WTF Happened In 1971? Visit the post for more.

Recently came upon this fascinating site wtfhappenedin1971.com. Reminded me the Powell Memo started circulating in 1971. Read @davidsirota.comβ€˜s new book on the plane today and … yeah that sure happened and is still happening. How can we back away from normalized corruption?

After a long day, I find it cleansing to put on a good old vinyl record and listen to it

WHY WE BLEEP 055: DIETER DOEPFER β€” Why We Bleep Podcast The genesis of Eurorack in the 90s, collaborations with Kraftwerk, the 'red stripe' controversy (if you know you know) - in this episode we hear from Dieter Doepfer, in a live interview from Machina B...

Enjoyed hearing Dieter Doepfer's story in the most recent Why We Bleep podcast. Dieter was always super friendly to me at trade shows, even though early on I was a nobody. His genuine love for making synthesizers is infectious

I always love those lists of "35 under 35," but as I get older, I find that I would love to know about innovations/art from people over 65. "65 over 65" please. Elders have incredible ideas that are the result of having seen the full lifecycle of previous ideas and learned from it.

The charge worked out to 25% of the price of the record. The expiration of the "de minimus" rule on import duties didn't help either as I've never paid that before on a personal purchase (< $800). So if these products are exempted, the supply chain delivering it to me didn't know about it!

I think there's a lot of confusion going on right now to be honest. I'm not sure what's exempted and what's not. This was a purchase from Peter Gabriel's website, shipping from UK to USA. The charges on the website did not display any tariff, but I got a charge from a third party for customs release

Just paid my first 25% tariff on an import good (a vinyl record). Painful! I guess I won't be buying those as often

Just returned from a weekend camping trip with friends on Whidbey Island. It might have been the best campground I have ever seen, nestled in the tall trees with trails to a dramatic bluff and beach. The world can be harsh, but this part for these few days was nourishing
