I never understood the #metalcore#bashing
Yes, I was and I am a metalcore guy so probably I'm biased. But statements like: metalcore is not #metal is simply bullshit. There are a lot of #bands out there with really high skills on their respective instruments.
Another one regarding #breakdown : I can tell you from first hand that it's more demanding on the #doublebass than a continuous passage in the same tempo.
It's okay if you don't like it, we're all different. 🤷🏻♂
"Right-wing politicians have launched a bid to block the passing of the #EU’s flagship nature protection law, which scientists have described as a “cornerstone of food security and human health”.
Derailing the law could come at significant cost to farmers, who are facing increasingly uncertain conditions due to climate #breakdown and #biodiversity loss."

Although he didn't go into detail about the specific issues he was facing, the singer said he reached a breaking point "about three weeks ago" and realized he needed professional help.

Weezer Went Full Slayer in the Breakdown on This Song
While they are known for making riveting alternative rock, there's one Weezer song that features the band going full Slayer on a breakdown.
For those of you wondering how the infrared "Castle" shot was made.. 21 vertical shots were taken and stitched together in a big panorama that was then color/perspective corrected. Shot in 720nm IR, Red/Blue channels swapped. As I recall about 5 shots were discarded due to overlap. I like to print big so I do these big panos quite a lot. I knew when I saw this place and the clouds that I had to take the time to do it.

Producer RICK BEATO Analyzes THE BEATLES' Final Song "Now And Then"
"Now And Then," the last Beatles song by John Lennon, refined by Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr, is completed by Paul and Ringo after four decades. Below, Rick Beato breaks down and reacts to the song...
This tribute to iconic #HipHop#samples is so great! Not only replaying all the classic jams, but also how they assembled the #waveforms so you can see what's happening!
"Joe #Biden must declare a climate emergency. And he must do so now" excellent piece by Peter Kalmus in the Guardian
"Biden had the last opportunity of any president to keep the world under 1.5C of heating. Instead he is squandering time we do not have - We’ve passed into a ferocious new phase of global heating with much worse to come. Biden must declare a climate emergency.
I’m terrified by what’s being done to our planet. I’m also fighting to stop it. You, too, should be afraid while also taking the strongest action you can take. There has never been a summer like this in recorded history: shocking ocean heat, deadly land heat, unprecedented fires and smoke, sea ice melting faster than we’ve ever seen or thought possible. I’ve dreaded this depth of #Earth#breakdown for almost two decades, and, like many of my colleagues, I’ve been trying to warn you. As hard as I could. Now it’s here.
And mark my words: it’s all still just getting started. So long as we burn fossil fuels, far, far worse is on the way; and I take zero satisfaction in knowing that this will be proven right, too, with a certainty as non-negotiable and merciless as the physics behind fossil-fueled global heating. Instead, I only feel fury at those in power, and bottomless grief for all that I love. We are losing Earth on our watch. The Amazon rainforest may already be past its tipping point. Coral reefs as we know them will be gone from our planet by mid-century, and possibly much earlier given this surge in sea-surface temperatures. These are cosmic losses. And as a father, I grieve for my children.
Fossil fuels are causing this damage. Therefore, the only way out of this heat nightmare is to end them. No amount of tree planting, recycling, carbon offsetting, or wishful carbon-capture thinking will ever change this. The longer we allow the fossil fuel industry to exist, the more irreversible damage to Earth the people who profit from it will continue to knowingly cause. We are careening toward fossil-fueled heatwaves that will kill over a million people in single events. And it will not plateau there: more fossil fuels, more heat, more death. The only way out is to end fossil fuels.
Biden’s refusal to declare a climate emergency and his eagerness to push new pipelines and new drilling – at an even faster pace than Trump – goes against science, goes against common sense, goes against life on Earth. In the world of politics-as-usual, with its short-term goals and calculus of “safer to follow than to lead”, I suppose there are reasons and rationalizations for this planet-destroying choice. But speaking as a scientist, it seems ignorant and short-sighted. It’s certainly a form of climate denial. And I have no doubt that fossil fuel executives and lobbyists – and those who chose to stand with them – will, in the future, be considered criminals.
Because the stakes could not be greater. Every speck of fossil fuel sold and burnt combusts into carbon dioxide, forcing the planet to heat. Carbon dioxide resides in the atmosphere for a very long time, making the excess heat and other climate impacts basically irreversible on human-relevant timescales. Every bit of extra heat makes climate disasters more frequent, widespread and intense.
Each minute the fossil fuel industry exists, each drilling permit, airplane flight, gallon of gas, fossil fuel ad, lobbyist’s email, takes us further into irreversible heat catastrophe, socially and physically. These floods and fires and heatwaves and crop failures will keep pushing harder against the systems of our society – insurance, real estate, infrastructure, food, water, energy, geopolitics, everything – until at some point, inevitably, the systems will break. Nowhere is safe.
Using executive orders and federal agency rules, and without needing to involve this failure of a Congress, Biden could end new drilling leases on federal lands and waters, block new pipelines and effectively ban fracking. He could unleash a historic education program to counter fossil fuel industry disinformation, using the bully pulpit to build awareness and support. He could prohibit government financing of overseas fossil fuel infrastructure, end energy department fossil-fuel financing programs, ban new fossil-fuel vehicle sales by 2030, prosecute violations by fossil fuel polluters, commit to veto laws granting immunity to such criminals, and more.
...
Biden had the last opportunity of any president to keep the world under 1.5C of heating. Tragically, this opportunity has now almost certainly been squandered. However, Biden could still choose to pivot and prevent, instead of cause, even greater damage. But will he choose to do so? Or will he continue to champion oil executives and their pipelines?"
