I'm shocked the Russian Olympic doping scandal isn't a much bigger story. Not that I follow 'the news' all that closely but I just visited ESPN's homepage and it's nowhere. Feel very confused.

Whoa it's Friday the 13th... spooky.

Not sure if anyone recorded Mac DeMarco's epic crowdsurf->balcony dive last night. Oh wait everyone did. I was gonna take out my phone too but then I was like, "you know something, these people standing in front of me actually have a better angle." So I let the minions do the work. I'll try to capture and post some of the best vids of this madness later. 

How was the show? Really great. All I do is go to shows because of how cool and relevant I am but this one felt genuinely special. 

The Flickr iPhone app is actually pretty decent. I think it could really take off as a social media network. Yahoo! products 4 life.

Oh, I know what I forgot to mention on one of my delightful recent podcast episodes! The singer/guitarist/keyboardist on the righthand side of the stage with the beautiful hair had a bum leg and he kept saying he was sitting on a chair when it was in fact a stool (he was wrong) but he was also using crutches to get on and off the stage and this brought up a discussion with my bro about an opinion I've held dearly for years: crutches are useless. There is a time when you are essentially immobile and there is a time when you can limp around with a boot or brace or maybe just a cane. Crutches technology (Big Crutch?) is a stagnant field, my friends. Literally no one on crutches needs crutches. But that's just my 0.02¢.

Instagram rebrands with new logo mere hours after I delete my account. Coincidence?

The name of this band is THE Pizza Puppies

Not "Pizza Puppies," sorry for the confusion but getting a lot of inquiries and need to clear this up. The membership takes this stuff very seriously.

They say. They say 

Latest edition to our list of premium FAKE SONGS: "The Pope… Business Antelope?" We here at My America Industries hope to make all of these FAKE SONGS real one day and that is a promise.

A NEW WAY OF DOING

I've deleted all (well, most) of my social media feeds (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram). The only ones I am still using will be strictly because I like the programs for art-making purposes and wasn't even using them for 'networking' to begin with: Vine (R.I.P.), Snapchat, etc.

This is an experiment, just like everything else. An experiment in focus. I will still look at Feedly to keep up on new music news, but all other content channels are closed for business. I will be using this blog + my tumblr (re-rebranded as shrimpkardashian) to put my things into the world. I will also be using this blog in association with Flickr and YouTubes to do 'Twitter-like' musings and 'live' content posts.

But my main goal at this point is to focus on the music and arts career of the Pizza Puppies collective, of which I am proud to announce that I am their new manager, as I continue to work on making My America Industries great again. It's all happening so fast!

Great basketball game. Did not see that Westbrook barrage coming. Going to see Parquet Courts tomorrow night. 

On tumblr officially and forever, they call me shrimpkardashian

Thank you for being online

This is a screengrab from a convo I am currently having with a dude from Overstock dot com about getting some cash back for the slightly damaged bookshelf I built/ Tom thanked me for being online. It felt nice. I am just a Visitor. Aren't we all?

Woody Allen’s Manhattan: Intro with Kid Rock’s “Bawitdaba”

When I tweeted about this video (before I deleted my account) it got 30+ RTs and over 50 likes (née favs) on the 29th day of April, 2016. Listen to this episode of The Best Show for the full origin story of this ridiculous video. UPDATE 2020: Vimeo deleted the original file but I re-upped it here (and below), and I'm now just realizing that Complex freaking did a blog post about this back in the day haha, referring to me as a "crafty filmmaker" ha–I'll take it! (if you actually search - - there are a bunch of posts about it; weirdly I had no idea at the time outside of the minor traction it got via The Best Show's audience.)

What happened to the last 10 days?

LOL. Who knows. Back to our regularly scheduled blogrammming shortly.
