So, #tfcon is coming up in Chicago. How are things up there?

I've been adding some cheap DVDs to my collection lately. I'm a firm believer in physical media (Feel free to send me your collection if you're tired of it). That said, for a new acquisition, does it go under A for "The Adventures of" or P for Priscilla, Queen of the Desert?"

Lots of places now are now clearancing out their DVDs for cheap. I was thinking of @alphachromeyayo.com when I found a trilogy of Christmas movies starring Columbo's Peter Falk as an angel. I love finding weird things I didn't know existed.

Trivia: Apparently TNT Jackson was co-written by the guy who played Mr. Futterman in Gremlins.

Now you know.

It's Bandcamp Friday and, as ever, support on there helps me very, very much! 💖

I've got mountains of music on there, from hot, horny jazz fusion to chill liminal thrills 🌊

Here's a bit about who I am and what I do ✨

Finally got my copy of Auxiliary Magazine SS2025 issue.

Guess who’s in it?

CZARINA and the Spring 2025 issue of Auxiliary Magazine with Reikon Devore on the cover. This issue contains a featured spread and massive interview of her and her musical journey.

I sometimes feel like Ineed a dog but a good dog deserves a better scheduled home than mine. Cats are generally more independent. Dogs need more emotional validation.

I have cats. They demand wet food. I will not be staying in bed.

Neil Diamond once attributed his success to staying in bed and sleeping until his body was done sleeping.

Any recommendations for a good offline (not cloud based) word processor that doesn't hide in their TOS that they can use your work to train AI?
Bonus points if it has an Android version.

Same. I think I'm missing Beyond Reanimator.

There's a lot of money to be made in the empty promises industry.

Dave Karpf @davekarpf.bsky.social · Aug 29

The single most important thing to understand about digital futurism is this:

When the digital future that Sam Altman ( or Elon, or Andreessen, etc) predicts fails to materialize, he doesn’t have to give the money back.

Grift attracts grift and scum tends to pool together so I predict that it's only a matter of time before paparazzi is entirely replaced by AI "photography."

I only found out recently, after ripping my DVD of Reanimator and finding the video among the files, that there's a Euro track/artist based on the Reanimator movies.
