@lardmotel No one will be travelling to the USA. Absolute pariah state.

@ddarc He said it in a radio interview I did in the early 90s. Maybe also elsewhere..

@lardmotel I ain’t reading all that, but yes, most music writing is garbage. And LCD Soundsystem has always been a middle aged hipster boring us with an ersatz version of his record collection.

@lardmotel OK I read a little bit more. The phrase “nostalgia is supposed to be blissful” is so wrong that the writer has no business writing about culture, and should retire in shame.

@lardmotel AFAICT the people who thrive on Mastodon are those who post several times per day about coding (or US politics, although most of those are just cross posting from Bluesky).

@lardmotel That reminds me of a book about blogging from 20yrs ago called ‘Zero Comments’.I feel you. I’ve mostly failed to make new friends here (but at least there are a few old ones:). When I’ve tried engaging here there’s been little if any response. RSD and a shortage of spoons means that I’m not inclined to keep trying, although I probably should, since this place is my last hope for social media.

@lardmotel Alzheimers breakthroughs are like cold fusion. Fingers crossed but I’ll believe it when it actually happens (in humans).

@lardmotel My one old AACTA memory is looking around at the party afterwards and thinking “is that all there is?”. But that was in Melbourne. No doubt the Gold Coast has its own 'flavour’. At least the weather looks nice?

I'm finally reading Discworld (currently on book 15). My previous attempts failed due to the first (and second) books being a disappointing Douglas Adams pastiche.Once I got to the stories featuring Death, and the witches, hints of greatness emerged. From there the quality has steadily improved to the point where I now get why he’s so beloved.But I still don't like Rincewind.#Discworld #TerryPratchett
