the australian housing crisis is so grim and i’m really really pissed off about it. shelter as a profitable asset is one of the most twisted inventions we’ve made for ourselves and it needs to end. so long as people are on the street or in rental stress we should be trying to solve that immediately

The defamatory statements Zaum gave to PMG about myself and Dora Klindžić in the latest Disco Elysium follow-up story left me with no other choice than to disprove them with hard evidence. This is what really happened in Zaum between June 2022 and Feb 2024:

If you only listen to one new song off the new Montaigne album (why would you do that? listen to the whole thing! @actualmontaigne.bsky.social is fucking cool as hell it's like someone threw Bjork into a gay nerdy youthful blender) then at least make it this one it's SO good

Not surprisingly, freed of the dead hand of a major with head up its arse, @actualmontaigne.bsky.social has ventured further into a sea of pop music adventure (tunes! odd shapes! revelations!) while navigating a less than ideal family situation. Good record ensues
