A dumping ground for the random memes my devil brain creates instead of doing what I'm supposed to be doing

Our new album is out, it's about our childhood cancer diagnosis and the trauma associated with that.

If you call yourself "radnormal" my assumption is going to be that you are not a safe person for many many many minorities. The implications you are creating by juxtaposing your "good" ideology labeled "normal" against others "evil" ideology labeled "queer" is truly just the canary in the coal mine here.

Radnormal as an ideology is an unwitting tool of fascism. You are incredibly Catholic in your arguments, just calling things problematic instead of sinful.

Hey dude, your living weapon is planting trees that they'll never experience the shade or fruits of, this is either a great sign or a really bad sign. Either way you should probably get that looked at.

I watch on in mournful horror, the gentle *shump* of the vacuum reminiscent of funeral bells, as my vacuum sucks up my perfect sunny side up egg

I think that whenever a company wants to change a recipe they should have to run a randomized double blind study with 1000 autistics who have that particular food as a safe food and it must receive at least a 95% approval rating from those autistics that it's identical in both flavour and texture before they can go through with the change

Tumblrites, the hour has come for us to practice one of our most sacred rituals.

Y'know it's kinda wild how incredibly hostile the holidays are to photosensitive people

Reblog if you're hoping 2011 will be a fresh start.

TIL that the reason lead levels in children’s blood have dropped 85% in the past thirty years is because of an unknown scientist who fought car companies to end leaded gasoline. He also removed it from paint, suggested its removal from pipes, and campaigned for the removal of lead solder from cans.

Yep.  It also correlates extremely strongly with an increasing decrease of violent crime.  One of the symptoms of low level constant lead exposure is increased aggression and volatility. 

[kurowrites]

“Unknown scientist”? That was Clair Cameron Patterson.

[solarpunkcast]

Gas companies are still so mad at him he’s “unknown scientist”, know his name

[bogleech]

Daily reminder that health and safety standards like these are what politicians mean when they talk about “deregulation.”

[prismatic-bell]

Patterson died 5 December 1995.

Petition to make his date of death a Tumblr holiday celebrated by talking about cool shit the gas and petroleum industries don’t want us to know about, and fighting to continue his work.

[kittydesade]

Happy Clair Cameron Patterson day!

[ailelie]

Oh, hey, it’s almost Clair Cameron Patterson day!

*Whatever happens to musicians will happen to everybody

I cannot recommend enough that we decouple our music listening from Spotify, and if possible, generally try to just get away from relying on streaming services for our music needs full stop.

It is tremendously convenient to have a streaming service with a consistent account that follows you across devices, I know, but the streaming model has been absolutely terrible for actual working musicians, and it continues to get worse year over year as services enshittify and push harder and harder to replace all those annoying expensive human artists who you have to pay royalties (even if they only ever pay a pittance) with generative AI music that can be shat out infinitely and crowd out the real art.

If you pick your favourite musician and play all of their music continuously on a loop as your ONLY music listening for an entire year on Spotify, you would probably STILL put more money directly in that artist's pocket if you pirated their entire discography and sent them five bucks on Venmo.

If at all possible, buy your music directly from the artists you love. Apple or Amazon ain't much better than Spotify ethically, but a direct sale on those platforms at least ACTUALLY puts some money in the artists' pockets, and if you can buy from them more directly through their websites or something like Bandcamp, so much the better.

It can be annoying to have to maintain a file library on your own devices, rather than relying on the streaming services to organize and make everything available for you, but there are a lot of free music library apps out there you can use to make it easier, and which can often also synchronize your playlists and music libraries across your devices. I personally use MusicBee for music and podcasts, and I'm very happy with it, but there are lots of other options.

It is time to return to the old ways. It is time to rebuild the MP3 libraries.

[theadhdace]

So I'm a really small artist but I do have my music on Spotify and I can tell you that if the 90 unique listeners I've had this year on just Spotify had each payed me just 30 cents I would make more money than I've gotten from the royalties from all the streaming services my music is on (which is a lot) in the past 4 years. I'm looking into other options for getting my music out there now.
