8·2 months agoLate '80s. We would coordinate who would buy which cassette album and then go to the person’s house with the best “dub” deck and make copies. There was 2x and maybe even 4x copy speed but the quality would suffer. Usually good enough for our shitty car stereos though. 90 minute tapes could normally get an album on each side. IIRC the high quality blanks were about $1.50 each if you bought a 10 pack. $8 for a tape of a regular band or something older like Led Zeppelin, $12 for a brand new hit album.
Making mix tapes for your crush was HUGE at the time. Hey, if I can’t write poetry at least I can make her a cassette of love songs, right?
1·2 months agoHm, I haven’t looked into it at all, just saw the headline. Big oof if true.
I think you will find that NYC hasn’t been sensible for decades. Mamdami claims to have reduced the deficit to zero and permanently funded libraries already, so maybe he can turn that juggernaut a bit.

Fucking fools.
10·3 months agoThat strip club in Hollywood. “Thousands of beautiful girls… and three ugly ones”
I don’t remember the name of the club but the last time I was on Hollywood Blvd that building was shuttered like so many others.
STOP CALLING HERE!
…
hello?
bruh. The iPhone 20 year anniversary is next January.
Or maybe you hit a 2 instead of a 3.

You could probably reverse search it but it’s just two buffalo hunters standing on a pile of skulls. Impressive, yet standard wild west shit. That photo is in a lot of books and on a lot of websites.
These absolute ass warts can’t even keep enough cattle in stock to keep GROUND FUCKING BEEF under $4 a pound and they still want to take over the “cheap federal land” (their words) from the native goddamn animals.
FOR WHAT? DICKS. YOU WON’T EVEN RAISE ENOUGH CATTLE TO FEED US ON THE GODDAMN GROUND YOU ALREADY CONTROL.
Fuck this shit.
edit:
This group the American Prairie Reserve: They intended to purchase 500k acres and then take control of the leases of BLM graze to the tune of 3 million acres for the bison. So yeah, this is just Montana cattlepricks kicking the “stupid eco-trash” out of Montana.
Fuuuuuuck, I will never spend a single dime in that state.
Radium. Tasty, tasty radium.
3·3 months agowine… holy water. wine… holy water.
Shit, I only have one coin! I guess the blessing will have to wait.
(I love it when people learn this)
edit: and I think it’s so cool that the weight of the coin determined how long the valve stayed open. Real money and all that.
You’re the one walking around with a resting o face.
A Chinese company, I think it was Mitigo? Made a wonderful white face watch with big lume indices but I missed out on it and I don’t think they have made it again. Thing cost like $65 and looked like a million bucks.
edit: Militado. This watch in white:
White Weekender Indiglo. i have multiple watches but this one is my favorite.
I’m old, I’m allowed to wear my Timex.
It’s the “driver” orientation and there are even watches made with “12 at 2” to implement it.
It was for race car drivers back at the turn of the last century. It just makes you look like a dork now.
It’s not a good option. Take off your t-shirt and use that before you reach for a maxi-pad.

Q: What’s the difference between pussy and Busch beer?
A: Pussy only tastes like piss for a few seconds.
