Anhedonia by Chelsea Wolfe-and Emma Ruth-Rundle

Beautiful haunting song.

Gave me similar vibes to parts of the Inland Empire and Mulholland Drive soundtrack.

There is a very specific song that it’s reminding me of — I just can’t remember what song it is. As soon as I remember I’ll update it here.

I think it is reminding me of “Llorando” — the French version of Crying from Mulholland Drive.

Are you being a fucking idiot?

I don’t often stick long posts on this god-awful surveillance website, but after hearing about some friends and family suffering, I didn’t want to hold back.

If you’re going into shops etc without a mask on when you should wear one, you’re a fucking idiot.
If you’re holding personal gatherings when you shouldn’t, you’re a fucking idiot.
If you’re reading this and about to dispute it because of some dumb ass reason because “well kids mix at school so what’s the difference”, you’re a fucking idiot.

There are people who are actually suffering, whether through loneliness, loss or struggling to battle this thing.

Boredom != Suffering.

Acting like a fucking idiot, thinking the rules don’t apply to you, whilst people fight to get rid of this virus, is no different to locking the front door with 50 locks whilst some prick leaves a window open.

Yes the government are inept and more concerned with profits over people’s lives. But you can’t use their stupidity as an excuse for your own fuckwittery.

Open your eyes and realise you live in a society.

Started working on a side project I’m calling “Pitch”. It’s an end to end encrypted website starter inspired by SiteJS by the Small Technology Foundation.

Got a basic vue app set up with the vue-cli but now can’t work out why my private key generator sometimes returns what I expect — a Uint8Array — and more often a mess of random characters.

Am I misunderstanding something I wonder?

Nymphetamine album — Cradle of Filth

Released in 2004, this is one of my favourite albums from my younger days.

Thanks to a work mate, my love for this band has been re-ignited. I have been listened to their albums lots over the past couple of weeks, but this one has stood out to me above most.

Possibly helped along from the nostalgia I feel for this album.

Stand out songs for me

  • Track 2 — Gilded Cunt
  • Track 3 — Nemesis
  • Track 5 — Nymphetamine overdose
