I think, personally, that the definition of humanity is the drive to create. Maybe it’s art, maybe it’s engineering, maybe it’s community, maybe it’s teaching, maybe it’s discovery. Something in us wants to push forward and it’s the most beautiful thing

Can anyone in Texas pick one of these up for me (this is like, 30% joking)
If you have the space, means and collection: a northern Texas warehouse full of proto-Redbox VHS vending machines from the mid-1980s is being evicted. The machines are free and whatever isn't taken will imminently be scrapped.

Ok now I have all of this song done except for lyrics (mostly done) and bassline (partly done I think but I need to record the guitar part or something and fuck around with it) and I actually maybe just need some people to come play instruments

Six Feet Under and nothing is close
Given that apparently the Stranger Things finale was meh (idk, didn't watch it, just the scuttlebutt) and we're not that far removed from the disastrous GOT finale that retroactively made everyone have never cared about the show:

Was having this thought the other day about how much I really enjoy IKEA and Costco, and realizing that they’re companies that mostly seem concerned with selling decent things at decent prices and paying their employees fairly. Just stuff that used to be accepted as basic company functions
we simply do not talk enough about how much of modern capitalism has pivoted away from providing goods and services in exchange for money and into inconveniencing and harassing people with fees, surcharges, and delayed invoicing for long enough that they give you money just to make it stop

The all-covers show started on the metal station and a song started and I thought “ahh who’s covering Gojira” nope it was Gojira covering Metallica. They have SUCH a unique sound that it carries over into everything

I actually believe this about every movie franchise that’s gone on too long. Lord of the Rings. Avengers. Hellraiser
If they’re gonna keep making these, they should rotoscope them again
