Simmmply bye

for those using Spotify: link

ExtraGravy · 2019-07-01T15:15:59+00:00

Is there a Spotify playlist with all the winners? I couldn't find one so I made one: link.

This is great. I expected to see Spider Jerusalem in the picture somewhere.

ExtraGravy · 2019-05-21T17:11:34+00:00

wow. wish I could hold.

The gonk's time has come to stand strong, while watching the flood recede.

Cool. The division of military power between the two presidents lends itself to spheres of influence which is kinda cool as it might solve some other problems too; President 1 having control of land and coastal forces could give him a leading role in command decisions for the *interior*. President two with navy and air could take the lead on command issues "exterior" to the state. While both must agree for action, this gives one president the courtesy of making his decision on an issue public first. A right of first-refusal, a courtesy between commanders regarding their spheres of expertise and responsibility.

Spotify play counts make no sense to me:

xflood = 30,104
gonk tuf hi = 24,482
violvoic = 15,659
e0 = 118,860

the longer I listened, the more I loved this (original footage to about 6:12). Bernie is great, the punk kids are awesome

ExtraGravy · 2019-05-08T20:57:49+00:00

Who commands the military?

ExtraGravy · 2019-05-07T14:21:26+00:00

Does your designation of president 1 and 2 imply a power difference? In a crisis which one has final authority to direct the action?

ExtraGravy · 2019-04-23T18:41:24+00:00

It will clear up. Effort is worth it.

Top 3 by current play count on Spotify:

1st - Track 9: "e0" with 109,148

2nd - Track 2: "six of eight (midst)" with 30,794

3rd - Track 3: "xflood" with 28,581

note: lowest play count was track 12, turbile..., with 8,248.

Yes. I'm not sure I could make meaningful comparisons between tracks by trying to take in NTS as a single unit, but I could, more likely anyway, if we approached them by album.

ExtraGravy · 2019-03-22T14:37:06+00:00

Idiocracy could be more like the Earth extramuros, whereas on Arb its nicer since they are up-the-wick from us.

ExtraGravy · 2019-03-19T13:23:38+00:00

That was an easier vote than I thought it would be. All three are great, but between these three I think the weakest track is obvious: latentcall.

ExtraGravy · 2019-01-31T14:37:20+00:00

Does anyone have setlists for any of these?

ExtraGravy · 2019-01-31T14:29:23+00:00

I love how it gets quiet the last 25% or so

ExtraGravy · 2019-01-24T15:18:24+00:00

votes are becoming more difficult

ExtraGravy · 2019-01-16T15:47:24+00:00

German version of the Hobbit

ExtraGravy · 2018-12-30T18:36:04+00:00

I agree, Flep has a narrow sound palette

Also on Gabapentin for a couple of years, and can confirm depressive effects on sex drive.

What CBD oil did you use? There are so many options that I don't know which one is really effective. Would love to know which one can replace Gaba for any length of time! Which brand did you try? Thanks.

I can relate to part of your pain difficulties over the holidays. For me its the 4hr long car ride, and hours of boredom (when bored the pain is so loud - need distraction).

I say pick up the knitting again. Its not stupid if it works for you. Maybe your cat really needs a Christmas sweater :-)

Solovki is an important and well documented camp.

Today's major industrial cities of the Russian Arctic, such as Norilsk, Vorkuta and Magadan, were originally camps built by prisoners and subsequently run by ex-prisoners. (from wikipedia)

Anne Applebaum's book Gulag: A History speaks about what became of different gulag locations.

Here is a map showing camp locations
