any music-related hot takes?

Mate, I started off as a radio tower illegally broadcasting music that was censored by the BBC. I only have music-related hot takes!

Our take of the day is that anyone who thinks punk must stick to a specific aesthetic is not punk, and it's almost always trying to censor even if they might say it's "preserving" it. (Spoiler: their ideas of "aesthetics" are mostly just, you know... it's saying something awful without saying it because you know how bad it sounds? What's that word again? Is it dogwhistling, or is that something else?)

Mind you, it's not as common now as it was in the 2000s, in part because people were gatekeeping against pop punk (which is a different subgenre, chrise, leave them be) and then reached even further to target actual punk groups, but there was a good chunk of time where geezers who were into the early punk scene would mock any new group for being posers, and most of the time, the people they were pitching a fit about were women, minorities, or young people (ah, yeah, hating on the youth: the most punk thing of all, apparently!) As if British punk would be what it is today without people like Poly Styrene, who basically invented the subgenre of Riot Grrl over a decade before it was recognized and fits into all the groups that are now apparently posers. She'd go on stage with a cute bow in her hair and pastel jumper and skirt and braces like she just left school picture day, then scream her head off about identity and oppression so hard that venues had to pause shows to fix the sound systems!

And - And as if punk at the time wasn't constantly toying with how people dress or sound or look, and pushing revolution, all the stuff that people get weird about nowadays. "Oi, these young wannabes don't look like The Clash!" The Clash are great, and also they would have kicked your skull in for being an elitist bigoted prick. Multiple groups can be great! Just admit you became old and boring and Tory-fied just like the parents you used to rebel against, and can't handle a genre that's - that's based on anarchy unless you can look at it through nostalgia.

#ic #I love how most of the micronations are like “I threw molotov cocktails at the Royal Navy and fought government censorship!”#“My leader got arrested for replacing street signs to say we lived at 'Antifascist Circle' and I'm based in anti-elitist art”#“Land ownership deciding one's nationality is STUPID and the internet will bring about a global reassessment of community and values!”#“If the government won't let me pave a fucking DRIVEWAY on my land then they don't get my money!”#“I was recognized CENTURIES before Italy even unified so why is my government less valid than them?!”#and then there's Molossia and Slowjamastan like “I like trains B)” “Slow jams are fun :)”#THANK YOU FOR THIS ALSO PLEASE LISTEN TO POLY STYRENE AND HER BAND X RAY SPECS. Music history that's SO often brushed over #Also recommend the song I didn't link: “I am a poseur”

for Juneteenth or whenever

if you are non-Black, the only way for you to celebrate Juneteenth is by giving Black people money directly, not through nonprofits or trendy organizations like the NAACP, an organization that centers assimilation & petit bourgeoise aspirations.

you can donate to me, a nondegree, Black TMA craftperson or you can donate to other Black TMA that you follow on Tumblr cause Black TMA people is where EVERYONE gets their inspiration & discourse from on Tumblr.

dont just “donate to bail funds”, do the research to find people who work specifically with Black people in prison cause a lot of these bail funds do not center Black people at all. neoliberals say “donate to bail funds” to virtue signal cause same people probably donated less than $50 USD. put money on a Black person’s books.

reminder that Black people like @wintercorrybriea would’ve probably been an overseer on a plantation or a “free Black” who owned slaves the way corry cosigns some of the most anti-Black nonblack people online so everyone should center darkskinned, unambiguous Black people on Juneteenth, instead of nondarkskinned mixie who has to show his body all the time to stay relevant.

also listen to some DJ Screw

#dj screw #black music #black people #juneteenth #trans #lgbtq #pride #pride 2022 #degrowth #global south #communism #socialism #anarchism #marxism #wintercorrybriea #corry is a loser lmfao #corry briea

Technology's Effect on Contemporary Lifestyle: A Revolution in Human Existence

The way we communicate, work, and live in the twenty-first century has completely changed as a result of the pervasiveness of technology.

With the rise of wearable technology, virtual reality, smart homes, and smartphones, technology has ingrained itself into our everyday lives.

The pervasiveness of technology has profoundly transformed our habits, behaviors, and even mentalities in the ways we learn, work, communicate, and amuse ourselves.

