Yet no one is talking about how my testicles testily testiculate down the stairs.

I have no idea but I like to imagine hundreds of editors rushing out every time there’s a prominent death to be the first to change it.

A Texas what? Oh, cowboy.

I can’t believe the devil is so unforgiving

I’ve been using free software (both free as in freedom and free as in beer) off and on since I discovered slackware in the 90s, but I’ll be the first to admit I’m not plugged into the scene. I’m not plugged into most scenes except possibly rock and Americana music, and I know all the gross shit that happened there. Rock music especially. And that may actually be why I tend to avoid getting plugged in.

But I went through the whole report. I’m sad to find out someone with such lofty ideals in one area is so scummy. A lot of that just sounds like typical neckbeard idiocy dialed up to maximum. And if he were just any neckbeard or incel on the street everyone could just dismiss him. But he’s a prominent figure that represents a movement spouting gross and harmful shit. It has nothing to do with the validity of the movement, nor does it remove the value of free software, but him being a keynote speaker everywhere and being so involved makes things feel dirty.

I don’t know. I didn’t take my medication today so I’m scattered. I just hate when people doing important or influential work are gross people, especially if they have harmful attitudes towards minors.

I had no idea. With all of the things I have to follow on a daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly basis some things are just going to fall through the cracks. “Minor public figure holds reprehensible views” won’t generally hit my radar. “Major public figure did something reprehensible” may not hit my radar depending on how busy or drunk I am in a given week, which will leave me wondering why people hate them years later.

I’m not saying this as a criticism of you. You brought it up which is super valuable. There’s just so much shit to keep up with that I always appreciate context because I have other things going on and rarely have any idea what reprehensible thing a particular person has said or done.

Same, buddy.

Rusty Shackleford is just the name he uses to order Pizza with.

Hey, that’s fair! Not everything speaks to everyone. World would be terribly boring if it did.

Its why so much of the Game of Thrones fandom (and original creator…) clearly don’t have much production experience. Yes, it would have been cool to have arcs like Lady Stoneheart. But the chances of Michelle Fairley being interested in coming back four years later for two episodes is nigh zero AND would have given her way more negotiating power than studios want. Same for all the other one off characters who come back two books later.

I always wondered how they planned to pull that off with the Wheel of Time show. I know it’s a moot point now, but there’s a big one that left and came back way later. There are also some smaller examples, but I feel like with the bit parts you could probably get someone that looks similar enough.

With the exception of the words “somewhat overrated”, I agree with this 100%. I have probably ~1000 hours in bg3 and just shy of 100 in expedition 33.

I wish I could play Expedition 33 for the first time again. It’s amazing. And it is very much a work of art.

With BG3 I can play it for the first time again by making different choices, adding mods, and choosing different classes. It’s a very fun video game with a lot of choices.

I’d highly recommend both. If someone is searching to fill between 40 and 100 hours (I like side quests, ok?) then Expedition 33 is absolutely amazing. If someone were looking to spend a couple of years before they have the money for another game then I can absolutely recommend BG3.

It gives me the low level burning sensation of an STI.

I didn’t even know these sorts of mini racks existed. now I’m going to have to get one for all my half sized preamps if they’ll fit. That would solve like half the problems with my studio room and may help bring back some of my spark for making music.

I have no recs. Just want to say I’m so excited to see this. I can probably build an audio patch panel.

I actually love loads of old country and a bunch of really new country. When I talk shit like that it’s about whatever the fuck was happening with pop country in the 90s, bro country, and whatever the fuck all the rah rah 'murica shit that’s been happening since 2001.

Willie, Waylon, Cash, Jones, Carlisle, Parton, Mandrell, Rondstadt, and Lucinda Williams are national treasures. Nebraska is one of the best albums ever released.

On the newer side, you have folks like Childers, Amigo the Devil, Whiskey Myers, Jason Isbell, Drive By Truckers, and a bunch of others who are out there doing amazing work.

But if someone wants to enjoy Toby Keith, Florida Georgia Line, Zach Brown, Garth Brooks, or Shania Twain that’s their business. That don’t befront me long as I get my money next Friday.

I’m a big proponent of letting people do whatever the hell they want as long as it doesn’t involve someone who isn’t consenting. Gay sex? Cool. Well done steak? Sure. Country music? If that’s what you’re into.

For really good cuts I’m a rare guy. But the way you eat your steak has absolutely no effect on my enjoyment of my steak.

All great options. I’ll throw in two here. Cocaine and Able by Amigo the Devil and Broken Window Serenade by Whiskey Myers.

It absolutely is. I’m a big proponent of getting in line to oppose Republicans when it’s election time, but the second the election is over until the second the primaries are over is the time to talk shit, find options, get behind folks who align with your beliefs, and make your voice heard. Because right now we’re setting who gets a seat at the table. We’re setting what kind of promises will be made.
