Yeah. I gave shit to Waater who was trying to book and promote the new Satori. It's like, dude. Really? Goa Trance is a tiny little genre world. If you want to use a name from an act outside of this realm, you wanna crib the name Skrillex or whatever, go for it; but this is Goa and there is one Green Nuns of the Revolution. I don't care if they haven't released a new track in a decade (or two), there is one Slide, Satori, Hallucinogen, Etnica, etc etc etc. Fuck these unoriginal tossers.

You think? Most people I've spoken with didn't like season 2 of Mr Robot. I liked it a lot. I didn't think it was better than the first season though. Season 1 felt like a contained story and arc Season 2 felt like the first act in a three act story (which I think it was, since at the time of making season 2, they were planning on four or five seasons) So season 2 had a bunch of great shit, but it didn't feel complete and meandered a lot throughout. Westworld was fun Atlanta was fantastic People of Earth (a comedy about an AA-type meeting for people who have been abducted by aliens) Adam Ruins Everything is good critical thinking educational humor teevee

It seems like your collection is maybe only 400 deep. You just have lots of doubles and triples of things... lol

lololololololol Self Oscillation is a good album, but three copies of it... really?

I've always preferred the simplicity of the Siskel & Ebert thumbs-up or thumbs-down rating system. Trying to qualify a rating, especially when so much great music is relative to mood and timing of listening, just seems rife with error.

Thanks for the downloadable audio link! I can't stand having to stream mixes. I generally listen in my car or on my phone. Just much nicer this way =)

the goa constrictor replied to Scandinasia's topic in Artist News and Labels announcements
Are there any dynamics in here? I didn't discern any in my quick preview of a couple of tracks... -

the goa constrictor replied to NHJO__HYENNRO's topic in Off Topic
Congratulation indeed!!! (these are my favorite topics) -
Yeah, I agree with healium. Ticon started as very minimal dark tuba trance.

Actively and intentionally not reading the Drumpf or USA threads...

People are speaking People's houses are being vandalized with swastikas. People I know and in my community. People are being threatened and harassed. You know so little about me, your "put your money where your mouth is" comment is just ridiculous. I appreciate your stereotyping of me though. It's comical. Regardless, we will keep fighting the appointments of white nationalists, racists, bigots, xenophobes, islamophobes, and those who wish to strip women, non-gender-binary, and non-heterosexual members of our community of their rights and dignities as citizens. We will be vocal and we will protect each other throughout this ordeal.

What? I never said that evil doesn't exist.

That's a tangible representation of the increase of REPORTED hate crimes. Any increase of hate and assault is not good. ...geee, it was only four women who got raped. that's less than half of one percent. it doesn't matter... grrrrr... this thread makes me sick. Despicable.

I already posted that. I guess he just likes to ignore data.

I'm sorry, but this Everything Will Be Fine, Just, Like, Zen It Out Bro is fucking bullshit. I'm sensing a serious tone of privilege in your comments. The number of hate crimes, since the election, have risen dramatically. Violence against women, people of color, people of different religious and ethnic backgrounds, homosexuals, transgender, and non-conformists in general, have exploded. This is not good and is not something to watch passively. What kind of sick person is okay with violence upon anyone? Not only that, but Trump has named Steve Bannon, the executive chairman of Breitbart News, as “chief strategist and senior counselor” to the president. He will be one of Drumpf’s closest advisers and, one can presume, one of the most powerful people in America. In his role at Breitbart, he promoted and legitimized the modern white supremacist movement, sometimes euphemistically referred to as the “alt-right.” Ben Shapiro, who worked alongside Bannon for four years as Breitbart’s Editor-at-Large, wrote that Bannon “openly embraced the white supremacist alt-right.” According to Shapiro, “Breitbart has become the alt-right go-to website… pushing white ethno-nationalism as a legitimate response to political correctness, and the comment section turning into a cesspool for white supremacist mememakers.” Shapiro describes Bannon as “a vindictive, nasty figure, infamous for verbally abusing supposed friends and threatening enemies.” Look, this is not just someone like Mitt Romney, or even George W Bush coming into office. This is a bit more serious, not only of intent, but of the roll back of safety and protections of the people who need them the most. This isn't some shit metaphor for Goa trance.

One who cares about others And we can control this. By standing up for one another, drawing a hard and fast line in the sand regarding these abhorrent behaviors and thoughts, and working together collectively to correct this bullshit as soon as possible. Are you not getting this? The racists, misogynists, xenophobes, and nationalists have been here this whole time but have been kept in check lately. If Trump were to, tomorrow, say, "now now, we need to take care of one another and not be divisive" it won't make a lick of difference. All of those people came out of the word work and have felt the power of being an abuser and justified in actions, thanks to his words, and they are not going to just forget and turn the other cheek. This isn't some manipulation of some illuminati pitting people against people. This is a faction of people who do not believe that others are equals, some don't think the others should even live. This is their moral beliefs. It's not going to change if Trump says anything different. Trump didn't invent these people. He gave them the power to show their faces.

https://www.splcenter.org/hatewatch/2016/11/11/over-200-incidents-hateful-harassment-and-intimidation-election-day Pulling from news reports, social media, and direct submissions at the Southern Poverty Law Center's website, the SPLC had counted 201 incidents of election-related harassment and intimidation across the country as of Friday, November 11 at 5pm. These range from anti-Black to anti-woman to anti-LGBT incidents. There were many examples of vandalism and epithets directed at individuals. Often times, types of harassment overlapped and many incidents, though not all, involved direct references to the Drumpf campaign. Every incident could not be immediately independently verified. Sorry, but this is fucking scary and dangerous. These people have been legitimized and this isn't going to get better unless there is a direct response from the government and then a direct action from law enforcement. But law enforcement has been demonstrably part of the problem for a while themselves. My heart rate hasn't slowed since Tuesday. I am nervous and worried for everyone of diverse backgrounds

?! There have been numerous attacks on queer, people of color, and women since he won the election. Even in my super progressive town, people in trucks are yelling "White is Right" in parking lots. This is scary. I am so beyond thankful that I am a straight white male at this point. Trump is not a fucking teddy bear and he is emboldening this behavior and making it acceptable. That is NOT okay by any stretch. He wants to get rid of the EPA and his vice president believes in torturing gay people to make the gay go away. This is repugnant. You all should be scared too. He could essentially sink us all with policies that don't address climate change. His EPA pick is a climate change denier. I am nauseated due to this. This has a very real potential of dire consequence.

? What's wrong with that meme? Seems rather mellow. I don't know if Bernie will be up for running again in four years, but maybe he can groom someone awesome for the job

Thank you! I kept trying to remember what that URL was and I couldn't figure it out. I knew he had a site somewhere

It's either some version of ECT - Squawk or someone straight stole the track.

We need ranked voting. A third party will never work without ranked choice voting. Which should be the rule. As well as popular vote. The electoral college is garbage. Fuck gerrymandering. This sucks.
