It was a Rembrandt self portrait, maybe this one. I had seen it in book a ton but seeing it in person, you stood 5 or 6 feet away and it suddenly looked 3D and it blew me away how someone could paint it like that from arm’s length. Some art just needs to be seen in person to see the genius & skill!
@bandcamp.com for the week... I dunno everything released the last 6 months all feels the same. Black metal from folks who just like the aesthetic. Whiny metalcore. Pop that sounds too much like 90's Brit Pop and Indie scene stuff for me. Euro Power Metal. Post-post-post-punk. Yawn.
Tried an experiment... skipped a week... @bandcamp.com Friday wasn't great, and heavily padded by me filling out my collection of Immortal, looks like the rest I'll need to buy on CD. One of the best black metal bands out there.
This @democrats.org crowing about their Twitter owns is so pathetic. 1) how much money do you need to raise to do this? 2) this isn't what you need to focus on. NO ONE CARES. Twitter isn't real life, it's not where the votes happen. This is part of why Harris lost, they confused Twitter for reality.
I've spent like a day trying to figure out what shoes @speedballbailey.bsky.social wore on Dynamite, finally sleuthed out they are Mactelo's, thinking about getting a pair off of eBay because they look amazing, but not really made for around town wear.
I feel like no one is bothering to put anything on @bandcamp.com unless it's a special Bandcamp Friday at this point... there's virtually no new releases at all anymore!
LOL this dude looking like he saw Santa land on his roof with a Sega Master System with his name on it 😂
I love that the algorithm placed these two right next to each other hahaha
Only TWO things on @bandcamp.com this Friday that caught my ear, and one is a pre-order? This is getting so bad.
Another really awful @bandcamp.com Friday... in 2025 I was buying 2 - 3 times this amount of music every week. Everything in 2026 sounds so samesy!
Little sneak preview of what that monster looks like up close and personal… hope you get to go! 🤞🤞🤞
Last week: totally forgot to buy the DeathByRomy discog on @bandcamp.com like I've been wanting to do for a while now This week: the entire DeathByRomy discog has been removed from Bandcamp. Another weak week for Bandcamp. 😔
@bandcamp.com Friday was only rescued by the amazing @ministryband.bsky.social boxed set. There's virtually nothing releasing in 2026 that I care about so far, and it's kind of sad.
OK @bandcamp.com week, picked everything out yesterday but was so busy I didn't get around to hitting buy.
