Dear white gay cismen who think you’re immune to misogyny because you’re not attracted to women,
Do queer female-identified people just scare the shit out of you or something?

fabric, n.: At first you feel the thread between you, and then, as the love grows, you feel it weaving into everything else.

Good morning, 13 pipe bombs were found across the street from where I work this morning, so we closed down early. Today is one two days in recent memory where I feel it’s appropriate to drink before 9am.

WHAT HAVE I DONE
I may have gone to the thrift store today… and I may have found a couple huge bags of yarn… and I may have been offered a fair price for the whole thing… and I may be able to cover my entire floor in yarn now…

Do you ever wonder why some music isn’t as much fun to listen to as it used to be? It’s because it is literally straining your ears to hear it.
This is a screen shot I took comparing the waveform for two releases of the SAME recording of the SAME song, “Terrible Lie” by Nine Inch Nails.
The top waveform came from the original 1989 CD release. It’s pleasing to hear. It’s dynamic. There are loud parts and there are quiet parts, and it lets you feel the music breathe.
The bottom waveform came from the remastered 2009 CD release celebrating the 20th anniversary. Sure, it’s louder, but take a look at the “brick wall” the signal runs into as it builds. When this happens, the music no longer kicks, it just all levels out. It’s flat. It’s boring. And it fatigues your ears very quickly.
This is a VERY common problem with most CDs recorded and (re)released over the last decade.
I won’t write up a 10 page rant here, I’ll just leave you with this brief introduction, and a link to the Loudness Wars page on wikipedia for further reading, if you’re interested.
Reblogged after seeing this post on Hank Green’s blog.
The Loudness War WP article is fascinating.

As someone who likes to switch between femme/butch presentation fairly often, it’s surprising (read: not that surprising) how differently I am treated and how much space people are comfortable with me taking up, not just in the general world, but in queer spaces when I am more femme-presenting. Like, in not a good way.
