Social War Room Lounge v.230: Bikers reading Playgirls in the Woods edition

[Cubo de Sangre]

I actually don't hold grudges unless you get super personal or more importantly insult a marginalized group. Or you're England.

Well shit, now I'm bloody intrigued.

 

[Cubo de Sangre]

You play in a band?

No talent. But ran a few record labels.

 

[Milton_Gracie]

No talent. But ran a few record labels.

Which labels? Were you involved with Rykodisc?

 

[AgonyandIrony]

Well shit, now I'm bloody intrigued.

I don't really address people I don't like. I'll sometimes use them to sharpen my wit but that's about it. I'm pretty chill about someone pissing me off or me pissing them off.

I think the only thing you said to piss me off was minimizing my reasons for going to Rojava.

Either way, I get over things incredibly easy. Dogs bare teeth at their homies all the time.

 

[Cubo de Sangre]

Which labels? Were you involved with Rykodisc?

My own labels were Crowd Control Activities and Cubo de Sangre. I ran Relapse Records for awhile and created the sublabel Desolation House that Relapse marketed. No part of Ryko, but their dude running it around 2000 (Arthur Mann) was a bit of a mentor to the Relapse owner. Cool dude. Scored me some free Nick Drake and Morhpine records. Shit yeah.

Good to know. And fyi, I didn't minimize so much as I challenged you to strive for something else. Fine line, but different.

 

[Jack V Savage]

Yea that's a case where I don't see how the label makes any functional difference outside of semantic conversations. I also can't think of a case where "I don't see any good reason to believe this is true" can't be immediately followed up by "I can see good reasons to believe this isn't true" which leads me away from agnosticism.

Yeah, it doesn't. I'm kind of saying that. Anything you don't believe but are willing to grant is possible, you're kind of agnostic on in some sense. Really, when we're talking about beliefs that don't affect our day-to-day lives, "belief" is such a fuzzy term that those distinctions don't even really matter.

 

[AgonyandIrony]

But don't you inherently hold that the brave men and women of the internationalist battalion have been a net positive for the world?

I appreciate the selfishness of your desire to see me keep shitposting but one cannot realistically believe in the things I believe in and not go there.

This is different from any other leftist revolution, different from the Paris Communes or the Spanish Civil War, it's a working ethical revolution... To not be there would diminish my lifelong belief structure. Also by revolution I don't mean looking baller with an AK. It's also working in communal gardens to ensure no one goes hungry, it's to help teach Kurdish children English, which is a pathetic excuse for international legitimacy.

I'm just saying dude. This isn't a brash idea, had Trump not gleefully supported rape gangs and ethnic cleansing I would be over there picking tomatoes instead of considering the YPG but that's what happens when a failed state elects a reality television star to run the country lol.

lol. Love you.

No, I don't think your destiny is shitposting on Sherdog. I think you can contribute to the happiness of others with you culinary passion.

But even better....

Just checked out those labels and the Cubo website. Damn, You did some very interesting work! Im not so much into that kind of metal but I do appreciate it. Earlier today I was listening to some Steve Vai who used to play with Zappa who is my favorite musician and Zappa was with Rykodisc and that's why I mentioned that label. Cool to know I was talking to a guy here who was part of that scene!

Lol the controllers are plugged in

Well. Let me tell ya good homie, I was a head chef making horrid wages despite two years of school, an impressive international #2 win, and ten years of experience. I love cooking, because I could make hundreds of people happy and just lose myself for a moment. Comedy, I can make people happy and lose myself. You see a pattern here?

Bruh I was talking to an ex YPG fighter doing my research and he was like "make sure you know how to cook" you don't think I'm not going to fucking love making food for internationalists and the people in the city? Besides the YPG internationals on the front line against Turkey are a special kind, from what I've heard they're keeping a lot of people in the safer areas.

Again. There's a small chance I die if I go to Syria, and if that would happen (would ruin my book deals tbh) I would cause an international incident.

Honestly just promise me that you would crowdfund my mom to speak at my funeral, or DM me when I get close to going (I won't be able to post exact dated) and send me a plate carrier in a size small. You really should watch this documentary. The funerals of the internationalist martyrs is deep.