But the integration of technology into our daily lives has also had both beneficial and detrimental effects, affecting our social dynamics, interpersonal relationships, and general well-being.

Revolutionized Communication

One of the biggest influences on the modern lifestyle has been the development of communication technologies.

Letters and telegrams were the only means of long-distance communication in the past; they could take days or even weeks to get to their destination.

But with the introduction of smartphones, social media, and instant messaging apps, communication is now immediate and cross-border.

People can now communicate in real-time with anyone, anywhere in the globe, overcoming geographical limitations.

Unquestionably, technology has increased connectedness and promoted interpersonal connections and global interaction,

but it has also given rise to worries about cyberbullying privacy, and an addiction to continuous communication.

Tasks and Efficiency

The incorporation of technology has resulted in a significant transformation of the workplace environment. Once uncommon, remote employment is now a common choice across many industries.

With the use of project management software, cloud computing, and video conferencing, employees may now collaborate remotely from any location with an internet connection.

This has improved workplace inclusion, flexibility, and work-life balance. But it has also made it more difficult to distinguish between work and personal life, which has resulted in burnout,

a decline in traditional work hours, and difficulties juggling a healthy work-life balance.

Well-being and Health

The healthcare industry has undergone a technological revolution, resulting in improvements in information accessibility,

medical diagnosis, and treatment. People may now proactively monitor their health and seek medical advice from a distance thanks to wearable health devices, fitness apps, and telemedicine.

However, an increase in health problems like obesity, mental health disorders, and eye strain has been linked to sedentary lifestyles, frequent screen use, and digital overload.

The constant availability of information has also resulted in false information and self-diagnosis, which has an impact on people's capacity to make decisions about their health.

Instruction and Acquiring Knowledge

Technology has completely changed the educational scene by giving people access to a wealth of knowledge and resources.

The advent of e-books, educational apps, and online courses has increased the interactivity, accessibility, and customization of learning. But since not everyone has equal access to these resources, the digital divide continues to be a serious worry.

Question marks have also been raised over the effects of an over-reliance on technology in education on social skills, critical thinking, and the capacity to concentrate for lengthy periods without interruption.

Relationships and Social Dynamics

Social media platforms have completely changed the way we communicate, interact, and develop connections.

In addition to promoting connectedness, these platforms have an impact on relationships with others, mental health, and self-worth.

People are curating their lives for social media in an attempt to gain likes, followers, and virtual affirmation.

This behavior frequently results in emotions of comparison and inadequacy.

Furthermore, the rise in popularity of online interactions has changed in-person communication, which affects the growth of sincere relationships and empathy.

Environmental Consequences

Technology's widespread use has affected the environment in both beneficial and harmful ways.

On the one hand, advancements in green technology have brought about sustainable habits, effective transportation, and renewable energy sources.

But the quick speed of technical development has also led to environmental damage, energy consumption, and electrical waste.

Reducing data center carbon emissions and disposing of outdated equipment are urgent issues that call for long-term fixes.

In summary:

Unquestionably, technology has revolutionized how we interact, communicate, work, and learn in the current world.

Although its integration has greatly increased connectedness, efficiency, and convenience, it has also brought up issues and obstacles that need careful thought.

For technology and our way of life to coexist peacefully and sustainably, we must find a balance between harnessing its positive aspects and reducing its negative ones.

A future where technology enhances our lives without overshadowing the essence of humanity can be achieved by embracing technology with mindfulness, ethical considerations, and an emphasis on human well-being.

I think people forget that the Nazis never said they were the bad guys. If someone says, hey, I’m evil! You don’t let them take over your country. They presented themselves as scientific, not hateful. By their own account, they were progressives, and the superiority of White Europe over the other races was a proven and immutable fact. They had scientists and archaeologists and historians to prove it. They didn’t tell people they wanted to kill the Jews because they were hateful. They manufactured evidence to frame us for very real tragedies, and they had methodological research to prove that we were genetically predisposed to misconduct. Wouldn’t you believe that?

