for some reason, writing in these li’l guys makes songwriting happen much faster. (@jessamyn sent a whole pack of ‘em to me a while ago, so thanks friend!)

been both deconstructing older songs and working on new songs lately; made some progress during an internet outage the other night.

this could be appended with a rant about how i’m so burnt out at work, burnt out with the algorithmic hellscape as a whole, and tired of everyone around me going whole-hog on LLM-injected everything, but i’ll save you the wrath for now

I have a friend who got an electric motorcycle a few years ago. It was so weird to see him get on it and it silently pull away.

People I know who ride motorcycles don't want quiet exhaust because it makes them even less noticeable by other drivers. I am curious if the electric motorcycles have worse safety records than internal combustion.
grantbarrett pro 4 hours ago
People who drive by my house don't want a quiet exhaust because it's part of their identity to be loud, to disturb the surroundings, and to be noticed. Late-night packs of riders aren't worried about much of anything except cops and maybe not them. I estimate that in a few-mile strip near me, every time they ride, their clamor affects more than 20,000 people.
urlnotfound pro 3 hours ago
@grantbarrett I don't associate with people like that. I am curious to know if quiet motorcycles are more dangerous to ride. If not, I believe we should end the various exclusions motorcycles have from exhaust noise laws. I don't ride motorcycles and wouldn't object if they banned them outright for health and safety concerns.
1f2frfbf pro 3 hours ago
@urlnotfound As s motorcycle rider of 20 some years, in my experience exhaust noise has zero bearing on safety. For one, exhaust noise only goes behind the rider, so it is only heard by people who can also see you. If you are concerned about safety on a motorcycle, you'll spend money on gear and skill classes, not pipes. People who say otherwise are lunatics with fragile egos.
homerj an hour ago
Yea, "loud exhausts are necessary" was just the asshole crowd's justification for their annoying exhausts.

Note that these folks also tend to be the ones not wearing helmets and riding with a t-shirt.

"exhaust noise only goes behind the rider"

Are you riding faster than the speed of sound, perchance?
mare pro 59 minutes ago
Modern cars (SUVs) are so well insulated against outside noises that emergency vehicles (ambulances) often ignored because they can’t be heard.
mare pro 44 minutes ago
Sound is important though. I ride an electric cargo bike and I have a big chunky chain in the box that rattles, so I make noise and don’t have to ring my bell if I want to pass slower cyclists on bike paths. If they don’t wear headphones they are aware I’m behind them and don’t get startled too much when I pass (at reasonable speed, I don’t ride very fast).
Just like electric cars that also generate ‘engine noise’ at lower speed to warn cyclists and pedestrians. Some brands of cars have really annoying ones, despite hiring movie score composers.(Hans Zimmer for BMW.)
1f2frfbf pro 37 minutes ago
@rogrtheshrubber Fair point... swap "mainly" for "only" and I stand by the statement. Sound goes everywhere in an atmosphere... but when you build directional sound cannons, it has a primary vector.

On This Day 108 Years Ago...

a young 18 year old boy was killed in the basement of a house in France by an artillery shell. That boy was my Great Uncle George and I've only recently learnt his story. It's a sad one, but it has some lovely bits too.

That's him in France, likely near Villers Bretonneux.

He was known as the Baby of The Battalion, so once I read that little titbit I had to know why and learn his story. I've been researching him for the past month or so and I've written down some of it here if you're keen

Below, under the water, on the submerged part of the land, is an eye; below, the fishing person's line leads into a mouth. The land is alive. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

RIP 1976 Dates

My late father brought home this bag of dates from a trip to Israel in 1976. It has been in the fridge since then. My entire life they lived in my parents’ fridge. Dad’s been dead more than two years now, and still they stayed in the fridge.
But Mom’s selling the house and one of the last things in her final clean out & pack-up was to take this pic and throw ‘em away.
A great story, and a picture will work just as well as the actual bag to tell it.

A brilliant, striking flower-inspired abstract painting. Bold red and orange "petals" unfold as waves of color, with violet, yellow and white emerging beneath. The red is especially bold, insistent, as if engorged with blood. Almost pulsing. Vibrant. Very *alive*.
