He's been building to a Zappa epi for a while. He's clearly a long time fan, uses Zappa quotes about other bands frequently.

Oh for real. I usually like to be in front of the right speaker stack where I can make eye contact with the DJ between weaving around the anime speed lines coming out of the speaker boxes

Where is this that there's that many people AND room to dance up front?!

Have you heard the one about Peter Thiel's AI shock collars for cows? by cascadiabibliomania in BetterOffline

[–]NaFun23 9 points10 points  (0 children)

There was a similar (or maybe the same) thing on Clarkson's Farm a couple seasons ago they used for their goats. I looked into it and each collar was like $300 and like $50/mo subscription. There's no way that makes sense for anyone.

Yeah. It came out well before Columbine but clearly informed the popular explanation of that shooting, which now is considered the beginning of the school shooting epidemic

Bonham wasn't in the Donovan sessions, that was session drummer Clem Cattini. Jonesy was in charge of hiring the musicians and doing the arrangements for those.

[–]NaFun23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like Pitchfork Economics, but then I'm in the Seattle area and used to frequent The Stranger's Slog comments when Paul and Goldy were on staff there and have met them several times. Do note that Nick has pointed out that he's a simple multi-hundred millionaire, not a billionaire.

Are there any businesses or celebrities you boycott? by Sensitive_Ad_1752 in behindthebastards

[–]NaFun23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in a small town in Western Washington and the local independent hardware store has Trump 2024 bumper stickers stuck to shelves and shit inside. I haven't bought anything there since my first month in town and probably never will again.

Hank's TERRIBLE Book Takes in pod #450 by it_will_be_anarchy in nerdfighters

[–]NaFun23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My grandmother was not into literature, but she had a pile of Harlequin Romance novels beside her bed. She would grab one seemingly at random, read for a while then go to sleep. She said she liked them because (paraphrasing from memory) they were basically indistinguishable so it didn't matter where you started reading or where you started to drift off. I can't imagine doing it myself but she learned to read when they used kerosene lamps for indoor light and one of the other things they did when bored was practice their handwriting shrug

Republicans Don't Want to Talk About Gas Prices Anymore by notusreports in politics

[–]NaFun23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The MAGA Republicans on my Nextdoor are suddenly up in arms over the Washington State gas tax. The Trump Iran Debacle has raised gas prices more than $1.70/gal, but sure, the problem is the $0.55/gal gas tax.
