I run 4 miles most days and I usually post about whatever I listened to while I did that.

AEW, movies, TV, internet, outdoor things, theatre, mathcore/cybergrind/postpunk etc.

I teach physics, earth & space, and physical science.

The kids have brainrot memes that are basically random noises at this point but also, I have shit like "Urkel Veneration" and "going out like Stan Chera" and "thrown out of 'Beetlejuice' for vaping and jacking a guy off" floating around in mine from following politics, so I'm not necessarily ahead.

I tried to run yesterday but there was so much ice that i ended up averaging like 12:30/mile, being in the road more than I'd like, having to climb over/go around shit etc and its like 9 today, so I don't anticipate it improving right away.

Inasmuch as there's a dispossessed patriarch element to the incel phenomenon, I could see open source human cloning filling that demand.
Like, above a certain income bracket you just have a looksmaxxed version of yourself. Decent number of women probably'd do it too.
Progeny'd be fucked up though.

Iced out of both school and running for a week, during which I've managed to ignore portfolio shit but, I got 3 instrumental demos done which has allowed me to start rehearing vocals again. It's giving me a headache as I get back in shape, but it's like calluses with guitar; ya gotta suffer some.

Playing "Metroid Prime 4" and "Doom Eternal" next to each other really lays bare how boring the combat is in the former. Like, the lack of both variety and tactics is depressing. Last boss fight has some interesting bits, but Doom has almost as many types of fodder as Metroid has enemies period.

Went to the dispensary the other day and a lady who was already there ahead of me was explaining the federal reserve to the security guy and, based on what I heard on "it could happen here" last week, it kinda hung together and kinda didn't but anyhoo; turns out that was Marie Gluesenkamp Perez.

Wasn't Thekla's night, but this was one of those matches that lets you know that it will be soon. 🤼‍♂️

Against smoke and rubber bullets
In the dawn’s early light
Citizens stood for justice
Their voices ringing through the night
And there were bloody footprints
Where mercy should have stood
And two dead left to die on snow-filled streets

One of my favorite skramzy bands ever; ideal jazz + hardcore mixture. Tricky and cool and mathy but bare knuckled and vocally shredded. Also, as a punk musician the generation behind these guys, it's inspiring to see them still play these songs with this much commitment and joy.

I can't believe we got:

"People in SF are putting multi-agent Claudeswarms in charge of their lives."

and

"Jestermaxxing at the club is the new meta." in the same week.

Cathedrals everywhere etc.

My favorite running joke on "The Pitt" is Whitaker getting jizzed all over by something at least once an episode.

Incredible mix on the live parts of this interspersed with a disarmingly sweet, insightful interview. www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-6O...

What the fuck are we even doing here?
Here's a video of ICU nurse Alex Pretti in 2024 honoring a deceased veteran. This is the kindhearted man that DHS is trying to portray as a monster to justify their murder of him.

RIP Alex Pretti 💔

Interesting because bandcamp is in a similar position to the Dems in that everything else is either worse or not meaningfully accessible, but they’re still slugs in their own right, so it’s telling where they draw the line on The Horrors because it reveals where they think their consumer value lies.
Another way to tell if your favorite artist is using AI: they suddenly stop releasing on Bandcamp while all their older tracks are still there. Why? Bandcamp has started removing AI content. So if a track shows up on Spotify but not on Bandcamp, odds are it’s AI generated.

I haven’t gotten into a med show before but I’m 4 eps into “The Pitt” and I’m enjoying it tremendously; I took IG off my shit recently cause there was too much ai slop and this is refreshingly the opposite, something that makes me pay attention to humans acting in human and complicated ways.
