Did some grass touching yesterday with @alabapsi.bsky.social in the small Redwood Grove at the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden, one of the few places in Southern California that has redwood trees.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

Best Ministry record imo. Title track goes so hard. Perfect blend of Thrill Kill Kult sampladelic industrial and the thrashy stuff to come.

MINISTRY @ministryband.bsky.social · 2d

The Land Of Rape And Honey, our third studio album was released October 11, 1988 on Sire Records. The album peaked at 164 on Billboard 200 and certified Gold by the RIAA. “Stigmata” was the single. Videos were made for “Stigmata” and “Flashback.”

Autechre’s set last night was definitely the best out of the three times I’ve seen them, first in 08 for Quaristice and then in 15. You can tell they’ve been gigging heavily for the last 3 years. This was just straight up crowd-pleasing IDM, of an energy level that isn‘t on their records. Amazing.

Having a great time at the Autechre show

Fuck, my friend reminded me how much late Hollis shit rules again and now all the powerful moments from Eden and Laughing Stock and 98 S/T are swirling around my head in one powerful iconic sonic miasma. Take my freedom!

One thing about me is that in any new workplace I join, I am GOING to move into your music social channel and take it over. I am the #listentothis colonizer. It’s a package deal that comes with hiring me.

Ah that’s too bad, would have been nice to meet you @eyesack.bsky.social

I've been deeply enjoying this 1-track LP from @jeremywentworth.com for the last couple weeks. Wonderful, serene little bit of Eno, this. Definitely a new permanent staple in my old-standbys ambient music collection. Placid yet stimulating as it should be

the thing about asking for a worker owned anything on the web is that the pitch has to account for the fact that the website is going to - innately - be slower to add features, slower to respond to issues, have financial struggles, etc

I came here after Cohost died. It was the closest to what people want that can be realistically achieved by Not A Massive Corporation. It kinda sucked. It was basically LJ/Tumblr. Sorry, these things are way less sexy when you don’t have crazy Web 2.0 cloud infra. You have to accept less sexy.

this was called Cohost—not enough people used it or spent money on it relative to the amount of money it cost to (1) pay its 4 employees a living wage for their labor; and (2) keep the site running, so it died, nothing like it has taken its place at the scale it existed, and now we're here

Another splat from Sat night's "Carved" @ Descanso Gardens. This thing was perfectly evenly lit, fully traversable, and I used the long selfie stick to get a good portion of the roof, but the main obstacle this time was just getting around the loads of people everywhere. #Scaniverse #GaussianSplat

Still processing the #NIN show we went to a couple weeks ago by way of writing about it. I can’t upload more than one vid to a post on Microblog so I’ll just share this one on its own here
I’m still so glad that I got to see Freese kill it on the drums 😫