Hollywood has spent the last 80 years portraying the Nazis as an obvious and intimidating evil. That’s a good thing in some ways, because we want general audiences to recognize that they were evil. But we also want them to be able to recognize how and why they came to power. Not by self-describing themselves as an evil empire, but by convincing people that they were the good guys and the saviors. They hosted the Olympics. Several European countries capitulated and volunteered themselves to the Empire. There were American and British Fascist Parties. They had broad public support. Hollywood never shows that part, so general audiences never learn to recognize the actual signs of antisemitism.

People today think they can’t possibly be antisemitic, because they’re leftist! They abhor bigotry! They could never comprehend Nazi ideology coming from the mouth of a bisexual college student wearing a graphic tee and jeans. How could they? The only depiction of antisemites they’ve ever seen have been gaunt, pale, middle-aged men in black leather trench coats with skulls on their caps.

If the Nazis time-travelled from the 1930s and wanted to take power now, they’d change their original tactics, but not by much. They would target countries suffering from an identity crisis and an economic collapse. They would portray themselves as the pinnacle of what that society considers progressive. Back then, it was race science. These days it’s performative wokeness. Once they’d garnered enough respect and reputation, they’d begin manufacturing propaganda and lies to manipulate people’s anger and fears at a single target— Jews.

If the Nazis made an actual return, they wouldn’t look like neo-Nazis. They wouldn’t be nearly as obvious about their hatred. Their evil wouldn’t give them yellow eyes, and no suspenseful music would play when they walked in the room. They’d be friendly. They’d look like you. They would learn what things your community fears and what things you already hate. They would lie and fabricate evidence to connect the rich elites and the imperialists you revile to a single source of unequivocal Jewish evil. It wouldn’t be hard— they already have two-thousand years of institutional antisemitism they can rely on to paint their picture.

If you’re curious why antisemitism today is coming from grassroots organizations, young, liberal college campuses, suburban neighborhoods with pride flags and All Are Welcome Here signs? That’s why. It’s because, as a global society, we’ve forgotten that the world didn’t used to see the Nazis as bad guys. And what is forgotten about history is doomed to be repeated.

Quarterfinals, Match 2

expand to see all propaganda received! (wall of text warning oh my god this is a severe cautionary message)

Lauryn Hill:

"she paved the way and was hot as fuck the whole time"

"Girl c'mon. Look at her. You're gonna try and tell me that isn't the most beautiful and attractive person alive? Okay. You're lying but okay."

"if u freaks don't give ms. lauryn hill the respect she deserves..."

"actually one of the prettiest women ever I'm such a lesbian for her. like irl I'm already a lesbian but she is helping"

Damon Albarn:

"Don’t think Damon should be here? Why don’t you get your head checked by a jumbo jet? Maybe you’ll feel heavy metal and calm down."

"If Damon is in the “some guy” category, he’s the heavenly and heartbreaking version. Damon is the sort of significant stranger I’d see on the train out of Colchester but could never speak to, just a face seen in passing yet too radiant to be real. I’d fall in love for an hour and carry the ache for a month."

"Damon sets the standard for me. I think he’s the most fascinating man alive. What I find attractive in Damon is not just his gorgeous bone structure and boyish charm, but how wholly he’s committed himself to music. Damon is an artist who walked the walk: in one of his roughest years with some of his rawest songwriting, he said he was no longer excited by anything except the creative process. He was disillusioned with the celebrity of it all, with his relationships suffering for it, and only wanted to make art: nothing more, nothing less. He would go on to compose film scores, write operas and stage musicals, produce other artists’ records, form collectives to fulfill his passion for world music, and create some of the most globally successful music of his career in a completely innovative format that placed him as the phantom behind the characters. Whenever one band takes a break, he makes a solo record or puts together a supergroup to stay busy. He’s uniquely collaborative and still writes personal letters inviting artists to record with him, and yet can function as a one-man show, acting as a multi-instrumentalist, a singer-songwriter and a producer. He’s been a constant voice of bringing British music to the world *and* bringing world music into Britain. Sure, he’s won Brit Awards and a Grammy among others, but he also has a Guinness World Record and was named an Officer of the British Empire for his services to music; his long work with Africa Express earned him respect even from peers who’d previously dismissed him, and his commitment to support his Malian collaborators in the face of violence earned him the title of Local King in Mali. There is so much talent in the world, but there is truly no one else with a career that looks like Damon Albarn’s. Damon is far more than just a prettyboy to look nice on a magazine cover, but looks are the ultimate point of this tournament, so make no mistake: he was terribly, terribly pretty. You watch him performing in the 90s, you sift through photoshoots and interviews and documentaries, and it feels *cruel* how beautiful he was. If his talent was god-given, so was his face. To put a bow on this thesis: I don’t know if Gorillaz and Damon’s musical universe would be the experimental, globe-trotting, boundary-pushing community affair it is if Blur hadn’t become such a central figure in Britpop and if Damon had not been made such a media spectacle, and I don’t know if Damon would have been that spectacle if he wasn’t so ungodly pretty. The domino effect is that Damon’s cherubic face launched a thousand multimedia art school projects for decades to come."

