful, overwhelming sense of bleak despair and as this site only worsens my mental health, i think i need to not be on here for a while again. be kind to one another and see you in the real world ๐
just so i have this straight: they think we *shouldnโt* force anyone to get a life saving vaccine against their will but we *should* force someone to carry to term and then give birth to another human being against their will
durham is spending $80+ million on a new police headquarters while there's a fucking gofundme page to pay down durham public school's $103k lunch debt. what are we even doing here
i know the pandemic has been hard on us all but i just caught myself legitimately considering becoming a hades speedrunner, please keep me in your prayers during this difficult time โค๏ธ
of the bajillion terrible trends among our species right now, one of the least talked about yet most depressing is the one where people decide to never apologize for anything
the best band on earth just announced theyโre releasing a second album, and itโs really really good. i want to send giant internet gratitude to alexandra, molly, and amelia for asking me to be a part of this beautiful and inspiring experience, it was such a joy. ๐๐
2017: well, itโs between a civil rights lawyer who risked his life to prosecute the KKK for killing children and a guy who may have fucked kids, thinks gays deserve death and waves a gun around while wearing a cowboy costume, so itโll be close
while this is primarily a reminder that things that work for famous, very successful people will not work for everybody, itโs also nice to see someone in the former category making moves that elicit this much conversation about sustainability for people in the latter
itโs cool that emo is coming back, but itโd be even cooler if this time around it wasnโt just a way for incels to rebrand their toxic masculinity
in honor of the 10 year anniversary of our first record coming out i went back to the original session file and made a instrument rack preset out of the โblong blongโ sound i made for coffee, download away you nerds

as a producer, sophie made you rethink your entire musical worldview every time she put out something new, and you would still be 20 steps behind her last breakthrough while she was already on to the next one - there are literally only a handful of people this can be said about๐
very excited to announce that

boy it sure would be a shame if every snitch ass texan who made 10k on this anti abortion law somehow coincidentally also managed to suffer 10k in property damage
