The announcers love to glaze tf out of TJ McConnell. Nothing gets announcers more excited than smaller white guys finding success. “Gritty”, “just knows how to play the game” 🤮

@Phreba he's a fine energy guy role player but yeah the takes are super predictable

@mrcompletely@heads.social avatar

@Phreba oh its definitely a thing. There are def people trying to even it out but you're still much more likely to hear certain positive traits associated with white players, especially "cerebral" and "gutty" and their synonyms, and the whole "plays the right way" thing.

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

I am demised.

I hate getting haircuts. I seem incapable of communicating with hairstylists. Apparently “Don’t take off any length; I’m growing it out” means “Butcher the shit out of my hair.”

@tidmarsh my man I recently for the first time in a decade found someone who can give me a solid cut reliably every time and if she had any idea at all how much I would be willing to pay for that she'd be working me over like a speed bag

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

mrcompletely,
@mrcompletely@heads.social avatar

@bourgwick thanks, I knew there was something out there I couldn't recall. They're hiring a few engineering lead positions, which based on this background likely means one of two things: it's a death spiral and they're losing important people, or they're replacing people who fucked up some of these things over the last couple years.

mrcompletely,
@mrcompletely@heads.social avatar

@bourgwick kind of a downer but imo the most likely business scenario here is that they get sold for the value of the data, or do a partnership, for AI/LLM training. I doubt any buyer cares about the business and they could even scrap it. Low margin retail biz with an antique tech stack isn't worth shit. A giant, extremely rich crowd sourced database is worth a lot.

mrcompletely,
@mrcompletely@heads.social avatar

@friendlybook that seems to be some of it but at least one position is quite senior on the engineering side

mrcompletely,
@mrcompletely@heads.social avatar

@spacefuzz @bourgwick oh totally. I'm reconciled to the compromises of capitalism. There are a few deal breakers I'm looking out for: genuinely lunatic executive leadership and/or those with a snakey golden parachute "pump the value and sell" plan, and companies in an unbreakable financial death spiral. I've played those games. That's what I'm trying to suss out. I'm def applying

Going through a small Meat Puppets playlist I just threw together quickly to boost my mood. It's only three hours long. 😂

Current Meat Puppets lineup. From left to right, Curt's son Elmo on far left, then original drummer Derrick who is now back, Curt and Cris Kirkwood, and new keyboard player Ron Stabinsky. All standing outside in Arizona in front of a bunch of cactus.

@jake4480 I'll def listen to this, because I'm specifically an early Puppets guy and keep meaning to revisit the later material for gems...thanks

No difference between Republicans and Democrats*. No difference at all.

*provided you’re a financially comfortable, straight, white male who won’t feel the consequences of a Republican authoritarian regime

@chopaganda @bethbjammin @Stoneycase blocked that dimwit. I'm not here to be nice Imagine caring whose fucking fault it is? Thanks for chasing the morons into the light I guess

@Stoneycase leftist takeover of the democratic party is the only path there is long term. No one likes it and no one listens, but I've been saying it all along, I've always been right and time just keeps passing. It's not even complicated, just a lot of work and slow. But it has the advantage of actually being plausible
