Isaiah 63 (This is about you. The beginning of the passage is an event that has not yet occurred. The rest is about a condition that has been since antiquity and remains to this day and will not conclude until the beginning piece has occurred. In the middle is a proclamation of the then-coming salvation that the Christ would deliver to all Israelites--and completed doing so.)
[Part 1 of 2. Part 2 in comments.]
`Who [is] this coming from Edom? With dyed garments from Bozrah? This that is honourable in his clothing, Travelling in the abundance of his power?' -- `I, speaking in righteousness, mighty to save.'
2 `Wherefore [is] thy clothing red? And thy garments as treading in a wine fat?'
3 -- `A wine-press I have trodden by myself, And of the peoples there is no one with me, And I tread them in mine anger, And I trample them in my fury, Sprinkled is their strength on my garments, And all my clothing I have polluted.
4 For the day of vengeance [is] in my heart, And the year of my redeemed hath come.
>Revelation 19 >11 And I saw the heaven having been opened, and lo, a white horse, and he who is sitting upon it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness doth he judge and war, >12 and his eyes [are] as a flame of fire, and upon his head [are] many diadems -- having a name written that no one hath known, except himself, >13 and ***he is arrayed with a garment covered with blood,*** and his name is called, The Word of God.
5 And I look attentively, and there is none helping, And I am astonished that there is none supporting, And give salvation to me doth mine own arm. And my wrath -- it hath supported me.
6 And I tread down peoples in mine anger, And I make them drunk in my fury, And I bring down to earth their strength.
7 The kind acts of Yahweh I make mention of, The praises of Yahweh, According to all that Yahweh hath done for us, And the abundance of the goodness to the house of Israel, That He hath done for them, According to His mercies, And according to the abundance of His kind acts.
>The House of Israel. You. Your brother nations. Not non-Israelites invited in long ago--with which came punishment, having them rise to be priests and governmental leaders. Christ gathered Israelites away from them. Today those non-Israelites that were living and ruling are called jews, holding dearly to their false title, false covenant, and false entitlement, exactly as real as blacks claiming they're Egyptian. They are "those who say they are jews and are not, but do lie." >You are of the Israelites. God kept His promise and made us many nations. And He kept true to His warning. He scattered Israelites out of the land through centuries, through the Assyrians and the Babylonians, into Europe and North Africa and eastern Asia and eventually North America, making us more numerous despite disobedience.
8 And He saith, Only My people they [are], Sons -- they lie not, and He is to them for a saviour.
9 In all their distress [He is] no adversary, And the messenger of His presence saved them, In His love and in His pity He redeemed them, And He doth lift them up, And beareth them all the days of old.
>God saved us--and not nons. >All Israelites--the vast majority in antiquity being descendants who had bled off and become other nations--had still been married to God, bound through a law they'd never known. >God was "like a husband" to the unfaithful Bride (the vowed nation-state). The Bride was adulterous. Adultery is punishable by death according to the vow / the law. >Romans 7 >Are ye ignorant, brethren -- for to those knowing law I speak -- that the law hath lordship over the man as long as he liveth? >2 for the married woman to the living husband hath been bound by law, and ***if the husband may die***, she hath been free from the law of the husband; >3 so, then, the husband being alive, an adulteress she shall be called if she may become another man's; and if the husband may die, she is free from the law, so as not to be an adulteress, having become another man's. >4 So that, my brethren, ye also were made dead to the law ***through the body of the Christ*** [...] >This is why it was necessary and sufficient that Christ died for our salvation. He is Yahweh incarnate. He was the Husband.

I tried to set up with the reamper box but cant find the right cables. I was going to use the media player into it but its XLR in only on this reamper. So I had to figure out another solution.
Then I remembered my Ditto looper lets me drop sounds into it. I'm pretty experienced with mic placement now after 30 years of doing this LOL, so dropped the 2 samples click into it via USB. And this actually worked out better than reamping/excess cabling....
I'm still mulling over selling on these cheap mics I bought, so its an opportunity to create an IR. I've seen other people use kick mics on cabs for stoner rock and doom metal, so decided to generate an IR from that. These usually blend well with mid-heavy mics like sm57 or e906.
OK.I relented and bought an official SM57 for my Birthday. It arrived today after a small wait. So maybe I'll do some IRs with this too, or find a mixer and multi mic.
All stuff I can try in the future.
I'm using the Hempback here but have a Ruby and a Black Gold to try later too... plus the micro practice amps.
I tend to focus the mic close on the edge of the dust cap, but have also done a couple at 45 degrees towards the same position.
I realised my radiator in my room is creating a kind of slap-back reverberation too. My solution is to place a fleece over it and this seems to have made the file size smaller by 3-400 samples.
Typically I'm getting 700ish samples length of sound from the 2 samples source.
..I've yet to actually test these either in the DAW IR loader, or in the Helix, but this feels closer to what I wanted to achieve when I buggered up the Behringer Bass Vamp Pro experiment.
Had a quick test in Ableton with an IR loader. I've only created 6 IRs so far but they all work. Typical Hempback dark and thick sounds. Almost vintage guitar record sounds too.
Feeling pleased with myself.. ....now to create more!
absolutely i support that. you should ask @limneticvillains about how he used to get his drum samples lol. one of the best working class musician stories i've ever heard.
@limneticvillains your drum productions are killer good. between that and the one pic of you playing drums, i always assumed they were recorded/tracked live!

