Live on April 19th: live simultaneous cringe compilations
Live on April 19th: the professor you're glad you don't have and the professor you wish you had debate about something basically tangential to either's appeal or focus, and one of them will be entertaining.
April 19th: Shitty Campbell vs Cocaine Lacan. (It's obvious who will win, but it's equally obvious that the loser will just claim to have won & his fans will believe him, just like they did every other time.)
Conspiracy theory: the Titanic didn't sink because it was swapped with a replica of the Titanic from the future in order to hide evidence from the Philidelphia experiment
Band name of the day: the power of mediocrity
Pistol Opera is fucking wild. I understood just enough of the symbolism to recognize that I understood almost none of the symbolism.
There's a tendency, when we don't have a rational understanding of something, to classify it as only capable of IRrational understanding -- i.e. pattern matching. Occasionally, this is the only practical solution in the short term.
Just because a machine's component parts are human beings doesn't make it any less technical: it merely grows new and interesting complexities and failure modes, a careful and accurate understanding of which is even more valuable.

It absolutely shocked me when, in a documentary about their history, Kurt refered to Information Society as 'disco', but in retrospect it makes perfect sense: the early 80s was right next to the late 70s, literally.
An anime being 'big in america' is like a punk band being 'big in japan': a common but rarely intentional side effect of globalization, notable mostly as trivia.

Bad idea of the day: One of those franchise-themed fighting games, except it's a rap battle. You get dealt a hand of possible lines, with points for internal rhyme and novelty, & multipliers for referencing previous lines & opponent backstory. External rhymes are combo attacks
DomeKano is like the Mayoiga of harem-drama and I love it.
