The worse half of digital-native culture is the (inevitable) death of the canonical source, but that only matters if you’re puritan about the bits, so I probably need to get over myself

‘Popular Demand’ off Lupe’s Enemy of the State came on during a walk, and I felt 12 again, sneaking into my dad’s office to use an Ethernet connection and download mixtapes from the whole late-2000s DatPiff ecosystem

(This feels like what hunting down Kojima’s P.T. will be like in 10-20 years, when most of the systems that had it are dead and the ones that survive can’t risk going online)

@shadesofgraham_ PnP? I do hope that’s next

[Francis. @auxinom]

@shadesofgraham_ I feel just okay about the deal but curious - what do you not like about it/him? Timing, profile, or quality?

[Francis. @auxinom]

Yikes.

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Manchester United in advanced talks to sign Youri Tielemans from Aston Villa. All parties in contact as #MUFC try to finalise - 29yo midfielder keen on move. Ederson deal off for now; #MUFC may look to revisit later this summer @TheAthleticFC https://t.co/KbWwD1jxov

(I’d rather get the cheaper signal from standalone songs that announce they’ll be shit right from the start)

[Francis. @auxinom]

The refrain in the first ~90 seconds of ‘What Did I Miss?’ is what makes the song special. I wish there were a way to schedule a stop-and-restart point for individual songs, but it’s also not meta complexity I could justify

[Francis. @auxinom]

A lot of mainstream music needs fewer beat switches since the uneven ones just add weak stretches that contaminate the rest

[Francis. @auxinom]

The opening tweet was bad enough already in framing it (crudely) as a virtue problem that absorbs the structural one (think: funding contractions)…

Maybe I just need to follow F1

[Francis. @auxinom]

I’ve been interested in performance cars lately, but with a bit of maintenance anxiety, which says far more about my confidence in my own clumsiness than about how demanding they (probably) are

[Francis. @auxinom]

It’s actually a miracle that I’m interested in cars at all
