the incessant emails i'm getting from spotify about "being a part of wrapped" make it sound like they're worried and desperate lmao

he would honestly be so good as a really bleak side character in a painful to watch sitcom

btw people in Naarm the whole FAMILI collective is playing a show at northcote social club on the 27th of this month please come!!! the shows we did in july were very special tickets.melbournetickets.com.au/outlet/event...

recently finished WD2 (it's goated) and started on Cyberpunk 2077 and my first impressions are unfortunately that it's a pale imitation of the former... trying to do similar things gameplay-wise but so clunky and lifeless in comparison. WD2 is just inherently so fun and intuitive moment to moment

having writing credits with one of the biggest rock bands in the world vs being unable to receive my royalties because nowhere in SA accepts foreign cheques </3 Adelaide artist moment

it's cool how the returning gigs i've gotten this year have paid like 20-40% less than when i did them 4-5 years ago but everything costs 20-40% more

i'm thinking of making a winamp/myspace style player for my website where you can listen to a low bitrate mp3 version of my album

my first directorial credit! FAMILI: BLOODFIRE directed by myself & Bella Waru a journey through FAMILI's forthcoming EP, BLOODFIRE, "woven from Oceania's past, present & future". featuring music produced by myself, Lakatoi & Geryon. www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpFI...

why do i still feel like my life is about to end when i have a performance coming up lol

thought i'd post my little blender doppler effect experiment because last year it went viral on twitter among a demographic who i imagine have moved here lol each speaker is playing the same C tone, pitched only by movement relative to the camera #b3d

i got bumble bff because my social life is dire and it could only find 3 people within 160km of me between the ages of 25-80 ❤️

1. the time deity 2-3. my early sketches + inspos 4. redesign by Solomon Enos 🙏

i followed this linguist guy called languagejones on twitter and yt for years and he never had much of a following, then i unfollowed like last year because it became obvious he's a zionist. just checked and he has 200k subs now lol. okay

this 1845 tongan dictionary (compiled by an english missionary) has a word for when the whole neighbourhood is fist-fighting 😭 what did this guy see

posting for posterity this image i made a few years ago of how i see the apple when i imagine an apple

Author and filmmaker Justine Bateman on generative AI

i've been playing Watch Dogs 2 for the first time and aside from being very fun it's wild how prescient it was 10 years ago. it's basically about the silicon valley big tech companies being a cartel that's deeply embedded in politics and creates high tech weapons for the police & military

The visual world of Crown of My Spirit 'The Temple' some references + notes

violent extremists of the tylenol community you are seen, heard and loved

the concept of Chappell Roan being in Goodwood

a perusal of the right-wing side of twitter makes it clear that there is a huge american neo-nazi/white nationalist movement just waiting for state sanction to commit a mass pogrom against Black & brown people, trans people and leftists. that country is a few more escalations away from a civil war

are the SA Socialists just SAlt rebranded...?

uber signing me up to uber one and charging me without my consent (haven't used the app in months) is insane work

sometimes i feel like i'm the only queer gamer who doesn't care for toon/pixel art style platformers

this lastfmstats chart of all my listening over all time is indirectly an amazing record of my 10+ years of inability to maintain a normal sleep schedule (see how it always slides later and later 😭)

i've spent all weekend going way too deep on a mapmaking hobby project but my brain needed this... currently downloading a 1.2 GB pdf about ancient Tahiti

Covered @lonelyspeck.bsky.social’s debut LP: www.indailysa.com.au/inreview/mus...

pro-israel media has just spent the past 2 years laying the groundwork for the mainstreaming of white nationalism and white genocide conspiracy theories. stuff like march of australia is the intended result

the anti-anti-immigration rhetoric in this country is extremely unserious. we're up against a rising populist white nationalist movement. they are not hypocrites who will be defeated by cute gotchas, they are ideological supremacists with a tangible platform and tacit mainstream media support

my pfp is the solar analemma as viewed from kaurna land btw

i always thought it was nostalgia but now i actually think (western) pop culture and media legitimately peaked between around 1990-2010 because it was the peak of unchallenged western hegemony so the culture industries had unlimited money and no red scare/hays code style restrictions

i love john cage enough to know that he had a deep appreciation for the sound of cars honking

CROWN OF MY SPIRIT lyrics 1. Estuary 2. The Way It Is

went for an 18km seaside walk today 🚶

my ig post flopping suspiciously hard after i shared that daniel kwan quote about how the creative industries need to go to war against the AI industry 😔

i brought my logo to life 😈 #b3d

2 new songs Tether Drawing Flesh From Stone (feat. BAYANG (tha Bushranger)) listen: ffm.to/tether_drawi... artwork by me 🫀

like 13 years ago i had a scifi story idea so i decided to learn about society and geopolitics so i could build a convincing future world -> it turned me into a dialectical materialism head and i'm still working on it to this day and the future timeline i've made keeps being worryingly accurate

experimenting with improving my discover feed by blocking every account i see with any of the following in bio: - "democrat" - "vote blue", "blue loving" etc - "resist" - "woke AF" - unironic american flag - ukraine flag in combo with any of the above

been doing a lot more reading into the history of early euro contact w the pacific for a personal project and obv knew it's cooked but i still cant believe how many times i've read something like "relations began well but then they killed 200 islanders" like actual wtf was wrong with those psychos

wow this is the first time i've heard her speaking voice and she legit has that old school aussie accent and cadence. gotta admit i had kinda lumped them in with those private school fake bogan pub rock bands but just from that accent i can tell she's the real deal lol you can't fake that

2 new songs Amulet ∞ Fossil out now: ffm.to/amulet_fossil #music

was talking about my requirements in a new place when i next move and was like "i need my room to have a proper window and room for an actual chair 💯✔️✔️" literally sound like i live in prison 😭

i think agreeing with someone's views isn't the same as sharing their politics. i feel like this is a very online-brained idea. the relevance of opinions is hugely overinflated online. i think you don't really share someone's politics unless you live the same struggle as them. the rest is just talk

also out last week daine - i want the light to swallow me whole i co-prod & co-wrote 1. when my wings are cut off 3. fell out of heaven 4. i want the light to swallow me whole with daine, darcy baylis & lucy blomkamp a beautiful EP go listen 🪽🪽

for several years now i've been working with this Pasifika x First Nations collective called FAMILI. it's changed the way i think about artistic collaboration honestly our debut single 'Firekeeper' is out today by Lakatoi, Porobibi, Waru, Dani Sib, Geryon & me famili.net.au

i genuinely love starting on a hobby project idea and immediately discovering it will likely take years of work and my most powerful hyperfixations to achieve... on one hand it's like why am i like this but on the other hand hell yeah this is going to be awesome
