    Someone literally just showed me the Facundo Cabral version, I'm partial to it due to the added lyrics at the beginning. Fantastic song regardless, it's incredible that it was written on a dime while drunk. Do share if you have more trovador stuff. I'm ironically super alienated from music in spanish, despite it being my first language.




  • private/self-hosted smtp servers i imagine. it just doesn't strike me that these email services that offer free inboxes would be any good for privacy concerns (proton mail, tutanota, whatever). but they're good to sign up for shit i suppose.






  • these takes are weird, Somerton was being cited as an authority on queer topics outside of the youboob sphere, which makes his takedown a bit more bigger than a beef between online types. dude was not only a plagiarist, he was also a known falsifier. it's just plain old academic dishonesty, the sort of thing that would make the news if this had happened on an actual campus. we're now in an era where bonafide pundits are taking fucking video essays at face value, B-list celebs like Neil Gaiman find out Hbomb uploaded a new video hours after it gets posted. Somerton's channel was going to be his platform towards building a movie studio ffs. we're in a new world where youtube is mainstream and things that happen there are now felt in meatspace.

    i bought the thing because the cans look kinda cool tbh, not even the tea shit, the sparkling water which is virtually indistinguishable from any other sparkling water brand except 3x more expensive. it's rare that i come across liquid death on the shelves anyway so it's not like something i'm going to keep buying. it's just a novelty item mostly.
