The sluice gates open and water pours through the dam.
I was going to post this track here and talk about how much it has meant to me over the years. I was going to say how it’s my go-to track for when I’m feeling like some old school 90’s electronic. How I downloaded it from some unknown place, maybe a LAN party, maybe an […]
You wanna know the secret to success? Repetition. It’s no more complex than that. Music and rhetoric. Art and politics. You wanna steer a people? Repetition. We’re all fucking apes. We think we’re so smart, so evolved… go fuck yourself. We’re animals, feeding off of the umbilical residue of generations before us… In the end, […]
I know I’ve written about Mudvayne before, and the song “Nothing to Gain” (from L.D. 50) has always stuck out to me with its eccentric time signatures. I was just listening to it again after some time. Parts of the song, including the outro, are in 17/8. Yeah, you read that right. And it fucking […]
I really am a pedantic piece of shit, aren’t I? “Network Interface Card card”
Something in my fists I punch out with it I can feel it leaving me Like a bright flowing stream Of light and negativity This stale, blocked chi Thank you for leaving me Grounding, turning to nothing Disappearing
I’m caught between my irritation of my neighbor’s kids going outside every day to play, screaming/yelling everything for hours outside my office window… and my jealousy of them enjoying being outside so much.
It’s like what happened before. Only it’s the other way around. Smart.
I think the social media space needs weighted upvoting. What I mean by this is that you can upvote *more* than your ‘single-vote’ count, depending on your current allotment of…oh I don’t know.. “vote currency” ? Hopefully you know what I mean. Maybe you’d get a certain amount for how much time you spend on […]
Contemplating awareness itself is a satisfying but tricky task. Many people have said during the conversation of meditation to me, “But how can you think about not thinking? Isn’t that still thinking??” Yes, and you should stop thinking about not thinking, and just not think ;)
CC is like open sharing, but with teeth.
Today is todayAnd tomorrow, you seeIs just another mark In infinity
(straight from the stickynote..please forgive the run-on sentences, it was a very ‘stream-of-consciousness’ thing) A cartoon musical number where Donald Trump and Eric/Don Jr/etc. are there as kids asking what they should do since they won’t be able to afford some extravagant thing if the bank loan rate is that high, and Donald burst out […]
“When the game is over, the king and the pawn go back in the same box.” – Italian Proverb (via Powerctl on Slashdot)
My grandparents on my mother’s side had a hearing aid business/office when I was little. I remember my parents dropping me off there on occasion to “work”, my grandparents assigning me some duties such as sorting the small glossy brochures for different products. I remember sorting through them as quickly and efficiently as possible, to […]
The optics would be perfect.
Musk has apparently gone full-on troll against Wikipedia. It’s really sad to see somebody who has done so much for scientific progress stoop so low in his public interactions. I’m honestly ashamed I ever looked up to him as an entrepreneur and cheered my son on years back to write a school report on of […]
You’re pathetic But to your credit You’re the main character I don’t get it Sucks up your debt For all it’s worth Dig in your heels Big in the feels You don’t see what’s real You don’t see what’s real Win one over, nothing is colder, but you’ve got a coat So far ahead, but […]
Yeah, it’s scary. Do it anyway.

“It’s important that we explore space and the universe. We need to explore other planets. Esp. those nearest to us in Andromeda, so we can view them as a threat.” –J0hnny Rayg0n
Thought that this was interesting listening to after 5 years as I’m going through the process of giving my past audio blogs relevant filenames. Like a visit from the past.
Am I gonna trade my time for moneyOr am I gonna change the worldFocus my light to a dollarWatch the edges curl Should I live by the riptideAnd extinguish my flameI could ask you what to doBu I know what you’ll say
I wonder if the big social networks (looking at you Facebook, LinkedIn, etc.) artificially slow their site responses to inflate the “time spent on our platform” KPI.
How hard is an honest apology to some people? …Or is it just not in them?
Fourteenth Amendment Equal Protection and Other Rights
There’s a lot to be worried about in this late-stage of capitalism and humans.. AI infiltrating art itself, for example. What humans need is a universal agreement that technology != art. We need to separate art and technology. We’ve got to understand again that the value of art is that it is created by humans […]
He’s currently shifting posture to include even more calls for violence and more general focus on weaponry (guns specifically). This guy is desperate. Be aware, to those who easily hear his dog whistles (everybody?).
Don’t you come around here No don’t you come ’round here Don’t you come around here No don’t you… Think you know it all Yeah think you know it Think you know it all Yeah think you know it Take a step back, and see… There’s two sides to every story Come on there’s two […]
When I read the news I always really hope that He’s a dead corpse now
“Begin with criticism, then you go to protest, then you go to impeachment, now you go to indictment, and none of them work. I mean what’s next?“ Uhm, I’m sorry – “none of them work” ? It’s working. You’re just fucking scared because we haven’t given up yet, and things are finally coming to a […]
