I can't really wrap my mind around how anyone who is pro human could have elected this hateful, amoral, immature, misogynist, narcissistic, vindictive, short-tempered
television personalitycon artist with no experience to be president.There are sick belief systems at play here which is the most troubling thing to me.
Fixed that for ya Omniiii
I mean screw Hillary, etc, but my faith in humanity has taken a huge hit now that people have elevated such a transparently awful "person" to president

This is front and center on the Irish Times today and touches on a lot of the above.
Anyway since this is ostensibly a music forum I now post some salient-hot traxxx for the heads. Good luck my fellow Americans, mind how you go.

The Mohn project they did a few years ago is also pretty good and def chill too!
Studio 1
a kind of related note: check out some of his brother's stuff (one of my fav albums of all time https://www.discogs.com/Kron-Gold-Und-Liebe/master/57340)
Studio 1 is good alright, nice minimal technos. Gonna followt your Reinhie-rec, been meaning to check out some of his material along with a bunch of other Kompakt artists like Dettinger, etc.
Of the Rückverz, Rück 9 is probably my favorite and comes closest to capturing that GAS magic. So lush and time-bending like where the fuck did the last 50 minutes just go? 4 and 10 good too, I'm just not as keen on that detuned german folky stuff woven into those.

Plateau is such a beautiful track. One of my all time favorites.
Indeed, I love how the echoey ping that underpins most of the track suddenly gets slipped a 1/16th off the beat during the buildup, such a subtle and lovely mindfuck in the midst of everything else going on.

I definitely don't think your interpretation is more likely, you're entitled to your opinion, but it's not backed up by any actual facts. The relatively levels of proof required say nothing about the likelihood of either proposition.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. I'm no Rhodes Scholar but colluding with a high profile frienemy superpower while under the eyes of the secret service, media, etc. would require orchestrating a conspiracy of the highest order.
OTOH trolling the election to make the U.S. look foolish and weak requires no such conspiracy, just a couple of 400-lb Sergeis with haxxor skills.
Something about the simplest explanation being the most likely one

Nah dude not dumb at all, seeing where the money is (on who ppl expect to win, not necessarily want to win) is as close to true probability that you'll ever get. Are there Vegas odds on the election though? I thought they can't take bets on shit like that here, but that it's fair game in the UK, like betting on the next England football manager, etc. Probably moot with online gambling 'n whatnot.

This is 100% accurate, me Ma's family is from the hinterlands of Worcester and she was fortunate enough to gtfo there early in life. Some 15 years ago my cousin's then-husband was taken in an armed standoff w/ police (thankfully nobody was hurt)

I don't find this funny*types 'gods2.com' introo rworser*
I'm by no means a huge fan of Megyn Kelly either but this moment alone earned her 100,000 cred points
If it's skeltal chair I apologize.
I don't know if her shot at Hannity is funny per se, but it's spot on and deserved fer sure.
If it's Sam Bee then I dunno, I think overall her show has been pretty decent at cutting through the bullshit and delivering a lol or 2 along the way. I can see how it might not go over as well outside the Jon Stewart tent though.

Can't embed but the exchange between Meeghyn Kally and Newt (Son of Satan, scum of the earth) Gingrich on polls and "reality" is... interesting.

