carrie's self-promotion post: there's still time to be the 3rd person to solve, or the 13th or so person to listen to and enjoy, what is universally lauded as the most delectable musical album of the last several months (if not years): that beloved crossword album known only as “Puzzles of 2025”.

just got done listening to the rough mix of [project code name “jazz vamp"] and it sounds so amazing and i am so honored to be a small part of it. probably the best (certainly the most ambitious) project i've been a part of; everyone who likes this kind of music is in for a treat when it comes out

spoilers for the character arc of my life, but as you can see, i was not kidding. thanks for bravely telling my story mikey flans, can't wait for your biopics of my friends Rebecca, Thelma, and Annabelle

rest in peace Walter Koenig, who wrote these lines for his coworkers Shatner and Takei to deliver (Star Trek the Animated Series - S01E07 "The Infinite Vulcan")

i have always really liked voting, i admit it. it's fun to research the ballot questions and to fill in the little bubbles with the pen and to see the random assortment of other people there. the value of democracy aside, i just find it a fun activity that you get to do

Have you noticed, lately, or noticed people around you commenting, that there just seems to be no money anymore. There's no money for companies to make the tv shows you like, the video games you like, the local diner you like shut down, no one you know can find a job. Think about that in context of

my follower count went down over this one :( after going up for Tolstoy posts that no one liked :thinking: but also why did i notice this ): posting really messes up a person

What I'm listening to today: "Riverrun Humbling Allegory", Lauren Bousfield Manic wound of d&b and distorted synths. I think of Lauren Bousfield as sort of the evolutionary link between millennial Soundcloud vaporwave and zoomer YouTube breakcore laurenbousfieldanyev3r.bandcamp.com/track/riverr...

#NewMusicFriday 🧵 Sarah Hennies & Tristan Kasten-Krause, 'Prisoner's Cinema' The sonic equivalent of vantablack. Gongs and singing bowls create a sphere of the unknown as bowed double bass moors us to a reality we fear to face. Pure acoustic doom. sarahhennies.bandcamp.com/album/prison...

It's a Bandcamp Friday and it's (adjacent to) Archiversary and I'm recently unemployed and I want to buy Control Resonant (but it's more likely that I will spend the money on food for my cat) anyway that's my advert sad music dot gay farewell music.iamreeder.com sadmusic.gay

I updated MANDALARAMA with more music! better music! new 3D MODE if you can find it eyesack.itch.io/mandalarama

i ihate to post about ‘politics’ but at this point everyone agrees that the only reason Joanna Newsom’s 5th album isn’t out yet is becuase Gavin’s pressuring the recrod label to stop his weird cousine from being in the news & making him look worse by contrast (he cannot name a single bird), right?

Satie sample in "Near or Far" on the new Carly Rae Jepsen, and she actually seems to understand that the special Satie thing is less "soft gentle unintrusive" than "non-functional tonal harmony", which is pretty cool! good track. some fun chord progressions elsewhere on the album too. thanks Canada

This Bandcamp Friday, you should listen to: iamreeder.bandcamp.com/album/the-ar... But I am a little bit biased still.

saw "Camp Miasma" and the indie cinema put a trailer for "Kwaidan" before it, and i've decreed that from now on every movie must have at least one exterior shot (preferably 15) using handmade matte paintings for backdrops

love the way tim curry always brought a touch more energy than the line or the choreography called for. check out how he skips across the stage here (i didn't know until today that he played the G&S Pirate King! what a career) www.youtube.com/watch?v=jWzq...

this weekend i decided to start learning to play a random Haydn sonata from memory. so far it's been really fun and has soothed some of my art-related anxieties. it'd been way too long since i seriously memorized any music. in general memorizing things you like is so rewarding! recommended

I was honored to do some of the early playtesting for Escape from Wonderland, and i like it a lot. It has a nice balance between open storytelling and some intense and unique gameplay mechanics. If you like TTRPGs, i definitely recommend getting it when it's out, and/or trying the new beta now!
