Here's to you and yours having a Blessed New Year. PEACE!

Nothing describes the state of the union better than this, Trump staring out in "senior moment" mode while someone passes out in the Oval Office

Largest line I've ever seen for an odd number year election - last minute voters (like me) out into the parking lot. And this turn out came just on TX State Constitutional amendment proposals. Good to see some involvement by the community.

It's been 11 years since I left NYC, after being a resident for 17 years, so my opinion on this is kinda moot. But if I was still there, think my vote for Mayor would go to Joseph Hernandez, a Cuban immigrant running as an independent, whose policy approach (apart from him pushing "AI" as a way to increase efficiency) seems more pragmatic than Mamdani's in several key areas. Sadly, given Hernandez is outside of the "two party system" his voice was absent from the debates. #nycelections #politics
HOW I AM DEALING WITH WIN10 EOL:
Security support for the general public with Windows 10 ends tomorrow. I've been using Windows as the OS for my own DAWs for 31 years now,- but the craptastic inclusion of bloat & spyware under the cloak of "AI" in Windows 11, along with the fact that my older PC desktops in my studio that work just fine for stereo audio processing were deemed as not officially upgradeable by MS, made me decide to go over to the "other side."

Honored and privileged to have mastered a fantastic album, entitled "Drifting Off", for the veteran Oklahoma based band "Wakeland", who have returned to making music both live and in the studio some 30 years after their start. This is real deal rock from the heart - highly recommended! Always a pleasure to work from the mixes of producer/guitarist Brad Heinrich as well. Check it!

Always fun for me to have a rare attended mastering session (nearly all the orders I do are online these days), in this case doing an EP of real deal Texas country, rock & blues, yesterday for guitarist/singer/songwriter Clark Kaupke & producer/engineer/keyboardist Ron D'Argenio. Keep an eye out for "Front Porch Chronicles" coming out soon. #mastering #recording #atx #texascountry #studio #music #austin

Seen in our local boba spot, HufflePuff and Temu, super cute long hair chihuahuas. Temu was super sweet (especially for a chihuahua) too.

Death via execution by vigilante should never be the answer to even the most hateful of speech. Self defense can only rightfully be invoked against those actually initiating force, not those just speaking.
But, the veneration Kirk is getting from the right, plus the normalization of his views from the msm, is totally out of line with someone that advocated for stoning gay people (among numerous other of his screeds calling for violence).
