Tip for any ambitious capitalist out there. You know what there’s going to be an ENORMOUS market for in the near future? Authentic human expression. Most normal people fucking hate AI slop and there’s already emerging a significant backlash against it.
According to Hiatus Kaiyote bassist Paul Bender, this AI scam problem is “symbolic of how little these tech people give a fuck about actual music and the people who make it.”

Kudos to the lighting design at the Post Animal show last week at Majestic in Madison, WI.

Guy on the boards said he was learning the ropes.

Looked like the northern lights a few weeks back.

When consuming the world through a 6 inch piece glass and metal, it’s hard to discern what’s AI made.

Instead, actively participate in physical reality (sans device) and connect with the makers of the things you buy directly.

This deepens our bonds to each other and is often fun as hell.

Under WI GOP rule the last 25ish years, the village I was raised in has been stripped for parts and their labor sold at rock bottom prices.

This is the Tea Party + MAGA end game for small town WI.

It doesn’t end well.

2025 is what happens when we let a leader run America like a business.

It’s desperate, sad and embarrassing for every person who put him in power and continues to support him.

If you voted for this, it’s a good time to grow up, own your decision and help clean this mess up.

The healthcare systems in my area the last 12 years focused on making hospitals look/feel like Apple Stores.

People are more important than glass/wood/metal facilities and half assed tech stacks from price gouging third party vendors.

Frankenstein’s Monster, YouTube sketch.

Just saw Del Toro’s Frankenstein.

I enjoyed it. Great nod to Bernie Wrightson’s Frankenstein and aesthetics.

This movie will definitely confuse people who haven’t read the original Frankenstein story by Mary Shelley though.
