Probably fucked that I've eaten a whole sheet of Panamax in 36 hours and the joint pain is returning with a vengeance right on the 4hrs mark but like. Idk it's probably fine right my doctor wants me to get scans for carpal tunnel but like. It's probably nothing? She's a great doctor I really trust her but like. There's nothing to worry about right

And my God of Rebellion said to me:

"Fear not, my little agent of chaos, not all were made to withstand your beautiful storm."

batfam idea.

Bruce has the meme comprehension skills of a retirement home resident, and out of spite, the majority of his sidekicks decide to randomly quote memes when he's in the room to confuse him.

Dick, watching Damian throw knives at his siblings: What's better than this? Guys being dudes.

Jason, slamming open the door to the manor: I LIVED, BITCH.

Tim, being asked to read files for a case: What up, I'm Jared, I'm 19, and I never fucking learned how to read.

Damian, finally giving up and saying a quote so Tim will leave him alone: ...Look at all these chickens.

Steph, as Cass plays Darude Sandstorm on a kazoo in the background: That's all she really does, ever since she brought that five dollar kazoo.

Duke, watching Jason and Tim fight: Can I get a waffle? Can I please get a waffle?

Alfred, having been taught memes, watching the kids fucking around: Whoever threw that paper, your mom's a hoe.

Warrior Cats Audiobooks, but every time someone says "Sandstorm" (after she gets renamed from Sandpaw), a small piece of Darude's Sandstorm plays faintly in the background

[tierra-paldeana]

Okay, but you should totally have Darude- Sandstorm play in the background when people challenge you.

My favorite moment tonight was the end of the session. We’re being attacked by Ravers and I said “And Sandstorm by Darude starts playing in the background” and my table ground to a halt for a solid minute and a half because everyone was mad at me or couldn’t stop laughing.

crazy part about getting "runner's high" or experiencing an intense emotional release in spin class is that i'll be euphoric or crying in a room full of people and darude sandstorm is playing in the background. or lately it's been erika vikman's cicciolina which is a slightly tacky finnish song about sex.

accidental video with Sister - Club Mix x Darude - Sandstorm playing in the background 😭

Darude Sandstorm plays in the background #y2k2

a failed update from billion-dollar cybersecurity firm crowdstrike has crashed windows machines worldwide today (july 19th 2024), leaving everything from airport terminals to checkout machines to delivery apps to banks stuck with a blue screen of death. here's a screenshot from downdetector (au) to illustrate:

the issue appears to be with crowdstrike falcon, a form of antivirus software widely used in the corporate world -- with emphasis on the world. there have been reports from the us, uk, australia, germany, india, france, japan and more. places affected include (but are not limited to) supermarkets, banks, basically every airline, public transport networks, major broadcasters, emergency services, corporate offices, healthcare providers and stock exchanges.

(woolies pic via archiestaines9 on twitter; s3pirion; akothari. yes that is masahiro sakurai of smash bros fame)

emergency service lines are currently experiencing problems within the american states of alaska, arizona, indiana, minnesota, new hampshire and ohio. similar problems likely plague other areas of the world, they just haven't been reported on yet. australian emergency services are operating, and critical infrastructure remains stable. be sure to check in with the local news stations still online for more updates.

welcome to y2k............................. 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Top 10 instrumental songs. Go!

Hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, okay... let me try this. Also, sorry if you meant like JUST ~real instruments and no electronic stuff included. I did try going more instrument-sounding and not just pure synthization, so like "Strobe" by Deadmau5 isn't here despite me loving the track. But like... there are things are are clearly synthetic here. Sorry. Was tempted to put "Sandstorm" by Darude anyways. Or cheat and put instrumental versions of songs, like "Every Night" by Exid which does actually have a really fun vocal-less version (if you don't mind being alarmed by a dial tone sound).

God, I know it's cheap to go for this song of all Ryuichi Sakamato songs but it's the first I ever heard by him (thanks Utada) and so... "Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence." Achingly, deceptively simple-sounding. It conveys both aching and urgency.

"Your Hand in Mine" Explosions in the Sky. I use the term "cinematic" to describe music a lot but I think it really fits here. Like this is a track that plays during the trailer for an indie movie that blows everyone's tits off.

