Why oh why is audio for linux such a dumpster fire?

This is a model for what actual masculinity should be. Men don’t need to spend more time in caves beating their chests with other men; they need to take their daughters to a meaningful thing and talk to them about it. Relatedly I think the biggest cure for toxic masculinity is platonic women friends
In 2023 I became obsessed with videos of dads in cargo shortswaiting in parking lots during Taylor Swift's Eras Tour. So when she came to town, I grabbed a camera and headed down to talk to them. I thought it'd be funny. It turned out to be something else entirely.

Do you enjoy "classic rock" like that early heavy metal, Hammond organ kind of grooving? Worth a listen.

I have been listening on and off to https://thegamedesignroundtable.com as they discuss rpg design.

The episode I listened to today talked about how most games don't actually teach you how to run the game. It's taught by word of mouth, and tradition.

This reminded me of how we in the sphere of […]

If you dig some groovy drums, and why wouldn't you, this a very tasty album.

The beats on this one is just something. My copy is the original pressing, with less tracks, though.

When I got the crowdfunding delivery of *Coriolis: The Great Dark*, I was kind of wondering what had made me enthusiastic about the game to begin with.

Now the campaign box *Flowers of Algorab* dropped, and I'm actually feeling a slight twitch of enthusiasm again!

A short while back I was made aware of a rpg I'd never heard of before, *Rêve: the Dream Ouroboros*. It was available via Lulu, and I got it and started reading.

It's an intriuing game. Very odd rules, and quite crunchy in places you wouldn't expect. It feels like it's coming from another […]

I don't do Spotify, but here's my musical year. Frankly, I have no idea what some of these are about...

Jaha, ni med er Spotify wrapped. Nu har det kommit en summering från Tidal!

Mycket spännande att få se vad folk kallar den musik jag lyssnar på.

The two relics of exploding stars are black holes and neutron stars.
Both were discovered by women.
Jocelyn Bell discovered neutron stars, in the guise of “pulsars”, in 1967.
Since then, three Nobel prizes have gone to male scientists for their work on pulsars, but none to Bell.

I'm re-reading *Hawk* by Steven Brust.

For some reason I picture Morrolan e'Drien looking like a mix of a young Glenn Danzig and Christopher Lee.

I'm not sure why that is.

I was just reminded of a small experience of joy last night. By chance I managed a perfectly cooked egg, where the yolk had *just* begun to get its act together.

Marvellous. I could just feel the taste, by thinking back to it.

Enjoy the small moments of bliss, friends.

Sometimes life sucks, and sometimes you despair. Time to look inside, for the one. You need the psychedelic community.

I used to listen quite a lot to Faith No More. When "Angel Dust" dropped I got it, and it did get a few spins, but it never became as much of a favourite as "The Real Thing".

Today I listened to "The Real Thing" again, for the first time in ages. I also read the texts all through the album […]

Every time I listen to Robert Hunter's elegy for the Texan songbird in "Bird Song" I feel so sad. I guess it encapsulate that feeling so well.

Is it just my internet, or have Malcontent Games and any trace of "Rêve the Dream Ouroboros" disappeared off the net??

Jag har ju försummat att puffa för den bästa novemberlåten. Brukar annars göra detta varje år.

Detta är ett perfekt soundtrack för det estetiska november. Stadens ljus reflekterat i regnvåta gator. Omfamna mörkret!

For the first time in maybe 25 years I've attended a gaming con! Games were played, fun was had.

First I played Brindlewood Bay. I have some issues with the game engine, but the game was well run. Old ladies rule.

The next one was Urban Jungle, and it was quite neat. The GM was less agile, but […]

Another thing that resonated with me, related to the Bob Weir documentary, is why do we create?

I listened to a podcast where one of the hosts described how he used to just sit in his home studio, running some loops on his analog synths, trying some beats and making pleasant sounds. Then he […]

I just watched "The Other One - The Long Strange Trip of Bob Weir", and found it fascinating.

True, a dead head would find it interesting, but I think there where lot of things in that documentary that is worth pondering.

What are you about? In the end of your life, what are you proud of? Bob […]
