I love Anakin Skywalker's disaster grandson. Ben Solo inherited Anakin's flair for the dark and dramatic.

does anyone have that one painting with the ghosts standing in the water?

[cuuno-moved]

like theyre in the water and they're staring off to the side and there's something so very wrong about it and they're bending over and trailing along like deer in the headlights but you can't see what they're staring at which might make it even scarier

"People just don't want to work anymore! That's why I can't find employees!"

[whatbigotspost]

While not surprising behavior from an Asshole Boss, this shit still boils my blood. This person did their work effectively enough to rank first in an internal system, but old Asshole Boss here has to be nitpicky about a REASONABLE accommodation taken for safety and basic physical comfort. So a top performer is put in a situation of feeling like shit just because the boss wants things done their particular special way. This is like the managerial equivalent of cutting off your nose to spite your face. Nevermind the fact that this Asshole Boss should be FIRST consulting the shift leader they've allegedly entrusted with leadership authority right off the bat to understand what happened so that the employee didn't even get this bullshit communication.

Asshole Bosses will be so fucking horrific they tank their own businesses, but blame workers. It's beyond infuriating.

[arewelemmings]

This kind of shit happens in American businesses everywhere, and especially in non-union jobs. I watched my own work experience deteriorate steadily as layer after layer of this kind of corporate thinking kept eroding the very foundation of the businesses they were allegedly running. I watched new employees coming in, not knowing how much better the work environment used to be, and putting up with shit that they didn't know to recognize as shit. I finally got to retire out of the mess, but it's still a frustrating shithole that corporate dresses up and packages as, "good, honest work." It's not. It's exploitation, pure and simple. And it needs to be rectified.

i don’t think violence, or greed are the roots of human nature. i think warping looms and making soups are.

[womenintheirwebs-archived]

everyone is zeroing on the soup part which is nice but weaving has been around for at least 12,000 years (more like 30,000 years but yee). weaving is one of the first technologies that human beings developed and perfected and i think that’s neat.

How 2020 (and Harry Styles) Saved the Guitar

A year ago, the guitar was in dire straits. With songs like Travis Scott’s “Sicko Mode,” Ariana Grande’s “7 Rings,” Lizzo’s “Truth Hurts” and Panic! At the Disco’s “High Hopes” among the most consumed of 2019, programmed beats and horns were the sonic flavors of popular music. Sure, there were outliers but as the rock and alternative genres embraced artists like Billie Eilish, whose innovative music made the traditional band approach feel outdated, the days of chords and solos seemed numbered if not headed towards irrelevance.

Then came the coronavirus pandemic and things changed. Forced to perform from home or in rooms not intended for live music during lockdown, many artists went back to basics and out came the trusty six-string.

At the same time, there was an electric guitar solo being heard on one of the most-played songs in the U.S. Harry Styles’ “Adore You,” which has logged 1.1 million radio spins in 2020, according to Mediabase, and has been streamed more than 400 million times, per Alpha Data, features the playing of Kid Harpoon (real name: Tom Hull), Styles’ friend and producer, who handled the guitar parts for much of the Brit’s excellent “Fine Line” album, released in Dec. 2019. As it turns out, the melody of the solo, which also serves as the bridge to “Adore You,” was first hummed by Styles for Hull to emulate. “I did it with my mouth into a microphone,” Styles told Variety in October. “And then Tom sent me this video trying to get it to sound the same. He spent a couple of hours getting it.”

Why include a guitar solo when most pop songs would never dare? “I feel it’s kind of like ‘La La Land’ saving jazz — only for rock ‘n’ roll,” Styles cracked when posed with the question. But more seriously speaking, Variety‘s Hitmaker of the Year added: “I’m not a spearheader of the movement, like, ‘Let’s bring back guitars.’ There’s plenty of times when [a song] doesn’t sound better with a guitar, and you don’t use it. But a lot of the references I grew up with have guitars; and it’s the first instrument I played, so it makes sense that I would like the sound of them more. I don’t think the guitar is dying. Guitars are great and always have been.”

[...] In the case of Styles’ 2020 successes, which also include the ubiquitous “Watermelon Sugar,” his producer further explained that, while aware of what was reacting on the charts at the time they were recording, Styles wasn’t about to chase the trends. Said Tom Hull: “We [thought], we can’t play the commercial game in terms of what’s happening right now. What we can do is make music that really resonates with us. There’s no blueprint. You just have faith. We love records from the ’70s and ’80s; weird prog rock music that might be a seven-minute instrumental; then you’re listening to Shania Twain, like, ‘This is awesome, too.’ The goal was to make something we will always love, and if it completely flops commercially, at least we know we love it. We have that.”

If I’m not mistaken, Harry didn’t tweet “It’s 2020” last New Years and we all know how that went so if anyone would like to inform him he has to tweet, this is important, thanks