"I wish I was basically any bloke in the 90s so I could tongue Damon Albarn down. Damon will see a man and ask “is anyone gonna kiss that?” and not wait for a response."

"I have a pillow with his face on it. I sleep with it every night 😊"

"“I’m more homosexual than Brett Anderson, always have been. As far as bisexuality goes, I’ve had a taste of that particular fruit, or have been tasted you might say…” is just the rawest most Shakespearean statement ever"

"he is the ultimate Pretty Boy ™. his glorious golden locks, his electric blue eyes. he is if Princess Diana was a Britpop Dude. he is the Regina George of Britpop. he is if Aphrodite took male form. Zeus would come down to earth to fuck him if he knew. he is a caffeinated orange cat let loose. he is deranged. he is unhinged. you never know what will come out of his mouth. he had sexual tension with every single man who knew him. he pulled justine fucking frischmann. his aura knows no bounds. he is a siren. he is a weird guy. but being so gorgeous stunning ethereal didn't stop him from also being one of the most prolific songwriters of his generation"

"THE MAIN BLUR"

"literally where do i even begin. i could write entire essays on this man. a good place to start would be the beetlebum music video, i suppose. i'll never forget the first time i watched that music video. something in me changed, my brain chemistry was altered, my life was never the same, i view the world a lot differently now. and a lot of the viewing i'm doing is of pictures of damon albarn's face because of boy do i have a lot of those saved. every time i try to look for a photo of something on my phone i can't find it because there's so much damon. okay that's maybe an exaggeration but this man has the most unfathomable beauty ever. his eyes? HIS EYES. god dammit i love his eyes i want to stare at them until the end of time like nothing else exists. i'm so normal about this man (lying) and while i'm usually very shameless about my interests i'm actually incredibly glad this propaganda is anonymous because otherwise. yeah. but the world deserves to see damon albarn's beauty and also hear his fantastic voice because what the fuck. his voice is literally the most gorgeous sound ever produced like bro sounds like that and expects me not to fall in love? i want this man to sing his silly songs and talk absolute nonsense to me until the sun eventually blows out and the world ends. cmon damon girlies let's demolish this tournament i know there are a lot of you."

"He’s beautiful. He’s a little rat. He’s a sweetheart. He’s a dickhead. He’s a musical genius. He’s a dumb bitch. He’s a jock. He’s a weirdo. He’s real. He’s an illusion. He’s everything. He’s just Damon."

"DAMON DAMON DAMON where do I begin oh jeez I've hyperfixated on this man for a solid 4 years and still going strong. Damon makes me wish that British people are real. That says A LOT. This man created a whole ass ANIMATED BAND WITH A SHIT TON OF LORE as a SIDE HUSTLE??? Not to mention, what other man has collaborated with Stevie Nicks, MF DOOM, Del the Funky Homosapien, Snoop Dogg, AND Beck?! People, we're literally in the presence of a god. And he's STILL GOING. Anyways, TL;DR, damon is so so so neat and cool and he should definitely win this competition. Thank you."

"Okay 90s Damon is The Perfect Boy yes yes, but the people who parrot the Daily Mail and say "he's ugly now" will never understand. I would still suck every drop from him on his deathbed."

"Vote for whoever you want to. But Damon is so pretty."

"i did not spend hours admiring this beautiful man's face on pinterest just to see him lose."

