I'm already as in as I can get but there's a bit longer to go - this is an A+ concept with an even better crew behind it. Now's the best time to jump on, even if you're planning to pick it up later.

A quick reminder my Gothic Paris books are re-releasing March 10th and you can preorder them in order to get this exclusive novella!
(you can also buy a new UK edition, that would also count).

That is such a banger of a title btw

Congratulations!

everybody shut the fuck up new Laibach video just dropped

I love that one of the comments is “give me a second to process.”

I am pleasantly surprised to see the two of you, who I know from vastly different worlds, chatting.

Gotta admit I get a weird kick out of that thing where attempts at accurate historiography hit that youtube algorithm black box and you get titles like "You Won't BELIEVE how the HUSSARS used FLAILS!!"

Satan from The Adventures of Mark Twain (1985) a claymatian film where Satan is sort of a red/orange/lavender armored figure whose face is an ever changing mask on a stick

Darkness from Legend (1985) Tim Curry under a frankly quite heroic amount of make-up and prosthesis to give him HUGE devil horns, big pointy ears, and a ridiculously huge chin, for some unaccountable reason the film usually films him from the waist up

🟠nobody brings this up but it's crazy these 2 radically different yet both excellent takes on the devil came out the SAME year 1985

THE SECOND COMING, by KMFDM from the album ENEMY

Speaking of KMFDM. TIL they do a cover of Yeats' THE SECOND COMING and it absolutely slaps kmfdm.bandcamp.com/track/the-se...

So many exciting new verbs in this brave new world of ours

Welcome to the community, K1, you are welcome on my dance floor any time.

Swan swan what now Michael?

“He only uses one note, but he uses the HELL out of it.”

“I’m mad I can’t understand Bad Bunny’s lyrics because they’re not in English”

my brother millions of metalheads around the world have been happily listening to incomprehensible Finnish shrieks and Japanese death grunts since we were teens, you’re just boring and racist

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

Yeah every time I am tempted to make fun of sports people I just look at my copy of Gravity’s Rainbow sitting next to A Thousand Plateaus and let it go.

I think I’m hammering so hard on this because crossing the boundary between pop and someone who identifies as Industrial American is a cultural exchange that, no joke, feels somewhat unprecedented.

Like this: I don’t know anything about this lady but it’s clear this Fucking Rules. bsky.app/profile/beck...

To be extra clear: I could not name a single Bad Bunny song and I am tearing up at some of the semiotics people are pointing out in that performance.

as you watch all of the rah-rah pageantry of the Super Bowl it’s astounding to remember that MAGA is so weird and offputting that they’ve apparently given football to the libs in the national divorce

It's like the good and nice version of separating the art from the artist. Can't stand his music, but that's absolutely me not him, and clearly he's doing the good work, and good on him for that.

This whole Bad Bunny thing is, personally for me, a really fun extreme version of "I do not happen to enjoy what you do and I want you to keep doing it as hard as you possibly can."

I would Watch a Sports so hard.

Next time somebody tries to get me to justify the existence of the humanities, I’ll just point out how for the past two Super Bowls we’ve all jumped online and engaged in collective semiotics and hermeneutics of the half-time show as text.

It’s nice to see Sports Men from opposing teams hugging.

"prohibition in the united states" has this time lapse map that switches from folksy banjo music to ominous industrial sci-fi for the 15 seconds when alcohol was illegal nationwide

You are one of the few people I will assume good intentions of when ending a question with a period.
