“Screenshot of a promoted Reddit post by u/AYAGDOS. The post reads: ‘Navigating gender dysphoria? Join our confidential, cross-country study of 18–25 year olds to tell your story, challenge preconceptions, and have YOUR experience reflected in the science.’ Below is a banner graphic with the Northwestern University logo and the text ‘TRANS OR GENDERQUEER? SHARE YOUR STORY.’ The image shows a close-up of a hand with light pink nail polish, partially painted blue, held up against a blurred background. A link to ayagdos.org and a ‘Learn More’ button appear at the bottom, along with Reddit vote and share icons.”
If you see this, don't participate. It's a rigged study by Lisa Littman and unethical researcher J. Michael Bailey meant to undermine access to care. Spread the word.

Ascending EP, by Pelican
4 track album
Current listen (2026/02/01)
Definitely a release more aligned with straightforward sludge metal from Pelican, but it's a direction I think they're showing great strength in with this bite-sized release. A full album in this vein would be a treat, I think.

Hell Interface, by Nightmarer
4 track album
This new Nightmarer EP is awesome
I'm glad it's cementing that almost sludgier approach with mixes that breathe a bit more, it's really helping them stand out to me (speaking as a fan since Cacophony of Terror)

at the risk of sounding like a boomer, I really think what helped elevate a song like Raining Blood to classic status was knowing when to leave the guitar playing slightly sloppy to add to the intensity
is it because of how grindpilled I am? almost certainly

His name was Alex Pretti, he was 37. He was recording ICE, directing traffic, and helping up someone agents had shoved to the ground. They murdered him for it.

The newest video shows very clearly that they attacked him for coming to an aid of a woman that the agents pushed, and then executed him while he was immobilized. Everything the government has said, like with Good, has been a complete lie.

This protection, this status, is what we need to be willing to sacrifice in order to dismantle white supremacy. Prioritizing our safety and comfort upholds this structure which will continue to dehumanize, harm, and kill people en masse.

White people who oppose white supremacy lose the protection of whiteness as the definition of whiteness inevitably narrows. Recorded public executions from pigs that were then denied or excused were practiced on non-white folks for years. Now it's pushing even further.

Realistically it's probably just the fact that I need to study variable declaration and data types in the language more particularly, it's only been less than a week
All jokes aside, I like it so far, I feel like it's more intuitive than a lot of folks initially suggested it was to me

Love having people tell me "hey try learning C++ the compilers actually tell you what's wrong more often than FORTRAN" only to have basically the same amount of segmentation fault messages with no explanation
I love having to guess what went wrong with memory allocation

My posting and working on creative stuff is definitely gonna slow down (and has started to slow) since I've been busy. Trying to audit a class, getting back on my research, teaching again, some home stuff I had to take care of this week, etc.

Every Rock, Every Half-Truth Under Reason, by Kayo Dot
5 track album
Current listen (2026/01/21)
Giving a revisit to my favorite album from 2025 (close second is Lonely People With Power). I know this album was pretty divisive among Kayo Dot fans, but I think it's a master stroke of eerie experimental music.
