I do enjoy it when my Shuffle play throws up a couple of bangers in a row.

Except that they don't appear to be bound by precedent anymore.

Another challenge to the so-called satirists to come up with shit more ridiculous than what actually happens.

My guess is that your other accounts have existed long enough to confirm that you're over 16.

BSky, being relatively new, doesn't have that option.

Let me know if you enjoy it. I'm always interested in how my suggestions land.

I meant to say, that release is this.

Atmospheric, melodic post-black metal... and it's amazing.
Nimue, by Domhain

The case I heard was particularly as it related to COVID kids who (were probably on SM before they were technically allowed) but used it to build a community around themselves and now that's being taken away.

Also... the whole thing was ginned up by Newscorp...

Interesting times.
December 9, 2025 at 11:07 PM
Man... I'd love to see a ban on kids interacting with LLMs.

Yes, I've heard that argument - kids now can't complain that "all my friends are on socials" as a reason why they should be allowed.

The gov't set themselves up for some tricky decisions... Roblox can be a bit of a cesspool.

I'd ignore interludes completely in the calculation.

One of my favourite releases is three tracks, clocking around 30 minutes in total.

To me, that's an EP.
December 9, 2025 at 10:56 PM
No kids here, so no skin in the game... but while the legislation was hurried and there are a bunch of questions about how it will work, I can see the benefit.

Social media is useful for some, but I think keeping forming minds off it probably helps in a broad sense.

Just to continue this non-serious discussion...

Sounds like I'm a bit harsher -- I'll call something an EP when others might call it an album.

I wonder, do the "tracks" have to be actual songs as opposed to interludes?
December 9, 2025 at 9:48 PM
I love a good EP find, but they can and do slip under the radar.

The definition of an EP is something I mull over... I kinda think six songs or fewer, but also it has to be sub 30 minutes in total length. Interested in your thoughts.

(and I just pressed Play on 'Shadow of My End')

I'm sure the streamers in question would be mortified.
December 9, 2025 at 8:36 PM
It is excellent, no doubt.

My Top X for the year got a shake-up.
December 9, 2025 at 6:53 AM
It was an honest question and you had a choice there, Ike. You could have engaged in the discussion and made your case or you could go a different way.

You made your choice.
December 9, 2025 at 2:01 AM
That was my mistake, Anthony.

I was working through stuff on my wishlist and got it mixed up with something else.

Sorry.
December 9, 2025 at 1:01 AM
You're right. I take it back.

I only found it recently - got my sources mixed up.

Thanks.

Why do you think expanding the court is a good idea?
What problem does it solve in the medium to long-term?
December 8, 2025 at 8:37 PM
I don't think adding more justices to SCOTUS helps in the long run. Better to add term limits and take the politics out of the selection process.

Citizens United and political control over district boundaries are significant catalysts for the US's current decline though.

Don't be too hard on yourself.

I think getting distracted, not finishing things and not getting to tasks that were planned are all pretty normal.
December 8, 2025 at 9:15 AM
It was obviously wishful thinking... but I just hoped that they'd put an end to some of the bullshit that both sides are always sniping at each other over - especially considering the weight of their majority.

Hey @australianlabor.bsky.social. Be better!
