A lot of this shit is affected by what you eat. If I eat a lot of sugar and gluten it definitely affects my skin and dandruff 2-3 days later.

Besides what a lot of people said, try to stick to foods that don’t cause inflammation or reactions.

The Last Seduction

Drove through there (Boring) an hour ago. It’s a cute place

A friend of mine bought a house for $40k under market because a murder suicide happened there the year before.

He said, “that sucks, but it’s not like I knew them or anything”

But they’re still right here

When you have the USA in your back pocket they let you do it. You can do anything

Great quote, but this isn’t really a children’s movie

These were some of my favorite books at one time, but Simmons is a right wing chud these days. When you read his books with that awareness it’s actually kind of jarring how questionable some of the elements and characterizations he uses are.

I was really excited after finishing Hyperion and Endymion to read his other works, but Illium and Olympos made him out to be a one trick pony… plus those books just sucked

Endymion and Rise is Endymion were both great in my opinion.

Simmons is kind of a one trick pony tho, so it’s more of the same shit: things are happening and there’s this precocious character who has to explain everything explicitly to the reader, etc. I still think they’re worth reading. Illium and Olympos sucked and were essentially the same jarring non narrative that’s supposed to come together with the same sorts of characters and literary riffing (ie, elements from other genres and styles as well as Shakespeare, Greek mythology, etc.)

Unfortunately Simmons revealed himself to be outspoken with his regressive politics, so it’s kind of a bumout that Hyperion was a book that I enjoyed so much.

Strap in. It’s an election year

Bought mine in 2017. Mine is double. It makes zero sense

I’m sure Ezra Miller is free. Hardy har bar

Yeah, except the Czech Republic will probably take meaningful steps to ensure it doesn’t happen again

I used it for a bit. It was nice sending and receiving images from iPhone using friends that didn’t look like blown up 50x50 thumbnails of jpeg artifacting

There’s a difference between Motorhead, the Sex Pistols, and someone like Slayer who all used Nazi imagery to provoke in a problematic way and bands that claim to be part of the National Socialist Black Metal scene. I mean… I can’t understand the lyrics on an Absurd record without the lyric sheet, but the giant blank sun in their artwork is a dead giveaway

So wild that this is a hot take these days

I’m pretty left/lean socialist. The tankies that annoy me from those instances are pro authoritarian communists who say shit like “Stalin did nothing wrong” with no irony whatsoever. It’s not really about bickering over ideological purity past a certain point, some of that shit makes a good case for the horseshoe theory

My 20 year old Honda element can actually make it to the trailhead at the top of a shitty mountain road

A sports car doesn’t do anything I’d find worthwhile, but go off king

I worked for a few labels back in the day. Bands could make money depending on if they’re discerning with who they signed with. Some indie labels split profits down the middle after costs are recouped

Problem is each and every revenue stream is a fraction of what it used to be

Daniel Ek (Spotify CEO) is 3x richer than Paul McCartney. If that doesn’t bun you out enough, he uses his fortune to invest in sketchy AI for military applications., plus you know… Joe Rogan and all that shit

Fuck that guy in the face
