Listened to a heap of Steve Albini produced albums lately, he attracted some awesome bands in the last decade or so that were influenced by his work in the 80s/90s.

Made a playlist of 10 of my favourites recorded and mixed by the legend.

anyone making this argument is 100% missing the point of why apple's ad sucked - it wasn't about the physical items getting destroyed, it was the metaphor of the world's biggest company compressing all the creative, human, cherished things into a boring, soulless computer that it controls and owns and makes all the money on

So we used to have a nanny. When the kid first went to school we had a new parent's information evening where they told us all sorts of boring stuff, some interesting stuff, and concluded with "and after school care is extremely limited so good luck with that goodbye" except said as one word over the space of about a second, the principal then decamped. When we rushed to book afterschool care they could accommodate him Monday, Wednesday and Friday, but not Tuesday or Thursday, so we paid a woman we'll call Jo (because that's her name) to pick him up from school two days a week, and look after him at our place until 6pm. As the years went on, he'd come to get public transport to her house, she'd look after him there while he did homework etc. and bring him home at 6pm. We no longer needed her as of this year, kid is old enough to look after himself.

thinking about working 3 days a week and taking off 4 days a week - the concept of working fewer days than I don't work is appealing to me and I could technically do this, but it would cost me $300-$400 a week ($15-$20k/yr) to pay someone to write the sizzle 2 days a week while I do 3 days a week
