It's not about if Horses is good or if you like it, it's about the world we're in where a few companies have control over who gets to make money and which artists get to continue working.
Stores can stock whatever they want, but if you don't understand the broader picture you shouldn't speak.

I love to wake up and open palm slam the social media icon on my jumbo iPad to fire off a post like "Yucky stuff in my 'art'? No thx!!" before swearing upon God and country that I believe in the innate personhood of the Mastercard corporation

Cleaning up my old skeets so I can Professional Post on here more often, and have been reminded of the era when I got absolutely blitzed and live posted my way through episodes of MILF Manor

Instead of posting a context-less wrap up, maybe we all just drop our top album and why we liked it instead. You know, so it's interesting to other people?
I was still on AG Cook's Britpop- a massive triple album on the past, present, and future of hyperpop featuring inventive synth patches

I think 2026 has to be a back to basics year where I explicitly skip dreck and only engage with weird and experimental art.

Yesterday, the Epic Games Store decided at the last minute not to distribute the game, after having previously approved a release build. HORSES is otherwise now available on GOG, Itch, and Humble for $4.99. www.horses.wtf

I've been reading a lot of cromulent genre fiction and I can see how people get addicted to reading garbage as a hobby.

Yesterday was a crazy day for sicko games. Demonschool came out (and is great), but also Birdcage (the best Radiant Silvergun-like since Radiant Silvergun), and Sektori -- the Tetris Effect of Geometry Wars.
