This Ice Cube Bad Faith is pretty boring so far

I've found that to be true of Bad Faith in general. It is mostly just rehashing the sorts of arguments made online/on twitter a million times. It's like an unfunny chapo.

It actually expects you to be more online than Chapo. 26 minutes in and they still haven't even explained any of the proposals that are in the contract for black america. They're just talking about the bakclash they apparently got for meeting with Kushner

I think the last time I used the speed thing was when I was working at a call center and had an earbud in under my headset to listen to podcasts and in retrospect it was not a healthy coping mechanism

I'm a musician so I guess I'm triggered or whatever but music is literally composed to be at a certain tempo as part of the artistic statement

just don't listen to music if you can't encounter it at its intended speed

the sloth scene from zootropia

seriously though am i the only one that does <1 (0.8-0.9x)? otherwise i have a hard time actually following poo poo and remembering it but i freely admit my sound->brain processor is and has been utter poo poo since I was a kid. made college kind of interesting but got through just by hand-writing down copious amount of notes and reviewing/consolidating notes.

years ago there were a couple artists who would delete anything of their stuff that got uploaded to youtube so people started speeding it up or down a couple percent to get around the internet cops

it was infuriating

If you hear blind peoples' computers' text to speech it's on such a speed that it's unintelligible to others just because they've had so much practice listening to one voice. I imagine that's how people in this thread listen to podcasts.

my good friend who pvp'd with me in epic hardcore MUD hellmoo literally set teamspeaks text to speech to a different voice so he could ignore it when he needed to lol.

but anyway back on subject: the big problem with podcasts, which I listen to more than I talk with other real humans, is that I enjoy it too much, so I like to speed it up so I spend less time doing it. I'm also normal.

"Ah," Ratz had said, at last, "the artiste."
I don't even listen to every episode of the few podcasts I even like

I probably listen to one out of three streetfight radio eps and its almost never the call-in show, and maybe one in five trillbillies eps

How about a more supportive podcast listener community which doesn't shame its members for overindulging in the stranger group discussions we all crave?

hmm very insightful, yes yes indeed

surprisingly enough, Alvin and the Chipmunks slowed down back to regular speed makes the songs sound particularly moody and good

someone did this once and released it as an album, but I can't remember what it was called; it's version of "Walk Like An Egyptian" stands out
