Death to fascists. Sometimes I write at https://spacetimetech.wordpress.com. Into nature, science, movies, music, video games, other kinds of art, etc. Married. Living on Hohokam land. Black/trans lives matter. He/Him.

I'm a big Surfers fan from way back, was talking to nostr:npub1h3xvd9q0ydd839nc24ahv26r2cuxqt043yqv20cdfufanh72u7ss7x6m7c about em & remembered wifey recently bought me this book that came out a couple years back, 'What Does Regret Mean'. The book's great, it details a lot of their early shows, and has some cool art.

On the right is a reprint of an early zine they made that came with the book. That's the back, because the cover is GROSS (as are its contents). It consists of crude black & white collage art on some colored pages from a mix of sources, including nasty medical things. 😂

Players and fans of Nethack, any idea what this blue thing is?

An ad for Crystal Quest on Game Boy from 1991. I first played Crystal Quest on a Mac Performa in the 90s, and had no idea it was on Game Boy until recently. But I had a chance to grab this version for cheap this past year, and it's a pretty good portable version!

On this day (November 4) in 1988, John Carpenter's THEY LIVE was released.

Did a recent rewatch of this recently and it holds up. Disturbingly accurate as to what's still going on in the world today (and maybe has always and will always go on in the world, with corruption, greed, etc.)

A fascinating, terrifying film.

So our town must be ridiculous or something, NO trick or treaters (yet, it's 7:48), basically like last year. Maybe the kids go to events? I don't get it. Used to be a LOT of kids. It has to be that the kids suck. Or that the parents suck. Or both. 🤣😂🤣

Happy 34th birthday to THIS masterpiece.

Pretty Hate Machine came out in 1989. So yeah, technically, nine inch nails are an 80s band.

🤣

Interesting line from it - the ghoul speaking to the rich people near the end says "Our projections show that by the year 2025, not only America but the entire planet will be under the protection and dominion of this 'power alliance'. The gains have been substantial both for ourselves, and for you-- the human power elite."

nostr:npub12ze486vfl7f9nk2vsan0u07lrd7tfn37f8djqeryl0uztsck8ltsyyhunm Thank you :). Yeah, I'm hoping to get more species soon, along with maybe a few millipedes.

nostr:npub1c7usj0a5hnm6wquxw2vkl7ea4exh793wx05f860var0grndlf84qz3s0ah millipedes are so cool too haha. Bugs are the best