https://www.theguardian.com/media/mind-your-language/2013/aug/16/mind-your-language-apostrophe
Examples of abbreviated words that are sometimes given apostrophes include 'flu (short for influenza), Hallowe'en (All Hallows Evening), and Jo'burg (Johannesburg). These all look a little old-fashioned and you don't need to bother, although I have kept fo'c'sle (forecastle) in the Guardian style guide for nostalgic reasons as it is a survivor from the very first "Style-book of the Manchester Guardian" in 1928.
I guess I've read a lot of linguistically old fashioned books
Funny you mention that, in my city here they have an annual Halloween "spook-tacular" or whatever in the park, and every year they hang the same banner in the same place across the same street to advertise for it. Dunno if they've fixed it yet or not, but for years it said "Saturday's and Sunday's in October" and " featuring hundred's of pumpkin's." I really should try to get a picture of it
But yeah flu has become such a ubiquitous word here that it's taken on a life of it's own, and besides a shitty affliction by any other name is still a shitty affliction, amirite?
This is correct. I think the answer might be to playing something other than guitar on it. Either that or find the right sexy effect that makes the guitar magic. Maybe it's time to bring out the Zvex Fuzzfactory... that thing's an untameable beast, but maybe that's what the song needs.
As watmm's QC I trust you'll make the right decision, just watch out for that sixth sigma, he's a beast too!
Also don't understand why the US is EEUU in Spanish either but I digress
cause in spanish when a word is plural you double its correspondent letter in the acronym (Comisiones Obreras would be CCOO but Comisión Obrera would be CO)
Now I know the deal 4 real, thanks spanish guy! Now if I can just grasp why inanimate objects and other nouns are magically imbued with gender then I'll be all set

^ maybe if is like 11 diff takes of the same written "part" (guitar lead, chord progression, whatev) but in re-reading the op it sounds like there are 11 alternative parts under consideration, I dunno
Yeah the anecdotal thing I always heard about the difference between a cold and 'flu is: You're lying in bed and you spot a £20 note blowing about in your garden. If you have a cold you get up, go outside and get it. If 'flu, it's not even a possibility.
I hope the 'chre never get the 'flu
Is that really how the flu is written where you are or your own vernacular/zaz? I've always though us yanks to be way more superfluous with punctuation (e.g., Mr. not Mr)
I am however disgusted by certain conventions to no use all caps for acronyms (Nasa, Esa, Uefa, Wtf?) Also don't understand why the US is EEUU in Spanish either but I digress
When I was a kid I'd get the flu every year and it was basically a night full of endless puking to the point that my mom would give me a bucket next to my bed, and a few days of having a bad fever and barely being able to eat. I fondly remember the bouts of trying to make it to the bathroom and failing and puking on the door or in my bed.
I hear ya, having never once made it to a toilet as a kid; always mid-sleep straight vomit out the side of my bed with no warning
So our youngest 2-1/2 y.o. daughter apparently got something stuck up her nose, two weeks of blood tinged nasal drip out one nostril, took like 3 doctor visits todiagnose and they still don't know what it is. Now we have full anesthesia outpatient surgery on Monday, just the kind of procedure to assfuck my deductible (and by extension, moi) under pretty much all 'merican "heathcare plans"
Thanks hypercapitalism

I enjoyed watching that evisceration as much as you guys but these things are nothing more than dog 'n pony shows. No real justice was served nor will there be. Not only did dude rake over customers, his solution to the problem was to cut loose a couple thousand low-level grunts for obeying orders/quotas. Basically as a consequence of this fraud, several thousand working class people have have seen their first world life prospects pissed on or flushed down the toilet entirely.
And the regulatory fine for wells fargo of $100-something million? They make that much in atm fees every half hour. And because they have legal resources that dwarf that of any regulatory agency with the nerve to even try to do anything about it, they never ever have to admit any wrongdoing.
The funny thing about greed is that it can never be satiated, wall st and pharma fucks (and the pols they bankroll) gonna keep on fuckin' to the breaking point, and it aint gonna be pretty.
stupid first world problems you're dealing with

My band had the most morale crushing trainwreck at our gig last night. We were the 2nd of 3 acts in the lineup, everything fine through the first two songs, then we get to the 3rd (a waaay-altered Cure cover that we've probably practiced 300+ times and have been gigging out for the last 2 years) and someone's IN THE WRONG FUCKING KEY. Our female vocalist and myself (drummer) just look at each other in horror and after 8 or 10 bars I/we call uncle and just stop. Doesn't help that the neither of our front ppl have the kind of stage presence to laugh it off, joke with the audience, etc. so the awkward silence is palpable.
Then we restart and whoever was in the wrong fucking key is still in the wrong fucking key, only this time there's no stopping, only 3-1/2 minutes of pain and embarrassment. As this point I wanted to kick over the kit, destroy every guitar and bass onstage and walk out into the ocean. And we still had like 9 songs left.
