choc-E-choc negative repped this post......guess they didn’t agree with the working title?

I promise Side A wasn’t going to be Billy Joel and Side B Elton John!


Sad thing is, the transgender artists I’m referring to, they advised via their social media to destroy everything with their old (male) name and to purchase/play new releases under their new identity. Thing is, they had no plans to re-record their older music. No way I’m smashing my cassettes / cdrs just because. As one fan said, it’s not like you are a better musician just because you now wear makeup and dress feminine......oh the confusion!!!

Working title: Transgenderfication Of The Sausagefication

Yeah, that working title was really kind of offensive - also, it's generally considered impolite to try and divide someone into their pre- and post-transition identities, given there's usually plenty of closet time.

I don't want a mixtape, don't waste your time.

I was in Huntsville at 1am two Friday nights ago barreling North toward Dallas listening to Dylan Houser and noticed it was mastered by Inner Deamons Sausageification. It was just a play on words and I meant NO disrespect.

this cracked me up. I was already imagining you using a real life shark (a hammerhead would be most suitable I guess) then googled and found out it's actually a brand. Now I'm disappointed :D

Son of a gun. I probably could’ve tried this first. But I honestly thought it wouldn’t be enough. For being a medium haired dog...he sheds a lot still. Got that German Shepherd in him. Dat cat too. Not sure if she’s a gray tabby or Russian blue or maybe a bit of both....but yeah. She sheds like a mofo too.

EVOLghost 09.09.2019 11:19 AM

I was also considering one of them robots too...but the cat and dog would probably fuck it up...lol.

i think dyson makes a “pet” model for the hair. plus with animals you need to vacuum furniture, etc. so yeah you need something that won’t just do floors, and won’t clog.

we’re just 2 adults with a couple of houseplants so different story.

back in the cat days we used a shop vac. that stuff will suck in clumps of litter like they’re feathers.

for apartment, the small ridgid shop vac does 5.5hp i think, worth checking out, can be outfitted with bags and/or a hepa filter, and does wet vac with the right accessories.

eta: it’s 5hp. still a beast.

i had the 14 gallon version hahaha. r2d2. behold:

Why would making a mixtape with former identity on Side A and new identity on Side B be considered —dividing— that individuals identity? If fans of their must music enjoy their abilities and musicianship......how is that impolite?

choc e-Claire 09.11.2019 01:17 AM

Well - for a lot of trans people, their identity is something they've been aware of for years, but haven't come out yet. So on records where they have their deadname listed, there's a very good chance that that's not them.

Also, it's extremely rude to knowingly use someone's deadname for them.

I don't feel like we're going to reach a middleground...

Bytor Peltor 09.11.2019 03:25 AM

It will be difficult for you to reach a middle ground with anyone showing interest if you are not willing to carry on a discussion and answer a few questions.

The trans I was referring to, they were touring and releasing cdrs/tapes under their birth identity right up until the transformation. An announcement was made by the artist / label and the he next release was under the new identity.

I hope you take this as an honest question. Do you know of any musical artist who have stopped performing/releasing new material because it’s not truly “them” and will only do so once they have transitioned? If so, I would have more respect for that individual.

they’d better be good!

make & model?

what specs & features?

choc e-Claire 09.14.2019 01:31 AM

Sony WH-XB900N, very bass heavy, long battery life. They're pretty damn good so far, hopefully they last.

!@#$%! 09.14.2019 07:06 AM

ah, they’re noise cancelling! hence the price....

i got so e bluetooth marshalls on sale for like $75 last year. small, too tight, but i kept them somehow (probably a mistake)

i used to have sony mdr7506’s, great monitor headphones and supercomfortable. unfortunately they got destroyed somewhere... should probably get new ones. but these days of disappearing audio jacks i am not sure though haha,

sounds useless and a bunch of clutter, but here’s a real question for you elon (lmao) (but im serious)

if compressed air tools last longer than battery tools, why aren’t you making compressed air cars instead of lithium-eating ones? fill-up could be as quick as swapping a cartridge. tank integrity could be easily monitored by chip.

eh?

just asking...

also think of the glam factor, who wants to drive a farting machine? dry farts, not even the funny ones.

yeah, i can't pitch that to hollywood celebs.

seriously? Wiki disagrees. The Dutch do learn English as second language in high schools, plus there are more and more expats and foreign students etc that don't speak Dutch. And at e.g. universities the courses are more and more in English. But still, I doubt that there are more Dutch people speaking English than Canadians


lol, I learned over the weekend that there are more sheep in Australia than there are humans :D

The town my grandparents live in used to call itself the wool capital of the world, and every year holds Sheepvention - which is as much fun as it sounds.

Saw my ex tonight. She kind of slipped and mentioned she’s been seeing someone.

Oh. Ok. I get it, she’s gonna move on...but I still feel it’s early. I almost don’t believe it.

!@#$%! 09.21.2019 06:14 AM

dang. just say no man.

(and i thought she had stayed back in wa)

EVOLghost 09.21.2019 02:45 PM

Yeah...I really need to be firm with that...and I wasn’t even expecting to have feelings like I do now. I hate it...

She came back too....but it’s been pretty ok. Just staying clear from each other...except for random calls or whatever. But the calls were civil and pretty good. But last night fucked me up to be honest. I’m not handling it well right now. I’m gonna go back to sleep for a little longer...

!@#$%! 09.21.2019 02:48 PM

yeah no you have to shut that down bud. no nothing.

sorry but really.

you will ride it out eventually. best wishes.
