if you're not tuned into US politics you may see "LA County Sheriffs Department" and think that's just what they call their normal police but they are actually a network of violent organized white supremacist gangs with tattoos, a code of silence, initiation rites that require police brutality, etc

Fuck ICE, solidarity with everyone standing up in LA

Still LA, ICE is gathered again to start another operation after tear gassing civilians for hours at Paramount. A massive ICE presence stands across the street from civilians. This is live right now.

hi hi! we're only partway to our goal of funding an album that can pay fair rates to marginalized game composers. if you're interested in being a patron of the arts and helping to diversify the games industry, check out star's patronage project 👇🏼

F: "Abba, what is decompressing?" Me: "Oh, it's when you get to relax after a lot of hard work." F: "Ah. Maxing and relaxing."

a kid with lesbian parents will have to call one mom "mother" and the 2nd mom "earthbound"

ICE assaults union president

ICE raids an elementary school graduation. This is cruelty to children and, I believe, purposeful because they don’t want them here either in 2045 to stop the shift to minority white(ness) then. So terrorize and destroy their happiest, most hopeful days.

What I'm listening to today: "Time Eater", Ssighborggg and Luna This is an electronica song I love by Gold Panda, with the string samples replaced by a traditional Korean gayageum player, and everything else replaced with a live arrangement by a math-rock group. 💥 www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NVK...

This should be an utterly uncontroversial statement

Lyft driver picked me up from UNC, turned out he was a medicinal chemistry post-doc in a building near mine, until his grant got cut last month. Worked on novel antivirals.

Composing is just asking “is this anything” whenever you write a new note

ok but i need the male character origin stories (marcus fenix, james bond) to be the same as the tomb raider reboot where lara croft was crying the whole time about being bad at stuff. i need marcus and 007 to be fully drool-sobbing that they're bad at shooting a gun or whatever. this is equality.

Guy Klucevsek was a huge inspiration to me as a baby accordionist. He came to the University of Michigan to do a masterclass when I was there, maybe 2005? Someone suggested that we play a duet, and I was FULLY intimidated — I had only been playing the instrument for a couple years at that point.

The music world has lost a giant. I can't overstate how important Guy Klucevsek was to me on a musical and human level. I'm going to post a thread of a few favorites here, which seems like a pretty paltry gesture, but people of bluesky need to know this man's greatness.

RIP Guy Klucevsek. New on TT, the definitive interview from Anthony Creamer, originally published on DTM in 2019. iverson.substack.com/p/tt-519-int...

It's finally done!📝 In this blog post, I apply my theory of an archaeological gameworld mental model to Blue Prince, and argue that half the fun of the game is in what happens off-screen: florencesmithnicholls.com/2025/06/03/d...

If you make me president of your university, I will find millions in cost savings by force-quitting shady EdTech contracts, & I will spend it all by giving faculty an annual budget to buy course books for their students.
