[Get your game on!]

Hi. I have a very, very, very annoying teen gamer who is JUST SO INCREDIBLY FUCKING LOUD on his headset. It's driving everyone else in the house crazy. My sense is he's not hearing his own outgoing hooting and screeching over the game sounds -- how do I boost his voice level in the headphones so he gets better volume feedback and I don't have to FUCKING KILL HIM? Please.

[RIP someone or another]

Florian Schneider of Kraftwerk. Cancer.

Drunk and maudlin.

It was and it is!

 

[What are you reading now?]

Yeah, didn't The Jackpot feature some nasty plagues? Have you read The Peripheral, which is set in the same fictional universe? I've been revisiting all of Gibson's stuff recently.

Ze 1975?

One of the takeaways from this is that Jonathan Richman is really, spectacularly odd. God bless.

Needed this today. In light of the new music ...

Love you Al, but I am not upvoting tofu.

This is the only song that reliably cheers me up these days.

 

[What are you listening to Part the Third]

Have we had the new Strokes? I really like it, Pitchfork hates it, you decide.

"The New Abnormal" also feels like a pretty prescient album title.

I could not love this any more without taking my pants off.

Sorry, Brent.

RIP Hal.
