    This album fits right between my copy of Steve Hauschildt's recent "Non-Lin" and Locust's recent "The Plaintive". All three are hitting me in the heart in complicated ways, accented by the grey, windy fall weather and cold house, personal struggles, work demands, political uncertainty, and the prospect of death. And I couldn't be more grateful for this. 

    thanks for the namedrops. liked Locusts 90s stuff and mark van hoens mego album, defo gonna check them out

    writing about music is really hard for most people.

     

    Here's my review: It's really fucking good, much better than the cover art. not sure about that harmonica.

    its like Zappa said, writing about music is like tap-dancing about kebabs

    I think this album carries a message.
    I listen to the album and I see a progress of situations.
    Or maybe I should stop taking drugs.

    Just say No, to stopping taking drugs

    what? no one was using the term. barr was the first one to bring it up, 5 days after george floyd died, as though anti-fascists were driving the george floyd protests. it was yet another moment when the writing in this show is bad. it was a very obvious and crude move, on barr's part, but the administration operates under the darkness of the idiocy of the dumbest 40%.

    barr spoke of antifa in the context of terrorist activity. here's the final paragraph from barr's may 31 DOJ statement, titled Attorney General William P. Barr's Statement on Riots and Domestic Terrorism

    one of the suspicious things is that it would be incredibly easy for a nefarious DOJ to label anyone they wanted antifa. barr defines the word in a perfectly nondescript way. it basically means nothing, but it wouldn't take much for a barr doj to label you as associated with antifa terrorism.

    here's barr describing, in his own words, what he's talking about when he refers to antifa. (timestamp 45s)

     

    refuse all labels. 'i know you are, but what am i?'

    Interesting. 

    FWIW in my home country the constitution explicitly forbids judicial review of laws enacted by parliament. The reasoning is  parliamentarians are elected and judges are not and the former therefore trump the latter.

    hence forth the phrase 'trump' is as acceptable as i 'hitlered' that art exam

    barr was ready to go with pinning unrest on antifa on may 30. george floyd was killed on may 25. it's like the protests came earlier in the year than they expected, but they figured let's get the antifa stuff going, priming the public, demonizing the nebulous label. it's odd, george floyd, antifa? it was out of nowhere, to everyone, in may, but that label is perfect if you're looking to quash protests over an authoritarian coup. 

    i have no trouble imagining barr announcing martial law due to a contested election. trump's nuts. hannity has said that to people. trump and him talk on the phone daily and hannity tells people he's unwell. i expect this administration to go down kicking and screaming. 

    should people abandon the label antifa then to pull the rug out, OR get celebs to say, 'I am antifa' say beyonce, 'I am antifa'? which is the best way forward?

    I've been saying something similar to that for years - the constant media/press coverage of every stupid thing he does is largely to blame. donnie's in narcissist heaven, spotlight is on him 24/7. 

    in narcissist heaven everyone looks like ivanka, and theyre like totally not related, so you know boys will be boys
