Going to try out the Ableton Move. I feel like it might integrate better with my workflow than starting stuff on the OP-XY.

Went to the White Castle in Vegas today and discovered that sliders from an actual White Castle are virtually indistinguishable from the frozen ones, and I feel like it's less that the restaurant ones aren't good and more that the frozen ones are really good.

The numbers in here are hilarious. Do you use AI on the job? Execs: 87% Managers: 57% Workers: 27% Planned investment by 2030: $5T "Necessary" annual revenue to justify that spend: $650B Current annual revenue: $50B

I find what often ends up inspiring me to make music is finding an interesting instrument. I need to poke through the presets on the Carbon8 some more - one of its basses is where Carbonite came from (hence the name).

I'm getting extremely big "Descent original OPL-3 midi soundtrack" vibes.

I'm doin it, I'm makin it happen

Shuffled my music desk around so I could get my monitors back on the stands. I really could use a bigger screen, almost wondering if it would make sense to wall-mount a modestly-sized TV but that might get hard on the neck.

Disabled people deserve healthcare. Disabled people deserve housing. Disabled people deserve food. Disabled people deserve support. Our ability to work and produce for capitalism should not determine our value. Disability is not a moral failing. Most people will experience it someday.

This is the clip I was looking for btw. Happy Bisexual Bob Belcher day to all who celebrate

I think Graves finds my scent comforting, because any time I leave a piece of clothing anywhere he will without fail come and lay on it.

Introduce yourself with 5 concerts you’ve been to Steve Earle Nine Inch Nails Roger Waters Glass Animals Tom Petty

gAI art is bad because it's stealing labor. stealing labor from art is easy because no one sees art as labor, they see it as talent. they see it as talent because it's easier to believe they have a right to hate you because they can't stand they gave up and you didn't. fuck them, pay labor.

Decided to save some space and switch from the 49-key Hydrasynth to the desktop version, since the LinnStrument kinda obviates the need for the keys. If anyone local is looking for a 49-key just lemme know.

Woah! Ontario passed a law starting Jan 2026 that it is illegal for companies to ghost you. If you have interviewed for a job they are legally required to inform you if they hire someone else or close the position. The law also requires salary transparency on listings and disclosing use of AI

"there are no third spaces anymore" wrong. blast furnace

The notwithstanding clause is bullshit and it never should've existed in the first place. Human rights can't be subject to the whims of bad governments.

Moments ago, Premier Danielle Smith's government made a terrifying decision and introduced legislation to suspend the charter-protected rights of transgender young people in Alberta. Now is the time to act. Visit www.stop-smith.ca to sign our petition denouncing this draconian erosion of freedom.

Mastercard is bleeding, get in there. Make some calls. Get some cool family members in on it over thanksgiving

Got this fantastic piece of me and my bike at Tantalus Viewpoint north of Squamish, from my friend @leggy2fast.art!

I saw a place while I was downtown that called itself an "eat bar", which sounds like the kind of phrase I'd use if I couldn't remember the word "restaurant". "Should we meet at the... eat... bar?"

A great deal globally right now is people with control of fossil assets wanting them not to be stranded assets.

It seems to be in the same vein as "you better be good or else God will cast you into Hell" I try to be a good person because it's the right thing to do, and I don't need any fear of eternal punishment to do so.

Not to mention that fossil fuels seem to be starting on their way into the dustbin of history?

I can't believe we're even talking about more pipelines with half this country on fire every summer.

Ooooh, new Octopath Traveler game. I love that series.

💯 It isn’t really politeness if it’s borne of fear rather than coming from your heart

I've always found "an armed society is a polite society" to be a bit of a weird sentiment, I guess because I don't find the implied "be nice or I'll literally fucking murder you" to be all that polite.

Okay but are you... Team Spots or Team Stripes?

I think one of the saddest things about AI-generated images is that they make us suspicious about actual art drawn by people, too.

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back

tetsuya mizuguchi truly, earnestly believes, with his whole heart and whole mind, that generic vocal trance from 2003 has the power to awaken humanity's shared consciousness and guide us to universal peace. The strength of his conviction is so powerful that it might actually cause this to be true

Message to all faculty: your expertise is no longer trusted or valued at this so-called “university.”

Not sure I'll ever buy another Dyson vacuum. They work great when they work, but as soon as you have a problem you discover that they list but never actually stock replacement parts, presumably because they'd rather sell you a whole new vacuum than an already-overpriced replacement part.

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

Every office has an executive tier whose emails are like: saw on news , , can we replce complianc dept with web 3 and a worker tier whose emails are like: Dear Jim, First of all, I *love* this idea! Unfortunately, I spoke with Legal and identified a few issues with this approach. For starters…

the core features are us, the queers

Watching Joyce Carol Oates suplex Elon’s massive ego into a table and leaving him a hurt, babbling mess yelling about how much he reads filled my little heart with joy.

writing it "f*ck" sickens me. a coward's curse. say fuck or find a different word. get that nasty starfish asshole out of my sight

God save me from people who think their basic-bitch opinion is somehow necessary to a nuanced conversation.

One of the most memorable tweets I saw, back in the day said something like: "I feel sorry for Elon. He's so poor, all he has is money." Nothing I have seen since belies this take.

Relating to Spider-Man at 19: I too am underemployed, unsure how to pursue girls, and trying to find my place in the adult world. Relating to Galactus at 42: I am from an unrecognizable previous millennium, hungry all the time, everything hurts and I live with a tiny person who won’t do what I ask.

*gravelly voice* I waved the bartender over, ordered my drink of choice: GamerSupps lemonade and watermelon Bubly.

weird that i can count the number of countries whose opinion on american domestic municipal elections the united states gives a shit about on one finger
