I'm listening to Grin by Coroner and it's a solid album despite all the differing opinions I've heard of it over the years. I think the reason why it works is because it's clear that Coroner wanted to try a more industrial style and were passionate about it.

I miss the days when the only things named after tolkien characters were black metal bands and dungeon synth projects. Now every malicious rich fuck has an evil company named after something from tolkien.

I'm not doing 2025 achievements b/c the last few years, I've realized putting my self-worth into achievements, time markers, etc is so unhealthy

I had a dream that Andy LaRocque tried to take my melatonin gummies from me. A lot more stuff happened in that dream but that's the main thing I remember.

This is probably the most cheerful sounding song I've ever heard about how the church manipulates people. Nearly sounds like something from a Disney movie. Still an absolute banger though.

I've been trying to explain in words what exactly it is that makes Heavy Load's music so appealing to me, and I think a part of it is that it sounds so mellow yet energetic and motivating at the same time. www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBl8...

I really hope we get to a point in society where we don't have to defend being trans, or gay, or bi or w/e by saying that people are born that way. I hope we can get to a point where it's simply ok to be those things no matter what, even if you DID choose it.
