Ban injuries, you cowards.
So we're basically wiping out 250 years of science, education, and progress for a man-baby in a diaper who is the living embodiment of the Dunning Kruger effect.
Yay.
Sweet to have 2 tracks included in
@residentadvisor.bsky.social 's 'The Best Electronic Tracks of 2000-25'
So thx to whoever voted for 'Poison Dart' + 'Skeng'
BTW just to confirm, its me laughing on the intro to SKENG 😉

I don't really care for his game but in a league full of apathetic, spoiled adult men, it's obvious he gives a shit, that he's willing to out-everything everyone and that he ignites his teammates. He's fantastic for the association. Also, he's obviously worked his ass off on his offensive game.
Double-digit field goals made and double-digit free throws made in a triple-double by a rookie, NBA history
Elgin Baylor
Oscar Robertson (10x lol)
Michael Jordan (2x)
AND DERIK QUEEN
33 points (11/15 FGs, 11/13 FTs), 10 rebounds, 10 assists (4 blocks too)
The Raptors let Donnie Wahlberg into the arena. That explains this.
LeBron James has scored 10+ points in one consecutive game
The Athletic staff wrote about an early season concern for every NBA team. Fred Katz had to go metaphysical to find one for OKC:
For #autechre fans... deep glens just released four of their live sets opening for some of Ae's North American tour. Great stuff: deepglens.bandcamp.com/album/dg-ae-...
In the face of all the AD apathy and broader Mavs org hate, these two anchoring a vibe surge in Dallas is insanely valuable and unexpected. Nembs apparently go hard!

A man with glasses and a Carhartt jacket at a ferry terminal; the sky is blue and the sun is shining.
About to hop on a boat to Vancouver to see #Autechre and Mark Broom live tonight. This blue sky could not be louder.
But it’s clear to me that title is referencing the hybrids. They are humanity’s worst technology nightmare: unlimited technological power with autonomous sense-making abilities and super-human strength. Far more scalable damage potential than a few Xenos.
Yeh I love that framing.
There was a lot of obvious and understandable eye rolling about the final episode title, everyone assuming OK HUMANS ARE THE REAL MONSTERS.
Super jacked for season 2.
I understand anyone who fawns over the canon and reveres Xenos as the ultimate scary being in the dark, but I've been a fan long enough that... they're just not that scary anymore! Xenos as simple antagonists has been done a LOT and so the approach the series is taking is interesting as fuck to me.
Fans who have been consuming graphic novel Xenos have been used to seeing/imagining them in daylight for a while; and sure they thrive in dark spaces but ultimately a creature as refined for survival as a Xeno needs to be able to operate in the light as well.
I feel you but I also think that there's an interesting reality there - that most things that scare the shit out of us are severely reduced once a little daylight is applied. Why should Xenos be any different?
The Brits have such a way with words. You know. Those things with letter that help you define and say stuff about things.
For the love of all that is sacred: Bleep.com, stop with the .wav files! Please give us AIFF with some gotdam metadata. WAV files make managing a personal library very fucking annoying.
Let’s make a planet in which nobody is starving. Let’s make a planet in which men and women have equal access to power. Let us make a planet in which no ethnic group has it over another ethnic group. Let’s have a planet in which science and engineering is used for the benefit of everybody on the planet. And my personal idiosyncrasy, let’s have a world in which we go to other worlds. ~ Carl Sagan

For a lot of relatively comfortable Americans, electing an emotionally incontinent imbecile was a bit of entertainment. A game. Good sport, owning those libs. I hope they’re duly entertained.
