No need to do any psychoactive substances for this one. Here, in all its glory, is Frontier Psychiatrist by The Avalanches.

Alice in Chains means a lot to me. It may sound strange to some, but their music helped me get through an especially difficult time of my life. I love all of their albums, but the dreamy, contemplative Jar of Flies is my favorite. I can't pick a 'best' from the tracks, because they're all solid. So if you've never heard this album before, here is the track Don't Follow as your official intro:

Get up off your chair and be happy. Today's pick should make it easy, plus it contains a shoutout to Christmas (and an F bomb, so even though you might want to crank it up, it's probably NSFW).

I inadvertently missed posting a pick yesterday, so I am posting two today. A fun, sweet song that somehow doesn't seem to age, and (trust me) one of the very few I will ever post that includes banjo, here is Hannah by Freelance Whales.

In 1990, this album was released in a genre that I might normally ignore (country rock/Americana). But the fact that the group was formed by Mark Knopfler (Dire Straits) made me curious. I'm glad I was, because this album remains, to this day, one of my favorites. The gorgeous engineering on this album (think Alan Parsons/Steely Dan) makes it shine. Here is Your Own Sweet Way by the Notting Hillbillies.

Mm. Breakfast tacos FTW.

Code's eclectic music pick of the day is:

Tears for Fears is one of my favorite groups, and their least-known album is probably one of the most perfect power/jangle-pop creations of all time, up there with Jellyfish, Jason Falkner, probably even the Beatles. Here is Call Me Mellow, from Everybody Loves a Happy Ending. If you dig it, check out the entire album, it's pure gold.

Similar methods exist for Mac/Linux, but you'll need to search for those instructions, as well.

This can also be done at your router level or Pi-Hole, if you are a power user. 😉

I'm getting tired of clicking on links (especially here) that take me to Twizzer. I do not wish to give the head twatwaffle any more of my eyeball and visit-value than necessary. Do you feel the same way? Here's what I did: for Windows, I edited my hosts file to add:

127.0.0.1 www.twitter.com
127.0.0.1 twitter.com
127.0.0.1 twttr.com
127.0.0.1 t.co
127.0.0.1 twimg.com

Then, when you accidentally click on a Twizz link, you won't go there. Search for instructions, and USE CAUTION, YMMV YADA^3

Hmm. A professional hacker who uses </br>? (from email received today)

No story today, just a great song from an artist I dig. Enjoy!
