New Glenn just went boom "but if you tax me then how am I going to create ecological disasters on Earth while practicing to create ecological disasters in Low Earth Orbit?"

Apropos of nothing, here's an old mix I made 'loosely based on the ideas of revolution and consciousness expansion'
A Rising Tide
a set loosely based on the ideas of revolution and consciousness expansion... straddles the line between acoustic and electronic, as well as frenetic and relaxed.

Thinking today about how we as a society let a band get away with calling themselves the Cherry Poppin' Daddies...
'A small grove massacred to the last ash, An oak with heart-rot, give away the show: This great society is going to smash; They cannot fool us with how fast they go, How much they cost each other and the gods. A culture is no better than its woods.' "Woods," by WH Auden
Emeka Egbuka is such an advanced prospect that he entered his sophomore slump halfway through his rookie season.
If y'all are shocked by the racism of the Young Republicans, I got some bad news for your ass about the older ones.
Charles Atlas - To The Dust: From Man You Came and To Man You Shall Return nice little album of early 2000s fragile ambient sounds... did a little deep dive, didn't realize Erik Kowalski (casino vesus japan) was an early member

fbi puts another one in the books. closing the case the way most crime is solved: someone calls and tells them who did it.
i'll take this brief moment to remind people that in an overwhelming tide of pop culture, Halt and Catch Fire still stands out as one of the best pieces of media to be created so far this century.
Chris Cantwell@ifyoucantwell.bsky.social · 12mo agoCan folks do me a favor? I was on Bluesky early & it was great. Mostly. I hit the eject button in January. I came back, many colleagues are here, but still don’t know I am. I co-created Halt and Catch Fire. I write TV & comics. Here’s two favorite set photos. Repost? I am in the wilderness.
"Twenty-three Democratic attorneys general now gather on near-daily Zoom calls at 8 AM Pacific, which means the East Coast officials are already on their third coffee. They divide responsibilities and share templates for lawsuits they’ve been drafting since last spring."
It’s Time for Americans to Start Talking About “Soft Secession”
Blue states are finally learning what red states have known all along: you don’t need federal permission to govern.

JAMES DOBSON, 89, died this week after a long battle with children. He was defined by an unshakable belief that godly parents, governments, and churches could eradicate unacceptable kinds of people with the tactical application of beatings and shame...

Parental Hot Take: "In The Night Kitchen" is an infinitely better book than "Where the Wild Things Are"
I love to show up every day for my job, which is standing around holding the front of my tactical vest and getting told to choke to death by thousands of passers-by while 11 of my coworkers handcuff a roofer on his way to work. Every night I drive 80 minutes home, thinking about nothing at all.
My final #SFB15 squad... and a glimpse at my likely flawed reasoning. TE: If I couldn't land McBride/Bowers/Kittle I wasn't reaching. Kittle was there in the 4th but give me the mystery box with Hunter. No breakout potential? Not interested -- Engram's got 90+ reception upside so I'll take the risk
This is a vital message: one of the larger reasons BlueSky is refreshingly free of alt-right shitlords is because in the early days we made a gentleperson’s agreement to starve these fuckos out and it worked. No likes, no quotes, no engagement. They got bored and left. Please keep the Old Ways.

This is still new, to my mind, so I'm still periodically going to try to bring it to your attention. Longer release windows now! ✊

in case you're wondering, "what's the harm in claiming an extinct species has been brought back from the dead" when it most certainly has not, our interior secretary is already using it to justify taking animals off the endangered species list

Full shot of this piece -- I'll add more below here as I get them edited. Crafted from solid air-dried Walnut with brass and curly maple inlay, and custom brass drawer pulls on dovetailed curly maple drawer boxes. Commissioned piece to be used as a bookcase/display case/room divider. #woodworking
starting an ongoing thread of the random tracks that are worming their way through my head at any given time... probably a lot of ambient electronica, folk, jazz, indie rock and random early 2000s stuff.
