punchy catchy stupid gorgeous classic

hate the bridge though

She doesn't drink, so I'm kind of at sea with what to suggest for a first date. We end up meeting at this gelato shop downtown. We hang out for a bit and chat. I ask if she wants to walk over to this book store. We walk over. We walk to the philosophy section (i'm looking for Baudrillard's Simulacra and Simulation, have not been able to find it anywhere). She picks a random book in the philosophy section. Turns out its a book that has no business being there, a Brothers Grimm book. She opens it.

In the back of the book is $700 in cash.

We look around thinking, surely, we're on camera and this is some kind of prank.

We took it. She buys the book for $6. Then we went to a concert together.

I still cannot fucking believe this just happened.

i blame the soviet ministry of propaganda. why they spent so much time editing the Arkady's and Lem's while Lenin was like "this is an apple, you eat it with your mouth and then you chew it with your teeth!" bro stop what the fuck

not really interested in the prager U version of the cold war so i wont bother typing "cold war documentary" into YT. if you guys have recs pls share, thank you

happy saturday everyone

i hope i can keep this momentum going and record more in the coming days... thank you guys for listening, your support means a lot

edit: i was a bit too eager to share it, it needs to be cleaned up a bit sorry for teasing, will repost soon :")

every time i logged in it said "logged in" in green like it went through, but it didnt, it just kept prompting me to log in again and again. i couldnt message a mod about it bc i wasnt logged in :( and i couldnt create a new account.

anyway, glad to be back!

i have fucking forgotten all of the emote shortcuts but im sure theyll come back to me

edit: apparently it was only 4-5 months but it felt like a year

dude im probably gonna die in like 2 years anyway what the fuck is the point of me being miserable and unable to do the one thing i was put on fucking earth to do

i bought myself a vintage mesa boogie transatlantic 2x12 combo, an mxr 10 band eq (vintage mesa boogies have super distinct crunch but the eq control is basically nonexistent), a basic boss cs-3 compressor and just found a good deal on a like-new line 6 DL4 delay modeler (those things are so fucking cool and ive wanted one forever); im adding all this to my pedalboard w/ waza blues driver, MIJ boss chorus pedal, wammy pitch shifter and behringer digital delay pedal (i make grunge/shoegaze music); would love to post a pic of my setup when its all done

im still playing drums on a sound percussion (starter drum kit) with like one upgraded cymbal lol, so literally the whole kit sounds like shit, but the one cymbal sounds amazing, now i basically have to upgrade the kit

found a guy selling a drum mic kit for $300 that comes with x3 sm57s and a shure b57 or whatever (dynamic kick mic) and i already have two overheads for the stereo cymbal sound i'm hoping to get

yeah i wont be able to go to the hospital for a while but who fucking cares dude im not gonna live forever. this shit makes me so happy. i want to start a nonprofit record label one day and all of this shit is an investment

follow your dreams

sorry for rambling like a lunatic lol

Biden just gives a press conference like, “We would like to thank our comrade President Xi for showing us that there are viable alternatives to liberal democracy, and more efficacious paradigms of development than the neoliberal model we’ve been pushing. We would like to congratulate President Xi on ending abject poverty in China, and for his innovative, forward-looking Belt-And-Road Initiative; we would like to join in helping to develop the over-exploited ex-colonial states we damaged through centuries of merciless pillage and racist imperialist programs. Let’s all join forces and start working to mitigate the harm we’ve done in the past, and start building inroads to a sustainable and just future.”

That's literally all it would take. And it would be objectively the right thing to do. And yet the world is in such a state of imposed misery that this seems like the most far-fetched reality I can possibly imagine. It's sad.

i swear we used to have a copypasta com

literally me rn
