Reminder that Jblow deletes his tweets after a short amount of time by his own policy, so people don't look at stuff months old and complain about them
🎶Who's been wacky since Braid came out 🎶
🎶 It was Jonathan all along 🎶
🎶 Who put cults the in Witness game 🎶
🎶 It was Jonathan all along 🎶
If you're all "I want to know more about his game but I don't want to send this guy money play it", definitely check the 41 minute video review that made Blow absolutely furious, "The Witness: A Great Game That You Shouldn't Play".

Looks like the IRS and I will be having a little chat this week. Image
I finally got home and looked at it. The money I got from Patreon (to pay taxes) was put into Paypal to pay the taxes, and the IRS is claiming that the money I got from Patreon was never reported. (It was reported, but as Paypal, not Patreon).
I mention this in detail in case other people who have Patreon income get hit with something like this; you are not alone.

There's something for everyone in the "Seems like good news.... wait a minute" crowd in the new Twitch announcements about partnering with the music industry.

My accounts got this letter from Twitch last week. You can hear Professor Farnsworth's GOOD NEWS EVERYONE
In summary, Twitch (Amazon) negotiated with one of the music industry groups to make it that there's now a special shim in between usual DMCA takedowns and anarchy; Twitch gets to Mall-Cop-Level issue a ticket saying "hey, you left Hootie and the Blowfish on in the background."
Since this is all made-up arrangement, it's hard to say how it'll be in practice, but basically it'll theoretically cause less situations where streamers (some of whom depend on the income) don't get knocked out for a DMCA strike.

I mean, if you're generous.

Mailchimp has been acquired by Intuit, one of the evilest of all financial companies. I'll be shutting down my mailing list on there.

Buried in all sorts of collections of zines, anarchist/collectivist mirrors, and everywhere else, the Internet Archive houses a whole bunch of fascinating documents on Squatting.

Besides the items themselves, the collections they live among are fascinating too.
Here's a 2010 book on squatting in Brisbane and Queensland, Australia. "SQUAT!"

PM Press has a whole range of books you can check out from their catalog, including "The City is Ours: Squatting and Autonomous Movements in Europe from the 1970s to the Present". Link here:

First month and change is paid for. I'll be getting the office! It'd be nice to have the six months socked away but I'm sure I can prove it was worth it through September. Here's some of what's to be done.
Munchy, the CD-ROM reading robot, will be at the ready for any CDs coming in, either from my backlog or from people sending them in. (Random boxes come to me all the time.) ImageImageImageImage
I've got literally hundreds of videotapes to rip, which I'm able to do in the background constantly. These range from obscure to historically one of a kind, to completely off the charts weird. ImageImageImageImage