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn? Well, that's alright because I like the way it hurts Just gonna stand there and hear me cry? Well, that's alright because I love the way you lie I love the way you lie
I can't tell you what it really is I can only tell you what it feels like And right now, there's a steel knife in my windpipe I can't breathe, but I still fight while I can fight As long as the wrong feels right, it's like I'm in flight High off of love, drunk from my hate It's like I'm huffing paint, and I love her the more I suffer, I suffocate And right before I'm about to drown, she resuscitates me She fuckin' hates me, and I love it
"Wait! Where you going?" "I'm leaving you" "No, you ain't, come back" We're running right back, here we go again It's so insane 'cause when it's going good, it's going great I'm Superman with the wind at his back, she's Lois Lane But when it's bad, it's awful I feel so ashamed, I snapped, "Who's that dude?" I don't even know his name I laid hands on her, I'll never stoop so low again I guess I don't know my own strength
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn? Well, that's alright because I like the way it hurts Just gonna stand there and hear me cry? Well, that's alright because I love the way you lie I love the way you lie I love the way you lie
You ever loved somebody so much You can barely breathe when you're with 'em? You meet and neither one of you even know what hit 'em Got that warm fuzzy feeling, yeah, them chills, used to get 'em Now you're getting fuckin' sick of looking at 'em You swore you'd never hit 'em, never do nothing to hurt 'em Now you're in each other's face, spewin' venom in your words when you spit 'em You push, pull each other's hair, scratch, claw, bit 'em Throw 'em down, pin 'em So lost in the moments when you're in 'em
It's the rage that took over, it controls you both So they say, yeah, best to go your separate ways Guess that they don't know you 'cause today, that was yesterday Yesterday is over, it's a different day Sound like broken records playin' over, but you promised her Next time, you'll show restraint You don't get another chance Life is no Nintendo game, but you lied again Now you get to watch her leave out the window Guess that's why they call it windowpane
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn? Well, that's alright because I like the way it hurts Just gonna stand there and hear me cry? Well, that's alright because I love the way you lie I love the way you lie I love the way you lie
Now I know we said things, did things that we didn't mean And we fall back into the same patterns, same routine But your temper's just as bad as mine is You're the same as me, when it comes to love, you're just as blinded Baby, please come back, it wasn't you, baby, it was me Maybe our relationship isn't as crazy as it seems Maybe that's what happens when a tornado meets a volcano All I know is I love you too much to walk away, though
Come inside, pick up your bags off the sidewalk Don't you hear sincerity in my voice when I talk? Told you this is my fault, look me in the eyeball Next time I'm pissed, I'll aim my fist at the drywall "Next time? There will be no next time" I apologize, even though I know it's lies I'm tired of the games, I just want her back I know I'm a liar, if she ever tries to fucking leave again I'ma tie her to the bed and set this house on fire
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn? Well, that's alright because I like the way it hurts Just gonna stand there and hear me cry? Well, that's alright, because I love the way you lie I love the way you lie I love the way you lie

@dgar Love this! It’s wonderful how she supports your efforts even though it’s not her style of music, and gracious of you to write a song for her in return. I feel like I can picture her from hearing the song, too. This is heartwarming. Cheers 🤘
I used to work with a lady who would always take an interest in my music. She’d ask how our jam sessions went and if I’d recorded anything new. But, anytime I had something new, she’d listen to it through, and then tell me that it’s “not her kind of music”. It always bemused me that she would take such an interest if she didn’t like what I was making. I decided to write her a song that she would enjoy. Music was being streamed at work all the time, so I knew what sort of songs she was into. Classic Rock. Australian Pub Rock in particular. She was a single mum in her 50’s, a strong, hard woman, an Aussie battler. I wrote Proud Woman in a weekend, and recorded it at home. A mate I regularly jam with did the vocals and when it was done, I uploaded it and shared it with her when I got to work.
She liked it. The experience taught me the value of an audience of one. The focus on writing a song for one person, with the aim that they - that person in particular - enjoys it, gave me a different perspective on the whole creative process.
This is a copypasta of a previous toot, adding the Tidal link for the track. Love all the support from everyone boosting and following along! 🫶 Let’s get this one trending!! ☝️😊🤘
What a great song. It may be a function of my generation and being pretty, but I was often treated like an object. Your song captures how real, fierce, and capable women are. It’s the way women should be seen.

