Looks like Night Tapes is coming to Austin. Unfortunately on Halloween so I can’t go due to playing a set.
Probably just as well bc with my luck they’d play Leave it All Behind, Mike and I’d ruin my makeup.

In a utopian alternate reality, the library format used by dj flash drives has been standardized and venues run equipment made by a variety of manufacturers, not just Pioneer/AT.
You know, kind of like how records tend to work on any turntable.

Burning your popcorn is a good way to make sure you don’t eat the whole thing.
Or at least it helps.

Sometimes I post the most unhinged shit on Reddit and think about how there’s more than enough info on there to doxx me, and the only thing standing in the way is the flimsiest of auto generated usernames.

Finally, after all these years, I think I finally properly *get* Stoneproof - Everything’s Not You.
Maybe that’ll get back in the trance rotation now.

Ok so artists at now releasing tracks on 3”-4” vinyl. Cute right? It’s the music you love on little baby records!
Except how does one listen to these?

Tiny Vinyl is a new pocketable record format for the Spotify age
Format is “more aligned with how artists are making and releasing music in the streaming era.”…

This is a real photograph of Washington, DC this week, where the United States president has ordered military occupation in peacetime, and ordered the display of colossal portraits of himself.

God effing dammit why did that shooter have to be trans. 😭
And naturally that’s what everyone is going to latch onto. Not that two innocent children are dead, but that the shooter was trans.

Brief review of the Numark CC-1 DJ phono cartridge:
Not great, not terrible.
I haven’t had a cart that needed 5g in 20 years.
Good for beginners, IMO. Just fine for timecode. No good for scratching.
I’m using them to teach vinyl mixing and they’re good for that bc cheap stylus when they break. 👍

Against my better judgment I will now throw more money at this deck by way of High Seas cards.

I feel you. My Maxx deck has yet to do anything besides get pounded into the ground. It’s never even been close.

I actually wrote the copy for Slippy's Armory Deck, and I can tell you that the it/its pronouns are deliberate... To me it seemed the obvious choice for the character and they let me do it.

If someone asks you if you use a lot of sarcasm, is it even possible for them to get a useful yes/no answer?

It’s nearly 1am and I’m trying to sleep and someone is making popcorn. The smell is keeping me awake.

I think I may have finally hit Acceptance for the Aurora LL. I just realized it’s kind of a relief that people don’t threaten flipping the table anymore when CLV, Arc Lightning, and Flicker Wisp all show up at once. #fabtcg
