Instead of a “renaissance man”, I’m a “renaissance nerd”. Pinball? Sure. Sci-fi? Of course. video games? Natch. 70’s Italian Prog-rock? A raison d’etre.

It’s also PATREON fucking up. I’ve got a couple people i follow that are moving to Ghost as a hedge.
Godspeed You! Black Emperor: dead flag blues
I remember listening to this, six months into the pandemic, walking through the grocery store with most people masked up and staying away from others, and there were some people in there totally unmasked, looking at us. The fucking strangest feeling.
Font looks like Sam’s, and I saw similar Christmas stuff there recently
Not true! Mine’s exceptionally ugly, so I think “I really need to replace it” the instant I walk in.
Shoegaze is actually called that because the bands all have a ton of effects pedals, and they’re constantly changing settings and moving from pedal to pedal. So it looks like they’re staring at their shoes. I’ve never heard of it referring to spectators, though in hindsight I’ve done that a couple of times at shows, so…maybe?
Remember kids: you can buy musicians ear-plugs that mean you can keep listening to it your whole life without crippling phantom noise all the time.
YO SOY UN AVOGAHDO
There already is a sub, at least to stop drinking.
Shit. Didn’t expect Escoffier to get pulled out here. I thought it was this recipe, but I just checked and there’s only cheddar. So now I feel like I ripped you off. https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/baked-macaroni-and-cheese-recipe-1939524.amp
But thanks for sharing the recipe! I’ve been looking for an excuse to do a Moreau sauce for a while. I don’t think it’s an actual “mother sauce”, but still one I haven’t made. Appreciate it!
Alton Brown’s with Gruyère Is fantastic. The funny thing is, kids don’t like it because it’s got too much flavor or something. Lol.
I use Feedly. It’s not Google News, but it works well, the mobile app is great, and it’s not going to be killed on a whim.
“Honey, remember we were talking about how catching Covid multiple times makes you stupid?”
They just dropped a 15 minute track yesterday. :)
Siege is the high point for me - it’s where I came in, but the mix of the metal + electronica + symphonic + beauty vocals is prettyy much perfect there. I like the newer and older, and I love being able to strip away the layers.
Mechina - Siege. Take a metal band with industrial influences. Release an album. Take that album. Add tons of atmospherics and electronica. Release that version as well. Now take that, and add angelic votes, and some harsh and release that as well. You can buy whichever version you prefer. All great for the different reasons
Wayfarer – American Gothic. The jangly guitar alternate 1890s death/black metal band you didn’t know you needed.
Sermon - on golden verse. proggy anthemic melodeath with fantastic clean vocals.
There, wolf. There, castle.
No upper case I either.
Seriously, they couldn’t put in a 1/I/l test? That’s half of what I want a different font for.

As a “casual”, what happened? Full price on top of pay-to-win? Something else?
