I’ve been back on the CD tip since getting our car, and it’s a LOT like what buying vinyl was like in the ‘90s right now: steals to be had on rad old stuff (if you can find a place selling them), but cool new stuff is being pressed in tiny runs and needs to be snapped up ASAP.
Interesting convo with a friend who owns a hip NYC record shop about a sudden renewed interest in CDs, which were a negligible part of his business till recently.

Sharing art isn't quite the same as creating it in the first place, but it's akin to that in that you are making its exist for others who might not have known it otherwise. It's an act of kindness and generosity. Something wrong with your soul if you never ever do that.

i think after dozenss of scenarios where people were correct too soon in their assessments of dicks, frauds and absolute hacks we'd eventually see a shift towards more critical examination of these types the moment they appear. but we never do. we certainly don't get apologies for hitting bullseye.
now, given that KSA is putting 100s of people to death though / doing record high executions, though, many of them foreigners, one wonders why mrbeast of all fucking people chooses now to want to put a theme park there

every good scary movie understands this on some level. maybe it's not a Trans Metaphor per se but it's at least a Female Sexuality Metaphor or a Gay Metaphor. in another strain of good scary movies, a long tradition but Peele is a recent example, it's a Race Metaphor. formally, critically parallel.

If white folks let Marjorie Taylor Greene get a redemption arc, that’s it for me. I’m convinced y’all can’t be helped.
She wasn’t naive. She wasn’t misguided. She was deeply invested in the hate, chaos, and cruelty she pushed.

It’s Cool to Have No Followers Now
As social media has become older, more manipulable, and more automated by artificial intelligence, flouting online popularity has gained a new cachet.
