It's me, hi, I'm the one screaming "LOG OFF", it's me
He/him. UK. I occasionally make EBM/industrial music as Trellick. I hate fascists & bigots and post angrily about that sort of thing
Pinned
Do you like EBM? I've released some more EBM as Trellick. It's hot, it's sweaty, it's great. And there's even a remix by @digitalgeist.com to get things even hotter!

It's PWYW on BC trellick.bandcamp.com/album/muscle... or find it on your streaming service of choice #ebm #electronicbodymusic

It's important for every couple to have several Incidents that they refer to in very foreboding tones such that people don't know if any discussion of The Incident will be a horrifying nearly relationship-shattering revelation or a slow build to a low stakes ridiculous joke

yes yes we all know about the Edmund Fitzgerald, rest her soul, but did you know about the ship laden with explosives that sank in the mouth of the Thames in 1944 and could explode at any minute and which attempts to disarm keep failing

trust is neither given nor earned. it forms naturally between people who share the experience of having listened to Skinny Puppy at or after 3 am in the dark by themselves

To mark the 50th anniversary of the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald we were GOING to cover something by Tiffany, but Gordon Lightfoot's "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" is a bit more apropos. There's also a remix!

PAY WHAT YOU WANT and spread the word!

This is pretty cool. If you'd told people in the early 2010s that Charli XCX would work with John Cale on a track from her soundtrack to an adaptation of Wuthering Heights, they'd have thought you were crazy youtu.be/Xgp7wlBfASA?...

I think the funniest thing about the BBC shitstorm is that the simplest thing that any news org could do would be to include Trump speeches or transcripts unedited, so they were openly incoherent babbling rather than understandable soundbites, and most won't even do _that_

yay, more slop! also the chaser in the article is what "Kent residents Hannah and Paul George" were opposed to, just going to go ahead and make some assumptions there

I saw a random reddit comment where someone theorized that Pennywise and Mary Poppins were the same species of primordial psychic entity, but Pennywise feeds on fear while Poppins feeds on joy. both of them eat kid emotions because fear and joy are more intense in kids. This is Canon for me now.

I am so sick of hearing about Dubai. I don't ever want to go. I went to the airport once on a stopover and the airport was a gigantic shopping mall and I was told "the rest of the place is just like that n all". Stop trying to make me go there, all ads. I don't wanna go on holiday to a slavery land!

absolutely laughing my ass off at the idea that the BBC wasn't already far enough to the right

It is going to get so much worse for people who don't understand that it's propaganda and a radicalisation tool

tried playing Banished, which I bought in a Steam sale at some point. It was really fun and had a kinda nice aesthetic.

Right up until the second winter and every further winter whereupon it rapidly became a death spiral that I couldn't escape from no matter how much I tried

seeking a partner by toning down your eccentricities to become more palatable is a coward's approach. you must make yourself worse & stranger to drive away the weak, the romantic version of bequeathing your haunted mansion to whoever dares spend a night within its walls.
