The Frustration Of Gatekeeping Around Modern Cassette Culture Thanks to the rise of the cassette in the 21st century, indie and unsigned performers have an alternative to online streaming… if the existing culture doesn’t scare them away.

I'm getting back into cassettes for music thanks to new models sporting USB-C and Bluetooth. Exploring the communities for buying advice, audiophiles are trying to gatekeep you away from the new hardware. If cassettes are going grow, the community needs to support new hardware and a wider audience.

Bluesky doesn't do sports, although it's slightly quieter than usual because a significant proportion of UK Bluesky has just finished watching Mixed Doubles Curling in the Winter Olympics.

Now we may never find out where the white ball is, ultimately, going.

Thank you John Virgo for being an authoritative voice on one of my favourite sports.

Now That's What I Call Music! 23 (UK series) - NowMusic Wiki

I hit Now 23 in my quest today and I was absolutely staggered by how vital and electric Jesus He Knows Me feels today, when we are surrounded by so much prosperity gospel bullshit. Sometimes you've got to hand it to....Genesis.

Yes, anything on linear tv is either funerals or gambling, gravy is outdoor, bus stop, billboards

1) Fricy (TajΓ­n basically)
2) Small plates being rebranded as "GLP-1 compatible" (fuck off)
3) Scandinavia! (in other areas of culture that have had a scandi phase this is generally about signifying exoticness while still centring whiteness)

Also I was reading the food trend reports to find out what is coming after 'hot honey' and you won't like it!

My theory is that the meal prep doctrine is resulting in a lot of people eating dry unseasoned chicken breasts and they could do with a little lubrication and flavour