Don't worry. You know I'd have a Sherdog shout out at my funeral.

Also @Limbo Pete a Standing Rock Native american activist died over there. Check out 28:12 of that video. The honor of his true name being used is amazing.

Also solid music suggestions.

 

[weed]

damn, you know the store didn't have a big draw during its first weeks, when you see it stickied here too.

 

[Sara]

Lol I think Misfits are iconic and Hybrid Moments was amazing, my old band used to cover Where Eagles Dare, but a bit more shouty Oi! Style, but I've never been that big of a fan. Horrorbilly was the best thing to happen because of Misfits.

Also Morris was a hell of a singer.


I can respect that. I think Minor Threat is the superior band, but I attempt to try and avoid being too judgemental on what others enjoy artistically.


Broken homes wishing for broken bones.
the book made me want custom sickle and hammer spurs as an edgy early teen lol.

As to Rollins, are you talking about as a person? The dude has lived one of the most incredible lives out of anyone in modern history. That's just a fact.

how so?

Thanks, bro. If someone doesn't like Swordwielder then they're kinda scum to me. j/k.

Had a buddy who was the biggest Zappa fan. Never cared for his music but this dude had me convinced on voting for Frank if he ever ran for office.

PS: Ryko also hooked me up with Meat Puppets. Very nice.




Or perhaps...





And if we must insist...

 

[lsa]

Jesus fuck i got it, I'm stupid.

We have known it for years.

 

[Cubo de Sangre]

You see a pattern here?

Yeah. You've got a shitload of talent in desirable disciplines and somehow don't capitalize. Wish I had what you have.

Honestly just promise me that you would crowdfund my mom to speak at my funeral, or DM me when I get close to going (I won't be able to post exact dated) and send me a plate carrier in a size small.

Put me in your will (i.e. bequeath some recipes and jokes) and fuck yeah. I'll give a great speech about how some fuckin' cocksucker I never met enriched my life. Fuck yeah. Don't know anybody gives a shit about me being touched though.

 

[Ruprecht]

I thought nonkoreans was the main base of kpop? Every other girl under 20 is a kpop fan.

Only time I've encountered it was the young daughters of some Korean friends. Although it's not the sort of thing I expect anyone I know would admit to me if they were fans.

Meat Puppets... Back in the 90's for some reason, I really wanted to hear their music and would look at their CD's but they just ended up being one of those bands I never got to hear. Then I played that first video you linked and was trying to figure out why it sounded familiar, then played the Nirvana link and finally remembered that unplugged performance was the reason why I wanted to check out the Meat Puppets. Thanks for that! Only took about 30 years to finally hear the original lol

But yeah Zappa... You ever see this one? He was on CNN in 1986 talking about censorship in music.



Smart guy who I would vote for office too. However, in the CNN video link above, I disagree with him that lyrics are "just words"... I think words are powerful things and shouldn't be dismissed so easily. The warning labels on CDs about explicit lyrics was a good compromise for the whole music censorship thing.

 

[AgonyandIrony]

Again, this is sort of the issue I got into with other people concerning Rollins. "Natural talent" is very often autistic expression. It's been something I've always found fascinating. More often than not people me excel at things did to the panic based nature of that industry in question.

Lol imagine you flexing your income at my baller ass funeral by saying "I heard my sherbo was shot in the chest... Instead of a plate carrier I sent him a plate.. does anyone still have that plate?"

Once I commit to the YPG or the IC I'll probably start a crowdfund thing. Body armor is the main goal though. I'll be given a Kalashnikov as soon as I get there but I've honestly thought about requesting a mosin with a scope instead.

We will see of course. It depends highly on if Biden stops ethnic cleansing via a no fly zone. Turkey will of course will keep using ISIS fighters but they get rekt every time. Bombings are our main concern. They're destroying the international brigades.

Beating ISIS was once noble, but ISIS fighters raping YPJ women to death is fine, because Trump said so and Biden hasn't stopped it.

Another American induced genocide.
