#firstwave — Public Fediverse posts

While on the sidewalk, as a fun consolation prize, we go to meet the members of #ABC who were out there just like us, #Howard Jones who was in the back, & host of the evening, #RichardBlade for SiriusXM:s #FirstWave & formerly #KROQ's Flashback Lunch.

I should be working on job applications right now, but I just can't seem to be focused. Instead, I'm listening to my #PetShopBoys singles collection.

I had forgotten what a great song "Numb" for their "Fundamental" is. I will admit I am a fan of electronic artists that combine their music with orchestras. The Pet Shop Boys also did this with "Jealousy" from their "Behaviour" album.

For context, this was only moments before seeing that awful #ElonMusk tweet that just couldn't be unseen. (I'll leave you to decide which one since there have been so many of them 🤣). So, thank you, Elon, for confirming my gut instincts and justifying my exodus even WAY before you'd decided to buy Twitter. I was part of the early (and much more intimate and polite!) #socialmediascene (circa 2007), well before the #firstwave #twitterexodus to FB, yet another platform I've long since abandoned.🤣

@mmasnick OMG I was suspicious about pancreatic cancer. :( It's the worst news you can get. The absolute worst. Poor guy, RIP.
