TODAY! NOW! DO IT!
We're trying something new at #ISLS2026- Erica and I are organizing an arts-based track for submissions!

We would love to see and showcase your work alongside more traditional conference submissions. And since I'm in charge, I'm going to try to get weird with it.

Gotta say though, dubbing tapes is annoying, and the 3” cdr should come back.

Forgot to post this, but two weeks ago I made physical versions of my most recent personal releases, which also happen to be the first three narecordings releases. In case of interest.

Ok, this comment is obviously incredibly stupid, but Duffy should feel double embarassed because there are so many goddamn station wagon choices in the UK. It's beautiful. So many long cars that I'm still way taller than.
Sean Duffy on slashing fuel economy standards: "This rule will actually allow you to bring back the 1970s station wagon. Maybe a little wood paneling on the side. We can bring back choice to consumers."

15 years of poptimism did this btw. We’ve accepted slop made by humans for a long time only now it’s become priority #1 for the music industry even if they have to go scorched earth in order to see the line go up.
“In 1999, I interviewed Prince for TIME and he told me to leave my tape recorder off because he didn’t trust what future technology might do with unauthorized recordings of his voice.

At the time, I thought Prince was being paranoid.”

Today's listening (which brings me up to 150 albums I've listened to and enjoyed this year)

Brendan Murray- Knucklehead Medusa

Deeeeeeeeeply subtle explorations of melody and texture. Like exploring all the nooks and crannies of your closet.

just got out of a VCCCD meeting about a resolution to ban trans women from sports (that did not pass), and i want it on the record that Simi Valley MAGA creeps were quoting stuff Gavin Newsom said on podcasts to defend their hateful garbage, like we said they would.

jingle bell rock is bull shit. you can’t just invent a thing like a “jingle horse” because it fits into your lyrics and not give us any back story.

The headline doesn't make this clear, but: the TA is trans; the student's mother has said they're targeting the TA because she is trans; TA means grad student means extra vulnerable (i.e., losing this job could mean losing her spot in her grad program); trans people are who they say they are (duh).

For me its never actually a question. It's always "here's how I would fix schools" followed by the most racist idea you have ever heard
What’s the worst question someone can ask after you tell them your profession? For linguists, it’s definitely “how many languages do you speak?”, but I’m curious what else is happening to the rest of y’all out there?!

Been years since I've spun this one. Forgot how brilliant the interplay between everyone on this album is. This incarnation was pretty damn magical.

I named my fists Mike and Susan because those are my parents names and I love them quite a bit it.
I named my fists John and Cage because you're not going to be doing anything for the next four minutes and thirty three seconds
I named my fists Chekhov and Gun because you know they're coming but you don't know when

Shoot, just realized I accidentally applied to the annual meeting of the international society of learning seances.

Anyone have any advice on asking ghosts how they learn math?
