Yet another tech worker who bemoans capitalism. Sorry! There are a lot of us! I help maintain fennel-lang, a smol lisp that embeds in all the things. Always trawling for new music, esp. avant-anything. He/they works 🤷

Saeko Killy - Dream In Dream (Official Music Video)

Gonna drop these as I feel like it
One of my top #experimental #synth-pop albums of 2025: #Saeko-Killy's Dream In Dream

Title track's video is neat, too. This one's more laid-back, but see Next Time & Melancholy for a hint of post-punk

me: I wish bands would make songs like how they did it in the 70s like I like new stuff too but there's no particular reason we couldn't just make NEW 70s music

Target in Minneapolis has pulled Hispanic employees off of pick-up order duty after ICE arrested two US citizen Hispanic employees while on the job.
“I’m literally a U.S. citizen!” one shouted as they escorted him into a van.

Do not let these MAGA parasites try to back track away from the bullshit that they voted for because if you do then that gives them an excuse to vote the same way again in the future.

White people thought they could stop this by just standing in the way while being white. Nah. You with us now. You’re expendable. They will have someone kneel on your neck until you perish. Then say it was your fault. Welcome.

People are right to be incensed, but there are more names to uplift. ICE killed an immigrant man named Silverio Villegas González in Chicagoland. He had children. Victor Manuel Diaz was kidnapped in Minneapolis and died in ICE custody on January 14. Their names deserve to be repeated, too.

This has been a really interesting labeler but I think I might have to turn it off because for the most part it just shows how many of my friends and people who speak truth to power are punished for it.

I know they aren't the first to do it, but in addition to all the other well-deserved accolades Zohran is getting for stuff like this, shout out to his comms team for the master class on the Aaron Sorkin Walk & Talk

ICE killing #AlexPretti should remind you of police killing #PhilandoCastille. Both men had concealed weapon permits, did not draw their guns, & were killed in Minn. These homicides are the price of unaccountable policing. These deaths are variations on the same fatal theme.
