Posts you had second thought about and decided not to post - put them here

i mean they already have "crotch rockets", right?

it's the logical next step. c'mon, elon. bring TSLA back from the dumps a little? bit of the old pump and dump, yeah? 'cept we're physically pumping this time, babaaaaayy!

(oh, might have forgotten to mention that one of the crotch cannon's available add-ons is a motor that exists solely to replicate the sound of a revving harley davidson and emit coal exhaust. for the proper gentleman.)

(so basically the rest of the story is elon musk was in on it the whole time, invents crotch cannon, becomes a politician, takes over world, everyone loses lol. the end.)

(also maybe a foregone conclusion, but no girls allowed in any of this kickassery. back to the birthing hive with you, lady!)

-interruption for reality: this is how a a crazy person deals with extremely bad news. sorry if my angry cynical toilet humor is upsetting. i figure: it's already gotten worse than i had ever imagined, might as well go extreme and have a laugh. i don't know how else to process anything. i'll shut up now.-

ts: too much media coverage of kate bush vs. too much media coverage of glastonbury

either way it’s a nightmare innit

i mean they're both avoidable but still

Both are areas where there could be interesting things to say, but all the coverage consistently misses all opportunities.

In the case of Glastonbury, journos are shamelessly turning out the same articles every time.

transistor is actually a pretty cool album. some amazing vocal harmonies.

It seems some men just can't restrain themselves when they hear that phrase: On the Basis of Sex.

these are fascinating questions, have you tried being a stoned teenager sitting in on a political theory class

and on top of that they won't stop sliding into my dms asking _me_ to help

The idea that Native Americans were pastoral hippie children really needs to fucking die.

Who is saying this

and here it is again with peter hammill and robert fripp

Honestly, an adult starting a complaint with “I’m allowed…” regarding expressing an opinion should be treated as the embarrassment it is.

i can easily make a list of, you know, what I'm gonna do it right here, I'm gonna make a list of awesome songs that I love that use that slur but I'm gonna replace it with the non-offensive term:

An Albatross - Cosmic Romani
Bill Evans - Dream Romani
Bob Dylan - Went To See the Romani Man
Chubby Checker - Romani
Curtis Mayfield - Romani Woman
Damon - Song of a Romani
Donovan - The Enchanted Romani
Eddie South - Black Romani
Erroll Garner - Romani In My Soul
The Firebirds - Romani Fire
Fotheringay - Romani Davey
James P. Johnson - Romani Blues
Jimi Hendrix - Romani Eyes
Kingdom Come - Romani
Miriam Backhouse - Romani Without a Road
The Orkustra - Romani Odyssey
RD Burman - Romani Dance
Santana - Black Magic Woman/Romani Queen
Tim Buckley - Romani Woman

pastoral hippies, mostly

weird, that

xp if you’re so bothered by the slur, why didn’t you say anything? Would you necessarily recognise a Romani person by sight? Lots of people have ancestry and don’t disclose it openly.

what thread?

i'm writing about a complicated situation where i'm not necessarily in the right, like, i'm deliberately making myself vulnerable and not portraying myself as someone who is wise and knows everything, and you're asking me if i might possibly be wrong here, yeah, that's the underlying point i'm trying to get it, i _don't_ know everything and i _do_ get it wrong sometimes and there is a good argument that i got it wrong here. i'm definitely open to, like, particularly if someone who _is_ of romani origin feels _comfortable_, like, nobody's _obligated_ to do it, but if somebody with lived experience that i don't feels comfortable educating me on how i got it wrong, i'm really open to that!

I understand and agree with all that, I just didn’t get the part of the post where you decided not to say anything because you didn’t think there were any Romani people there. Surely it is still racist either way?

I for one support the effort to cancel Stevie Nicks no matter the method

did you get too many Stevie Nicks inspired dog photos?

you know what other movie had impressive crowd scenes

baby was a vegetarian

The fair was in town this weekend & there was a car parked round our way with the vanity plate G7 PSY

xps yeah sorry, I’m really not interested in having a go at you, just that part of the post made me not understand that you meant. Sorry about this.

no worries, i don't take it that way. i just used to be the kinda person where it was VERY IMPORTANT that everybody UNDERSTAND what i'm ACTUALLY SAYING and nowadays it's more, you know, i do my best but if i don't always communicate well it's not the end of the world. we cool.

Thank you, I felt really bad about my posts reading back and I was too hard on you. That attitude is a better way to be.

Just say it, man

triumph of the lol

lmao

That joke is better than Hitler

damn well be sure to keep ilx updated on stock market trading tips at least

I would give money to a child specifically so it could purchase heroin before I would give money to any politician ever.

call that harm reduction

it's amazing how you do nothing but restate the obvious, yet still think that it's somehow worth posting

more of a "branlette" iirc

keep waiting for the big breakthrough so we can all sing Sondheim tunes at the bar and feel better

a spin off peppered with pop psychiatry and privilege. this thread is Frasier.

Mark s refuses to watch Frasier because of Daphne. True story.

which Sondheim? ... I regret that my life choices have fucked up my voice so I can't do Amy's part in "Not Getting Married Today" anymore, but I could likely do a pretty stellar version of "Ladies Who Lunch"

I mean Daphne's bad but really?

Like Fraze himself is often more unbearable

*rewinds many many eps in my head*

Ok mark has a point

Roz tho, sigh