Your story doves tales into another one I read about band (think it was REM) . Not so much about writing for one person but still writing with someone else in mind can influence positively. They said live shows, even poorly attended ones, gave them real time feedback on how songs was working to improve them over time.
I’ve been an independent musician for 30+ years, and I have written many songs for one person numerous times.
I feel that because I’ve come across and known so many special people in my life, that: A. They deserve to feel special B. It’s important to me to let them know how inspirational and supportive they’ve been for me.

4 Non Blondes' "What's Up" is an empowering rock anthem that resonates with themes of frustration and self-discovery. Released in 1992, the song features powerful vocals from Linda Perry and a catchy chorus that has made it a timeless classic.

Lyrics: 25 years of my life and still I'm trying to get up that great big hill of hope For a destination I realized quickly when I knew I should That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man For whatever that means
And so I cry sometimes When I'm lying in bed Just to get it all out What's in my head And I, I am feeling... a little peculiar.
And so I wake in the morning And I step outside And I take a deep breath and I get real high And I scream from the top of my lungs What's going on?
And I say: Hey yeah yeaaah! Hey yeah yeah. I said hey What's going on?
And I say: Hey yeah yeaaah! Hey yeah yeah. I said hey What's going on?

John Denver's "Take Me Home, Country Roads" is a beloved folk-country classic that evokes a sense of nostalgia and longing for home. Released in 1971, the song features heartfelt lyrics and a memorable melody, capturing the beauty of rural life and the comfort of familiar places. Its enduring popularity has made it an anthem for many, celebrating the spirit of the countryside.
Lyrics: Almost heaven, West Virginia, Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River Life is old there, older than the trees, younger than the mountains, growing like a breeze
Country roads, take me home, to the place I belong West Virginia, mountain mamma, take me home, country roads
All my memories gather round her, miner's lady, stranger to blue water Dark and dusty, painted on the sky, misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye
Country roads, take me home, to the place I belong West Virginia, mountain mamma, take me home, country roads
I hear her voice in the morning hour, she calls me, the radio reminds me of my home far away And driving down the road I get a feeling that I should have been home yesterday, yesterday
Country roads, take me home, to the place I belong West Virginia, mountain mamma, take me home, country roads
Everybody singing…
Country roads, take me home, to the place I belong West Virginia, mountain mamma, take me home, country roads
Take me home, down country roads Take me home, down country roads
All my memories gather round her, miner's lady, stranger to blue water. Dark and dusty, painted on the sky, misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye. Country roads, take me home to the place I belong. West Virginia, mountain momma, take me home, country roads.

How can you see into my eyes like open doors? Leading you down into my core where I've become so numb Without a soul (soul), my spirit's sleeping somewhere cold Until you find it there and lead it back home
(Wake me up) wake me up inside (I can't wake up) wake me up inside (Save me) call my name and save me from the dark (Wake me up) bid my blood to run (I can't wake up) before I come undone (Save me) save me from the nothing I've become
Now that I know what I'm without, you can't just leave me Breathe into me and make me real Bring (bring) me (me) to life
(Wake me up) wake me up inside (I can't wake up) wake me up inside (Save me) call my name and save me from the dark (Wake me up) bid my blood to run (I can't wake up) before I come undone (Save me) save me from the nothing I've become
Bring me to life I've been living a lie There's nothing inside Bring me to life
Frozen inside without your touch, without your love Darling, only you are the life among the dead All this time, I can't believe I couldn't see Kept in the dark, but you were there in front of me I've been sleeping a thousand years, it seems Got to open my eyes to everything Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul Don't let me die here, there must be something more Bring me to life
(Wake me up) wake me up inside (I can't wake up) wake me up inside (Save me) call my name and save me from the dark (Wake me up) bid my blood to run (I can't wake up) before I come undone (Save me) save me from the nothing I've become
Bring me to life I've been living a lie (bring me to life) There's nothing inside Bring me to life

