I say this as a superfan: Van Halen has given Billie Eilish no reason to know who they are. They've done very little during her lifetime. Don't complain about other people's musical experience being different. Instead, share -- give people a reason to love what you love. 🎧

ProTip: Anytime you get new gear that has an AC adapter of any kind on it, grab a silver Sharpie and write the device on that power brick or wall wart. It will save you tons of hassle down the road.

Rory Guy wrote liner notes for Capitol Records for 30 years. He won a Grammy for his work. He was also an actor. He worked under the stage name Angus Scrimm. Today I learned The Tall Man from Phantasm wrote the liner notes to Meet the Beatles. I am not making this up.

When I left my contract gig at Activision, I was handed a copy of an NDA that will never expire. Then I got it via e-mail. I was then mailed a third copy at home to be sure I knew I was never to speak about my time at Activision. I hope the #ActiBlizzWalkout creates change.

If you have misinterpreted the #Kapernick thing to be about flags/troops instead of its stated purpose of racial equality/justice, I have a suggestion. Instead of destroying your #Nike clothing, donate it to a homeless vet. Tweets that follow offers ways you can do that.
