Pretty sure that I want a Jim Bow and noter/slide for my mountain #dulcimer.

Speaking of tiny hands, there's a special appearance by one in this video where I play all kinds of things through the Audrey II feedback synth (one of the firmware options for the Simple Touch kit I built last week). Super fun, controlled destruction https://youtu.be/l41w2Un2k3M

It's official: I'm recording my new album with Ardour. I've been testing out All The DAWs on Linux, and it's hands down my favorite. Stable, feature rich, and logical.

Started the first project today. The music is ready, time to set it down.

“Karp’s message is loud and clear: My technology will take political capital away from one of your greatest enemies—liberal women with degrees—and give one of your favorite demographics to patronize—working-class men—more political power to transfer to you.”

These fucking women-hating weirdo assholes.

I used to think my nemesis was the finance bro. My mistake. It's the Tech Bro. Specifically, this kind.