Don’t get me wrong: I really do think there’s an employment market threat from gen AI.
Huge swaths of white-collar jobs — particularly entry-level jobs — have long been mostly bullshit (in the Office Space sense that what matters is the •appearance• of progress, and not actual results). Automated bullshit generators certainly threaten those jobs.
AI can certainly generate TPS reports that nobody reads.
And there’s an even larger segment of jobs where the job truly is, “Eh, autopilot is good enough, just repeat the obvious pattern, it only needs to be right sometimes. Better than the garbage we’re replacing!”
Something that detects and randomly regenerates contextually relevant patterns certainly could displace some of that work. As long as it doesn’t really matter if it’s wrong, just as long as it sort of has the correct shapes…well, sure, LLMs!
I once worked at a company that sold industry-specific core-business software to deep-pocketed corps who couldn’t / wouldn’t / shouldn’t roll their own. I got into a discuss with my manager about whether our products were essentially — my words — a hoax.
Me: “Look, our products are riddled with bugs and holes. They’re nearly impossible to deploy, manage, and maintain. They frequently don’t even work •at all• on the putative release date, and we sell the mop-up as expensive ‘consulting.’”
As the article says, all of this especially threatens entry-level work. In so many worlds, we keep new people busy with something a bit mechanical where the results don’t really matter so that they can get acculturated, get socially integrated in the company and the industry, learn the lingo, learn the business. (If we get robots to do all our “wax on! wax off!” then how do you train the next Karate Kid?)
So yes: the job threat from BS generators is real, because jobs are full of BS.
“This technology is so dangerous that it will wipe out 20% of the job economy! turn into Skynet! turn into a vengeful god!!”
…all of that is not well-rooted prediction. It’s marketing hype. It’s marketing being laundered through gullible reporters and disguised as news. It’s CEO fanfic.
It’s marketing that targets executives and investors who are eyeballs-deep in the cost-cutting cult, for whom that these doom narratives are just pure crack.
“Hardly anyone is paying attention?!?” Bullshit. The executive class can’t shut up about this. They send all-company emails about it, with drool visibly running down their chins.
Right now, there is a •preposterous• amount of money devoted to propping up an AI industry that is causing massive environmental damage, sits on unethical foundations, is enriching some of the worst people on earth, nurses a whole mountain of fascist fantasies (hachyderm.io/@inthehands/11455…), and isn’t even profitable.
For all those reasons, I’m really, really careful about what kind of hype I share. And — this is important! — I’m careful about what kind of hype I allow to get inside my own head.
The details could use some more subtle teasing out, but in broad strokes, the current AI hype scratches a bunch of authoritarian itches for the oligarchs:
- threatens labor
- consolidates wealth
- consolidates power
- both justifies and powers a Pan…
Whatever LLMs and gen AI may or may not •actually• be good for, whatever jobs they may or may not actually reshape or displace, right now we’re in the middle of a bubble. The sheer amount of money involved makes it almost impossible to think clearly about this, much less have a useful public discussion. Even well-founded hopes and fears for the tech fuel a fire that I very much do not want to fuel.
So look, if you talk to me about the job threat from the things we currently call “AI,” well…
…if where you’re going with that is “The concentration of wealth is an existential crisis! Establish UBI! 99% marginal tax rate! Capital gains tax! Wealth tax! Abolish billionaires!” then yes, I’m •all• ears. My pitchfork is already sharpened.
But if where you’re going is “Get in on it now while you still can! Buy the AI vendors’ products! Drink radium for that youthful glow!” then…kthanksbye. I am not going to be a vector for your marketing propaganda, no matter how agitated you are.
P.S. Hat tip to @pluralistic for the radium reference. He was talking about other things (pluralistic.net/2024/09/19/jus…), but the whole vibe of that “Radium will magically restore you to health!” era is by far the best historical comparison I’ve found from the current froth-mouthed AI hype.
»Military intervention must be used to stop the #genocide in #Gaza. In Kosovo, Nato intervened in 1999 after mass killings and the threat of further ethnic cleansing. Why aren’t Gazans being protected in the same way?« by Ahmad Ibsais #Israel theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
»Bezalel Smotrich, the Israeli finance minister, declared last week: “We are destroying everything in Gaza, the world isn’t stopping us.” So let’s say what must be said, without apology: military intervention to defend Gaza is not only justified – it is required. It is humanitarian. It is overdue. Israel must be stopped.«
»A nofly zone must be set up to prevent further aerial bombing; & a coalition of willing states should come together to form a corridor to 1) end Israel’s colonial mechanism that is set to take 65% of Gaza’s land & 2) allow for the immediate dispersal of humanitarian aid. Military intervention should not merely be aimed at pausing the killing – it should be used to protect Palestinians’ right to exist as a people, with dignity, sovereignty & full unconditional control over their land & futures.«

