"Right team, here are the options from the focus groups, it should be MS...

  • I-Spy
  • Peeping Clippy
  • Privacy Nightmare
  • Torment Nexus...Ahem, sorry, no, but Torment Nexus is already taken for that, you know, 'other', project...
  • Voyeur
  • Recall
  • Surveil
  • Watching You
  • GDPR bait
    So, anything sound good?"

@rtw ha! I do love Pixelfed and although I still use Instagram too (using a side loaded APK that kills the ads), Pixelfed is such a great alternative. Lmk and I will follow it

This is my inbox. I think Google's detector has just given up. I'm not American, have never lived there, and surely can't vote there.

@cory @hl oh nice. Yeah, I will get the occasional call I don't answer. No texts really either though. I've voted in past years, too.

Is it just me or has the quality of new metal music dipped a bit this year? There’s some good stuff but not a lot of absolute standouts for me so far.

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@HailsandAles I'd had that feeling. I only have 2-3 actual metal records on my top 20 for the year so far, the all-genre- nothing beats that Hemorrhoid for me so far. Nekrodawn kinda cool, Witch Vomit.. I mean are we counting Zolle? haha. Maoong I dig, it's like stoner, like High on Fire. But those are mostly it.

For the metal end of year, I have some cooler gross stuff but really, maybe only like 9 or 10 major contenders, and I can't put most of them on my all-genre list. So who even knows. Not even a lot I'm looking forward to that's been announced yet. Hmmm

jake4480,
@jake4480@c.im avatar

@HailsandAles oh yeah- my thing is, so many great EPs come out, but not a lot of full lengths I love. Which makes me REALLY admire the bands that can manage to make amazing full lengths. I know it's tough. I'm thinking of putting that Purulency EP on my top 20 even though it's an EP. I might not even GIVE a fuck hahaha

I saw articles about John Waters struggling to get Liarmouth funded, I wonder if he's considered crowdfunding it. I bet it would work REALLY well. Imagine the donors
