it's live: new Mech War '77 album, free for download. it's a second retro/modern electronic industrial hybrid thing, good soundtrack for night driving an armored vehicle through an 80s post-world war 3 film, featuring @argosxiii.bsky.social face on front cover in a subtle nod to a classic FLA album
Fire and Forget, by Mech War '77

i think there should be norms of ethics and behavior that serve as guidelines and guardrails and that there should be social consequences for violating them, and more severe consequences for doing so especially brazenly or callously

If I cared, I would have "asked" ChatGPT myself, and obviously I don't care what its output is because it probably guessed wrong. Shut the fuck up loll

Grew up celebrating Thanksgiving with my family, up at my Grandpa Jack’s place in Bodega Bay in the 90s. Sci-Fi Channel would always be playing the Star Wars trilogy on a loop, so I’m celebrating with a lil bit of my Empire Strikes Back 35mm rip

Ok, i guess it’s out there now and i gotta say something somewhere, so here goes…
We lost JFRE Robot Coad yesterday.
One of my longest and closest friends and an irreplaceable organ in the circulatory system of our weirdo friend circle.
He’d finally seemed find peace in his last years.
Well, fuck…

I do like my local San Diego feed here on bsky, and that I have IRL friends here, but Mastodon is still the way
ActivityPub is actually decentralized - and has an *insane* amount of servers
Everybody here is on bsky’s server, & we’re all gonna get FUCKED when bsky eventually takes their heel turn!

More critical discourse here about NYT today than usual!
I continue to pay for my print subscription specifically because NYT is a mouthpiece for western intelligence agencies and it’s important to know the counter-narratives being presented by those in power. NYT’s heel turn should surprise no one

Grotesque flattery in public is the new norm. Strongly reminiscent of Xenophon’s observation that - roughly- tyrants cannot have any genuine friends, and they know it because they create environments that make the symmetrical basis of friendship as such impossible
