I was in a podcast discussion about prog death metal last night, and despite being highly impressed with Cynic's comeback album, Traced in Air, I realized I never dug into their albums after that.Comments
The next album Kindly Bent to Free Us, is actually great. There's some happy-sounding stuff, which I personally find jarring in metal, but tracks like Moon Heart Sun Head have that Cynic prog magic. I think the death metal vocals are completely gone at this point, but the riffs and beats have a feel that you can trace all the way back to Human. -
Man, our school principal is leaving. Our superintendent announced he was leaving months ago. All I can say is things better not change!Comments
Though, of course, there is basically nothing I can do if things happen to change for the worse. -

Wow. Intestine Baalism is still together and played as recently as 2018. Bands like that should definitely record live albums. Or even record live for their normal albums.Comments

I am incredibly amused by this c-c-c-combo breaker subway logo. And I always find it weird that people do all three of these things at the same time:Comments
- Overvalue technicality in art
- Have no idea what art technique is
- Ignore art around them that is highly technical -
The NIMBYs of Paris in 1887:Comments
Are we going to allow all this beauty and tradition to be profaned? Is Paris now to be associated with the grotesque and mercantile imagination of a machine builder, to be defaced and disgraced? Even the commercial Americans would not want this Eiffel Tower which is, without any doubt, a dishonor to Paris. We all know this, everyone says it, everyone is deeply troubled by it. We, the Committee, are but a faint echo of universal sentiment, which is so legitimately outraged.
They’re always a “faint echo of universal sentiment”. -

I remembered to make the eggs for the breakfast sandwich runny, but then used these really large English muffins this time, so I couldn’t really taste it.Comments

I applied to do a stint at the Recurse Center. I had a really hard time deciding whether it made sense for me to do it. The available times aren't convenient because of our summer plans, and I am always hesitant to put effort into applications that may amount to nothing.Comments
I think it will be good for me to learn with people in a group, however, and the application was not actually more than a few hours of careful writing. (I'm a very slow writer when it comes to this kind of thing.)
What could have made it take a really long time is if I had given in to the instinct to clean up everything I had linked in the application — my personal site, Observatory, my resume, GitHub, etc. Just writing that out makes me relieved that I did not.
