BEAR is here! Get involved.

Bring lots of snares.

Our new album is out! Thanks to everyone for listening and buying a copy. We appreciate you immensely.

Listening party tonight 10.8! Record is here on Friday the 10th! See y’all soooon.

the thing about social media is that like a lot of successful technological developments it sort of disseminates its own myth -- these myths are I think always (avoid saying "always" without numbers to back it up tho) progress fables rich with notions of inevitability

Legitimately looks like the same guy.

Movies are generally fucking terrible right now and even when they’re good they’re mostly produced the same with no discernible visual stamp or style and I see less and less that truly sticks with me anymore.

Stay for the end

I think Bluesky CEO was supposed to be a little resume plumping detour but then users flooded in from Twitter and Boss Lady was briefly seduced by the idea of being a Riot Grrrl Anti-Caesar… until actual decisions had to be made. Then she began to resent the users for ruining her cosplay

Guess the thing to fully ingest and acknowledge going forward - it is not possible to ethically run a company in the tech industry, at least in this current environment. It may never be. The tech world is a total wash. At least everything is tied up in it completely. No idea what’s next.

as a girl with a PhD in natural language processing and machine learning it's actually offensive to me when you say "we don't know how LLMs work so they might be conscious" I didn't spend 10 years in mines of academia to be told ignorance is morally equal knowledge. We know exactly how LLMs work.

Last Bandcamp Friday before our new record BEAR comes out 10.10! Pick up a bundle or any physical item before end of day tomorrow and you’re entered to win a signed test pressing! Winner will be announced on our Bandcamp listening party, 10/8 at 8PM! friendshipcommanders.bandcamp.com/album/bear

I can't use the words I want to say because they are not appropriate, but the woman who wrote this appears to say that female actors shouldn't criticize AI when they spend so much time and money on plastic surgery

For, like, a month I've been looking around for some kind soul to bring the FAFO energy to this government shutdown, and in @ddayen.bsky.social I found my guy slate.com/podcasts/wha...

Excited to introduce Vibes from Meta. Eat your slop, piggies!

This actually isn’t as bad as I thought it would be while it’s kinda worse in some areas.

The only comedian participating in Riyadh that’s an actual surprise to me is Hannibal and it’s a real bummer. Don’t know how anyone ever got conned into thinking Burr had any real values or even his own ideas culturally and socially.

Okay. Let me try this another way, and see if that works. I was a boy with relatives in Greece during the time of the Colonels, a pretty scary military junta. Some would say it was fascist: Militarism, anti-communism, nostalgia, etc. But no. /1

I'm here you fuckaas bitch

wow! 100 likes! thank you so much

Honestly, Zaslav sucks but he greenlit and gave One Battle After Another a 175 mil budget and spent a ton promoting it in THIS political climate and is reportedly extremely proud of it so all is forgiven. Truly. I mean that.

This is a horrendously irresponsible headline.

Okay we're there.

Had a great time talking to these two awesome dudes about our new record BEAR! Give it a listen and support this awesome podcast.

Bluesky is wild man...

last night as i was trying to wind down for bed i had a unified theory of what the fuck just happened, and i wrote it down, and filed it under "well, i can't talk about this on main without sounding insane until and unless the perp gets caught and is provably a groyper" anyways, great news! (1/X)

Amazing headline.

this is a good throwaway joke, but I wonder if it didn't hit on something because a lot of male friendship groups were *mind-bogglingly* sexist and predatory towards women the excuse for groups of young men like that was that they'd grow out of it, through the civilizing influence of women. no.

So yeah Highest 2 Lowest rules.

Pretty uncool how dust just accumulates on all your stuff even if you didn't do anything wrong.

Well. Uh

this is giuliani’s 9/11

In this Indiana diner, everyone has three questions: How’s the breaded tenderloin? Is the quarry hiring? And when Trump and RFK are talking about all these medical cuts… they don’t mean insulin and oxy, right?

My first concert at age 7 was Fugazi.

MIDHEAVEN video premiere in Metal Injection today! This song is one of the heaviest tracks we’ve ever recorded. It looks to the stars for answers and then back down at us here on earth. Dual-single X/MIDHEAVEN is out now, from our forthcoming album BEAR out 10.10.25! Enjoy! youtu.be/Zn_BIewKgnY?...

Been playing the new singles from @fcommanders.bsky.social constantly this week. Off of their October LP, Bear 🐻 on Magnetic Eye Records. DO NOT SKIP THESE SONGS! If you’re not familiar with the duo of @buickaudra.bsky.social and @jerryroe.bsky.social , fix that. Their whole discography is🔥

Man that took AWHILE

A woman who was 20 weeks pregnant fed her toddler son raw milk. He contracted Campylobacter and then passed the infection to her; she progressed to sepsis, and had a miscarriage. She is suing the business that sells the raw milk, saying she didn’t know the risk. Don’t feed your kids raw milk.

So stoked this song is out. My favorite track from our new record.

Maybe my favorite song off our new record. Can’t wait for you to hear it!
