Linkage

A collection of cool sites, friends, and inspiration from around the web. This page is always going to be evolving the most. Note that the Cool People / Friends section is going to be shortest for now only because most of my friends are still primarily on social media, which is okay.

Cool People / Friends

  • Mike Watt's Hoot Page - The legend himself.
  • The Tim "Napalm" Stegall Substack - My brother from another mother, frontman/guitarist of The Hormones, and one of America's finest music writers.
  • Two Broads, One Fork - A foodie YouTube channel hosted by former ECW personality Francine. (You're also going to see the wrestling-related content from her old podcast Eyes Up Here there as well; she retconned and renamed her original channel when 2026 started.)
  • One Revived - Local psychobilly band featuring essential brother Riggz Miller on guitar. (Sorry about this being a Facebook page -- they need to get an actual website soon!)
  • Kartune - A fine cover band from my home area that's also done their own material and doesn't just play the same thirty songs as here-today, gone-tomorrow bar bands. I've known their frontman since high school.

Inspiration & Resources

  • Haruki Murakami - Probably my favorite author of all time. Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman, his second collection of short stories, was a mindblow when I read it and got me to write seriously again.
  • Stephen KingEven if you're not a big horror fan, his On Writing: A Mamoir of the Craft is a crucial read for any aspiring (or ongoing) writer.
  • Goodreads - Track your past reads and find your next. You can also follow my author profile there.
  • Neocities - The home of the new indie web.
  • W3Schools - Great place to learn HTML/CSS.
  • Phoenix Code - Free HTML editor for whatever OS you use.
  • SquidWTF - Audio downloader

Music & Art

  • yeule - My favorite current singer. Check out her entire discography.
  • BLACKPINK - Fair warning: I have been a "Blink" since their debut in 2016 and I stan Rosé and Lisa.
  • Henry Rollins - The true king of all media.
  • Glenn Gould - My favorite classical pianist. A genius. A provocateur. A legend.
  • Wendy Carlos - The great American synth pioneer. All ideas of the synthesizer not being a real instrument were obliterated the day she released Switched-On Bach in 1969. (She really needs to get her back catalog on streaming services so that everyone can hear her genius and she can get some extra dosh from it.)
  • Dischord Records - One of America's greatest pink/indie labels. Home of Fugazi and Minor Threat.
  • Alternative Tentacles Records - The most eclectic "punk" label ever.
  • Bandcamp Daily
  • Discogs - best place to find new and used records, tapes and CDs.
  • NEPA Scene - news and pop culture for Northeastern Pennsylania.
