I didn't think we'd top as a term for the cybertruck but @wobs just taught me "IncEl Camino" and folks...

Anyone know if Discogs is a good place to work? They're hiring. They're not like doomed for some reason or anything, or just laid off all the good people or something? I feel like the people here might know

Recently finished and recommend Shadow Speaker by Nnedi Okorafor aka @nnedi. I haven't read everything she's written, but everything I have read I've liked a lot, so I'll certainly read the second book in this series. She writes everything from "good for adults too YA" like the Binti stories to "very much NOT for youth" like the superb but intense Who Fears Death. Shadow Speaker lies somewhere in between, I'd say, and I enjoyed it a lot.

I hereby declare Sir Hans von Hake the patron anti-saint of effective trolling. Hear me out:

So it's the Holy Roman Empire days before the Reformation and the Catholic Church is at its most corrupt. Pope Whatever the 95th stomps the gas on selling indulgences in order to fund building the big ass Saint Peters building in Rome, and also enrich his cronies. One of the lead cronies is this putz named Tetzel, a corrupt priest who comes up into the HRE selling indulgences

After a long run of disappointments and a lot of reading in other genres I'm finally hitting a run of good modern I can recommend. First across the finish line is The Future by Naomi Alderman. It starts off in a pre-apocalyptic, more hopeful Bill Gibson mode with a highly capable young female protagonist getting dragged into an oligarchic power struggle by means of a Macguffin. Very readable, enjoyable catnip for anyone who despises tech billionaires.

As a young fella just getting into in the late eighties my first impressions of David Sanborn were that he was corny and overly smooth, in an unhip bag I didn't dig with guys like Metheny and the Breckers. Then he blew my fucking mind with the Night Music show and I've respected him ever since. There was almost no really cool weird music on TV in 1988-90 except that show, and man, Night was legit!!! Nick Cave, Bongwater, Pere Ubu, Miles Davis...

The new school has fully arrived with these playoffs, and it's awesome. The LeBron/Curry/Durant era is over, all love and respect to those guys, but the league has moved into the start of a new era. The two western conference series in particular feel super fresh, every team is unique in lineup and style. Love this moment we're in. And the Wemby Spurs aren't even good yet!

In honor of Steve Albini I will listen to nothing but Steely Dan and the #GratefulDead today. There's nothing more #punk than not giving a fuck about some famous asshole's opinions.

So Josh Hart really came over on camera and told Reggie Miller "I think they're saying fuck you" into a hot mic to make sure he didn't miss that the MSG crowd was in fact chanting "FU Reggie"

Disgraceful, amateurish call to make the end of a great game frustrating

If you're in NYC or close by, I recommend that Emergency Group gig I just boosted very highly if you like or are open to instrumental . One of my favorite current groups.

I thought Ant was a year away from taking over a big playoff game against a top quality opponent. The future is now I guess.

Also: what a fucking game!

Finally figured out what specifically the infamously absurd NOOOOO from Vader at the end of the Sith movie reminds me of - it's been bugging me since it first came out. It's got the same enunciation twist at the start of the o sound as the fake (?) Lorne Michaels voice saying "come back with my show" at the start of Robert Smigel's TV Funhouse bits. My overly developed powers of free association strike again #maythe4th

I don't know much about hair dye (except that a lot of y'all look cool) but I do know that a lot of Stuart Semple's Culture Hustle pigments are fucking amazing. And now he's working with something called Blunt to produce a line of colors together. I have no real way to judge but these are probably pretty great

ODY-C by Matt Fraction and Christian Ward

A gender twisted retelling of the Odyssey. Currently unfinished. This is the most innovative, extreme example of I've seen yet in mainstream-ish
