Pretty sure resistance has never been more futile than resistance to AI, especially from people using social media via their smartphones, some who even monetize their online presence under the "influencer" designation. Your chance to resist ended with prior unquestioned embraces of technology.
Another forgettable work week begins on a dreary Monday morning...and then, out of nowhere, a new DIIV track emerges: www.youtube.com/watch?v=4nnT...
Another Edward Bernays quote, this time about how those who can manipulate the habits and opinions of the masses can control the public mind. A century later, how we doing?
The 96 years since he said this have been going rather well, don't you think? #propaganda #advertising #publicopinion #worshipmedia #worshipcontent #worshipcelebrity #worshipfantasy #worshipthescreen #worshiptheself
An Edward Bernays quote - the father of PR - about how the average person is easy to manipulate and has no original thoughts, and there are millions more people exactly like them.
The twin of millions of others is a harsh way to describe every single social media user. #Bernays #propaganda #publicopinion #advertising #mediastudies
Was afraid to click this new Deadguy track because they are perhaps my all-time favorite heavy hardcore / "noisecore" band, but this is actually very, very good: www.youtube.com/watch?v=rXLR...
Post-rock as a genre has devolved into a pretty boring "this all sounds the same to me" reality, but this new BRUIT track challenges my thinking on that statement: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkhf...
Hell yes, the new Caustic Wound album is streaming a day early: www.youtube.com/watch?v=icB-... #grindcore #deathmetal
There is a Democratic party? Where did you spot this cryptozoological myth in the wild?

"It’s a long story, but the moving image had something to do with it – which is to say, the way we have let television, video, and screen culture run almost entirely unregulated, purely for profit, and without regard to its impact on the minds of our citizens."

Integrity covering Earth Crisis in 2025 for a split release on Relapse is exactly the surprise I needed to end this week. Warning: induces moshing wherever you may be. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELK5...
No better way to start a dull, drab Tuesday than a NEW SWANS TRACK: www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYkj... #metalsky #Swans

That was an apocalypse they didn’t design nor control. The one they are currently trying to implement is a different story, unfortunately.
This remains the best Coalesce album, and works incredibly well as motivation on heavy lifting days at the gym, my fellow 90s hardcore weirdos. coalesce.bandcamp.com/album/functi...
The influence Curtis Yarvin has on the current government, particularly Musk, is immense. His playbook is being put into play. www.thenerdreich.com/reboot-elon-...
Good background here for anyone trying to better understand the current VC-funded attempt to disrupt and ultimately replace the U.S. government: www.vcinfodocs.com
Not so easy being Tom Fucking Brady, is it? #GOAT
Yo, someone hacked your account and wrote #chillvibes in the bio.
One of the better acoustic guitar shredders in the style of American primitive folk I've heard in quite some time: robnoyesvdsq.bandcamp.com/album/arc-mi... #RobNoyes
Just one of the tightest songs of all time by the late Sinéad O'Connor. That is all.

Frig, I spelled clutching wrong. YOU WIN THIS ROUND!
The closed reply person calling me a weirdo? How dare you! Of course I am, but you don’t know me well enough to slander me like this! Cutching my pearls! 🙃
Stop doing drugs and start prepping for a violent revolution. 🍀
Real question. Are you sure Hank done it this way? #Waylon www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qgen...
There has been outrage for decades, but the Democrats have ignored it. Fuck ‘em. Vote them all out and start over. Age 65+ millionaires with early IPO access are friends with the system, not us. COMPLICIT.
Weird. Chappell Roan objectively sucks, but who am I to argue against a music industry anointment to move some units and give the blogosphere’s comments section something to chew upon? Bring it.
The two grades are A+ and F-. Just depends where you stand.
