i still think cars are a net evil but i will admit now that i live in view of a road with lots of cars on it that my beautiful small cat named email loves watching traffic. so thank you cars for providing that service for her
sent a close music-friend of mine the longest monolith of a track from my next album and they replied with the kind of praise only a true friend would give
yet again, a fantastic night for my community (sensitive bearded brown fellas)
promoting urself is a humiliation ritual basically
i use RYM because i can find a review like this and know instantly that i'm going to fucking love whatever album this is
trying to get an absentee ballot sent to canada for voting in the texas midterms, feeling for the nth time like charlie brown running towards lucy, convinced this time my foot will meet the football
used to think 20th century serialism (babbitt, 12-tone, etc) was pointless academic wankery in conversation only with itself. now i think it's interesting academic wankery that is rich with ideas you can steal from. ( i still think ferneyhough / "new complexity" is a waste of time though )
Hot takes are annoying, tell me a strong opinion you had about music at some point in your life that changed
vivid memory. TES: Oblivion, on console, some puzzle in a cave we couldn't figure out. I suggested: aren't you a vampire and don't vampires get faster and more athletic over time? so we waited for like a week and were then able to jump around the gate that the puzzle unlocked. hooted and hollered
Also this has got me curiois, I really want to hear the first time people “cheesed” a game, or most memorable since the former might be hard to remember
i think ed zitron is basically right about most things but unfortunately i find him very very irritating to listen to or to read. c.f. cory doctorow being basically right about platform decay but calling it "enshittification" for some reason. it's like that
the concept of using twitch streams to train AI is really funny. what are you going to gain from this. footage of video games accompanied by really loud donation sound effects and a tiny webcam. what is the model going to learn
"reality awaits" is one of those rare bad albums that's bad for interesting, ego-driven reasons. the fact that they called this "experimental" is so fascinating. do the strokes think that bongos are experimental. they really, really believed in this and thought they were taking a big swing
okay here's my announcement. my next album is called "Training Musisic" It's called that because this is the first time im writing musisic and i'm still getting the hang of it ^_^ and it is about the psychic harm of Getting Ready ^_^ small little album six tracks nothing crazy
what’s currently happening with copyright/ip has to be the clearest and most enraging demonstration of the binds/protects dichotomy there’s ever been
in my new pretty large apartment building im pretty sure i've heard at least nine different languages being spoken in the hallways and elevators. i love da big city. la grande ville
ai haters: why are you using ai ai boosters: why are you insulting ai people who actually know ball: all code is horrible, none should ever be made in any way
on an errand to buy a sewing machine for my boyfriend. he asked me for a sewing machine that is on sale and he showed me the listing so I can find it when I get to Canadian Tire. I was worried it would be heavy but apparently they're pretty lightweight nowadays
it's honestly very chic of Montreal to be on an island called "l'île de Montréal." gives us a kind of cachet that no other city in Canada could ever approach
I lovvvvve the view from my apartment it's not a traditional "good view" but it looks at so many things it's like an I spy book. unfortunately if I discuss exactly what I can see it would be trivial to dox me. so I will just say I can see a lot of public infrastructure and terrain features
corollary to "never believe any thoughts you have about your own life past 9 pm": never believe any thoughts you have when you're in the middle of moving apartments. every 2 hours of the last few days I've thought "mm, maybe I hate all my friends and they hate me." No. That is the moving disease
new strokes album, among other things, has the worst-produced hi hats ive ever heard. sounds like something death grips circa 2014 would do to be deliberately difficult to listen to
ended up on a record label associated with a few relatively big names in edm at the age of 18 but was then immediately dropped for not making dubstep, which was the only thing that was selling at the time. the label then died a few years later
Okay, my QUESTION OF THE DAY is… What is your weirdest actual accomplishment? Not the biggest necessarily…but the weirdest?
