I thought I was some kinda genius when I bought a 1*4 Kallax and put it to the right of my 4*4. When I had to buy my second I realised Ikea did not, sadly, sell floor space in my living room. Ikea is my Acme and I am Wile E racing toward a painted tunnel on a cliff face.

Calypso legend Mighty Sparrow has died at 91. Ona of the Trinidadian’s best-known songs was 1967’s “Congo Man” which touched on topics such as racial inequality, interracial sex and political strife. Sparrow performing the song live in 1995. #RIPMightySparrow m.youtube.com/watch?v=SDV2...

You're welcome. Heard this version on one of Coldcut's Solid Steel programmes 25-odd years ago and it took me years to track it down.

You are correct. Some Democrats have decided that trans people are a convenient group to demonise for political gain. What wonderful leadership from such courageous people. Who, pray tell, is the next convenient victim on the road to victory?

Man, Robert calls it the end of history and I eat the kerb for deigning to suggest New Wave was dead by 1984??? Naked was a decent listen but it didn't end the world.

Every white man has their "peak of Western Civilisation" take and how pretty this hill is to die on bodes well for your putative dotage and/or legacy. It is also the beginning of the end for Talking Heads so it is kinda like watching the 9/11 of New Wave.

I don't hold a role. Maybe it will augment role-holders. They probably need a break from playing a role in someone else's fantasy. Seems like you're cheerleading inauthenticity, apathy and incuriosity on behalf of dangerous philistine sociopaths.

I saw a post earlier saying I need to integrate AI into my workflow as an artist or I'll be left behind. Sure I've seen dozens of posts like this before, but I'm really seriously thinking about it now and I am at a total loss as to what it would possibly do to improve my work.

Certainly, but let's not beg the question of why regional Australia is so dependent on skilled migrants; why no bugger wants to be there; why FIFO in the Pilbara gets you a luxury boat and a mansion but supporting a community leaves you broken.

It's weird how a small clique of quasi-religious sociopathic nerds are perplexed why people don't embrace their shitty meme software that shreds history to fluff their flaccid egos. Same old human nature, idiots playing God.

I am a technician with 30 years worth of experience repairing electronic equipment. I studied, apprenticed and worked in the field. Now my life is suffused with people bringing in machines they've mangled asking for help after Youtube/ChatGPT idiocy. Dumb machines ruining works of art.

And, for what it's worth, an area behind the Iron Curtain that fared better than their neighbours being a breadbasket. Reunification led to resentment not opportunity, despite a measurable lift in income and living standards for most. Rubes who ache for agrarian fascism, like their US counterparts.

Plug for a text written by two of the most interesting and talented people I know, "Hooks in Popular Music" by Tim Byron and Jade O'Regan. It's an academic text so very costly, but perhaps available through a library. Great investigation of the phenomenon.

While it is not a 1:1 correspondence, each time I am asked by an "AI-creator" to provide a service, a short background check will yield a phrase like "under investigation", "elder abuse", "alleged puppy mill mogul", or "banned from watching under 11s football".
