    Started Hellsing...

    I preferred the "stupid tv series" shit animation and bad ending and all. The music was out of this world.
  2. Reasons I'm hyped: - Games based on tabletop settings; always my shit. - I love Cyberpunk stuff, I once blew off a lecture to... Read Neuromancer alone at the food court, cover to cover, for about the third time. - And they seem to have the texture of Cyberpunk stuff On. Point. - Seems to have the right balance of RPG-ey; shoot-ey. I know it's a long way off, (2021 projected) and a lot can happen in that time, but I'm going to allow myself to get buzzed.

    Lovecraft Country

    18 and I are 5 eps into Lovecraft Country, a show that nobody else seems to watch! I've also read the book, but vastly prefer the show so far. (Really well scored. Great mix of contemporaneous and contemporary black music) Any other viewers?

    Ok; Let's try and do one hour total music in the form of Youtube videos. The mix will change over time; but let's try and pick tracks that would conceivably be played one after another by a DJ. Think like you're playing Domino's. Feel free to shift genre and energy gradually but each song should feel natural in the squeakwence. Ready? ::::::

    Lovecraft Country

    I don't think there'll be a season 2 given Which is a shame, because there seemed to be a lot more content in the concept. But a big-budget series or movie in which a societal ill is actually somewhat solved is rare. "It's over, and this is desirable" seemed to be the message. Ma boi Zizek talks about how he'd sell his mother for a V for Vendetta part II because we saw the revolutionary event, and not the aftermath. (Mr. Robot kind of did this) but in this we kind of did see a little bit of the aftermath in the

    Best Alcohol You Ever Drank

    A bijiu bar opened up in Liverpool for a while, then rapidly closed. I haven't had anything apparently nice like Maotai but judging by the two bottles I bought to experiment; I'm not a fan.

    Lovecraft Country

    1 episode from finale! Chelle keeps asking me ahead-of-time questions but the show has really run with the premise (Segregation-Horror) and ignored the (5/10) narrative of the book so I can't tell her Shit. Show is spinning a lot of plates, has a lot of subplots going on... and I don't think this is the kinda show that will get a S2... SAD

    Lovecraft Country

    Yaaay 18 didn't like I love that the influences run beyond Lovecraft & felt that one of the episodes in particular felt like it was intended to be a subversion of such as National Treasure, Da Vinci Code by including racism/manifest destiny

    Rate My Banner/Avatar

    Rules. Ignore anyone that says it isn't Classic center. I was on the Center so long that I remember sig anarchy, where people had like... 20 sigs.

    Best Alcohol You Ever Drank

    Liked the bottle of Ardbeg Uigeadail I bought for my 30th birthday a whole lot, but that's boring, so I'll tell you about how last week or so I poured a big slug of Glenfarclas 10 into a mug, then made a Salted Caramel Latte on top of it with my Tassimo. Best drink I ever invented.

    How Many Holes Does A Straw Have?

    Topographically, mathematically, it has 1 hole. But it feels instinctively like it has 2... But then the earth instinctively feels flat. 1

    [07/05/2020] Weekly What Are You Listening To?

    (Or given that Nightcore is all remixes - it's at least very novel pastiche)

    [07/05/2020] Weekly What Are You Listening To?

    I like the helium voices cuz what they've done is like written the experience of a late-night Nightcore binge (hikikomori braindance) into the music from the start & by performing this shit life they've put it in a new context (solitary experience now collectively enjoyed & danced at). Influence of something genuinely new.
