@SwitchedOnPop Enigma - Sadeness

What are some adult contemporary songs that are straight up bangers?

@danaturalleague lol search your deck for up to 2 superstars, put both in your hand (no true hate for kd tho he is too mesmerizing)

Finding out through my kid's gifts this is an actual Pokemon name.

would you be my friend even if I was a sentient octopus? tiktok.com/t/ZTR76PVDo/

lol i'm really sick of seeing anything about fred again but i will say that there's more to his privilege than knowing brian eno, you can literally trace his british lineage back to like the 16th century in 15min of clicking around wikipedia

@kentaro_tools this looks really dope i can't wait to try it out. can i also ask as someone wanting to get into making this kind of thing—are your plugins made purely in M4L or is it C++ ecosystem and such? Not sure what the possibilities/limitations of M4L are, thanks!

new features youtu.be/6xojU6IlFNo

swirl v.1.1 vst3/au/m4l out now

@danaturalleague oh yeah my dad used to call us from india on one of these, and literally every convo began with him marveling at the magicJack

Hey, anybody remember this?

finally, thanks to stable-diffusion generated animation, i have video to accompany my lil music experiments @otherdimensionalclub/video/7203996355214249259" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">tiktok.com/@otherdimensio…

@Pinboard @CptKrrk man i had mad respect for you at some point in the past, but your flippant and dismissive approach to this is honestly making me feel real sad and pretty disoriented. hope u can find it in your heart to treat trans ppl with the same anti-oppressive lens as HK democracy protestors

@CptKrrk That is just a transparently silly claim

The thing where bien-pensant people are required to pretend J.K. Rowling hates transgender people is one of the weirder cultural phenomena of the early 2020's. This particular example from the Onion, which used to be much less afraid of satirizing the ridiculous.

@framoriniii hey I'd be interested in hearing more thanks! i assume this is a freelance/contract thing and not full-time?

@kush_jones_ 4tet produced some cool but mostly fairly tame shit like a while ago but ya i'm really sick of seeing the hype around these 3

@Sara_Imari Lilith's Brood (and Xenogenesis Trilogy) by Octavia Butler. Humanity is confronted by a far more mature species that basically wants to save humanity from itself (for a price), tells humans their genetic wiring is self-destructive, and humans have to decide what to do with this

My astrobiology class asks “Is humanity ‘mature’ enough to explore beyond the Earth?” … what would you have them read, listen to or watch to expand their exploration beyond the obvious answers?

@JubileeDJ yes finally somebody explained fr3d perfectlyyyy

Fr*d Aga*n is DJ Mr. Peanut Butter

@binarybits lol just writing "objectively speaking" doesn't amount to evidence

Oh man as a former Vox writer with relatively few left-wing opinions I really feel this paragraph. slowboring.com/p/what-i-learn…

@AjitPai @jack @elonmusk "inaccurate" is inaccurate. accuracy means correspondence to reality—representing the truth. this is "incorrect"—adhering to a set of rules. in this case arbitrary ones that are only enforced by annoying types

@jack @elonmusk “To who” is . . . inaccurate. #whom

Twitter needs to become by far the most accurate source of information about the world. That’s our mission.

I'm sure writing this thread will only incur more nationalist wrath. And the notion that I would call any language "ugly" is so fucking ridiculously out of step with my worldview that I will not even address it. I will, however, see what I can do about blaming @Google

so i somehow got tied up in this story, leading to huge amounts of harassment, death threats, other threats aimed at me (thread inc) nytimes.com/2021/06/04/wor…
