ai boosters are like "best case scenario it'll ruin everyone's life and kill your family", and then they act all indignant and confused when people aren't stoked about it
the inexpressible heartbreak, the impossible labor of art: i am full of metal and cancer and these are my songs, my terrible children, this is my work, i bring it to you cupped in broken hands.
genius dot com annotation: "cancer is a type of disease. it is being used here as a metaphor"
screenshot of genius dot com page for the song Heavy Metal by Cameron Winter. On the left is the lyrics to the song, highlighted: Oh, cancΠ΅r of the fingers And the hands of a beginner Songs are meant for bad singers On the right is an explanation (this is truncated) Biologically, cancer is an uncontrollable and deadly reproduction of a creatureβs cells that eventually spreads throughout the body and kills the victim.

it's remarkable how explaining poetry, especially in the modality of genius dot com, makes it suck nuts super hard
the newest Geese album has a Magnetic Fields type sweet romantic innocence to it, not what i expected. i'm a sucker for that stuff.
I've got half a mind
To just pay for the lobotomy
And tell em get rid of the bad times
And get rid of the good times too
I've got no more thinking to do
my other high-confidence observation is that i'm usually wrong about stuff, so by saying "ai isn't a bubble" i'm goading the universe to prove me wrong
based on the long-running observation that, these days, the dumbest and worst outcomes are the most likely, i hereby register my prediction that AI is somehow _not_ a bubble and in fact will continue to grow and make everything worse forever
there's some weird thing happening where people say Rogue One is the best Star Wars movie. i'm left flabbergasted and speechless. i think it's happening alongside Phantom Menace revisionism, a winking and outrageous opinion
The Big Ship by Brian Eno is ready to become the big TikTok sound of 2026. Everyone's going to be saying, looks like Gen-Z finally discovered Brian Eno. They're going to love it and they're going to love Before Sunrise.
i remember getting yelled at on the portland subreddit for saying an internment camps for homeless people was a bad idea. blue state voters have been frothing at the mouth for exactly this policy for years

i'm so sorry but i've actually been told by very serious people that this isn't realistic and Helsinki should probably give up on this nonsense :/
(jk this is amazing)
this joke was unappreciated in its time. decades after my death it will be rediscovered and elevated to its deserved position among the stars
i can't imagine a single system that would be totally resilient degradation and corruption by bad actors over decades or centuries. even a perfectly egalitarian democracy would be vulnerable to a stupid and cruel populace
maybe authoritarian is here because a lot of people wanted authoritarianism
i watched night moves and i thought it sucked and it was bad
a nice vineripe tomato, room temperature or sun warmed, never cold. red all the way through. you can't beat that. i'd eat a tomato like an apple, just eat the thing on its own, that's a perfect thing. the peppery smell of vine in your fingernails
all crawling vines and bitter fruit
just thinkin bout stuff
i'm just casually wondering if there's a sickness in our hearts that we ignored as it festered and metastasized. if we spent decades or centuries as convenient bedfellows of pointless cruelty and violence and the darkness grew in from the corners of our eyes until it covered them
a month ago i bought like 30 pounds of dried rice and beans
never stop imagining a better world

of the european microstates, andorra is certainly the one whose name is composed of the most prepositions strung together
i would like to be carved from a large cool grey stone such as basalt over the course of years, tap by tap of a hammer and chisel
oh that's a reasonable guess
this is clearly a shameful attack on romanian-moldovan unification by the blu-ray disc association
world map showing the 3 blu ray regions
world map showing the 6 dvd regions
moldova was in DVD region 5 but is in Blu-ray region 3. what the hell happened
I believe what many people actually want in their heart of hearts is for the "right" thing to happen without requiring anybody to wield power. But it turns out there is no magic. It's just us.
