The Stupidity of Modern Conspiracy Theories
It’s been over two months since Steve Albini dies, but I’m still listening to all the records he engineered (as he would call his production work). One of the bands I got back to because of this is The Breeders.
Mandatory Performative Pride Month Post 2024 Edition: Weird combination of Roxana Shirazi, Simon Fujiwara, Elisarion and Borderlands
Caveat: While I try not to center myself here, as Pride is definitely not about me, I can’t but contrast certain things to myself.

Let’s Take a Look at the Positive Effects of Plagiarism and You(Tube)
You know the hbomberguy video about plagiarism that destroyed at least one career? I’ll let others talk about that, while I’ll go directly to the end. There’s a section there, where Harris talks about other queer content creators, who he recommends as alternatives to James Somerton. He also gathered these and more in a playlist called Your New Favorite YouTubers. Who knows? They very well might be, although there’s a bunch of people you already probably know.
It’s 30 Years Since the Death of Kurt Cobain
Yeah… It’ll happen on April 4th to be exact. I’m 46, so he was a seminal figure in my youth.

If you haven’t heard, Condé Nast decided that in order to protect the band of Pitchfork (paraphrasing them), it has been folded into the organization of GQ. Shouldn’t someone actually look into what they own before making such decisions?
