holy shit i realized this just last week too. something in the water

i wish blue sky was only lockwood and the disc horse bot. it would be redundant, but spectacular

today seems like the day to finally get somebody to buy my full DVD set of Mary Hartman ... OR ... the day to get it professionally graded like a Pokemon card

oh man i totally remember summoning FSDD as a young child. 0/10 could not recommend a ritual LESS

there was a time when this would have been charming; that time has passed. they should do one with a Carnival Cruises ship rating all of its favorite European deep port destinations

the teddy bear show, "Ted," is spelled in lowercase too? jesus christ this thing is OBSESSED with dealbreakers

i would like to meet even a single one of the consumers clamoring for a sequel to The Social Network

this stuff is crazy. there is also a Russian (maybe eastern european?) rapper named JOKER and some poor pop woman named SLOAN and i get served all of them.

a true prisoner's dilemma: is it more embarrassing to not be able to stop liking R Kelly's songs, or Ariel Pink's? tbh i think there was only one Ariel song i ever liked and i can't even remember which one it was. it does feel like R is the worse choice but choice is not the determinant here

so many disgusting (imo) false salads out there, but we're missing a few obvious ones: - cheese - milk - oatmeal - food

sorry yall(up) but you cannot do a survey about "american pride" from june 1 - 15 and expect representative results. people are very bad at holding multiple things in their heads at the same time. happy pride news.gallup.com/poll/711938/...

wow i am superbummed that Adobe acquired Topaz :( end of an era

wow it's crazy how the value of doing things this ridiculous in real life has plummetted. this could be a real yacht for all i know, the effect is just hyperslop either way

fantano certainly revolutionized the Music Critic As Celebrity racket. i honestly can't even imagine anyone buying/not buying a record based on one of his reviews, he just talks about what he personally likes? that's not critcism, that's having a video blog. good job

one thing i would like to say is: i understand that some keyboard switches are silent, etc. ... but what the heck are you talking about "this keyboard sounds better than that other one?" stop listening to your keyboards? do you compare the sounds that coffee grinders make? no you do not

just build out some equine robots to drag the central park carriages. finally, a use for all of this progress + compute that only a real-horse-hating asshole could find fault with

i'm guilty of enjoying the Joe Budden Podcast for a very long time, but had drifted away (it's a podcast, for one thing) but somehow the addition of Marc Lamont Hill has made it instantly watchable again. i click on the YT videos. i had never heard of him before, what a cool guy

i guess it's time to spin up Homo Sacer Omnibus again. cannot recommend this gigantic, inscrutable magnum opus enough. if you want to read it at all, you will not be disappointed, this i can guarantee you

ohhhh yeah. now THAT'S what i call social

crazy that this worked www.frontiersin.org/journals/neu... 5 grams is a pretty heroic dose imo

Sometimes, all I think about is you Late nights in the middle of June Heat waves been pissin me auf

andy byford is like if they made a manager-class worker robot trained on the husk of jon ronson

short form artificial sports video microgambling with rewards

i seriously had no idea what an economy this terrible, terrible software had spawned. what a world! wpvip.com/enterprise-w... i have done a lot of what i consider research and i still can't figure out how it happened. who would use wordpress as infra for a website? Idiocracy-grade reality

i want to know alex karp's answer when his friends ask him "why don't you just try the bald look buddy" it must be so good. super specific and self-congratulatory and just really furious at them

holy cow, Slant 6 broke up in 1995?? i guess THAT is probably the "coolest show i went to" then

hot girl dinner summer to go

just hit me like a ton of bricks. we gotta get a movie where Matthew Rhys plays Dario

oh hell yes Polyphia is back. this song could be by Baauer (complimentary) youtu.be/QB15JltRf-M?...

i guess it's time for me to finally watch NP2: The Klumps. does the MOVIE end with 7+ minutes of LL Cool J freestyling? it must be longer than that actually, since this is merely a sneak preview. music.youtube.com/watch?v=gxq0...

i don't have any alternatives, but i gotta say, the "ipad sketchbook art that is intentionally disgusting but (or and thus?) clearly not ay-eye" aesthetic does not work for me at all. i want things to look good even if they are real

my model conscious, my not just x also y, my fable 5

still a very good song but i don't really think A SINGLE RAPPER tried to "make the Blueprint 2 before Hov" music.youtube.com/watch?v=9tki...

art is a spirit. it's a vibe. the vibe takes over

one great thing about Spectrum NY1 News: absolutely no advertising for people born after 1985 or so. one commercial for "Oak Street Health" just said they specialize in treating "older Americans like you [me]"

this IS a nice touch. unclear how it works (i guess buyers have to download the MP3s and figure out their own player? Bandcamp player on Android is the main reason i love Bandcamp TBH, lossless fidelity out the yang) but JOIN US on the #2 home for human slop on the web™ (i only put Ponyoak up 🤷🏼‍♀️)

if anybody wants to try my personal cultural inventory thing, please do and i'd love to see your choices: 0g.software/nine-fours [crazy that Homo Sacer (Agamben opus) does not have its own wikipedia page, i will have to compromise from cat 1 but will post when i finally do it]

for some reason i still think the artificial name "crabby rathbun" is extremely funny

may i say, i know vince staples is always trying to maximize his soundscan haul etc. instead of JUST RAPPING ALREADY, but this most recent heel turn is so so bad, i cannot imagine anyone wanting this alt rock and i MAKE alt rock*. i guess we've all been super upset since SOPHIE died :(

gotta be either nietzsche (needs escape from the eternal pain) or wittgenstein (good at systems)

i mean, download open weights and never update them. if that's not enough for you, you can abliterate them. plenty of good questions in this department but this is not one of them, unfortunately :(

do you all have to see the Prenuvo commercials with the ersatz justin long type guy and Sick Care, your legacy health care provider, which is a schlub covered in loose paperwork a la Harry Tuttle near the end of Brazil? anyway, i think Sick Care is the cooler guy in that commercial.

what a world. they finally figured out how to print an ENTIRE book www.voxelmatters.com/fully-3d-pri...

my first thought was "that's not enough likes." my *second* thought was "did they JUST launch it?!"

there are so many cons, but one pro of my music being confrontationally obscure and uncomfortable for 99.99999% of people to hear is that i will never have to worry about unauthorized usage by the White House. a minor blessing

i honestly still do not understand how anyone could be scared of the backrooms stuff. weirdest part is i think they always look really cool and fun. maybe *i'm* the bad guy?

it seems like a ridiculous thing to say, for someone of my expertise -- but i did not realize until TONIGHT how hilarious John Flansburgh of They Might Be Giants is. yeah, i know! who did i think was coming up with all the funny stuff he sings. (both of them are funny, obviously.)

it's unusual how the dynamic between Vordul Mega and Vast Aire is kind of similar to Conway and Westside Gunn

perhaps the most B Cs of A

i'm pretty sure it's literally impossible for people to discover, much less read, my bearblog posts without a bit of light investigative sleuthing, but i STILL feel like fewer people read my average bluesky post vs. a bearblog post
