6/30/24.

I first heard of 14 Iced Bears (London, England) around the same time I heard about The June Brides. Both were part of the C86 movement back in the 1980s. I found a retrospective CD at 1-2-3-4 Go! Records years ago and I eventually bought the Aberdeen/14 Iced Bears/June Brides LP.

Now Precious Recordings gives us TWO Peel Sessions from the 1980s. When listening to this,I can't help but think of bands like San Francisco's Chime School who have a new LP coming soon. In fact, I might as well create a listening bar:

how do garak and bashir feel about being grandparents?, also since theres a third elim (3lim) ((if i read tht right,,,,)

garak and bashirs parenting styles are reversed for grandparenting. julian's a total sap for his grandkids, taking them on trips and buying them elaborate educational toys. garak is the reserved victorian grandfather smoking a pipe in the study talking about The Old Days and ordering them around (especially in the garden, his knees aren't what they used to be.)

Bashir is still annoyed at the passage of time seeing fit to give his children (who, in his mind, are still kids) children of their own. Rude!

ranking yakuza games on how much i cried:

1: gaiden (the ending made me cry more then ive ever cried in my life i sobbed my eyes out and have myself a headache and was physically drained for a day and a half bc of how much i cried and couldn't sleep and teared up ten other times in the playthrough and the game was only 5 chapters and also even thinking abt the ending makes me tear up)

2: Yakuza 5 (the ending gave me a terrible headache and i cried like a lot during the game but not as bad as gaiden)

3 yakuza 0 (cried so much but i never gave myself a headache from crying)

4: yakuza like a dragon (cried so much at the end i have myself a headache, teared up a decent amount throughout but only the end made me actually sob)

5: yakuza 6 (was fine until the ending of the game where i cried pretty hard kiryu's letter really got to me 😭)

6: yakuza 3 (was pretty much okay but that one scene with kiryu crying actually made me sob so hard)

7: yakuza kiwami (teared up quite a few times, karaoke and the ending made me fully cry)

8: yakuza kiwami 2 (cried in the majima saga and at karaoke again)

9 yakuza 4 (i didn't cry or tear up once)

Internet Archive just sent me an email reminding me they have tons of free audiobooks and uh I figured I should pass the message along.

The Internet Archive has tons of free audiobooks

Universal Access to All Knowledge for the win!

2/21/24.

I was listening to the excellent new LP from False Tracks today and it made me think of this long lost LP from Oakland-based band Lenz. Lenz was active in the early 2010s - well before the Bay Area blew up as the musical mecca it is now considered.

As I was listening to Lenz and loving it's Television influenced sound, I realized that R.E. Seraphin was a member of the band. Seraphin popped up recently due to the fact that he is releasing a new LP via UK label Safe Suburban Home. Seraphin states that he is influenced by Green on Red - and I can see that somewhat hidden in the music of Lenz.

"Way To End A Day" was released by Oakland music store/label 1-2-3-4 Go Records. They had an excellent single on Sacramento label S-S Records.

having big thoughts about Sideshow's first two arcs that will mean having to majorly rewrite both of them despite being almost finished w/ the games first draft script......but also these big thoughts are making me recognize fucking HUGE plotholes that i had conveniently ignored the first time around, so again, it feels like needed changes

Dentist today. Crying screaming and throwing up

Part of me wants to be annoyed but at this point I find it kind of funny. Back when I was trying to get into art business with photomanipulation/photobashing, I had followed so many people and there was never a single opportunity I could grasp cause nb was looking for artists of my kind OR artists of my level (cause I'm average leveled still). Ever since I stopped trying to make new stuff, I always come across posts of studios or big projects either for artists of any kind, not just drawing artists, or that have a side opportunity for less professional artists that are perhaps still learning and wish to expand. Good one, life. I hope you enjoy laughing at me with each one.

Friends!

Are you feeling hopeless in the face of the oncoming MAGA-pocalypse? Want to do something fast, easy, and free that will make a difference?

If you're in Michigan, keep reading! If you're not, signal boost this to your Mitten State Mutuals!

Michiganders, it's time to contact your state reps and tell them to vote YES on HB 6034 and HB 6035. Together, these two bills comprise the Freedom to Read Act and they severely limit the ability of assholes to ban books in the state of Michigan.

Want to read the bills for yourself? Click here:

https://www.legislature.mi.gov/Search/ExecuteSearch?sessions=2023-2024&docTypes=House%20Bill,Senate%20Bill&contentFullText=%22freedom%20to%20read%22

Tl;dr? Here's an article and video summarizing the Act from CBS News:

Not sure how to contact your Michigan state representatives? Text RESIST to 50409 and Resistbot will walk you through it.

It's easy, it takes about 5 minutes, and you can do it from your couch/bed/puddle of despair.

Tips for contacting elected officials:

1) If you're asking them to vote YES or NO on something, say that in the first line. Bonus points if you can tag the actual bill (HB/House Bill) number.

2) Only include ONE issue per communication.

3) 1&2 are because these are being skimmed by interns who keep a running tally of what each communication is about. One communication = one point.

3a) Don't be a dick to the interns. Their lives are hard enough.

4) Keep it short. One sentence very clearly stating what you want. One or two sentences about why they should care about what you want ("As a resident of your district, I know you agree that SOMETHING SOMETHING FREEDOM, SOMETHING SOMETHING LIBERTY, SOMETHING SOMETHING THINK OF THE CHILDREN.") Appeal to the person they claim to be in their campaign ads. Get it, give them clear instructions, get out.

5) No profanity.

6) No threats.

7) No memes/ slang/ sarcasm/ lols. You are cosplaying as someone who thinks salt is too spicy and whose greatest joy in life is sorting their collection of plain white socks.

8) 5, 6, & 7 are because anything you communicate to an elected official will become a matter of public record. It goes into a file. And if anyone ever pulls that file, you want to be on record as the most boring, conscientious, polite, non-threatening motherfucker who ever lived.

Now go forth and make your voice heard!

(Hey @unpretty and @official-michigan-posts, can you help get the word out?)
