next album i was given to check out was "the velvet rope" by janet jackson.
i think this has it - the sauce i want out of an album i'll revisit in future!
i'm noticing the hip hop influence and it's hitting right! intriguing thematics in the lyrics as well. my favorite one so far!
mental health check
it's the internet of scams and bad news babeyyyyyy
stevie wonder's "innervisions" is next! way easier on the ears, doesn't shy away from earnest and direct portrayals of life as a marginalized musician in NYC.
great dynamics on this album, and i mean - what could i say about stevie wonder's voice that hasn't been said? the man's incredible.
first album was donny hathaway's "live" album. it had the common flaws live recordings have (very bass-heavy) which made it a bit fatiguing on the ears after a bit - but i found myself liking it a lot by the end.
the 12 minute live version of "the ghetto" especially owned. started the whole thing!
my pal @boundo.bsky.social is getting me into RnB/soul. it's a nice change of pace - forcing me to let my guard down as a listener a bit.
harshness or abrasion in the music is rare; just relax and let the music move you, and note the lyrics! it's hard to accept when you're coming from noise rock...
Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

his albums "wind's poem", "no flashlight", and "night palace" might be good for this!
some of the music of phil elverum (the microphones, mount eerie) has that vibe! it's strongly connected to the planet earth and nature, and takes some black metal influence into it. not sure if his voice is the kind of thing you're looking for, but it'd be worth a try!

I hate American Airlines (and my life right now tbh)
TL;DR: I am out a few hundred bucks because of the airline's godawful cancelation policy and the last week has been god awful for reasons I will not get into.
I just want to recoup what I lost if possible.

i had the honor of doing some playtesting (and helping a bit with event-scripting woes) on this sweet bite-sized jam RPG! it's tough as nails and has a lot of meat to its bones.
give it a whirl!

As of tonight, licenses of trans people across Kansas are being invalidated en masse, enabling the overnight criminalization of an entire group of people for going about our lives. It’s often said you never know when you’re living through history, so let me assure you: that’s what’s happening now.

lrp i had the honor of test-reading that comic by @splendid.land. it made me cry. what an unrestrained encapsulation of the brutality of play in so many of its myriad facets. breathtaking art and such a visceral use of ink.
it's truly a masterpiece.

The Queer Games Bundle was a genuinely important and helpful resource for small queer indie devs in the past 5 years, it's wonderful that such a small team of volunteers was able to keep it up for half a decade and I hope it'll encourage other initiatives like this one to spring into life.
All those Discord alternatives that y'all are trying to push (Stoat, Matrix, Fluxer, Root, etc.) will have to comply with this as well if we don't stop this.
