today is a good day to ask yourself how much you actually support the independent artists and creators you enjoy, beyond just liking and subscribing. do you pay them money for their work? do you buy their things? fund alternative culture now or be left with the slop.
There’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for people to build on the rubble of what’s being destroyed before our eyes. Private corporations bending over to forcefeed everyone government-approved speech is evil and amoral, but more than anything this creates boring, inauthentic, unwatchable shit.

At the Gates are one of the all time greats. RIP Tomas
The passing of Tomas Lindberg is another huge blow to our scene. A true larger than life legend, whose instantly recognisable style was often imitated, but never bettered, he leaves behind a legacy of work that will live forever.

I saw Warren Zevon's last non festival show at The Barkley Ballroom in Frisco, CO on Aug 06, 2001. He started the show with "I never thought I'd be in a shithole like this"

Ethel Cain: “America was built by immigrants, so the aggression and violence being carried out against them by the American government is appalling on so many levels."

Ethel Cain is among 100+ artists who have joined forces in a campaign calling to abolish ICE

I worked at a concession stand for high school sports and Brock Lesnar ordered a hot dog from me.
Right folks. Feeling rather down at the moment so bringing back an oldie

Got my mom and wife physical picture books of them with my daughter. Holding pictures and looking at them not on a screen is magical.

this is maybe trite at this point but it is in your interest to find ways to create things. basically everyone wants you to be consuming nonstop. making stuff, from cooking to photography or whatever, can help you feel more in control. doesn’t even have to be something you share with other people

My favorite part about the truck is the logistics. a thread
1. He browses online maybe for "divorced dad truck stickers"
2. Then checks out a few sites and browses until he see one and is like "yeah that's gonna go on my car."
making it clear how normal and deserving of custody i am with my cool truck

the astroturfed attempt at legitimization of "prompt engineering" is still so funny to me. even if the output of AI stuff was worth anything at all, the idea of somebody being 'good at it' is like giving out awards for renting the best movie

really funny aspect of people who believe in woke mind virus stuff is when they see someone who made edgy jokes decades ago being a decent person now and they're like nooo they got him too! wokeness! and it's like idk man maybe some people just grow up whereas you have steadfastly refused to
