I hope she chains herself to the gates of an alligator farm & live streams herself crying because the gators didn't obey her commands. croc-pog

Never. The espresso machine is already liberal + it's a huge mechanism that actually only trickles down to a tiny few, carefully proportioned.

What would an aeropress be?

No. This is primarily the state desperately playing whac-a-mole against majority public sentiment. There's basically a club of like 300-500 people in media/politics with a constituency of online racists who also hate their guts who support this stuff and just scream showers of shite about it 24/7.

It's not gone down well. They've locked everything. But old contacts from music mag stuff who are turbo-libs have been in touch going "they should sell it now" before they devalue the brand too much but also because they think they've tanked the outsider status even if Glasto will obviously keep being hugely popular and popular.

It's not though. The first two paragraphs are exactly what Id expect. The deliberate (but deliberately written by lawyers to avoid libel countersuits) conflation of antisemitism & hate speech (terms that from an institution can be used against them in court) is extremely deliberate.

Emily Eavis is sat on a £250m+ brand..

If she has to kill some of that credibility, even saw off some cultural importance, she can bail and make absurd amounts of money.

It's not empty. It's a confession for the future.

God, was it only five years ago. I feel like I've been here foreverchomsky-yes-honey

Yeah, I just meant part of the reason I haven't checked out the new ones is I keep just being satisfied dipping into the originals.

I really don't think most people appreciate just how deep and insidious the tentacles of Palantir (as the forward troops for technofascism) are.

You should. I've been saying they're one of the best and most based bands for years. The tabloid press are gonna shit when they start digging into their catalogue.

 

 

A mural in Milan dedicated to Davide "Dax" Cesare, a young militant of the ORSo community center who was stabbed in a fascist ambush, that also goes incredibly hard.

 

Hexbear could really use your powers of necromancy right now.

Genuinely radical, working-class, left unity punk with an empowerment message, who also name drop the likes of Vladimir Tatlin and aren't afraid to talk theory in interviews.

Best punk band in Britain for the last decade, hands down.

 

Ripped from the pages of that dreadful zine someone posted the Reds Under The Bed & How To Stop Them In Your Org! guide from, I present... a whiny teenage livejournal post about how mean the "left" are (which apparently also includes hardcore Zionists braying for blood) and what a terrible place it is to be for smol bean climate activists.

 

I could do like 50 of these but I have to go to sleep.

Drop me a message comrades and we'll sit on the roof...

 

Still the best Blink 182 tune they ever recorded and one of the best pop-phnk tunes of the era.

Shame Tom DeLonge got suckered into being one of the Mirage Men.

 

Look, we all get lost sometimes.

No more so that the pseuds who decided to debate whether this was actually as song about an alien or not for years.

Desert highways all look the same.

 

Perhaps the best indie rock tune about about the UFO conspiracy ever recorded. They put it in a (really good) episode of the X Files to throw us off the scent.

You can't put a cover on the sky

Remember the 90s? Remember when people rightly identified MIC projects? But then also built a weird (but rad) secular ideology around it.

Music was better when aliens existed.

 

Unfortunately American / British rock and roll influnence in (bad) Korea did help produce a few bangers inlcuding this fuzz soaked bit of psychadelic pop rock perfection.

Shin Joong-Hyun wasn't exactly a radical, but after the General's coup he was comissioned to write a song about the the glory of General Park Chung Hee. Instead he wrote a tune about the glory of Korea's natural beauty. He was arrested and had all his equipment confiscated.

Later he was impisoned again for selling weed, tortured, and sent to a 'psychiactic facility' where he remained imprisoned for years and banned for performing in (bad) Korea.

Unfortunately I've never known much apart from some other credits from liner notes about Lee Jung Hwa, who provides the song-making vocal.

 

A bunch of people stole a SWAT vehicle and were riding it around a parking lot. Someone add the Teriyaki Boyz track from Fast & Furious Tokyo Drift.

It's important I find it to prove my word, because what else do we have?
