I've a new little 2 track EP coming out in the coming days.
It's angry, it's aggressive and it's appropriately titled "DOOM".

If you would like to hear it as soon as it comes out on your preferred platform, you can pre-save it here: distrokid.com/hyperfollow/...

I seem to remember there being a thing in France in the late 90s to mid 2000s where they wanted to get the birth rate up.
So when you went to pubs there'd be soft porn on the TVs.
At least that was the explanation I got at the time.

Giant Drags cover of Wicked Game is up there. I loved Hounds of Love by The Future heads.
Despite their leanings, Elbows version of August and September by The The is exceptional.

The funniest thing about this, to me, is someone saying "towards the end of the story" about One Piece.

Sharon @sharonk.bsky.social · 3d

thiel, man, what the fuck are you talking about

He describes the plot of Watchmen, a 1986 graphic novel involving superheroes grappling with moral questions about humanity against the backdrop of impending nuclear war:

The antihero Ozymandias, the antichrist-type figure, is sort of an early-modern person. He believes this will be a timeless and eternal solution – eternal world peace. Moore is sort of a late-modern. In early modernity, you have ideal solutions, ‘perfect’ solutions to calculus. In late modernity, things are sort of probabilistic. And at some point, he asks Dr Manhattan whether the world government is going to last. And he says that ‘nothing lasts forever.’ So you embrace the antichrist and it still doesn’t work.

Thiel later finds biblical meaning in the manga One Piece, discussing how he believes it represents a future where an antichrist-like one-world government has repressed science. He believes that the hero, Monkey D Luffy, represents a Christlike figure.

In One Piece, you are set in a fantasy world, again sort of an alternate earth, but it’s 800 years into the reign of this one-world state. Which, as the story unfolds, gradually gets darker and darker. You sort of realize, in my interpretation, who runs the world and it’s something like the antichrist. There’s Luffy, a pirate who wears a red straw hat, sort of like Christ’s crown of thorns. And then towards the end of the story, transforms into a figure who resembles Christ in Revelation.

Thiel, along with a researcher and writer at Thiel Capital, explored these ideas at greater length in an essay for the religious journal First Things earlier this month.

What an unfortunate surname for someone writing a puff piece about Trump.

Started into the new Taylor Swift album.
It starts quite strong. First 3 songs have their strengths. The Fate of Ophelia is clearly just Mercy by Duffy though.

Then the next 2 songs are far weaker. Ballads are mealy mouthed.

I'm sorry but you'd swear she was a film star or a pop icon or something and not just some obnoxious middle-class berk who you'd hop in a half-full skip to avoid talking to.

I have it on good authority that Rodney Owl is a bit of a legend and an incredible musician, so this good advice.

Also good thread generally, worth a read

Mike Sowden @mikeachim.bsky.social · 9d

Also, Rodney Owl (the original poster and participant in the scheme) is a musician: linktr.ee/rodneyowl?ut... In these days of most musicians struggling so hard to scrape a living from a pittance of streaming income, do they deserve help like this? HELL YES. So great.

So, is the Gavin thing like a Beetlejuice scenario? But more efficient?

Just say the name once and you'll have some passive aggressive person in the replies arguing about how he should be president actually.

Of the wrong country of course, but still.

The best competitive game that ever came out on Xbox was 1 vs. 100.

The original Battle Royale (If you discount the movie Battle Royale).

This is the truth. I've been saying it for years.

Figure out the song, then end it. Fade outs suck.

Hannah @policyhannah.bsky.social · 13d

New Lamb of God is a bit different, not bad!

It does end with a fade out though, which we all know is the cowards way of ending a song...
