Tonight! Help me celebrate 4 years of DJing!
Tomorrow it will be 4 years that I've been DJing on Twitch! To celebrate, I'll be re-playing my very first set, as has become tradition. That was around 2 hours, so another hour of usual nonsense afterwards. Tune in, 8pm Eastern at twitch.tv/doorsinthela...

There are two main reasons I don't use AI video generation. One, it's crap. Also, I am very invested in art, not content, or product, so fuck that. Two: I work in noir, dark, and other themes. "Give me a 30 second video suggesting a man gets garotted" results in "We have banned you for "safety""
The reason for this is that "600mi" means "300mi in normal conditions" because 600mi is at 20mph, nobody in the car, driving on a flat road with no aircon, etc. I have an EV motorcycle with "111mi range" which goes to 55 at highway speed, with hills, a cold morning, etc.
Saw a post that was basically like "an EV needs to have over 600 miles range" because it implied stopping to charge at all wasn't an option. On normal highways, not in Alaska. If you don't get out of your car for 8 hours at a time you need medical attention and a divorce.

VOTE! To change things! Except that the corporate Dems don't want change. VOTE! Even though any change they would try, even if they wanted to, would be blocked by SCOTUS. VOTE VOTE VOTE! For harm reduction! Even though we've given Trump the votes for ICE, etc. Point that out? "Cool story, Putinbot"
The next time a climate change denier comes at you with that excuse:

Tonight at 8pm eastern, join me at www.twitch.tv/doorsinthela... for some music that I love, and hopefully you will like too! Picked up some great stuff and continuing to ask myself "is this the year I finally get into Hawkwind?"
Tomorrow! Bandcamp friday is coming up and I've got a new exclusive song out! So I figure I'll play some of the older ones (and the archive will be opening back up on 8/7!) But it won't be just my music, because I got a new stack of used cds, so lots of stuff I want to play! Tune in!
But remember, if you want livable wages, reasonable prices, and universal healthcare it's because you're a FLAMING HUGE RACIST not because you want a better country for all Americans, not just the rich.

Gotta love threads. "Guess I'll have the Irn Bru and heroin" as a Trainspotting joke was removed -"counselling to take illegal substances" I swear to fuck they need to start hiring people to read things. Hey, weird how they're not this trigger happy when it's homophobic or Nazi death threats.

When that gets reduced to one per sector, make them public. Sure there's only one cereal company, but it makes 10, not 1500, brands of cereal, and none of them contain carcinogens.
In 75% of US industries, fewer corporations control more of the business than 20 years ago. That's especially true in the food industry. Just four corporations control 54% of the fresh-cut salad industry, including Taylor Fresh Foods. We're seeing in real time the danger of monopolization.
Ah yes, now RealClearPolitics is saying that anyone who wants healthcare and a living wage is some kind of Pol Pot worshipping Marxist who wants political murder. I truly can't with these people.
