This is the full SuperCollider synth running in a browser, high-performance and with an OSC API. Hard to overstate how powerful that is, and it's just the beginning.. Incredible work by @samaaron.bsky.social ...

Momus covering neofolk seems such a great idea it's odd to think it never happened before. Gorgeous take on Current 93's "All The World Makes Great Blood"

Man who owes his career to lazy provocation hates the very idea of consequences for sexual assault.
This is what male solidarity & collective action to oppress women looks like:

Artist Andres Serrano--successful, but nowhere near the same class as Thiel & other billionaires in the files--stating that he'll vote for Trump, despite his politics, out of *sympathy* with T's sexual assaults on women.

For a moment I read this headline as being about a competition over who joins the band Crowded House.

We are at a point where the vice-President can claim that one of the most widely used and tested medications is "useless" because disregard for science is seen as a virtue.
JD Vance calls ibuprofen "useless medication" and implies it's not "necessary, safe and effective."

1/ The old Ken Lay defense where “I deserve all this money* and power and influence because no one else can do what I do” meets “uWu don’t blame me I’m a smol brain boy we all make mistakes whomst among us..”

*remember he’s technically the head of a nonprofit
There is something beautiful about this opening.

@informor.bsky.social @stechlab-labels.bsky.social is there a way to vote on removing the labels - a kind of community verification? E.g. seeing the warnings about frequent posting from major press outlets. Assume this is in the works?

1/ As much as I still think it was a mistake to back down for a liar’s promise of a vote doomed to fail regardless, let’s not ignore that this admin moved repeatedly to hurt the most vulnerable people in the country to get their way.

1/ Get really annoyed by this. There’s being critical of AIPAC and there’s “surely the US had nothing wrong with it before Israel and if we could just get rid of that one small group that controls everything then…” see where it goes?
Positioning Zionism as a Special Corrupting Outside Force on the American body politic — rather than a bog-standard (if unusually successful!) ethnonationalist lobby — is an antisemitic argument. And as a non-zionist Jew I am not going to run cover for it

you piss off the activist crowd - lib & left want you to fight

for less engaged voters, it's not a coherent story to constantly ping-pong between "trump is a threat to democracy" & "we need to come together & compromise with republicans"

even if there's maybe some tactical thing, or even if uniform opposition doesn't change the end result, it's still much better from a communication standpoint

at very best, it's unclear what message we're supposed to take from this selective cave

the idea that they'd cave for the "promise" of a future vote that will never happen, *right* after sweeping election wins that demonstrated clearly that people are (correctly) blaming Rs for this shutdown.
Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

Senate update: Republicans are now trying to sneak a backdoor national abortion ban into their government funding bill. Republicans will stop at nothing to control women's health care decisions.

incredible that these guys have a massive hard on for a country that, if it were a state, would rank behind kansas in terms of wealth and which would be a total backwater if it weren’t economically integrated with more functional countries

how is anyone buying this hurricane of bullshit from MTG about moderating? Conveniently timed right after T shot down her Senate ambitions and a blue wave election.
