I've been told repeatedly that Maduro is an evil dictator. Mostly by people I know to be full of shit.

Good riddance

I felt like I needed some sleazy after midnight drive-in horror movie death doom to cheer me up. It's working. #metalsky druidlord.bandcamp.com/album/relics...

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

Here's my assorted year end list In no particular order. It's just shit I really liked. Last row is EPs. Yes, Strychnos is a cheat as they both were released on the same day, but they are really fucking good. #metalsky

aka the Cool List

remember, folks,

This is now my default pull request comment.

We said the same during the Iraq war and then they just rewrote history and everyone gave them a pass

The thing is… old white men love to talk about themselves You don’t have to sleep with them

I can't even pretend to work.

I'd boycott Starbucks if I could, but their coffee tastes like shit.

On this one, they add melodic arena rock solos and song fade outs to the mindfuck. It's catchy, insidious, and probably hazardous to your mental and spiritual well being. #metalsky veilburnerband.bandcamp.com/album/longin...

Plausible deniability

This is getting some respectable hype. Funeral Doom with inevitable comparisons to Bell Witch and Mournful Congregation, but Oromet has more dirt in the mix that I find much more engaging. Lush beauty in dingy squalor. #metalsky oromet.bandcamp.com/album/the-si...

Unexploded ordinance. With pickles.

The hagiography engines are all primed and ready to go.

Just wanted to confirm what everyone else is saying. This is fantastic death doom. I like bands that use the HM-2 to do something other than another Left Hand Path or Like an Everflowing Stream retread. Highly recommended. #metalsky caligarirecords.bandcamp.com/album/embalm...

Very atmospheric. The debut was a bit doomier and more dissonant. Still as trippy, nightmarish, and labyrinthian. Probably a good listen for you THC enthusiasts. #metalsky #deathmetal dwellingbelow.bandcamp.com/album/wearis...

“By integrating AI into music composition and video design, the project achieves…” …a place in the dumpster. …the total abandonment of any artistic integrity. …absolutely nothing worthwhile. …our collective scorn and derision.

my favorite ICE abduction videos are when the federal agent takes a stumble and tears a crucial ligament in their legs its so funny to see them writhe in pain on the ground and then struggle to get up

When we connect household items to the internet, we prepend the word smart to them. It's a neat little mental trick we play on ourselves to keep us from realizing how fucking stupid we are connecting household items to the goddamn Internet.

New Demilich song. A Suppurize De-livering by the Putrefactory. I desperately want this to be a sign of a new album, but the title smacks of Antti Boman's gloriously wierd word play humor and he's yanking our chain. #metalsky youtu.be/W09uS9AjAdQ?...

Death/doom band #DwellingBelow unearth a new song! Despite buried in endless layers of filth, they manage to incorporate an emotive lead or two! Check it out! ► "lead listeners through a nightmarish and often bizarre labyrinth" - No Clean Singing Music - dwellingbelow.bandcamp.com

We are thrilled to announce that our NEW Large Language Model will be released on 11.18.25.

Just got my COVID shot. Fuck you, Wormbrain.

Antifa. Basically any one who thinks Charlie Kirk was not all that.

My first academic article was on the dictatorship of Uzbekistan inventing a group called "Akromiya" that did not really exist but which they used to arrest anyone with whom they disagreed under the pretext of "terrorism". Just bringing this up for no reason whatsoever!

Ooooooh. A new Veilburner.

Six weeks of recovery from a ruptured ear infection (being immunocompromised sucks) and my hearing is mostly back. Let's put it through its paces with one of my favorite underground bands that needs way more exposure. #metalsky grotesqueries.bandcamp.com/album/vile-c...

These are right-wing terror events I covered just from 2017 to 2023. It's not even close to comprehensive. The government's trying to erase this history.

"Dobson's case is illustrative of how speaking ill of the dead can be an important and powerful form of truth-telling." Swap in "Kirk" for "Dobson" and the same applies. Both men used their powerful reach and massive platforms to spread hatred and fuel violence toward marginalized people

Today is a good day to turn off the news and listen to some wholesome, soul uplifting, life affirming death metal. #deathmetal #metalsky bloodharvestrecords.bandcamp.com/album/celebr...

One day after the Supreme Court lifted the ban on racial profiling, federal agents swarmed a car in Van Nuys. Four masked agents with guns drawn yanked people out, slammed them to the ground, and pointed a weapon at a pregnant woman. There is no justification for this. None.

It's really hard to focus on kitchen table issues when you cannot get home to your kitchen table because you've been yanked out of your car at gunpoint.

I preordered a couple tshirts a month ago, but now that the US is cut off from the civilized world, I don't expect to ever see them. Is there even a point to trying to order anything overseas? #metalsky

Can the Onion sue for copyright infringement?

In the "where the hell did this thing come from" category of new releases is this debut. Nile + Olkoth + Derek Fucking Roddy #deathmetal everlastingspew.bandcamp.com/album/revela...

Rather than spit out yet another Entombed/Dismember clone, these guys use the HM-2 a bit differently. It sounds darker and thicker than the old Sunlight Studios buzzsaw. #metalsky #deathmetal ashendeath.bandcamp.com/album/leave-...

Damn. RIP.

His legacy is the immeasurable physical and mental abuse of thousands of children. An utterly worthless piece of shit whose harm will sadly go on long after his death. apnews.com/article/jame...

It's Bandcamp Friday. Which means I'm looking for dungeon synth. Here's a new release from a side project of the Örnatorpet artist. #dungeonsynth skymningsvavd.bandcamp.com/album/bakom-...

My biggest fear when visiting a big city I've never been to is that I have not found the secret best coffee/pizza/sandwich shop in town.

And one final thought: Ozzy going out after giving an emotional final performance that raised a ton of money for charity is more spiritually uplifting and did more genuine good than anything any televangelist and religious grifter who railed against him ever did combined.

Hopefully, he and Lemmy are driving Satan up the wall with all the racket they are making down there. RIP Ozzy.

From Poland. Debut album. FFO early Tomb Mold, Grave Miasma, Dead Congregation. #metalsky carbonizedrecords.bandcamp.com/album/chasm-...

Asking Nancy Pelosi's opinion on anything other than how to how to do insider trading is a distraction.
