Not really posting here now, Elon has gone too far off the deep end. Linktree has the various places you can reach me.

You can find me on the fediverse/mastodon at redwombat.social/@rangerrick, Bluesky at bsky.app/profile/rangerrick.…, and IG at instagram.com/raccoonfink/ although I don't post there really, just occasionally like stuff so I get more funny music and kitten posts.

Since I logged in long enough to post about my live show, I guess I'll post this here too. I've set up a discord for NC Triangle whisky drinkers. Join us! discord.gg/jZaxyUSG (This link will self destruct in a week to avoid botspam.) #RTP #TriangleNC #whisky

In light of today being @NHLCanes Whalers Night, I suppose this is a good time to point out that I made a ridiculously cheesy lounge version of Brass Bonanza. Maybe someday they’ll play it in the arena… thatbenjaminreed.bandcamp.co…

A challenge tasked folks to write a track about the most-used emoji on our phone; mine was colored squares from pasting Wordle & Connections scores with friends. Here is a... passionate song about that: raccoonfink.bandcamp.com/alb… #NYTConnections #Connections #IndieMusic #Bandcamp

The truest sign of my dis-engagement from Twitter is not realizing until a day later I never bothered to post about my new album here.

Full album is now available on Bandcamp.

There are still plenty of folks I follow here that I really enjoy keeping up with, but if I'm not drawing a line in the sand at "the anti-defamation league is why Twitter is failing" and "the Nazis are celebrating how Twitter has changed" then where exactly do I do it?

This sucks. Twitter is a place where I've made friendships, kept up with tons of entertaining people, & gotten the majority of my news. Not to mention learning a lot about leftist organizing & issues. But "I'm costing Elon money by using it" isn't enough justification anymore.

It was surprisingly well-thought-out for a dream scenario that also included, for no apparent reason, a shapeshifter disguised as a lemon.

This is basically how I feel about all ironic parody accounts now.
Replying to @VeryBadLlama
Even if it’s a parody account, what’s the point? We’ve all been beaten to a pulp for a bazillion years now by Poe’s Law and men playing devil’s advocate. Please, for the love of plants, can’t they just find other hobbies? Lion wrestling, maybe? Competitive mushroom foraging?

People making light of Burning Man attendees stranded in the mud maybe don't realize it does slow poison damage and you can't dodge roll or run unless you equip the Rusted Iron Ring

Official MLB rules defines the strike zone by "top of pants". i can't find anywhere in the rules that says player "must" wear pants though so technically if a batter doesn't wear pants he will draw a walk every time- a potential new strategy for late in games

Struggling to figure out how 8 billionaires who want to replace workers with robots are losing the narrative to 10,000 professional storytellers and the 150,000 hottest people in the world

The wretched children of Generation Z would look at you with dead-eyed incomprehension if you were to reference to them “Zamfir, Master of the Pan Flute.”