RUN DMC's "King Of Rock" is a groundbreaking hip-hop anthem that solidified the group's status as pioneers in the genre. Released in the mid-1980s, the track blends rap with rock elements, showcasing their innovative style. Its bold lyrics and energetic beat have made it a classic, influencing countless artists and shaping the future of hip-hop.
Lyrics: I'm the king of rock, there is none higher Sucker MCs should call me sire To burn my kingdom, you must use fire I won't stop rockin' 'til I retire
Now we rock the party and come correct Our cuts are on time and rhymes connect Got the right to vote and will elect And other rappers can't stand us, but give us respect
They called us and said we're gettin' iller There's no one chiller It's not Michael Jackson and this is not "Thriller" As one def rapper, I know I can hang I'm Run from Run-D.M.C., like Kool from Kool and the Gang Roll to the rock, rock to the roll D.M.C. stands for devastating mic control You can't touch me with a ten-foot pole And I even made the devil sell me his soul
Now we crash through walls, cut through floors Bust through ceilings and knock down doors And when we're on the tape, we're fresh out the box You can hear our sound for blocks and blocks For every living person we're a purple treat It's me and D.M.C., Jay, where's the beat?
Now we're the baddest of the bad, the coolest of the cool I'm D.M.C., I rock and roll, I'm DJ Run, I rock and rule It's not a Trick or Treat and it's not a April Fool It's all brand new, never ever old school
You got the music in your body and you can't comprehend When your mind won't wiggle and your knees will bend Music ain't nothin' but a people's jam It's DJ Run-D.M.C. rockin' without a band
Now I walked on ice and never fell I spent my time in a plush hotel I stood on many stages, held many mics Take airplane flights, at huge heights So all you sucker MCs, you gotta say please 'Cause when he jumps high, I'm pulling down weeds Got a song so strong, it's knocking down trees It isn't hard to believe it's Run-D.M.C.?
I am from, around the way And Run goes to school, every day And Jay plays the records he has to play And we get down with no delay, hey! I rock the party with the words I speak And Run says the rhymes that are unique And Jay cuts the records every day of the week And we are the crew that can never be beat
So don't try to diss me, try to be my friend 'Cause if you do, you'll get yours in the end The rhymes we say, shall set a trend Because a devestating rap is what we send
Every jam we play, we break two needles There's three of us but we're not The Beatles My name is Darryl, you can call him D You can call me Darryl Mack, or you can call him D.M.C. People always ask, "D.M.C., what does it mean?" D's for never dirty, MC for mostly clean
Like we said before, we rock hardcore I'm DJ Run, I can scratch, I'm D.M.C., I can draw And now we got the knack, to attract Our rhyme's an aphrodisiac We'll reign on your brain and rock your knot When it comes to rock, give it all we got To be MCs, we got what it takes
Let the poppers pop and the breakers break We're cool, cool cats, it's like that That's the way it is, so stay the hell back We're causin' hard times, for sucker M 'Cause they don't make no songs like these Period!

Then I remembered my Ditto looper lets me drop sounds into it. I'm pretty experienced with mic placement now after 30 years of doing this LOL, so dropped the 2 samples click into it via USB. And this actually worked out better than reamping/excess cabling....

in reply to The Tired Horizon • • •OK.I relented and bought an official SM57 for my Birthday. It arrived today after a small wait. So maybe I'll do some IRs with this too, or find a mixer and multi mic.
All stuff I can try in the future.
I'm using the Hempback here but have a Ruby and a Black Gold to try later too... plus the micro practice amps.

in reply to The Tired Horizon • • •I tend to focus the mic close on the edge of the dust cap, but have also done a couple at 45 degrees towards the same position.
I realised my radiator in my room is creating a kind of slap-back reverberation too. My solution is to place a fleece over it and this seems to have made the file size smaller by 3-400 samples.
Typically I'm getting 700ish samples length of sound from the 2 samples source.

in reply to The Tired Horizon • • •Had a quick test in Ableton with an IR loader. I've only created 6 IRs so far but they all work. Typical Hempback dark and thick sounds. Almost vintage guitar record sounds too.
Feeling pleased with myself..
....now to create more!

in reply to benda • • •@benda yeah wondering if I could effectively pay to use one for a day or two and have someone come and pick it back up
Cheeky way to get another load of IRs 🤭
