“Sentencing” for having done nothing wrong will be 4 days before the Cardassian Convention. A Radical Bajor backed D.A., who ran on a platform of “I will get Dukat,” reporting to a HIGHLY CONFLICTED Sisko appointed judge, whose decision will determine the future of our Quadrant?
"stoners are such a strong cultural force they took hitler’s birthday away from the neo nazis. the columbine shooting couldn’t even reclaim that date. 420 is for stoners, and god bless them for it."
Hey y'all - DC's revered DIY art space, Rhizome, is looking to buy a new home. Rhizome is an inclusive space that hosts art exhibits, community workshops, and all sorts of AMAZING music, from punk to experimental jazz to psychedelic drone, that isn't gonna be booked in DC's commercial venues.
It's a pillar of the arts community, and if you might be able to throw a few bucks so it can have a forever home, you'd be a freakin' hero to me and countless other art lovers.
@thesizzler@SourceRolls@lizardllama@Phreba@mrcompletely Climate Pledge is rad. I would put it a step or two above MKA but would rather go to Eugene for a show. Key Arena was the worst so I’m glad they turned it around. The Ridgefield shed can be OK, I saw Sabbath there and it ruled. Now that they are having rock shows at the Timbers venue again, I have a secret dream for the phish to play there but that’s a pipe dream.
#hiking up Table Mountain in the Columbia Gorge for the first time yesterday! On the whole, quite a nice hike despite its length, right from a fabulous sunrise, to the clouds being amazing instead of annoying. This mountain is the one that broke in half and crashed down into the Columbia River 600-ish years ago, creating the original Bridge of the Gods, which later collapsed sometime around 1690. 1/4
#NowPlaying - once again missing akron/family & not-missing them by listening to them very loudly (but also still missing miles a lot). noisy & ecstatic. a more cohesive & prankstery album than i remembered. love that they used the extra LP side for bonus chaos. (weirdly, "s/t ii: the cosmic birth & journey of shinju TNT" doesn't seem to be on bandcamp.) @vinylrecords
48 years ago today Brian Eno released "Another Green World," an album so timeless it sounds like it could have been released yesterday. Robert Fripp's soloing on "St. Elmo's Fire" is some of my favorite electric guitar playing by anyone - like a flamethrower that spews Bach. https://youtu.be/AZKch8dZ61w?si=q9W3nAvxlrqmSMaU
NASA is sending a software update to the Voyager 2 spacecraft today!
The patch contains logic to auto-recover from glitches similar to one in May 2022, when the AACS system on Voyager 1 started sending garbled data. The root cause was not fully diagnosed. The patch will be activated/tested on Oct 28. Voyager 1 will be next.
Data will be sent at 16 bps with a 19 kW transmitter using the 70-m dish at @canberradsn.
Distance: 20 billion km; 18:40 light hours
