    By the way, it is known that certain fungi and toxic bugs digest even the hardest plastic fully (search The Guardian articles for examples). You can then eat the resulted fungi.

    But the problem as I understand it is not with plastic per se, but especially toxic components within it, like PFAS, which are used in all types of regular products. This shit is making us infertile and perhaps less man/woman-like too

    Yeah, this shit is the most serious and, like, really solvable ultra-problem we face, not all that other shit. But they'll deal with it tomorrow!

    Not a fan of stand-up method of making statements, but this struck me as insightful when I heard it ages ago

    All attacks on the Tory party are 100% justified, especially now. Anybody who reads the Torygraph is a cunt + look at this article lol, talk about hypocrisy. The lack of self awareness that was required to write this horseshit is astronomical. Priti Patel literally bashed the England team for taking the knee then complains about the racist backlash against the black English player. She's a vile racist cunt and everyone is seeing through this considering her tweet got 16k likes and Tyrone Mings' tweet got 550k likes, but obviously the bourgeois media are scrambling to defend a load of rich racist cunts, especially that dickhead MP Andrew Rosindell who got fucked up online lol. rant over.

    It's subscription-walled. Why do you care so much about some bullshit paper? Is it because you count fooking likes on posts? If anything, getting 1:10 ratio is not indicative of anything you declare to be truthful.

    Racism is overplayed like shit in UK, there are no racists in their political establishment, you are being played like a stupid Commie over a fictional political divide.

    their obsession with Hillary is like a psycho ex-girlfriend whop won't leave you the fuck alone and move on

    "Their obsession" is one lame toilet paper for a merch table in a fooking political conference. Hillary should be in jail is a boomer-tier old meme, a slogan that clearly worked in the TV debate and agitation.

    Also your comment is mysogynistic, some ex-girlfriends tend to not move on from their ex-boyfriends because they're not evolutionary adapted to have many partners unlike males. Being "psycho" is a stronger manifestation of a quite natural reaction. Sexual liberation was a disaster.

    looks like pelosi

    but yeah the hillary/pelosi hate are lame and embarassing tells the reveal one is a duped mark.

    It's quite justified, Hillary/Pelosi are lame and embarassing, maybe too miserable to really hate. They're both shallow bureaucratic drones.

    this thread needs a classic. 

     

    Trump's description is funny at least (oh no! The US president can't be like that!), Obama's just a standard muttering like all US politicians do, imperialist heroes of our world.

    Been replaying elseq and NTS.

    I love that they take their time to develop, explore and create form in NTS and elseq. Long form is underrated. In very long tracks, if done well, you have enough time to be absorbed into an atmosphere more completely and create various sound architectures. And you can take 6 minutes instead of 1 to build it up. A successful 6 minute build up will hit you in a different way, the tension keeps building up and building up and building up. Some people might find those too long or boring but i really enjoy the attitude those kind of tracks, they have very much a journey kind of vibe, it's about how things evolves and build up and resolve organically. When you succeed in doing that for 20 minutes it's an extraordinary experience.

    Underrated is overrated. Long-form often gives Stockholm syndrome to its avid listeners.

    All end is a good example, nobody cared that much when it was at the end of bladelores years ago, then, by virtue of longevity, title and disposition it became this colossus everybody has in their head.

    Historically, when Western composers took on a long-form in the form of symphony for example, it was densely packed by all kinds of movements, which you then could cut out as a shorter piece nicely. The rhythm of life was supposedly way slower, yet they respected the attention. Then, by discovering various folklore practices of the world (from where early minimalism drew heavily, see Giacinto Scelsi or LaMonte Young etc.), it became the norm to dwell on something continuously. The thing is, those practices were author-less multi-generational practices as if carved by evolution, the logic behind it is not easily incorporated into compositions.

    He was delusional. Haven’t heard this tale before:

    delusion is a central part of his psyche.

    I see, experts in delusion. Anyway I was commenting on the certain incident. Again, you can't know what exactly happened there (there was a fight). If this movie depicts it as paranoidal murder or whatever, it's just predictable slander for Varg's having "wrong" views.

    Lords of Chaos - entertaining, but totally whitewashed story of Mayhem, with not a Scandinavian accent in sight. The gore effects were good, like a low budget horror flick, but it's disappointing Varg only served 15 years for viciously hacking his bandmate to death for no reason based in reality. Hammy dialogue at the end too, like "see? now I'm dead"

    Is this your take from the movie? His reason was well articulated by Varg thru the years in prison and after that -- he thought he was gonna get killed first. He may be delusional, but we don't know it. He didn't even claim self-defence in the court as it wasn't a self-defence legally.

    Especially whitewashed is having Cohen play Varg, that's based for sure, the depiction should be unbiased for sure.

    Ripatti - Fun Is Not A Straight Line

    in New & Upcoming Releases

    Posted

    If y'all gonna spin it like that, I have to chip in:

    I like juke as a structure, yet this is bland to me, nothing of note at all. The whole gesture of Ripatti saying he's mad into current US rappers gives me cringe vibes of the archetypical rootless white dude hooked on what has vital energy in it. The fact that he does this while living far from cities on a remote Finnish island is a bit baffling. I guess the internet is good there.

    Nice, though it looks like only the last two ranks have much of a use around here, fellow Veteran. I suggest we pour our energies into them.

    Definitely find it a bit odd though that one of the guys thinks Untilted is their worst release yet (wtf - blasphemy).

    It's pretty understandable since it's comparatively dry and tight, a sore thumb of sorts

    This is classy, all moody and vibing, i really enjoy the crawling chilled groove. Early favourites are the 4th and 7th tracks in their second halves, the central harmonic motifs are properly hypnotising

    What Video Games Are You Currently Playing

    Completed Terminator: Resistance on PC, a sorta low-budget love letter to the Terminator future war as it was shortly depicted in the first film.

    Pretty wooden all around as a linear shooter, though competent at recreating the views and sounds, especially robots. The best part is probably the Infiltrator short mode where you play as Terminator murdering all humans with that red vision mode, again recreated truthfully from the first two Terminators.

    After all the tearing apart of the franchise, leaves mixed feelings as mildly entertaining nostalgia ride. Not Alien: Isolation level of repairing, still more of a cure to the wounds.
