My album is recorded—basically done, audiowise. Now it's all stuff like… should I try to commission cover art instead of using my own, should I EQ this track, am I going to revise the track order again, am I doing cassettes, do I know people who would show up for a Bandcamp listening party, etc

I like After Later Audio's MIC (Mutable Instruments Clone) series. I have a couple of them and IIRC Émilie Gillet's name is on the PCBs

If you were alive in the 1980s, this is among the most wonderful & truly incredible things you have ever witnessed in your lifetime.

I didn't have any particular interest in Cincinnati until I saw that this guy hates it just as much as some of my favorite U.S. cities

Besides quote-posting being deliberately excluded from Mastodon I feel like a lot of fedi also has a taboo on overt dunking for whatever reason. Though people can find other ways to be mean

I've been bedridden for the last 7 months, unable to work, and now my roommate who was covering rent is having tax issues. I need to raise a few thousand dollars to cover rent and bills for this month, so If you could send a couple dollars, it'd really help. Thanks so much.

I've been trying to suppress the instinct that the reason MAGA hates this guy is that he did cooler crimes than the president

yeah, it's like when a cult in this country disintegrates because its central charismatic leader has died without establishing a succession mechanism. happens all the time but this society keeps generating new cults

Pajama Sam is always a good time. I love the anarcho-communist carrot in Pajama Sam 1. Also recommend Freddi Fish 3 if you haven't played it recently. Just an incredible amount of silly surplus animations and sound design in clickable background elements

BS: How was that? How long were you in jail?

MM: One night. They let you make one phone call, and I called the Ugandan Ambassador in Washington, DC, talked to him, and he said, “What are you doing interfering in the affairs of a foreign country?” I said, “What? We just got our independence! This is the same struggle. Have you forgotten?” Anyway, he got me out. Two or three weeks later, I was in my room. There was a knock at the door. Two gentlemen in trench coats and hats said, “FBI.” I thought, “Wow, just like on television.” They sat down. They were there to find out why I had gone – because this turned out to be big – it is after Montgomery that King organized his march on Selma. They wanted to know who had influenced me. After one hour of probing, the guy said, “Do you like Marx?”

I said, “I haven’t met him.”

Guy said, “No, no, he’s dead.”

“Wow, what happened?”

“No, no, he died long ago.”

I thought the guy Marx had just died. So then, “Why are you asking me if he died long ago?”

“No, he wrote a lot. He wrote that poor people should not be poor.”

I said, “Sounds amazing.”

I’m giving you a sense of how naïve I was. After they left, I went to the library to look for Marx. So that was my introduction to Karl Marx.

Incredible scene.

FBI: Do you like Marx?

Mhmood Mamdani: I haven’t met him.

FBI: No, no, he’s dead.

MM: Wow, what happened?

FBI: No, no, he died long ago. ... He wrote that poor people should not be poor.

MM: Sounds amazing.

it’s absurd that NYT forced him to delete these skeets, which … convey the factual information that Zohran Mamdani is, in fact, a man of South Asian descent who was born and raised in Africa, and that the pseudonymous source of the hacked material is a white supremacist eugenicist.
