I need someone who knows more about vinyl than me to explain why the pressings from big acts are almost always lower quality than those from smaller indie acts

Am I having bad luck? Manufacturing differences?

Reddit remains undefeated.

Maybe I missed this, because to be honest, I've had other things happening in my life that has distracted me from the news, but what's the deal with DT wearing a white hat these days instead of red? Is it just trying to get away from the horrible branding the red hats have now, or something else?

There is truth to the whole, "Roars in like a lion, out like a lamb," saying for sure.

Ok one last post: I mentioned I live in a very Persian area & there are literally fireworks going off. Sharing bc I think it’s important that folks get a sense of how different communities are responding. Just reporting, not opining.

This part, I don't know if I just followed too many wrong people back in the beginning days or what, but the politics is so heavy on here. It's always felt like I just jumped from one end of the political spectrum mess of the old bird app to the other end of the spectrum mess here. It's too much.

there’s also the cross-pollination from instagram where folks are getting loads more engagement since there is less friction for millions more people- and not just “normies” but celebs and cultural production heavy-hitters.

I fear we lost the battle of Forum of Culture to threads like you suggest

The point is, if people work on making BlueSky better, with more culture, people will come here and *not* support meta.

But why support Meta?

That one was rough.

People ask what it is exactly we expect of Dems in this situation, and for me it's this.

Make these assholes fucking scared.

Make it clear that they are on borrowed time, that consequences WILL arrive, and that they will be harsh.

When this ICE shit started, a mutual I’d never met asked how to help. I sent him to a friend’s kid’s preschool that was struggling to find patrollers. He’s been there almost daily, even in brutal cold, at a school where he didn’t know anyone, to keep folks safe. We finally met and got beers tonight.

A+ shade, but also, everyone is twelve

They don’t have enough maturity to be twelve. They’ve six. At best. And my six year old nephew has more maturity than this.

It's a "bless your heart" in so many words. The "I'm praying for you" at the end is perfect.

somehow this feels Southern in the sense of US Southern culture and also in the sense of Global South

Not only did Connor make his SNL debut exactly three months after Heated Rivalry premiered, but he pitched his own sketch and it made it to the live show. I’m still in awe.

Can't remember the last time someone went from "Who?" to hosting SNL as quickly--and successfully!--as Connor Storrie.

there goes my heart!! i need more photos of the hug asap !! #hudcon #snl

Seriously, the guy says “never been seen before” so many times it’s like before him people were just sitting around waiting for something to happen

I don't believe in any gods.

But I do believe in Dolly Parton.

Calling your reps and senators can feel really nerve racking at first. We actually did an episode about this on How to Save a planet which I cannot fucking find but an easy solution is to do it with a friend.

The more you do it the less stressful it gets.

As renown philosopher George W. Bush once sagely opined:

"There's an old saying in Tennessee—I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee—that says 'Fool me once, shame on . . . shame on you. Fool me—you can't get fooled again'"
