this is what happened in japan, more or less, right? catalogs were fragmented across multiple stores and physical stayed viable longer. the result was that they got to "big pop acts release 20 different versions of the same single" two decades earlier

parallel tech tree where steve jobs never built itunes, labels made their own shitty digital stores, the album lived longer, and a totally different artist-economics fight took place
English
@elite_gz I sometimes wonder if PE buying up all these catalogs will solve for this. They don’t care so long as they get paid
English
yeah, it's impossible to get the music cleared without flattering the artist, which means the result can't possibly have any teeth. documentaries are like this too, as the ezra edelman/prince estate saga demonstrated

Being both a film nerd and a music nerd sounds great in theory until you realize music biopics are the single worst genre of film ever to disgrace gods green earth

On the other hand my friend who’s a degenerate spender did trips like this every month when he was in his 20s and 30s. Doesn’t really seem to have negatively affected his life in any way

my buddy just sent me this and said it was like “if Bear vs. Shark listened to Orchid” and that seemed insane to me but it totally does sound like Bear vs. Shark and Hella if they loved emo music, it’s so fucking sick

This 2023 Steve Marino album is a personal pan classic for me, doesn’t seem like anyone remembers it but I go back to it all the time open.spotify.com/track/6t8pvGKx…

The best food in the country:
Seafood - Boston
BBQ - Austin
Pizza - New Haven
Steakhouses: NYC
Italian: NYC
Fine dining- LA, Napa.
Vegas is on the list, but doesn't fit in any singular category. Strong entries in steakhouses, fine dining and Asian.
If I existed solely to eat awesome food I'd probably live in Vegas.

@poulsarded @PhilSustainable @Boenau I’m sorry but Staten Island doesn’t count. It’s the exception that proves the rule

@PhilSustainable @Boenau NYC is a car dependent metro. Only
parts of the city proper don't require a car
English
"Car dependency is why housing is more affordable here than there." 🤡
Steven Godofsky@sgodofsk
the inconvenient truth for urbanists is that while dallas and houston land use look ridiculous to them because of all the parking lots, housing is still cheaper there than anywhere with substantial transit, and the population is growing without incident

@idobadtakes 4 years living in Dallas in University Park I had my truck broken into 3 times and stolen twice (kill switch / recovered a few blocks away. Lived in NY for 25 years and have not been victimized once. The # of people I know who have I can count on one hand.

One of the reasons I love NYC and Boston are they are basically crime-free compared to the South

Trump's deportation scheme, as he describes it, would result in a totalitarian nightmare with scenes straight out of Nazi Germany or Soviet Russia: men with guns ripping millions of families apart, destroying communities, hunting for the unwanted group snyder.substack.com/p/twelve-milli…
English
their theory was that there was a massive population of unsympathetic people unambiguously here illegally that were easily findable by the feds but couldn't be deported Because Of Woke, so barely trained goons would grab them and be cheered for it. that pop. mostly doesn't exist.

@grace_roso and everything that’s not americana is shoegaze
English
People love to talk about “americana” and “alt-country” when they really just mean “rock music where the guitars aren’t particularly fast or loud”

i would ask people about seeing the strokes or the walkmen the same way you'd ask boomers about woodstock

what's funny about these engagement bait tiktoks about being a millennial in williamsburg or greenpoint in 2012 is that as a g/l train millennial from 2012-15 we all knew that the actual cool time to live there was 2005 or whatever
