Hey, it's been 24 hours. Where's my "Revolution Starts Now" merch on Etsy? You people spoiled me!

I actually haven't listened to Steve Earle in a while! This and, of course, Guitar Town are probably my two favorite albums. www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

That's STEVE EARLE! In STAR WARS! STEVE EARLE! "Where you work and where you play/Where you lay your money down/What you do and what you say/The revolution starts now ... In your own backyard/In your own hometown." JFC, this is amazing. #StarWars #Andor www.youtube.com/watch?v=AE4w...

Okay, everyone knows I don't believe in generational thinking or labeling ... but if I DID have one, it would be that I'm from the Suck It Up Generation.

it's absolutely wild to shitpost about yourself being a king of a country whose entire foundational story of itself is centered on overthrowing the last person who deigned to call himself king on these shores

I just learned that Daniel Roebuck, who I mainly know as the jovial host of "Halloween... The Happy Haunting of America!" (I know, he's been in lots of movies) played the killer in "River's Edge." Whoa, dude!

I love it when people think I'm catastrophizing, and then something happens worse than I predicted! Not even talking about politics today or the dumpster fire that's our future. LOL.

Pretty telling that the comparison here is “someone scolding you via a video you saw on Facebook that you found annoying” and “complete disregard for legal protections and long standing peaceful cooperation between nations”. It’s actually pretty accurate to how conservatives view the world

Brought in Dove chocolates to refill communal candy dish & instead have eaten half a bag. Then it's Norwegian waffles for supper. Uff da, as we say here.

Computer wants to add an AI Assistant to one of our programs. "Which may result in limitations, inaccuracies, or biases in the output." And they will not be held responsible for any of these outputs. So why would I want to use this service?

YouTube paused a playlist & asked if I wanted to continue, just when they started to play the Cure. Uh, hello? YES! www.youtube.com/watch?v=mKav...

I keep ranting about how if HIS FATHER had been held accountable for his crimes, we wouldn't be here.

My mental state rarely matches the ambience of my cubicle. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YpYy...

flagging! forbidden colors, forbidden symbols, visible acts of solidarity, all so necessary right now

About the current situation: "You cannot form a revolutionary mass out of depressive, disconnected individuals." (Byung-Chul Han). Ouch!

Accidentally started reading about Detroit's techno movement. www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Had a caffeinated tea this morning, and am definitely feeling more anxiety than usual today. I am doing my best to believe there isn't a correlation.

Watched the Untitled cut of Almost Famous last night, which led to this. Enjoying it a lot! www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

...check up on yo strong friends...

And now this. www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Morning editing: deciding whether "flipping him off" or "giving him the finger" sounds better in an essay.

"Today I look upon the whole of my conscious life as a series of revolts against coercion." -- Czeslaw Milosz, The Land of Ulro

Listening to Filmat Music, a radio station in Ludhiana, India. The Internet has its uses.

Just let me order these books first and then I'll get on that anti-consumerism.

Fave song from the 90s. www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDHl...

This account is too linked to my public information. I need a place I can use for screaming into the void!

Congrats to the graf artists in my town for beating last year's record!

Everytime I see a mention of Robert Eggers' upcoming "Werwulf" movie.
