I literally just threw it on, and I am in love. I don't speak French but this is an absolute banger of an album so far. It sounds super modern, not aged like American pop of the same vintage (probably because I didn't grow up with it.)

See, that at least to me, makes it a fun gimmick.
Problem is, it's a hard balance to pull off - and it seems like nobody manages it for long.

Gimmick posting is good in theory, often bad in practice.

Not sure if I've posted it before, but it was only like a month or two after another QCS thread devolved into the cspam/gbs/crew bickering that resulted in a few people posting that taintrunner should be made mod, and he posted a really weird humblebrag about how he didn't think he would be a good mod.

Taintrunner posted:

I actually don't think I'd be a "good" mod. I really don't like the feeling when a moderator jumps into a thread and starts posting like some sort of authority, with the unspoken sense that you can't really rip into them because they have a cop badge by their name and can be a dick to you on a whim if you really get under their skin. I think that sucks as a posting dynamic and I would hate to waste an opportunity to rip into someone because they feel like they have to pull their punches or what the gently caress ever. It's a lovely dynamic that is a lose-lose for all of us.

The only real reason to probe/ban someone, from my point of view, is for something illegal or deeply, irredeemably offensive, or more importantly, spending 5 pages arguing in a circle without contributing anything new, which is what really ripped apart the Succ Zone when #ForceTheVote was happening - you had multi-page meltdowns of a few people just going "nuh uh" and it loving sucked poo poo for everyone involved, and the mods refused to step in and bounce the boring rear end concern trolls who refused to take in new information and either take the L or respond accordingly, which ended up revealing more about themselves than the strength of their beliefs or arguments, which was the endgoal of #FTV in the first place.

Part of the problem is that arguing like this is two parts heart, and one part performance. By posting you're creating content, that other people are reading and consuming, to put it in the worst terms possible. And more than anything, it should be at the very least, entertaining and readable - my vulgarity is a reflection of the vulgarity of American politics and how utterly disgusting it is, as someone who has been on the bottom of the economic ladder for the majority of my life, and managed to spend some time travelling the world for work to see it for what it really is.

The comedy politics forum should be fun to read, more than anything, and since we live in such a time of horrific non-linear warfare, there's a lot of anger and disgust with people who are being told certain narratives, and then turn around and look at the material reality of their lives, and it's like an improvised pressure cooker bomb waiting to go off. So you try to release the valve a little to help people get through their day.

Simple as that.

Shark Sandwich posted:

I remember being on a subway with Jefferoo once after a goon meet and some girl made some comment to us about Joss Whedon not being terrible so he went home and wrote a missed connections post on Craigslist about it.

Shark Sandwich posted:

It's been long deleted. Basically we were on the subway and I mentioned that I didn't like Joss Whedon and some girl started talking to us and asking us why and he got really angry when some other guy said he disagreed with us and she blew Jefferoo off. Like right after home he posted a massive diatribe about how she was a bitch for preferring to talk to some guy because he liked Joss Whedon. Keep in mind the other guy was totally normal and Jefferoo was straight up ranting at her.

It’s probably not what NoiseAnnoys is referring to but if you like this kind of thing I definitely recommend Analog Africa on bandcamp. They put out a lot of great stuff from African and South American artists from the 60s-80s

hell yeah

i can also recommend radiooooo.com if you like discovering new music from around the world. i know they have an ios app too, not sure about android. anyway basically it has some playlists and poo poo but its best feature imo is you can tell it a country and a decade and itll play you music. like you want some 70s iranian tunes? have as much as you want. you can see who uploaded the track and play more of the stuff theyve uploaded, a lot of the people ive seen have playlists elsewhere that have been really good.

i feel like im always behind the times on stuff like this so maybe its old news but i just discovered it like 2 weeks ago and its been blowing my mind
