2025 was a rough year, but we're so grateful to everyone who gave our album The World some attention. And hey, we just learned today that it charted in the UK. Take that, oblivion! The World is yours at seeming.bandcamp.com/album/the-wo...

57. My go-to song to exhale and breathe in the best way possible through nearly all of 2025, and a genuinely heartfelt album closer too. From @256pi.bsky.social , 'Anything Not Saved Will Be Lost'! www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwTX...

Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up. I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

To the influx of artists and people about to join in from another stupid move by shitty bird app, actually use this place. Genuinely, if you just make an account and leave, then there's no point. Try to post here whenever you can.

heads up that bluesky doesnt show posts from other languages by default on your timeline, and its cutting you off from a lot of the community go to bsky.app/settings/lan... and deselect any language from this setting, or else you might not see any of the new japanese users at all!

IT IS TIME. Today is the only day you can legally share this. Happy Almost Christmas

When I was in high school we made 69 jokes but the economy is so bad kids these days can only joke about 67

GODDAMMIT I HAVE A YEAR-END LIST AND A SSIM ROUNDUP TO FINISH, WHY NOW

note to everyone else they're trying to intimidate: telling the administration to fuck off remains the single most effective response

while KOSA passed the subcommittee, there is still the full committee meeting it needs to go through before being voted on by the Senate/House support is more split on it than you'd think, we just need to pull away enough votes to block it. CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES! www.badinternetbills.com

In the UK I can’t even read DMs unless I give them my passport and a video of my face. This happened almost overnight! Don’t take this for granted, America!

Tomorrow the 11th, there will be a markup on various "child safety" bills This is part of the process where they are debated and amended before moving forward It is a good idea to make some rep calls TODAY and make it clear which bills are currently unacceptable and why

KOSA is never about protecting kids. It’s anti-queer and about making sure kids don’t have access to information they need to survive - from health basics to knowing they are not alone and not broken. And it will destroy the internet as we know it.

oh yeah, and since it's Bandcamp Friday I also have a new Patreon text post about a plunderphonic ambient artist who combined a lot of influences from dub and vaporwave among other things to create a pretty immersive experience, full thoughts here: www.patreon.com/posts/145162...

Commentary on The Making of "Real Life and Postcard Use" by 256 Pi youtu.be/8bVzK2eYSjo

Happy #BandcampFriday ! If you'd like to help support me and other artists today would be the best day to do so. Check out my weird trappy psychedelic album: kyuubi.bandcamp.com/album/kyuubi...

Hey it's *Bandcamp Friday* again. The best day to go find that artist who was top of your Spotify unwrapped and actually buy their music, because all the proceeds go to them today. And by god do musicians need it.

so, remember how I used to do commentary videos talking about the making of each of my old albums? ...no? well I just finally got around to doing one of those for my most recent album also I ended up going way too irresponsibly long with it and the video's nearly an hour and a half. stay tuned

#SaveSpeech The House Committee Meeting was heavily in favor of these various censorship/surveillance bills We need now, more than ever, to counter the rhetoric that these bills are "popular" and demand our reps oppose them! www.congress.gov/members/find...

It’s always a good time to remember that Spotify is a fundamentally evil corporation that profits off artists work without compensating them, runs ad campaigns for ICE, and the person in charge funds military AI tech Its supervillain-level writing and people out here doing “wrapped” promo for them

can't say i'm the biggest fan of ppl going full ass out being suggested that they should maybe stop using spotify. like i get convenience but i sure as hell don't get preferring convenience over literally just not supporting one of the genuinely most evil fucking companies in multimedia

We're happy to announce that Bandcamp Fridays will be returning in 2026. Check out the full list of dates below and get your wishlists ready for the final #bandcampfriday of 2025 this Friday, December 5th.

With SCREEN Act and KOSA on the legislative block this week, there couldn't be a better time for Fight's "Stop Online ID Checks" Week of Action. Today's action: Share and sign the petition. Find out more here: www.stoponlineidchecks.org

Please keep putting pressure on PayPal. Stories like this are becoming more and more common. Artists don’t deserve to lose their source of income over payment processors being puritanical/anti-small business.

It would be extremely cool if a bunch of people called payment processors over Black Friday weekend to ask why they're telling people what they can and can't buy with their own money. This holiday season, give the gift of calling payment processors over Black Friday weekend

This is a really vulnerable time for paypro call centers. It's already been reported that Mastercard is stressed by our persistence I know we're all busy around this time too but let's fire the engines 🔥

My new favorite kind of meme is "here are detailed instructions on how to turn off AI". 🔨

I'm watching an adult creator get systematically cut off from every income stream by payment processors and now debankment could be on the table. She makes legal content. They are trying to shut her up and hope that we'll shut up too. We must get louder. Call Visa and MC. Tell them this will stop.

PORN IS ART, PORN IS GOOD, PEOPLE MAKING PORN IS A SIGN OF A HEALTHY SOCIETY

This is why yall need to continue to contact your representatives about paypros, this is banking discrimination

EU folks need to call your reps TODAY. NOW.

Clark - Steep Stims (Album Review) youtu.be/OPJ_mIbBB04

wow that is one very uninteresting list of grammy nominations, really don't have a horse in this race I guess both of my votes would go to Skrillex? but grammys don't like awarding producers over singers so I'm expecting the awards go to Tame Impala and PinkPantheress (latter album's good at least)