"Tocatta & Fugue in D Minor" specifically by Vanessa Mae. Her violin plus the more electronic sensibilities really feels electrifying.

"Viridis Quo" by Daft Punk. Galactic, otherworldly, a beat that syncs into your bones and rests behind your eyes.

"Sadness & Sorrow" from Naruto. It is sadness and it IS sorrow! Iconic.I couldn't find who originally performed the song? SHould look deeper for that. Guren by Yasuharu Takanashi is also a great, haunting track from the Naruto OST.

"Keeping the Blade" by Coheed & Cambria. Haunting. Feels like witnessing a forbidden love story and watching them fight to stay together. Without any words spoken.

"Wu Ji" by Lin Hai. All versions. Yes, it is from the Untamed. And yes it is beautiful!

"Ego Death" by Polyphia. Very different from other tracks on my list, this is guitar shredding. This is drum kits. This is bad ass.

"Aruarian Dance" by Nujabes. Would be wrong to not include Nujabes when his music was so... instrumental to my taste in music.

"Khun" by Kevin Penkin & Ben Matthews. Kick ass jazzy piano with a great overlay of... grainy (?) sound.

"Always You" by Malta. Great jazzy sound. Couldn't think of a song to kick off this list but needed to include this one.

I feel like a lot of these aren't really what people mean when tehy ask for instrumental? They normally mean more like... Yann Tiersen but my instrumental go tos are more Toconoma or like... the sims soundtrack. Or electronic fare like She.

If you were looking for instrumental music to put on while you write/study, maybe listen to the Imogen Heap collab album "Chordata Bytes." Or even the Tron: Legacy soundtrack by Daft Punk. They're kinda non-intrusive instrumentals, while Polyphia might be more distracting. Or try "Sharratt" by Bibio! I find songs with a ~looping sound, lots of repetition, are good for like taking over the background while you work.

Mac + Jack + Sandstorm

Mac liked to think he had a handle on a lot of things in his life, a lot of things he could control or manipulate for the better. Natural disasters didn’t happen to be one of those things

Or

Mac and Jack roll over an IED

Jocks as Things I've witnessed real people Doing in Real Life

(now with all the heroes)

Kim: threw himself off a lunch table during the Halloween costume contest to do a crowd surf but no one caught him and he got a concussion

Alix: chugged a litre of chocolate milk on the hottest day of the summer and then tried to run around the track

Kagami: walked in with two friends in cloaks, went by the Halloween section, then had a fake sword fight to the death in the furniture section

Max: hacked the school announcements and played the bill Nye theme

Chloe: ended a law class debate by saying the kid she was arguing against was another reason abortion should not only be legal but mandatory

Marinette: went on a biology trip only to get swarmed by the butterflies in the garden and have to sit out

Nathaniel: drew his entire D&D group as Sailor Scouts, with the DM as Tuxedo Mask

Juleka: drew their retiring teacher a fursona, then decided to commission a real furry artist for real art of it, and handed it to the teacher framed

Luka: used a violin as a bow for the cello. Don't ask me how I'm still so fucking confused by it like I'm still genuinely amazed at how the fuck he managed it. He played Despacito

Sabrina: dared the visiting cop to the law class to a pushup contest and won

Adrien: did a poi bolla routine to Darude Sandstorm in front of the entire grade, not realizing it was a meme. He got a full standing ovation

Lila: threatened to puke on command, on the instructor, if he called her "sweetie" again

Nino: sat on his porch dressed as Uncle Ian from Alvin and the Chipmunks, with his two best friends, also dressed as Uncle Ian, and challenged kids to sing for Halloween candy

Alya: was asked to print posters to promote the save the bees lemonade booth and made the background buff Barry Bee making out with Vanessa

Pig: broke their wrist and asked the doctor if he could cast their hand in the Live Long and Prosper hand symbol from Star Trek

Ox: saw someone bullying their friend so when Halloween came around, they handed everyone a homemade caramel apple, only the bully's was an onion.

Rooster: saw someone eating a pop tart untoasted and said "wow you eat then raw too?"
