hot take: having a fastball lobbed at your nuts is, for most people who have them, a bad experience!!

"he has come to the quite rational realization that we have a limited time on this earth and there are better things to do than having a fastball lobbed at your nuts." From the "I Love Getting Demolished By Souls Games" article on Aftermath for Hater Week

Aphex Twin: creates a solo piano piece so beautiful, affecting, and historically significant that it would make Chopin openly weep also Aphex Twin:

The aphex twin song Avril 14th off of Drukqs

The lyrics of the Aphex Twin song Milkman, which are mostly "I would like some milk from the milk man's wife's tits"

anyway you can buy this sticker from me, feel free to DM me or whatever reject phone thank you

My hand holding stickers I designed that say 'reject phone.' The bubble letter words 'reject phone' split a nondescript smartphone in half revealing the toxic goop inside. 'ghost' is on one half and 'down' is alongside my evil cartoon face on the other.

Madonna can have a little fetishization of me as a treat (for me)

It's one of my favorite things I've ever written and grows ever more important to me as I've continually dealt with new levels and kinds of grief this year. Rockin my ancient Illinoise shirt today to celebrate. Please check out the piece, hope you like it :)

Dear reader he is not exaggerating

Will LaPorte@ghostdown· Jul 3

I designed these. dm me if you want one. :)

My hand holding a stack of stickers. On them is a phone split in half with green goo coming out, with the words 'ghost down' and a crude sketch of my face on the phone, and 'reject phone' in pinkish purple bubble letters between the halves

This SpongeBob frame with its necessary caption context didn't exist so I made it

Will LaPorte@ghostdown· May 8

why are they framing this like it's a good move. Why do they constantly launder this administration's harmful bullshit. cancel your fucking new york times subscription

not to use the article confirming people's biases to confirm some biases of my own, but this seems like the most important bit

Screenshot from the WIRED article:

"The idea of a PR firm creating dozens of social media accounts to push new music or artists may seem slightly sinister, in part because the very idea of an account arguably presumes some sort of independent consciousness behind it. But is it really any different, in essence, than dozens of music blogs republishing the same press releases pushing that same music and those same bands? These tactics follow a golden rule of so much online discourse, which another of Chaotic Good's founding partners summed up in that Billboard interview: 'Everything on the internet is fake.'

For her part, McLamb says that these sorts of new, extremely online marketing campaigns are 'no more or less nefarious than anything else that's been going on in the music business since the dawn of time.' Asked if she would ever consent to these sorts of trend-simulating marketing tactics promoting her own music, McLamb is unequivocal: 'I would absolutely take part in a narrative or UGC campaign.'

I made this when my partner Em didn't like Tenet (one of my fav movies ever). They requested I make the person in the back cute

a dude thinking "damn...we live in a twilight world fr." and looking at the dolled up person behind them and thinking "that mf do NOT live in a twilight world"
