Tame Impala’s “Solitude is Bliss”

Looks like mądry Polak po szkodzie isn’t always the case

Gerrymandered Congress, no campaign finance laws, bought and paid for judiciary - Allow us to introduce ourselves

he thinks he knows the person who did it but he censors their name

A smarter/more caffeinated person than me could say something really intelligent about how there’s a whole motif running throughout all of Kendrick’s work about knowing things you can’t talk about and how we have to suppress important parts of our histories and leave traumas unprocessed to fit into society and how the official stories of things leave out events and people because of this

Hell yeah, love AC, they’re such a weird drum circle of a band that sounds like they’re about to fly out of control any moment but actually has a weird complex logic to everything they do. Also, they have some of the catchiest and most earnest vocals that just always put a smile on my face.

Adding synths and stuff to their sound was definitely a great way to grow it to something stadium sized and make it totally unique, but their earlier smaller stuff like We Tigers and Grass are always gonna be super nostalgic for me.

I have never felt so seen by a piece of media as I did when I got the solution to this thought

Nice, Glass’s work is so hypnotizing and wonderful, and I actually fell into it from being a fan of sample based things like turntabling and electronic genres, but it started me towards having an appreciation of what classical and opera were capable of

Floe and Night Train* still just blow my mind no matter how many times I listen to them

*That one basically requires the lore to begin to make any sense (and that just makes me love it even more)

e; found a better video for the Einstein on the Beach piece

Ah, that does help, thanks!

The fact that they tried to pull this with them of all bands might top Paul Ryan’s “I love Rage Against the Machine” moment

Tennessee spends time declaring its official state amphibian the Tennessee cave salamander - I sleep

Tennessee attempts to recognize Grammy award winning artist who lives in their state - real shit?!

Hell yeah, the amount of genius crammed in to Donuts’ 43 minutes is completely mind blowing, before you even consider the fact that Dilla was literally on his death bed when he was putting it together. It’s definitely one of my favorites of all time and probably did more to change how I hear music than any other single thing I can think of.

Just one of those brilliant moments - the sample flip on Don’t Cry

Few decades from now there’s gonna be a four part PBS special narrated by Ken Burns about the impact those games had

You didn’t have to call him out

Well, so long as they’re not migrants anyway

Yeah, it’s not just his supporters who will get hurt if he gets power again

There are some social media communities where that’d get you removed, which is dumb as fuck but I can’t be mad at OP because their meme got laundered through a place with shitty mods

The same way punk rock got popular after Jimi Hendrix and a bunch of other people pushed the envelope in terms of technical musicianship, people wanted something new and the logical place to go was into making something simpler and more aggressive

Also, Milwaukee’s Public Schools are all closed because of the heat today

Yep, here’s an NPR article laying out all the details for the curious

Maybe more senior judges at her courthouse could step in, but most likely it’s going to have to be appealed to the 11th circuit

… what if Judge Cannon does not recuse herself? One possibility that should be explored is for the chief judge of the district court, Chief Judge Cecilia Altonaga, to reassign the case pursuant to the court’s power under federal law to “assign … cases so far as [local] rules and orders do not otherwise prescribe.” Nothing in the Southern District of Florida’s local rules or internal operating procedures is to the contrary. Those local procedures provide for Judge Cannon and her colleagues to agree to transfer the case to another judge. The chief judge should have a vigorous discussion with her under that provision. If Judge Cannon demurs, though, the rules are silent about what happens next and so the federal statute comes into play for the chief judge to reassign the case. She too can point to logistical concerns, including the security ones, in reassigning it to a judge in Miami— saving face for Judge Cannon.

We recognize that such intervention by the chief judge is not an everyday occurrence. If it doesn’t happen, though, there are other options. The more likely possibility here if the Southern District of Florida chooses not to deal with this issue is that the 11th Circuit should be called upon to reassign the case to a different judge at the earliest opportunity. As the case is lodged at the trial court level and is not before the circuit at the moment, that reassignment would likely come only as part of a reversal on appeal of one of Judge Cannon’s decisions.

Under binding 11th Circuit precedents a case should be reassigned to a different judge if, among other reasons, the original judge would have “difficulty” setting aside her previous views and findings and reassignment would not result in a waste of judicial resources. Those factors clearly weigh in favor of reassignment here, due to the difficulties that Judge Cannon will likely face in diverging from her previous unorthodox and wrongful rulings benefiting Trump.
