I'm going to try and not repeat artists, because it's more interesting that way, but I also clearly have favorite artists, so I don't know!

For the 2.6 of you that might care, been thinking of posting an ambient/field recording/concrète album per day for November. One that has not only survived in my library but insists on itself through many years in a very wide field. Music that barely moves but makes sense of the air around me.

Would be cool if the people who yelled loudly about debunked lab leak conspiracy theories cared as much about stopping the spread of an ongoing pandemic or the next one. Wear masks, get vaccinated, be safe.

I still think it's an overt attempt to drive people to "loot" for the optics of sending the army into cities, and to rope in arrests for slave labor to fill in for a disappearing undocumented workforce.

I haven’t seen it yet, although I’d really like to, because I am anxious about PT Anderson– a fascinated stylist– writing and creating black characters and militants.
There was hope, still, because his films usually spotlight Rotted & Difficult White Men. But this is exactly what I was afraid of.

Just saw a post I swear I saw 3 weeks ago with *identical* replies and now I am... unsettled? Scully-brain is trying to pick it apart: What synapses are misfiring, what am I actually remembering? If I saw the future, why is it important and how depressing is it that it was doomscrolling?

Boy, North Carolina Republicans sure don't want the attached story to circulate. I sure hope that this stupid threat from their spokesperson doesn't boomerang on them and have a lot more people read and share the story, which once again, is conveniently attached below. That would be a shame.

At least 3,000 people who have been detained in Chicago ICE raids are missing from official DHS records.

We still don’t know what happened to the 1200 people who went missing from the Everglades facility.

They’re disappearing people.

No due process. No accountability.

Could ICE have 'lost' 3,000 immigrant arrestees in Chicago?

At least 3,000 jailed immigrants have vanished from federal records, according to human rights attorneys and organizations.

Update: Luigi Mangione wouldn't stop listening to Taylor Swift in prison and the other inmates have revoked his Taylor swift privileges and forced him to listen to inmate approved music lmao

Luigi Mangione elaborates he got in trouble with other inmates after someone told him they like that he listens to Taylor Swift. He doesn't, so he decided to try listening to Taylor Swift, found a song he liked (Cardigan) and the other inmates made him change it to Lil Durk
