To all my friends in domestic surveillance:Hi there, sports fans!

The #WFMU Woof-Moo Android app is fantastic, but it's a little hard to navigate at first. Here's an excellent, easy-to-understand guide to help you with that (from the developer's website): https://www.dexterouslogic.com/wfmu/help/

Meanwhile the WFMU fundraiser is on til March 15 so don't forget to pledge!

β€ͺThere is no greater bastion of 21st-century counterculture than #WFMU. Its fast-moving fundraiser is on now 'til March 15, and hearing some of the adrenaline-fueled DJ tag-teams is like getting a jolt of electricity. That's good, because If you, me, & every other listener don't support it (at https://wfmu.org) -- its transmitters, its servers, its people, its lifeblood -- WFMU could easily become just a memory. #freeform #radio #experimental #prog #electronic #psych #punk #hardcore

Thomas Zimmer is one of the most astute writers on our moment. I very highly recommend subscribing.

2/3 . . . the Byrds, Jerry Lee Lewis, Tetragon, Kikagaku Moyo, Allen Ginsberg and a nice little band calling themselves the Rolling Stones.

Oh, and I let it all hang out with a primal scream at the end of the show.

we'll hear music from Weird Paul, Ultimate Spinach, Electric Orange, Angry Samoans, Akasha, Mudhoney, the Pretty Things, Twink, . . .

U-Boot has joined SFC! We're thrilled such a storied and important project has decided to join up with us. Thanks to U-Boot, so many devices are able to have open boot loaders and preserve our digital rights.

U-Boot has joined Software Freedom Conservancy

We're so happy to announce that Das U-Boot, the Universal Bootloader, will be joining SFC! U-Boot is the most popular generic-purpose bootloader and is critical to ensuring that devices remain as open and free as possible. U-Boot has been essential for embedded linux products and is the de facto standard across various processor architectures.

extremely "vineland" like moment in graham st. john's extraordinary new biography of terence mckenna, "strange attractor" #psychedelics
A totally misleading #headline in the #WSJ, deliberately meant to scare you. Not until you get two-thirds of the way down you see "or another compliant ID, such as a passport." What is up with this crap? #REALID

...Todd Rundgren, the Ramones, James Brown and Country Joe.
Plus two exquisite pieces from Ed Sanders, one of which you won't hear anywhere else, and words of wisdom from your favorite nitrous-oxide-huffing philosopher, William James.
