I trust in my own principals of living because of how easy they are. If something doesn’t feel good for humanity at large (Generative AI, Spotify and companies invested in i rael) I don’t engage or give them money. It’s been a breeze thus far. And I feel confident in my choice to distance myself.

You can't solve all your problems with pasta but it's worth a try

well sure there’s lots of shit you can do if you just abandon all morals and principles and let the evil wash over you like a warm bath

Also, hope you feel better soon!!!

TUSINDFALD! Lush dream pop with new-age and shoegaze textures. Instant love on first listen <3

What a dream!

Nothing is yours. It is to use. It is to share. If you will not share it, you cannot use it.

Hell is a place

That's so lovely!!!

From sketch to painting

It's a byproduct of consumerism. When the appearance of a thing replaces the thing itself. A window shutter becomes a signifier of a nice house. It becomes more important to adopt the signifier than to have actual shutters.

I did it! I found the best words

Wow, weed really does turn me into a horny socialist

REST IN POWER!

Marxist historian and political scientist Michael Parenti has passed away at the age of 92.

He devoted his life to dissenting from the mainstream, challenging power and institutions, exposing contradictions, and ripping the mask off of propaganda.

‘The third world is not poor.’

The Democratic and Republican parties at their core are not enemies. They're America's good cop / bad cop that take turns getting what they want from their citizens and the world.

Ambient / Shoegaze first listens this month 🖤💙

If the world ends at least I got to listen to Boards of Canada - Dayvan Cowboy (2005)

This is just slightly uncool enough to work

Finally watched Penda's Fen and now it's all I can think about

For example, to "promote the truth" in this sponsored religious ad using an AI generated testimony from an AI generated woman. The fact of its irony and unreality is of no concern and offers no dissonance to the maker as their world view already smooths over that disconnect with ease.

I think the reason conservatives love AI so much is that it allows them to effortlessly manifest their un-realities - what better way to represent an ideology untethered from humanity than through the uncanny?

Good morning

Dilbert says to Scott Adams "father please do me the mercy of destroying me." Dilbert grabs Scott Adams by the shoulders and insists "father, please" He hands Adams a pistold and says "I yearn for non-existence." He angrily goads Adams by shouting "DO IT! DO IT YOU PUSSY!" Adams shakes and cries as he points the gun at his creation.

RIP Scott

I do realise that it's not 2009

Am I the only person crushing on the background hipster from Community season one

The 21st century has been defined by our leaders, no longer able to obscure their crimes, telling the world to disbelieve their eyes.

Partial 2026 moodboard

I had an ex-friend once claim to me that diversity in movies today is "forced" and "pandering" and I asked him who he thought was being pandered to when movies were mostly white?
