@mekkaokereke y'all know this already, but it's good to say anyway: replace "immigrant" or "foreign" with "not-white" and what these literal immigrant foreigners say will be a lot more consistent with what they advocate for
You can't simply take the votes for the Green Party and the Communist Party and add it to the NDP's total but you'd think at least 9 more in that lot wouldn't want the Cons in charge!
Listened to Veruca Salt's American Thighs on vinyl tonight, an album I first bought on cassette about 30 years ago, and I noticed, for the first time ever, Nina (?) singing "happy new year" in the background. I'd always thought she was just vocalizing! It may be the format and setup that brought it out more, but I think it was mostly just me sitting there and paying attention. Found something new after 3 decades. Wow.
I'm seeing (The) Julian Hatfield (Three) play the whole of Become What You Are tonight in the Year of our Lord 2024. Is this real life?
I just came up with a punny blog post title and my giddiness is beyond reason
@nacho the problem is you can almost always get around it, but it takes a lot more code that I don't want to write and maintain, or worse yet, cleverness that might come back and bite me when things change. Ah well.
@nacho I literally said this today
@py blog post time PY - an even deeper dive would be awesome to read 馃槑
Blogged about revisting Frente's Marvin the Album, 30 some odd years later: https://hanson.wtf/2024/09/15/on-marvin-the-album/
On Marvin the Album

I came here bang out 2500 words on one of the best birthday presents I've ever received: the 30th Anniversary release of Frente's Marvin the Album on vinyl. I was going to talk about how it was the first album I ever bought myself, on cassette, from the long defunct Music World in Coquitlam Centre.
