  • Most of the time, if I’m listening to anything, it’s a playlist of Boards of Canada on shuffle - usually while I work.

    Otherwise, my music taste is pretty stalled these days wrt new music. Unwound got back together and I saw a couple of their shows, one in LA and another in Austin. The Blood Brothers also reunited and I have a ticket to see them in Dec. Melt-Banana just released a new album I haven’t listened to yet.

    My friend’s band, Yuppie Killer, released their discography on streaming sites. They’re a hardcore punk band of expats in South Korea from 2012-2017.

    I play in a band, Constellation, and we’re sending our first album to be mastered this week. Kind of throwback to 90’s post-hardcore like Fugazi (yeah, we got cowbell) and Drive Like Jehu. Really excited about it.


















  • extreme progressives agree there is a magic all encompassing definition of “whiteness”.

    What do you mean by this? Speaking for myself, what I’ve read on the left with respect to “whiteness” has been largely critical of the concept, e.g. that it exists by its function to other and marginalize those deemed non-white. Who are you talking about on the left that affirms a non-reductive concept of whiteness? Because it sounds like you’re both-sides-ing out of ignorance.
