This evening on the Mall
#July4th

@FredKiesche @nyrath And then there’s the Forgotten Futures RPG supplement, complete with Weinbaum’s stories!

K4KUS3I 覚醒 is out now.

Eerie trip-hop, fractured breakbeats and uncanny cyberpunk/mecha dreams — built as one seamless listen from start to finish.

Start at the beginning.
Let it run.
Do not interrupt the awakening.

Folks, I have lil' scripts you'd want to use if you want to export your data from Bandcamp due to, erm, various reasons. The code and a few words on how to run the scripts: https://codefloe.com/glitcx/scripts/src/branch/main/bandcampDataScraper.js

The scripts produce CSV files. Suggestions are welcome. I know it may not be the most convenient way to get your lists (list of albums you have in your collection, items in your wishlist and artists/labels/fan accounts you follow there) from your Bandcamp account, but it's better than nothing (thanks, Bandcamp).

And remember: buy stuff from the artists, especially on Bandcamp Fridays.

The next Bandcamp Friday is August 7th, 2026, from midnight to midnight Pacific time.

I wish I was old enough to vote for this Jimmy Carter guy, he seems like he'd be a good President.

I'm trying to find the Happy Birthday America show I watched as a yout' in 1976. It was hosted by Paul Anka (ha), but had some great stuff in there, there's clips on
https://archive.org/details/@madebycrowell
but not the full show.

Evel Knievel's bit has been scrubbed from the Internet by copyright thieves.

Instead, enjoy this:

I’m old enough to remember the Bicentennial celebrations in 1976. Despite being right after Vietnam and Watergate, most Americans were excited and optimistic. So different from the present.

Thinking about how if Al Gore hadn’t championed the High Performance Computing and Communication Act of 1991, then commercial traffic would not be allowed on the Internet and it would be a weird niche hobby like ham radio

Being an American today feels a lot like having a birthday but your mom got in an accident while driving to visit your dad in the hospital, and your drunk racist neighbor shot your dog the day before.

Maybe next year.

Happy Birthday the USA!

Happy birthday America. You look like shit, take the day off, I think you should see a fascism doctor. You'll be fine, but I'm not visiting for your birthday, sorry. Social Distancing. I still love you, home of the brave.

Blog post: Inspired by the video I just boosted - some honest thoughts on my AI remorse from my experiments earlier in the year.

It was bad, and I have SERIOUS regrets.

Oh, hi, fucking assholes setting off fireworks a night early. Tiny Dog says: FUCK YOU!

It's a rare and exciting day when we're releasing TWO brand new Cthulhu Eternal titles.

"The Blight" is an awesome Jazz Age scenario by Gary Sumpter, set in New Mexico - available now as a PDF in our "Beyond the Miskatonic" series.

Our other newbie is a print title (our sixth flipbook) collecting 3 of our most popular scenarios: Red in Tooth & Claw, Fathoms Below & The White War.
