The Pledge Drive continues! If you enjoy this blog, and can afford it, please click on the “donate” button below! Thanks!
This stream is here to burble and kick ass and it’s all out of burble!
Well, ok, that doesn’t really make sense. It has lots of burble left. In any case, enjoy, because I sure as hell am going to!
This PLEDGE DRIVE CAPYBARA is enjoying a nice sit-down in some water.
Oh hey, I’ve played the 11 hour bird song track from this series to my cats to calm ’em down and give them something to think besides tearing around the house.
Does a birdsong track really calm cats? Doesn’t it just mean “food which I can’t find” to them?
Ah, thank you David. Our Roger troll is irritating the heck out of me right now, so bad I almost went double-Fluttershy on him. This is very nice.
(Kinda gotta go pee now, though)
I miss so much when I go offline due to work-related stuff. 😛

Bluegrass covers of popular songs are pretty relaxing…just…putting that out there…
@Jack,
though i find this one more relaxing:
Hey, I’ve been wanting to start commenting again. This year has been absurd and I needed a break; I never expected the kind of wretched asshats routinely featured on this blog to make it into the mainstream political discourse. Suddenly here I am discussing the alt-right, 4/8chan and Milo Y with my dad O_o
Oh yeah, and I’m now officially a member of the Children of Atom (because them being featured in Far Harbor was why I got Far Harbor), especially after they gave me a ridiculously overpowered super sledgehammer for my Melee-only character.
Oh, and ace attorney gifs are now in season? YAY!

Doc watson didn’t do much in the way of pop covers, but he sure played good bluegrass:

A few weeks back, I read an article online (no longer remember where) that took a critical look from an intersectional feminist perspective at some of my favourite tv programmes. It wasn’t comfortable. After reading it, I felt slightly differently about them. And myself. And Gamergate. Bear with me…
Having had that experience, I have a window of empathy into Gamergate that I didn’t before. Having read that article, I enjoy, what I used to enjoy, slightly less. My eyes have been opened. But… here’s the thing, or things.
a) The reason the critique upsets me is because I agree with the critique. I agree with the underlying philosophy and I agree the critique applies. Neither of these things are true of GG. Unless they’ve buried it very deep down.
b) My anger FWIW is directed at the creators of the tv programme (although I recognise hindsight is 20:20) and at myself for not noticing these problems until they were pointed out. GGs direct their anger at the critics. For being smarter? If they disagree with the criticism, why should it matter?
So that’s my little revelation of the week. Hope everyone else here is having a good week.
In good news, I finally got my new ID earlier. Hopefully that will reduce future problems with employers.
Congrats Dalillama!
@Dalillama
I’ll admit, I was listening to my comfort soundtrack of Oh, Brother, Where Art Thou? and Spotify kept throwing me other songs so I just decided to look up a plain ol’ bluegrass playlist and found an entire one dedicated to covers so, I mean, throw any bluegrass my way. Outlaw country, folk and honky tonk, too.
You link any of that new country stuff, however, shame on you. Shame on all of you.
Also, congrats on your new ID! I hear the paperwork part is daunting but it makes everything 500% smoother.
Have more bluegrass covers in celebration!

Been meaning to post these:
Can anyone tell me how to embed videos? I somehow managed to embed them a few times.
THIS STREAM IS OUTTA CONTROL! THIS BROOK IS BABBLING MORE THAN TRUMP IN A DEBATE!

Awesome!

@Kit Cowley
Ha! ?
@Handsome Jack
in that case, I categorically recommend every track Doc Watson ever laid down, because if bluegrass has a patron diety, he’s it. I’ll have more specific stuff later on.
Here’s a full hour of the Wailin’ Jennys:
And some David Olney:
@Dalillama
I’m already in love with the percussion from The Wailin’ Jennys, thank you~<3
