I’m afraid at this stage not! they cost more than CDs to make now so it’s hard to justify selling them for more than a CD, I feel like tapes should always be cheap!! but also not ruling out a cassette run in the future if there was that demand!

Long story but uh… we had to rename the album. It is now called ‘Bots’.

Pre-order it here!

this one here is crazy

✨🫶🫶🫶✨

Preorder on Bandcamp rn and it all goes to @pickledarling.bsky.social! #bandcampfriday

Okay here I am - just some of my recent faves, purchases, or things sitting on my wishlist, starting with this very exciting preorder! Listening to @pickledarling.bsky.social so often is like being wrapped in a blanket and it’s a delight

Can people (especially those more liberal-coded) start understanding how the anti-China stuff is directly tied to US fascism, now? Can we start being a *little* more serious (and skeptical) about who and where we get China coverage and rhetoric from?

Thanks.

my 4th album Battlebots is out on September 5 :)

Getting off US tech: a guide I’m in the process of dropping US tech services. Here’s how I did it, and options you should consider.

Silicon Valley’s alliance with Donald Trump was a mask off moment and showed the world we can’t depend on US tech companies.

For the past few months, I’ve been trying to get off US tech and I put together a guide so you find alternatives too. I hope you find it helpful!

Why should the US decide who can have certain tech? Restrictions on Iranian and Chinese technology are about preserving US geopolitical power

The United States wants the unilateral authority to decide who should be able to use certain technologies.

In a new piece, I talk about everything from Iran to Andor to discuss how US tech supremacy gives it power over others that it’s working hard to maintain — to all of our detriment.

frankie cosmos and alex g have had the best type of career trajectory. just a great collection of songs every couple years, no contrived ‘big statement’ albums, but each new record brings at least 7 more great songs to their songbook.

the zoomer revival of U2 is happening

This rules

happy 2 years to this album