"Damon Albarn just brings me joy. When I'm watching him perform, following along as the camera lingers on and adores his pretty face, I get butterflies like I'm 15 again. It's nice to still feel that totally unguarded giddiness sometimes."

"God let the intrusive thoughts win making Damon. What if he's a beautiful blond twink with eyes like saucers and dick to his knees, he reads Herman Hesse and plays footie and is insufferable about both, he'll be the most prolific musician of his generation and write operas and seminal albums in 5 different genres and also he's gonna be the dumbest bitch alive? He'll also be kinda bi, but only kinda. And send."

"when i found out about his existence, my life was changed forever. i wish i could use him like the hannah montana boot milk pillow and chuck him at the wall so he makes a loud thud"

"Think of the drama and anon fights it'll cause if Damon wins it all! And think of how quiet it'll get after Damon's out. You'll miss him when he's gone, like memories of a noisy house years after it's grown silent. Choose Damon, and keep the messy train chugging."

"Even the Gallagher brothers have the hots for him."

"Kiss kiss I love him also you can't vote for any of the Seattle men they're literally copy and paste it's not fair. We need Brit representation"

"I want to take care of him, I want to provide for him. I need to gauge his baby blue puppy dog orbs out to I can clean them with wood varnish, paint shades of Pantone 320 C in his eyes, spray eau de parfume by dior in them and sew it back into his eyes like that scene in Toy Story 2."

"Seeing as simply filling the page with ‘Damon’ written 10000000 times isn’t going to cut it 😅 may I admit/submit: I DO have him tattooed on my being (no descriptive, is this anon?); he’s inspired somewhat unhinged late night/early morning fandom conversations in which I’ve served as ‘parish’ priest hearing confessions from all manner of folk about what they’d like to do to him/receive from him; sadly I lost an essay where I detailed why the letters that make up his name suit him so well, and described him as the hot caramel sauce to Graham’s cool vanilla ice cream. He’s a faerie princess with a nose that makes people weep and a voice that feels like the warmest home and he gives amazing hugs. He loves trains and chickens and his tuxedo cat. He’s annoying and sweet and somewhat unhinged and his music saves people and all this is on top of that fantastic dick. He’s a dream yet very real and we’re fucking blessed to be on earth at the same time as him, amen"

"Damon Albarn was a beautiful, beautiful boy. The world saw that, regardless of if every individual reading this has the same taste in men; it felt like a truth of the universe at the time. They don't make celebrities that angelic in face and erratic in personality anymore."

"I need to touch his eyebrows, nose and prostate just one time JUST ONE TIME COME ON"

Random Astrology Observation

The fact that Mars is in the first house suggests that confidence, physique, and self-image are highly valued. These people appear to focus their energy on keeping up a powerful, alluring persona. Being eager to give people more self-assurance points to a helpful and inspiring personality.

Mars's position in the ninth house presents an exciting and daring image. The love of adventure, philosophy, and travel fits very well with this placement's expansive character.

There is nothing that the West will despise more than the people having hope. There is a deep rooted hatred for hope in the very essence of Capitalism. It hates when we create, when we feed one another, when we take care of our elderly and youth, it spits in our faces when we take care of ourselves. If it cannot be packaged up and monetised, it will be torn apart and destroyed.

So cook your friends a meal, start painting more, use your local library, donate old clothes instead of selling them, show up to rallies and protests, make music with your friends for the hell of it, volunteer at a soup kitchen. Think not only for yourself, but for the community in which you operate in.

The world is not cruel, it is not unjust, not if we do our part. Have hope, grip onto it, with everything that you do. Do not let the global superpowers that taunt us, destroy you. For Palestine, for the future, for the world we are yet to see.

❝ Not all mysteries... ❞

Some mysteries, beyond man, have no logic, have no fate. In the face of such, keep your wits close, but do not trust them. Trust not yourself, nor your senses. Your time, nor your wit.

For where time has stopped, but its flow has no end. For when passion calls, but hate runs deep.

Heed this warning, and do not wait. For laws of nature and laws of man. Have no logic, and have no weight."

❝ ...can be explained by the logic of man. ❞
