Finding this in the cutout bin 40 years ago was life changing. One of those records I instantly connected with, even as I'm saying "what the fuck IS this???"

Rumer Willis is like Bruce Willis' daughter, right?
I don't know anything about what she's shilling for but it is definitely a commercial that grabs your attention.

I love all the strands to this - soul music for sure but the raw synth squiggles into spring reverb is very Lee Scratch Perry. And the bassline has Another One Bites The Dust vibes.

Is the 3630 why I don't like Daft Punk much?

chaircrusher @cornwarning.com · 15h

3630s sound like shit. I don't know what Daft Punk does with them, but I've always hated them, and I can tell when a producer (mis)uses them.

I think the oldest and faintest were from indigenous people, likely Meskwaki, who used simple symbols to write messages. Dots, squares, circles.

People have been carving grafitti in the stone outcroppings at Wildcat Den State Park for at least 150 years.

Grafitti is both strenuously discouraged and regarded as an attraction on this trail.

Wildcat Den State Park. Grafitti scratched into stone along a steep, narrow passage.

& FYI I'm old enough to have eaten Kentucky Fried Chicken when the Colonel was still alive, and today's KFC is a pale imitation of the OG.

Life is, to quote a great person*, is swimming upstream through a river of filth. The only thing you can do is hold your head up high and keep swimming.

*Billy Graham? Colonel Sanders? Duke Ellington? Who knows who that great person is.

Harlan Sanders, founder of Kentucky Fried Chicken.

what percentage of social ills at the moment can be explained credibly by or at least betted understood through the lens of "a class of corrupt plutocrats is stealing from you and laughing at you?" i think it's a big number

@jwomack.bsky.social's
novel "Ambient" has scenes where the super-rich men are getting blown under the table by underage girls, and whenever I see Trump sitting at a table, that's what I think is happening.

I meant filthy good. You can do inhumanly perfect and airless with Rack too. I like when people put in the work to distort and make a mess.

It's really cool. It reminds me of Komar and Melemid's paintings.

1. Fuck the Wall Street Journal
2. Does explaining it was meant to be a private message make anything about it right?

WSJ is reporting that the Truth Social post where Trump told Pam Bondi to prosecute Comey *really was supposed to be a private message*

Inside the Justice Department Where the President Calls the Shots

The president has executed a wholesale transformation of the Justice Department, taking control in ways he could have only dreamed of in his first term.

I listened to 20 seconds of Geese and then 20 seconds of Goose and it isn't even close: Geese > Goose.

Geese seem to be post-Pavement slacker Rock. Goose seems intent on resurrecting everything irritating about 1970s LA pop music.

All decisions are final.

We're all tired but considering the exhausting business of being black in this society, it's much much worse. It was exhausting when a black man was president, but imagine it when the entire government is bent to the will of unrepentant racists.

"Black people are tired. Not metaphorically tired—actually tired. The kind of tired that turns every group chat into a mix of gallows humor and emotional triage."

I write about white ignorance and how exhausting it is to hear white ppl insist "this isn't who we are, when it's ALWAYS who we've been.

White People’s Performative Ignorance Is Exhausting—Opinion

Disbelief over authoritarianism in America isn’t a cutesy personality trait. It’s a confession: You haven’t been paying attention.
