I’d agree with the other person that said to watch Gemstones through the second season just for Goggins as Baby Billy. I enjoyed Dave through the end. There were some weird as hell episodes with some interesting guest stars. Gata has a couple episodes where he shines the brightest

I started playing tennis 1-2 times a week and it’s been great. Also stretching in the morning works wonders

I am integrated into the Sonos ecosystem and it works great for having the whole house being connected without running wires or taking up a lot of space. Yes, the app is garbage but the speakers sound really good. It’s great having the continuity of walking from room to room and having the music follow you. I have the Sonos Amp hooked up to a pair KEF bookshelf speakers for my fluance record player which can play what’s on the turntable to my other speakers throughout the house.

I have also been looking for a synth/groove box recently. I’ve been doing deep dives in tutorials/reviews on YouTube, sweetwater, and reverb. The price point is all over the place with some sub $300 US machines that have cool features but steep learning curves to the multi $K machines that can do it all. I’m a total noob to sampling and beat making so I’m probably going to go the cheaper route and also snag a used Korg monologue synth. Here’s the few that I’ve been looking into:

Roland P6

Yamaha SeqTrak

Elektron Digitakt II

There’s also the legendary Akai MPC (praise to J Dilla) for chopping samples and beat making.

If you’re into tinkering and into open source software look up Bespoke Synth. It’s digital modular synth that you can use external hardware and link to a DAW

And don’t forget you can always get a midi keyboard and use your DAW of choice.

I too have been playing it on repeat. I played it around the house today and my wife agreed that it slaps

Ah, the Rathole. Simpler times

I came across a YouTube video on doing trees in ink so I figured I’d give it a go. I used a micron 03 tech pen.

I used the tartine basic country bread loaf recipe to throw together these Focaccia. We’re having a block party today and my intent is to slice them in half to make Caprese sandwiches with tomatoes and basil from my garden.

 
 

The original flash was black and gray. I asked my artist to follow his heart with the colors and he absolutely crushed it.
