The examples of good closing tracks are indeed a better argument than “I’ve been in the industry since 1995, the golden age of vinyl”.

If a song wasn’t good enough that it required being put in a “second-rate” position on the album, why would they be putting it on the album at all?

You claim to have been in the industry, and you never heard of selling albums full of crappy songs on the strength of the singles? Boy you have plenty of stuff to learn yet.

News flash: vinyl records existed before 1995.

Cool, but that doesn’t help every other political-cartoon artist who’s not Ben Garrison, does it?

If you seriously don’t understand how bacteria get in your innards, you should probably spend a couple hours reading about how your own body works, what with it being your sole manifestation in this finite life.

Firstly, indeed you’re likely to ingest some bacteria with crappy food from a shitty food place. Now guess which regions and social stratums are likely to buy prepared food more than others, instead of cooking at home, while you’re registered on feddit.uk.

Secondly, people occupying the same space have been shown to exchange gut bacteria pretty quickly. Unless you’re exclusively working from your own home, get ready to catch some helicobacter pylori or escherichia coli now and then.

P.S. It’s also possible for bacteria or parasites to re-infect you by being around your ass, mainly by remaining on your fingers after your scratch your bum. For which the cure is, don’t scratch your ass with your fucking fingers.

That depends on the quality of the turntable and the vinyl, and the rotation speed. Early on, the quality wasn’t enough for dense stamping, so vinyls played at 78 rpm. With time, 45 and 33 rpm became possible as the tech improved, allowing for longer play times per vinyl.

Regardless, from what I’ve heard, back in the day the producers took care to put more demanding tracks on the outside, which led to the phenomenon of CDs suddenly having some busy and loud tracks in the middle of the album.

It’s hardstyle for the most part.

I’ve heard that good songs were put on the outside and the shittier ones were relegated to the inside since the quality is worse. But a vinyl has two sides to it, which lead to the phenomenon that when listening to a CD, there was suddenly a big loud and busy number right in the middle of the album, after a lull.

US politics communities are pretty damn loud.

But you see, not all of them voted for Trump, so it’s unfair of you to demand anything of them and ostracize them all as one.

Unlike when USians spout their opinion of other countries, being totally justified in anything they say.

It’s not a political cartoon if there’s not a label on every relevant detail.

Looks like someone threw in a Unicode RTL marker, making the text go right-to-left.

Sounds like my method of adding sauce to spaghetti right after cooking is considerably simpler. Seeing as I’d want that sauce when I’m eating later anyway.

Someone on Reddit mentioned once that their friend puts sauce on spaghetti, mixes the sauce in, and then rinses the spaghetti with water so only a hint of the sauce taste remains.

How the hell would you store unsauced spaghetti without it all sticking together?

If you can eat whatever you want, be glad. Once gut microbiome is damaged, it’s pretty much irreparable without fecal transplants (and even that sounds like it only helps the intestines, not the stomach).

That said, kefir helps a lot, but only short-term.

Russia already condemned the US’ actions in this.

Just to check, you know that this ‘sweet summer child’ is the one who came up with ‘enshittification’ in the first place? He’s been on this topic for decades now. But you think that your drive-by comment is smarter than the man who’s been sniffing out hidden trends all his career and was consistently ahead of the curve.

Coincidentally, Doctorow is the one who coined ‘enshittification’ originally.

I mean, LAN parties weren’t much easier.

I also like to breathe hot leaf aroma, though from a different leaf.
