imo it doesn't get hammered on enough that labour knew for over a year they were about to win a majority to make a dictator blush and this is how prepared they were

In a touching tribute to his mentor, Morgan McSweeney has resigned in disgrace.

reading robert fripp interviews from the 70s is insane. you are a strict professor why are you talking about practicing ethical non-monogamy

A 2 panel sketch disgram of a 1 meter tall pod. in the second panel, an oval section pops off and a demonic little face with short tentacles flies out, crudely drawn.

My favorite artifact in the "you don't need AI to do art" discourse is, of course, screenwriter Dan O'Bannon's sketch of the facehugger to explain it to Giger.

A Day for Gaza Today, The Nation is turning over its website exclusively to stories from Gaza and its people. This is why.

Media coverage of Gaza has plummeted. So today on @thenation.com, we're doing something pretty special: we're only running pieces by people in and from Gaza.

We're calling it "A Day for Gaza." You can find links to all of the incredible pieces here. Please read! www.thenation.com/article/worl...

the thing i love about these interviews is that all you have to do to come out looking decent is be a normal guy who knows what theyre talking about, and instead you get an endless procession of utter dipshits

well theres the answer, i was listening to the wrong album

eek! its a pretty good song but the production on the studio album is too thin for me and the second half is a lot weaker. it works way better live though, and this version most of all

tbh i dont really like jean genie either but its a good crowdpleasing anthem

the live archive stuff from recent years is a godsend. i agree with wakelyn that liveandwell is the best 90s one by a mile but theyre all worth listening too, the outside stuff fucks live and the weird rearrangements of older stuff like mwstw are cool too

now the cowards need to reissue oy vey baby

put off listening to it for years bc of the reviews and my distaste for cracked actor but either visconti did a steven wilson-level remaster or im listening to the wrong album

(but not sex machine, which is nearly 14 minutes but builds to an *overwhelming* climax), but i had a whale of a time, and its displaced dance to the music as my fav sly album (out of, uh, three, but hey). also, one of the best rhythm sections in popular music

mature is the word. now "mature" and "sly stone" sound like a terrible combo, and this *is* less exuberant, but its still fun, only matched with an ominous intensity and some sick psychedelia. some of the shorter songs are a bit dippy, some of the jams go on a bit-

bootleggers will describe a recording as "pretty good" and itll sound like it was recorded through a sock three blocks away from the actual performance
