Covert conversion therapy by setting you up with the absolute worst humanity has to offer.

Most of the time, if I'm listening to anything, it's a playlist of Boards of Canada on shuffle - usually while I work.

Otherwise, my music taste is pretty stalled these days wrt new music. Unwound got back together and I saw a couple of their shows, one in LA and another in Austin. The Blood Brothers also reunited and I have a ticket to see them in Dec. Melt-Banana just released a new album I haven't listened to yet.

My friend's band, Yuppie Killer, released their discography on streaming sites. They're a hardcore punk band of expats in South Korea from 2012-2017.

I play in a band, Constellation, and we're sending our first album to be mastered this week. Kind of throwback to 90's post-hardcore like Fugazi (yeah, we got cowbell) and Drive Like Jehu. Really excited about it.

I was already saying no after reading this opening line:

Let's go on a journey—a journey of pure speculation So, please give me a little cognitive latitude...

I doubt that would even pass an Eagle Scout project proposal review.

oh they can be 100% sincere about their humanitarian ideals. But investor RTO, need for revenue streams to cover expenses, general market forces - these will always outstrip and determine the final cause of a company. Ideals don't matter, eventually, at most, PR in the service of expanding market share, intentionally or not.
